The following instructions describe how to upgrade a system to UEK R7. For more details about the suggested migration paths for upgrading to UEK R7, see About Upgrading From a Previous Oracle Linux or UEK Release to UEK R7.

  1. Enable access to the appropriate ULN channels or yum repositories, as described in Subscribing to ULN Channels and Enabling Access to Oracle Linux Yum Server Repositories.

    Tip:

    Disable any other UEK channels or repositories that you might have previously configured as good practice.

    sudo dnf install -y kernel-uek
sudo dnf update -y

  3. After the upgrade has completed, reboot the system.

    Ensure to select the UEK R7 kernel (version 5.15.0) if it's not the default boot kernel.
