G.2 Prepare the Compute Nodes for Yum Updates
1. On a host outside the Exalogic machine, set up a local yum repository as
described in the "Server Setup" section of the following document:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-storage-
admin/yum-repo-setup-1659167.html
While doing this, select only the ol5_x86_64_latest channel.
2. On each compute node on the Exalogic machine, do the following:
a.
Log in as the root user.
b.
Set up the compute node as a yum client of the repository you set up in step 1,
by performing the steps in the "Client Setup" section of the following
document:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/articles/servers-
storage-admin/yum-repo-setup-1659167.html

To ensure that essential RPMs are not modified during yum updates, append
the following exclude directive, to the /etc/yum.conf file.

This exclusion list includes all of the RPMs listed in RPMs That Must Not Be
