Register and Update Your Linux
Operating System

The Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN) is a comprehensive resource for Oracle
Linux support subscribers, offering access to Linux software patches, updates and
fixes, along with information on updates and support policies. If you are a licensed
Oracle customer with an active Oracle Linux support subscription, you will receive
an Oracle Linux customer support identifier (CSI) number. You will use this number
to register your server on the ULN. Registration requires a CSI number and a valid
email address.

1. If you do not already have one, create your ULN account.

Go to:

http://linux.oracle.com/register

You will use your email address and CSI and you will be required to create a
password. In the future, you will then simply use your email address and
password to log in to ULN.

2. Once you have a ULN account, run the command below on the server as the root

user in a terminal window or on the command line:

uln_register

The

uln_register

wizard will collect machine information and upload it to

Oracle.

Executing the above command will choose the default channel

ol6_<arch>_latest

.

The

_latest

channels provide the most recent available RPM for all the packages in

the distribution, including those errata also provided in the

_patch ch

channels.

You can subscribe to other channels using the web interface after you have
registered.
