2 Updating the Host OS

Important:

The software described in this documentation is either in Extended Support or Sustaining Support. See Oracle Open Source Support Policies for more information.

We recommend that you upgrade the software described by this documentation as soon as possible.

To update the host OS on the nodes in an Oracle Cloud Native Environment, you must disable the Oracle Cloud Native Environment software package repositories when you perform the update. This avoids updates to the Oracle Cloud Native Environment software packages during the OS update process.

For example, if you're using the Oracle Linux yum server for system updates, update the host OS using:

sudo dnf update --disablerepo ol8_olcne17
