Known Issues

Details

Autonomous Linux doesn't provide an option to edit a module for a group using the Console at this time.

Workaround

We're working on a resolution. As a workaround, you can use the API or CLI to edit the module. Or, in the Console you can first remove the module and then add the module with the updated module stream configuration.

Details

You can't use your own private or third-party yum repositories or mirrors with Autonomous Linux. The service, however, doesn't interact with nor interfere with content from these repositories.

Workaround

We're working on a resolution to manage content from private and third-party repositories using Autonomous Linux.

As a workaround, you can manually add custom repository files to /etc/yum.repos.d on an instance registered with Autonomous Linux and then manage those repositories outside of the service. Autonomous Linux won't disable these repositories. However, scheduled update jobs won't update content from private or third-party repositories.

Details

Autonomous Linux instances created after March 18, 2020 don't have the Oracle Instant Client installed by default.

Workaround

1. Add the instantclient software source appropriate for the instance OS to OS Management Hub. See:
   • Adding Vendor Software Sources
2. Attach the software source to the instance or group. See:
   • Attaching Software Sources to an Instance
   • Attaching Software Sources to a Group
3. Install the version of the oracle-instantclient package that you want on the instance or add it to the group. See:
   • Installing Packages on an Instance
   • Adding Packages to a Group

These known issues have been resolved in Autonomous Linux.
