To Install the Oracle Solaris OS

1. Obtain the Oracle Solaris 11.4 OS, at minimum, from the Oracle download site:

   We are Oracle Solaris

2. Perform a normal installation, as described in Oracle's Solaris 11.4 installation documentation.
3. Obtain the latest SRUs for the Oracle Solaris 11.4 OS, as required for your hardware platform. The HBA requires SRU 16, at minimum, to work on x86 systems with the Oracle Solaris 11.4 OS.

   You can obtain these Oracle Solaris SRUs at the My Oracle Support web site:

   My Oracle Support

4. Reboot the system.

   # reboot
                  

   The system can now see, and boot from, the RAID volume on which you installed the Oracle Solaris OS.

5. Continue with the HBA installation, as described in To Complete the Installation.
