Preface

Oracle Linux: Managing Software on Oracle Linux provides information about how to install, upgrade, and manage software on Oracle Linux systems by using DNF and Application Streams. Information is also provided on how to register with the Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN) and how to use this service to keep systems up-to-date and to access software that isn't available in the repositories that are provided by the Oracle Linux yum server.

If you're using Oracle Linux 7, see Oracle Linux 7: Managing Software and Oracle Linux: Unbreakable Linux Network User's Guide for Oracle Linux 6 and Oracle Linux 7.
