FM Package Does Not Install When Installing Operating Systems Using Oracle System Assistant

Bug ID 26792735

Issue: FM package fm-2.4.2.0.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm does not install when installing Oracle Linux and Oracle VM operating systems using Oracle System Assistant.

Affected software: Oracle Linux 6.x and 7.4, Oracle VM 3.4.x

Workaround: Perform the following procedure to manually complete the FM package installation.


Note -  You can manually find the FM package in the Oracle System Assistant image for the installed operating system (OS). The path is different for each OS.

For example, for Oracle Linux 6.9, perform the following procedure:

  1. Type the lsscsi command to list the Oracle System Assistant partition name and path.

    root@x86bj046 ~]# lsscsi |grep -i SSM [0:0:0:0] disk ORACLE SSM
    PMAP /dev/sdg
  2. Mount the Oracle System Assistant partition.

    #>mkdir /mnt/osa
    mount /dev/sdg1 /mnt/osa/
    
  3. Type the path to the FM package.

    #>cd /mnt/osa/Linux/OL/Common/OL_6U5_6U6_6U7_6U8_6U9/Tools/Oracle-Hardware-Management-Pack/oracle-hmp-2.4.2.0/packages
    [root@x86bj046 packages]# ls fm-2.4.2.0.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm 
    fm-2.4.2.0.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
    
  4. Install the FM package.

    [root@x86bj046 packages]# export LFMA_UPDATE=1
    [root@x86bj046 packages]# rpm -ivh fm-2.4.2.0.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
