You can even convert your existing CentOS6 boxes across to Oracle Linux 6 in-place without reinstalling: Yeah, that’s fine and supported. Though, it just switches the existing box across without upgrading to the new kernel. We retain the scripts so that users can switch across without reinstalling. Additional steps are required to install the UEK, though, as below: >>> is had no effect, even after running a yum clean all to ensure that the caches were reset. I'll re-install my test station with a direct download of OL, since the testing now underway is apparently invalid. No need for this, just install kernel-uek manually: # yum install kernel-uek It has a different name from the default kernel, so both can be installed at the same time. Because this is a switched box, a yum upgrade won’t automatically pull in the UEK because there isn’t an existing one to upgrade.
