Problem

 

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) provides a series of complementary cloud services that enables the user to build and run a wide range of applications and services in a Highly Available (HA) hosted environment. Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) offers high-performance compute capabilities (as physical hardware instances) along with storage capacity enabling secure access via flexible virtual network infrastructure from your on-premises network.

Support for the installation and configuration of Veritas InfoScale on Bare Metal Servers in OCI was not initially qualified for Red Hat Linux or Oracle Enterprise Linux (RHEL Compatibility Mode) environments.

 

Solution

 

For those customers looking to deploy an OS configuration not specifically included in Table 1.0,  please refer to the Veritas platform and kernel compatibility matrix located on SORT.  Support for Bare Metal OCI environments are not exclusively qualified.

Ad hoc qualification requests will be evaluated on a best-effort basis.
