Applies to:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Version N/A and later

Linux x86-64


Symptoms

In a OCI OL7 instance where oracle-cloud-agent is not installed, when trying to install the package via yum, the following error is seen:

No package oracle-cloud-agent available.

It can also be seen from the yum output that the yum repository [ol7_oci_included] is not listed in the refreshed repository list.


Cause

The oracle-cloud-agent package is obtained from the ol7_oci_included repository.

Yum needs to have that repository configured, to be able to obtain the package.


Solution

1) To enable the repository in yum, check in the /etc/yum.repos.d/ if a file named oci-included-ol7.repo exists. 

Howdy, Stranger!
