  • When re-executing the installer, if you receive OUI-10030 error messages, ignore the messages to continue using the existing OHF installation HOME path.

  • Convert the installer execution shell to SH shell as the installer script executes in the SH shell of Linux OS.

  • Text enclosed within <> in the following sections, indicate parameters and you must provide an appropriate value.
