DTrace offers easy-but-powerful dynamic tracing of system behavior, and it is so lightweight and safe that it can routinely be used on production systems. DTrace was originally developed for the Oracle Solaris operating system. Oracle has also ported DTrace to Linux. Recent enhancements for Linux include: initial ARM64 support implementation of additional providers (lockstat, initial pid provider support) improved feature alignment with other DTrace implementations...

With so many kernel updates released, it can be difficult to keep track. At Oracle, we monitor kernels on a daily basis and provide bug and security updates administrators can apply without a system reboot. To help out, the Ksplice team has produced the Ksplice Inspector, a web tool to show you the updates Ksplice can apply to your kernel with zero downtime. The Ksplice Inspector is freely available to everyone. If you're running any Ksplice supported kernel, whether it is...

There are several ways to install the Python SDK and CLI for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). In this blog post I describe two ways to do so on Oracle Linux 7: using Oracle Linux system Python 2.7 —included in the OS— and the python-oci-sdk and python-oci-cli RPMs Using Python 3.6 from the Oracle Linux EPEL repository and pip Configuring Required Keys and OCIDs For the OCI SDK and CLI to work, basic configuration and authentication information is required. For example,...

Python remains a popular programming language, ranking high on GitHub activity charts (2nd place, for the first quarter of 2018) and some even calling it the fastest-growing major programming language. There are several ways to get started with Python development on Oracle Linux from using system Python included in the OS to installing recent Python versions from EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux). This page for Python Developers on Oracle Linux yum server describes...

In a previous blog post, I described the steps to streamline the pre-installation steps on Oracle Linux for Oracle Database 12c using the Database preinstallation package. In this post you will learn how to do a fully automated installation of Oracle Database 12c on Oracle Linux running in an Oracle VM VirtualBox guest. The tutorial is based on a Vagrantfile published in our Vagrant repo on GitHub. Because this installation method uses VirtualBox, Vagrant and an Oracle...
