Installing and Configuring 23
NOTE: You can find the list of the missing RPMs in the /dell-oracle-
deployment/logs/rpm_install.log file.

Run the following script to install the Dell PowerEdge system component
drivers:
$> ./10-install-Dell-rpms.sh
NOTE: This script installs the supported Dell Dynamic Kernel Module Support
(DKMS) drivers located in the /dell-oracle-deployment/rpms folder. The
DKMS driver installation requires the presence of the kernel-devel RPM in
order to build the modules. This script attempts to automatically download
and install the kernel-devel package from the operating system channel. If the
kernel-devel package is not found on the operating system channel, then you
may have to manually install the kernel-devel package before you install the
Dell DKMS drivers through this script.
NOTE: When the kernel is upgraded in a system where the DKMS driver is
installed, certain DKMS drivers do not rebuild for the new kernel and are
installed as a weak module. By default, the built-in modules have precedence
over the weak-modules and hence the weak DKMS drivers do not get loaded.
It is recommended to use the DKMS driver if the version is higher than the
module version of the updated kernel. This script also creates depmod
configuration files in the /etc/depmod.d/ folder that overrides the updated
kernel's modules for certain DKMS modules. If you want to use the updated
kernel's modules, delete the <module.conf> files created by this script from
the /etc/depmod.d/ folder and run the 'depmod -a' command to load the native
modules.

Run the following script to install the Oracle asm RPMs after booting to
the updated kernel:
$> ./20-install-oracle-rpms.sh
NOTE: This script installs the Oracle asm RPMs. If the operating system on
your system is OEL, then this script downloads and installs the Oracle asm
RPMs from the ULN channel. If the operating system on your system is Red
Hat Enterprise Linux, then this script installs the Oracle asm RPMs from the
/dell-oracle-deployment/rpms directory.

Run the following script to setup the ownership and permissions for the
Oracle Grid and Database installation directories:
$> ./30-oracle-crs-base-permissions.sh
