Software Installation Prerequisites

Before you begin the software installation, ensure that these procedures are complete:

  • You used Oracle Exadata Deployment Assistant to generate the configuration files. See Using Oracle Exadata Deployment Assistant.

  • You assembled the installation files into the WorkDir directory under the OneCommand installation directory. (The OneCommand installation directory is the directory to which you extracted the OneCommand ZIP file, such as linux-x64.)

  • The checkip script ran successfully with no remaining errors.

  • All racks of a multirack installation are cabled together. See Extending a Rack by Adding Another Rack.

  • All components of all new racks are configured. See Configuring a Recovery Appliance Rack.

  • Oracle Management Server is operating on the same network as Recovery Appliance.

  • Reclaim the disk space on all compute servers. See "Reclaiming Disk Space on the Compute Servers".

  • The Oracle tape library is installed and operational. A tape library is an optional component of Recovery Appliance.
