Operating system RPM installation requirements and operating system patching
Before you install Veritas Access you need these OS RPMs. Veritas has categorized the OS RPMs into four groups.
This set of RPMs are kernel RPMs that are required to be installed with exact predefined RPM versions only.
The required RPM versions are different for RHEL 7.3 and RHEL 7.4.
The required RPM versions are different for OL 7.4.
The RPMs in this category should not be patched without specific approval from Veritas.
See Kernel RPMs that are required to be installed with exact predefined RPM versions.
See OL kernel RPMs that are required to be installed with exact predefined RPM versions.
This set of RPMs include the OS libs and OS packages that must be installed with minimum predefined RPM versions.
The required RPM versions are different for RHEL 7.3 and RHEL 7.4.
The required RPM versions are different for OL 7.4.
The RPMs in this category can be patched using official Red Hat patches.
An approval or certification from Veritas is not required to patch these RPMs.
This set of RPMs are required by Category 2 RPMs as dependencies, their installation is enforced by Red Hat.
Veritas Access does not require any specific versions of these RPMs to be installed.
The versions of these RPMs are determined by Red Hat.
The RPMs in this category can be patched using official Red Hat patches.
An approval or certification from Veritas Access is not required to patch these RPMs.
Veritas does not document these RPMs as required RPMs for Veritas Access.
This set of RPMs are third-party RPMs that are included in the Veritas Access ISO.
