Preparing Oracle Database Appliance X3-2/X4-2/X5-2 for
Service
This section describes preparing Oracle Database Appliance X3-2, Oracle Database Appliance
X4-2, and Oracle Database Appliance X5-2 for service. If you have Oracle Database Appliance
(original version), go to “Preparing Oracle Database Appliance (Original Version) for
Service” on page 28.
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 Getting Started
Guide or Administration and Reference Guide for any special instructions or commands that
must be performed on the appliance to prepare it for service.
