I'm trying to follow this guide http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/virtual-machines-linux-create-upload-vhd-oracle/ to prepare my virtual machine for uploading on azure.
I'm arrived at the command "sudo yum install WALinuxAgent" and given it but obtained the error "No package WALinuxAgent available"; I also updated the file public-yum-ol6.repo and checked for update to 6 update 5 but without result.
Where I can find it (over then github)?
You can get it from OpenLogic's EL6 repo. WALinuxAgent doesn't seem to be in Oracle Linux public yum repos.

I want to install oracle 12.2 in centos 7 and there is 10 machine in my environment.
is there any shell script for oracle installation in centos 7?
path is /home with default permission.
Thanks you!
You can install the first one manually using the standard installer. Once that is done, the install also supports a "clone existing" function either on the same machine or a different one. This ensure that the various inventory metadata details are captured, which is needed as well as the binaries in the ORACLE_BASE folder.
Examples on cloning and the steps needed are at:

I am trying to install logstash on SLES . Here are the version details
SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 (x86_64)
VERSION = 12
PATCHLEVEL = 2
# This file is deprecated and will be removed in a future service pack or release.
# Please check /etc/os-release for details about this release.
NAME="SLES"
VERSION="12-SP2"
VERSION_ID="12.2"
PRETTY_NAME="SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 12 SP2"
ID="sles"
ANSI_COLOR="0;32"
CPE_NAME="cpe:/o:suse:sles:12:sp2"
Most of the instructions available over google are for ElasticSearch but not for logstash. I tried rpm based installation as described here https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/rpm.html but here too they install elasticsearch using zypper install elasticsearch I am trying to install logstash 6.1 or later. what is the best way to install logstash on SLES? While installaing elasticsearch too I get an error as follows:
elasticsearch-6.1.3-1.noarch (Elasticsearch repository for 6.x packages): Signature verification failed [4-Signatures public key is not available]
Here is my elasticsearch.repo
[elasticsearch-6.x]
name=Elasticsearch repository for 6.x packages
baseurl=https://artifacts.elastic.co/packages/6.x/yum
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=https://artifacts.elastic.co/GPG-KEY-elasticsearch
enabled=1
autorefresh=1
type=rpm-md
It's probably too late, but it's better late than never. Anyway, I had the same issue and this article gave me an idea for a solution: https://en.opensuse.org/User:Tsu2/elasticsearch_logstash_official_repos. This part specifically solved my issue:
Download TAR file and extract. Because Elasticsearch is a Java binary, the extracted files can be run from anywhere
So, what I did is I've downloaded the Logstash TAR file, SCPed it to my SUSE server, and extracted it to my ELK folder. Then I ran it using its bin/logstash executable.
I hope this solution helps you and others who stumble on this page on their search for the solution.
I've been deploying VMs with kickstart files and OSes like CentOS7 and Oracle Linux 7 in Spacewalk, I even update the VM with a yum update in the post installation kickstart script, which is amazingly cool. After installation though, it doesn't really keep up to date with the latest version of the operating system, I'd have to download and upload the .ISO to Spacewalk every time an update comes around or do a yum update on the VM itself. Then I found out you can link and schedule an OS repository. I already have a setup of this kind for CentOS7 in Spacewalk.
This works for me:
CentOS7 repository for spacewalk channel example
The link to the CentOS7 repo
However, I haven't found any public repos for OL7. Does this kind of repo simply not exist for Oracle Linux 7?
Also, is there perhaps a better solution to this problem? I'm planning on using Puppet with this setup for the software aspect.
Thanks in advance.

