7.1 Importing the OPAR file

1. The Oracle Plugin Archive (OPAR) file is distributed as a compressed zip file. Extract

the contents of the zip file and make the OPAR (for example,

dell.em.ome_12.1.0.2.0.opar) file available to OMS (LinVM).

NOTE: At this stage of the process, it is assumed that the Oracle emcli utility on the OEM

server has been properly configured and set up prior to installation.

2. Import the OPAR file into the Software Library of the OMS. The following is an

example of an emcli import command (in this example, the contents of the

downloaded media have been extracted to the /tmp folder):

$ emcli import_update -file=/tmp/dell.em.ome_12.1.0.2.0.opar -
