Symptoms

In Exalogic racks running Linux on bare metal (physical) or running in a Virtualized configuration, OID and EM agent instances (installed in compute nodes on physical and guest vServers on virtual) are unable to start after upgrading to April 2015 PSU (EECS 2.0.6.2.1) or later PSU versions.

OID instances do not start after upgrading due to insufficient permissions on "oiddispd". Both prior to and after applying the PSU, the "oiddispd" file is observed to have permissions of 4710 (-rws--x---). Updates in the PSU require additional permissions for the daemon process to start.

EM agents are unable to access the "nmo" files inside the <AGENT_HOME>/bin directory following the PSU upgrade. Both prior to and after applying the PSU, the "nmo" files inside the <AGENT_HOME>/bin are observed to have permissions of 4710 (-rws--x---). Updates in the PSU require additional permissions to enable access.

Changes

Upgrade to Exalogic Virtual April 2015 PSU (EECS 2.0.6.2.1) or later PSU versions.
