OCI: Oracle Linux 9 - How to Install inotify-tools

in Linux

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure - Version N/A and later 

Oracle Linux 9 x86-64 

Goal: 

This document outlines the steps required to install inotify-tools in Oracle Linux 9. 

Solution: 

Oracle Linux 9 does not provide inotify-tools in the standard repositories.

In order to install inotify-tools in Oracle Linux 9, you can enable the ol9_developer_EPEL repository. 

1) Log in to your instance. 

2) Enable the repository with: 

 # yum-config-manager --enable ol9_developer_EPEL 

 3) Install the package with: 

# yum install inotify-tools 

NOTE:

Please be aware that there is not a production-supported version of inotify-tools in Oracle Linux 9.

You can use the EPEL provided version, but it does not come with bug support from the Oracle Linux team.
