Comment
12.1.2.5.0 includes all FW required for the next patch bundle and therefore is mandatory when upgrading to 12.1.2.6
12.1.2.5.0 is required before upgrading to 12.1.2.6.0 or any other higher version unless re-imaging.
12.1.2.5.0 is the last ODA version on OL5.
- Any applications dependent on OL5 and the associated RPMs need to be tested
New offline standalone tool validateOL6.zip, can be downloaded from OTN to validate the OS patching prior to download the 12.1.2.6.0 patch zip.
Unzip to an empty directory, ./validateOl6PreChecks can be executed to do precheck.
12.1.2.5.0 to 12.1.2.6.0 includes very special steps as the ODA 12.1.2.6.0 will perform an in-place OS upgrade and should never be interrupted once started
- See 12.1.2.6.0 notes for more information
