Preparing Oracle Database Appliance X6-2 Series for
Service
This section describes preparing Oracle Database Appliance X6-2 series for service. If you have
Oracle Database X3-2, Oracle Database Appliance X4-2, or Oracle Database Appliance X5-2,
go to “Preparing Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 for Service” on page 48. If
you have Oracle Database Appliance Version 1, go to “Preparing Oracle Database Appliance
Version 1 for Service” on page 49.
Most service procedures are performed on a single appliance component. Service procedures
that require a single server node to be powered off can be performed without shutting
down the entire appliance. Before powering off any component for service, refer to the
appropriate Deployment and User's Guide for the Oracle Database Appliance X6 series or the
Administration and Reference Guide for the Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 or
Version 1 for any special instructions or commands that must be performed on the appliance to
prepare it for service.
Note - The links in the following table take you to instructions outside of the Oracle Database
Appliance library to the Oracle Server X6-2 and Oracle Server X6-2L (including Storage Server
X6-2 Extreme Flash version) documentation libraries. Use your browser's Back button to return
