Figure 11-2. ULN subscriptions for compute node patching
After your system is registered and subscribed to the proper channels, you will need to create the following
directory on each compute node:
[root@cm01dbm01 11.2.3.1.0]# mkdir -p /var/www/html/yum
Once this is complete, download script 167283.sh from www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/linux
/yum-repository-setup-085606.html to retrieve the RPMs based on the channels you've subscribed to and run the
script on each compute node. Following is an example execution of 167283.sh :
[root@cm01dbm01 stg]# sh ./167283.sh

Next, enable HTTP on your compute nodes in preparation for using yum to download updates:
[root@cm01dbm01 ~]# chkconfig --add httpd
