OTS and FTAM Installation process

[rana786]

Hi all,

I need to install OTS and FTAM in 2-cluster(RAC) node. Please confirm me that after installation whether the system will be rebooted or not. If it is rebooted then do I need to stop Database, gsd, and cluster?

Best regards,
Mostafa

Hi Mostafa,

If you are going to install OTS (OSI Transort Service) and FTAM, system needs to rebuild its kernel to enable kernel modules. Surely it needs reboot.

Better take a down time, stop all the applications gracefully and proceed further.

Hi Mostafa,

Yes, You need to reboot your server to configure OTS and FTAM. Before rebooting, you may need to stop all the services.

Hi Mustafa,

Normally, first you used to install first and configuration part next.
For below version OTS configuration is required reboot again for effect.

Just additional info on installation sequence.

2nd Install OTS asks for reboot.
3rd Configure FTAM no reboot.
4th COnfigure OTS old version needs reboot.
Latest OTS version updates dynamically.
