Section 1:overview
After staging the Rapid install software and the adautostg.pl script or downloading the Rapid install software from Oracl E Electronic Delivery, the MD5 checksums for the staged directory structure can is used to validate the software integrity . The running the Md5sum program against the stage area using the Oracle created checksum file. This is a official development document-this procedure was performed/tested using the downloadable rapidwiz media.
Section 2:download MD5 checksum results from Oracle
Download the MD5 checksum results from Oracle as posted below to a local file, for example <your platform> md5sum_ txt.
The attached files contain the MD5 checksum results for every R12.1.1 release. Download the file corresponding to the used release and platform. The MD5 checksum has been created without the STARTCD as it's often being updated, the checksum for the STARTCD's can be Tested separately.
Release 12.1.1 checksums currently available:
- R12.1.1-windows
- R12.1.1-IBM AIX
- R12.1.2-linux on IBM System Z
- R12.1.1-linux 32-bit
- R12.1.1-linux 64-bit
- R12.1.1-solaris Sparc 64-bit
- R12.1.1-hp_ux
- R12.1.1-hp_ux Itanium
Release 12.1.x STARTCD checksums:
- R12.1.1 startcd-version 12.1.1.9
- R12.1.1 startcd-version 12.1.1.10
- R12.1.1 startcd-version 12.1.1.11
- R12.1.2 StartCD (Linux on IBM System z only)-Version 12.1.1.12.ZLINUX
- R12.1.1 startcd-version 12.1.1.13
Section 3:compare MD5 checksums
Compare the Stage with the md5sums downloaded from Oracle (md5sum_.txt). There should not being any FAILED entry in the output. If a FAILED Entrie was found and then the stage area is not created successfully. The stage has the to is re-created for every component indicating differences (FAILED).
Note: The following example assumes the stage exists in/u01 for Unix and Linux, or f:\ for Windows customers. |
Execute The following example commands to check stage using the the The MD5 checksums
- On Unix/linux:
- Install the Md5sum utility for your platform if md5sum are not present on your system. If md5sum is not available from your OS Vendor for your OS version (for example HP 11.0), download and install The Coreutils package is from gnu.org.
$ cd /u01/StageR12
$ md5sum --check md5sum_Linux32.txt > md5sum_result.txt
- On Windows:
- MKS Toolkit or Cygwin needs to being installed to being able to use mdm5sum.
F:\> cd StageR12
F:\StageR12> md5sum --check md5sum_Windows.txt > md5sum_result.txt
Note: The MD5 checksum would validate the entire stage area and could take ten minutes or more depending on hardware resources a nd system load.
When the md5sum command failed for all lines with error: ": Failed Open or read" try-to-make it a UNIX file using:dos2u Nix <checksum file> <checksum file> |
Section 4:disk Overview, to is used when corrupted files is found
When a corrupted file is found the following can being used to identify which part needs to being re-downloaded from Edelivery.
