Verify Permissions

To be able to run any upgrade or patch workflows, you must have an administrator account to log in to the Service Enclave. You must be a member of one of these authorization groups: SuperAdmin, Admin, or DR Admin. More information can be found in the chapter Administrator Account Management of the Oracle Private Cloud Appliance Administrator Guide.

When you log in to the Service CLI, you can verify that the upgrade and patch commands are available to you by displaying all custom commands, or custom commands in these object categories: UpgradeRequest, PatchRequest, UpgradeJob, UpgradeJobList. The list of commands is filtered based on your access profile. If the upgrade and patch commands are listed, it means you have permission to run them.
