Attaching Software Sources to a Group

Add a software source to the group manifest to make it available to all instances in a group in Autonomous Linux.

    1. On the Groups list page, select the name of the group. If you need help finding the list page, see Listing Groups.
    2. Under Resources, select Group Manifest.
    3. On the Group software sources tab, select Attach software source.
    4. Enter the details for the job that will attach the software sources:

      Name: Enter a name for the job. The name doesn't need to be unique, because an Oracle Cloud Identifier (OCID) uniquely identifies the job. Avoid entering confidential information.

      Description: (Optional) Enter a description for the job. Avoid entering confidential information.

      Software sources: Select the software sources to attach to the instance.
      Tip

      Use the search box to find a specific software source.

      Schedule: Choose when to run the job.

      • Run immediately: Select this option to run the job now.
      • Schedule: Select this option to run the job at a future date and time. Select the calendar icon to select a date and time.
        • Automatic Retry: When selected, if the initial execution of the job fails, the service retries the job up three times. Each retry is five minutes apart.
        • Show advanced options: Add tags to this resource.

          If you have permissions to create a resource, then you also have permissions to apply free-form tags to that resource. To apply a defined tag, you must have permissions to use the tag namespace. For more information about tagging, see Resource Tags. If you're not sure whether to apply tags, ask an administrator or skip this option. You can apply tags later.

    5. Select Attach.
  • Use the oci os-management-hub managed-instance-group attach-software-sources command and required parameters to attach software sources to a group.

    oci os-management-hub managed-instance-group attach-software-sources --group-id ocid --software-sources software-sources.json [OPTIONS]

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

  • Run the AttachSoftwareSourcesToManagedInstanceGroup operation to attach software sources to a group. The software sources must be compatible with the content for the group.