2.3 Downloading the Oracle Linux Yum Server Repository Files
Note
The following procedure assumes that yum on your system is configured to expect to find repository files in the default /etc/yum.repos.d directory.
To download the Oracle Linux Yum Server repository configuration file:
As root, change directory to /etc/yum.repos.d.
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
Use the wget utility to download the repository configuration file that is appropriate for your system.
wget http://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-release.repo
For Oracle Linux 7, enter:
wget http://yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol7.repo
The /etc/yum.repos.d directory is updated with the repository configuration file, in this example, public-yum-ol7.repo.
You can enable or disable repositories in the file by setting the value of the enabled directive to 1 or 0 as required.
Oracle provides publicly accessible yum repos at yum.oracle.com. They even have their own build of Spacewalk available to customers.
Further, I added ULN support to Spacewalk a while ago, so you can configure it to sync content from ULN if you're a customer. See the Oracle Spacewalk Client Life Cycle Guide for more info: https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E52668_01/E71078/html/swk24-crreposwc.html
Alright REW and Djelibeybi both gave me good answers, instead of using the repo file though I opten to fully use Spacewalk and use the links in the repo file to update the channel. In hindsight I can't believe I didn't come up with this sooner because I knew of the yum public file.
The link to repo file was wrong,
I instead should have just used the links in the repo file to create multiple Spacewalk Channel repositories.
Thank you all, I'm very happy with this solution.
When I run yum install httpd-devel I get this :
This system is not registered to Red Hat Subscription Management. You can use subscription-manager to register.
Could not retrieve mirrorlist http://mirrorlist.centos.org/?release=7Server&arch=x86_64&repo=os&infra=$infra error was
14: curl#6 - "Could not resolve host: mirrorlist.centos.org; Erreur inconnue"
One of the configured repositories failed (Inconnu),
and yum doesn't have enough cached data to continue. At this point the only
safe thing yum can do is fail. There are a few ways to work "fix" this:
Cannot find a valid baseurl for repo: base/7Server/x86_64
I'm using rhel 7 how can I solve this?
Please download the rpm of repository for CENTOS 7 and RHEL 7
RHEL/CentOS 7 64-Bit
# wget http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/x86_64/e/epel-release-7-8.noarch.rpm
# rpm -ivh epel-release-7-8.noarch.rpm
You must realize that RHEL operating system is not FOSS (free and open-source) like CentOS or Ubuntu. You need to purchase a subscription to use its services like software repository and tech support.
You can have look at their catalog if you want, or you can use CentOS which is derived from RHEL, but is FOSS. Both the operating systems are closely related, and almost everything you can do on RHEL can be done in CentOS.
I have a server currently running RHEL 5.1, and I would like to upgrade it to RHEL 5.4. The server is not connected to the Internet, so I don't think I can use "yum update".
How would I be able to upgrade my server, and is it just a small-scale upgrade, like Windows patches, leaving everything on the server intact, or would it delete everything that was on the server?
Thank you.
Regards,
Rayne
I haven't actually tried this myself, but you should be able to use an installation disc for RHEL 5.4 to upgrade even if you are off-line (although you'll need to get on-line somewhere to download the disk image). Once you have the RHEL 5.4 disc, you should be able to follow the instructions here:
How do I use yum to update or install packages for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 from a customized repository?
to update your system. Basically, you create a custom repository on you hard drive with the rpm files from the disk and point yum at it or use the disc directly.
Good luck.
Of course if you can put the server temporarily on-line and just use the on-line repositories, after updating all the packages in your 5.1 distribution, you'll have all the same files as if you installed 5.4. At least that's what I remember happening. I had a 5.0 installation that I kept updated and when I compared them they seemed to be the same as the 5.3 version (current at the time) although during boot, my system said it was still 5.0
Rayne,
I used to work on DOE classified systems that could never touch the public internet. There is a very easy way to do this as mentioned. Just use the ISO as a repo, and for my example to work, it needs to be a DVD image. (The way around that using disk {1,2,3} is to copy the files from each disk onto the local disk or a storage device)
You will need to install createrepo which for me involved two dependencies.
createrepo
deltarpm
python-deltarpm
mkdir -p /mnt/iso/rhel54
mount -o loop /path/to/rhel5.4.iso /mnt/iso/rhel54
cd /mnt/iso
createrepo .
It will look like this:
[root#hostname iso]# createrepo .
44/20586 - rhel54/HighAvailability/Packages/PyQt4-4.6.2-8.el6.x86_64.rpm
Create /etc/yum.repos.d/rayne.repo and add
[Rayne-repo]
baseurl=file:///mnt/iso/
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
Then run yum update
The update from RHEL 5.1 to RHEL 5.4 is not a small one, not like Windows patches. You can read the release notes, but you will end up with a newer kernel in the end and a ton of updates to the packages. I have not upgraded from 5.X to 5.Y+3 before, it's always been incremental (5.1 to 5.2). At any rate, this should work for you.
