Updating Your System Packages Using Red Hat Network
Red Hat periodically releases software updates to fix bugs, address security issues, and add new features. You
can download these updates through the Red Hat Network (RHN) service. See the Dell and Oracle website
at
dell.com/10g
for the latest supported configurations before you use RHN to update your system software
to the latest revisions.
NOTE: If you are deploying Oracle Database on a single node, skip the following sections and see "Configuring and
Deploying Oracle Database 10g (Single Node)" on page 27.

software configuration for the entire cluster. The following sections provide setup information for both Fibre
Channel cluster configurations.
