Editing a Third-Party or Private Software Source

• Console
• CLI
• API

• 1. On the Software Sources list page, select the name of the software source. If you need help finding the list page, see Listing Software Sources.
  2. Select Edit.
  3. Edit the software source information:

     • Name: Enter a name for the source. You can change the name at any time. The name doesn't need to be unique, because an Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID) uniquely identifies the custom software source.

       Note
       
       OS Management Hub appends the OS version and architecture to the name. For example, if you enter the name abc-corp and specify Oracle Linux 9 and x86_64, the full name becomes abc-corp-ol9-x86_64.

     • Description: (Optional) Enter a description for the source.

     • URL: Enter the URL to the repository (such as https://myrepositoryurl). We recommend using https protocol whenever possible.

     • OS Version and Architecture: Add the OS version and architecture that can use this software source. If the repository supports multiple OS versions or architectures, you can add multiple entries.

     • Mirror to management stations: When enabled, the source can be mirrored on a management station for use with on-premises or third-party cloud instances. When disabled, on-premises or third-party cloud instances access the source directly from the repository URL instead of the management station.

     • Enable GPG checking: When enabled, use GPG checking to validate the content in the software source.

     • GPG key URI: When GPG checking is enabled, the location of the key used to validate content in the software source.

     • Allow self-signed certificates: When enabled, the source accepts self-signed certificates for authentication.

     • YUM repository file advanced settings: Edit any advanced YUM directives required by the software source.
     Note
     
     

     To learn more about advanced YUM directives, see the following resources:

     • Oracle Linux 7: Yum Repository Configuration
     • Oracle Linux 8 and 9: Editing Yum Repository Configuration Files

     Or, see the dnf.conf(5) or yum.conf(5) man pages on an Oracle Linux system.

  4. Select Update.

• Use the oci os-management-hub software-source update-third-party-swsrc or oci os-management-hub software-source update-third-party-swsrc command and required parameters to update a third-party software source.

  oci os-management-hub software-source update-third-party-swsrc --software-source-id ocid  [OPTIONS]

  Use the oci os-management-hub software-source update-private-swsrc command and required parameters to update a private software source.

  oci os-management-hub software-source update-private-swsrc --software-source-id ocid  [OPTIONS]

  For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

• Run the UpdateSoftwareSource operation to edit the third-party or private software source.
