Upgrading a Linux installation v14

If you have an existing OCL Connector RPM installation, you can use yum or dnf to upgrade your repository configuration file and update to a more recent product version. To update the edb.repo file, assume superuser privileges and enter:

• On RHEL or CentOS 7:

  yum upgrade edb-repo

• On RHEL or Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux 8:

  dnf upgrade edb-repo

yum or dnf will update the edb.repo file to enable access to the current EDB repository, configured to connect with the credentials specified in your edb.repo file. Then, you can use yum to upgrade any installed packages:

• On RHEL or CentOS 7:

  yum upgrade edb-oci

  yum upgrade edb-oci-devel

• On RHEL or Rocky Linux or AlmaLinux 8:

  dnf upgrade edb-oci

  dnf upgrade edb-oci-devel
