Install the Component Bundle

Use this procedure to update the Oracle Database software. Once the Component Bundle is installed, the latest Oracle Database binaries are installed and available for configuration of VMs.

This procedure is also required when you update the MCMU component as described in Update the MCMU Component (CLI). Install the Component Bundle after updating the MCMU component.

  1. Ensure that you have downloaded the latest Component Bundle.

    See Check for and Obtain the Latest Updates.

  2. Log into the compute node 1 MCMU CLI as the primary admin such as mcinstall.

    See Log in to the MCMU CLI.

  3. Unzip the zip files.
    % cd /var/opt/oracle.minicluster/patch
    % /bin/unzip '*zip'
  4. Identify the version_no in the names of the tar files.

    In this example, the version_no is 1.1.21.4. Your version_no might be different. Make note of the version_no for the next step.

    % ls
    MC-README.txt
    mc-1.1.21.4-sfw.tar.ad
    mc-1.1.21.4-sfw.tar.aa
    mc-1.1.21.4-sfw.tar.ae
    mc-1.1.21.4-sfw.tar.ab
  5. Extract the tar Files.

    This command might run for 1.5 hours.

    In this command line, replace version_no with the version of your tar files.

    % cat mc-version_no-sfw.tar.a? | sh ./import.sh
    % cd /var/opt/oracle.minicluster/patch
    % cat mc-version_no-sfw.tar.a? | sh ./import.sh

    Once complete, delete the tar file:

    % rm mc-version_no-sfw.tar.a?
  6. If the previous step caused the eshm/omc service to transition into a maintenance state, clear the service on both nodes.
    % su - root
    # svcadm clear eshm/omc

    Clear the eshm/omc service on both nodes.

  7. Consider your next action.

    IMPORTANT – Update the MCMU component before you update any other component. See Update the MCMU Component (CLI).

    If you have already updated the MCMU component, you can update other components by performing one of these procedures:
