Install Oracle guest additions, which you are the Oracle virtual machine tools.
Now, exactly what is Oracle guest addition and why do we need them?
Well, Oracle guest additions are the tools that are.
Associated with the Oracle Oracle, what box, you know, we have a Linux machine that runs on Oracle
Box or environment, but if we want that washing machine to run more efficiently with its and output
features and also some people want to have the mouse, especially the mouse, to be not trapped inside
a virtual machine, what they do is they installed Oracle guess addition tools.
So what you would have to do is if you are inside of a virtual machine, then you don't have to do the
right control key to get out of the console trap.
You could just freely move your mouse from from your machine to your desktop.
So that's one of the advantages.
There are many advantages as well.
So in this lesson, this is what we are going to cover on how we could install Oracle guest additions,
tools in our virtual machine and specifically in our Linux virtual machine.
So what are we going to do is first the instructions that we're going to follow, or is that first we
make sure that you are running the latest kernel.
So to see if you are running Bellairs kernel is either by you or look online and see what the latest
goes.
Excuse me with the latest kernel version is out there.
Or you could just simply do of update kernel, which most likely you will do, and then install the
following packages, which is to do the RPM.
And there is this package called
Epel latest release, seven rpm.
Oh, by the way, I'm sorry, this FDA just ignore that is just a mistype the whole https call and ends
at R.P.M. then install the following packages which is JC Col Del Col Header CDMs Make Baeza two and
Perl.
And of course at the end once everything, all the requirement, all the basic necessities for Oracle
guess editions are done then mount the virtual box gets additions is by going to the console and clicking
on device, insert guest edition CDS images and then simply run it.
So let's go ahead and follow this procedure.
So this way we could do the installation of Oracle Guess Ed. So for this procedure, I will go through
my console.
I already have my console open, I am logged in as myself, my directory is my home directory and my
host name is the current or the right host name, which is my first Linux machine to do the jump update
for the kernel.
I have to be route.
Now, I would have to update my yum install, Colonel.
An asteroid, but, of course, make sure before you run this command, make sure your computer has
Internet connectivity.
If you do not have Internet connected, first enable the wireless or Ethernet cable, attach connectivity
to the Internet.
I have the Internet connectivity.
I have confirmed it as well.
I could do ping w w w dot com and you will see I'm getting a result back.
So that's how I know I have Internet connectivity anyway.
Do you, um, install Col Estra and I'll go out to all the repositories that is available to me for
this version that I'm running and it will find all the packages that I need to do the update.
And you will see here is the dependancy, resolve and list of installing packages that are there and
of is telling me install total eight packages and total of eight packages, that it will be upgrading
it.
But of course, it depends on your system, your Linux machine, your output could be different from
my output.
So just don't look exactly the same as mine.
Quite different depending on your system.
And it was installed when it was patched or when it was upgraded.
So simply go ahead and guess what this is going to do is this is going to download all the packages
that are associated with the name kernel.
And there are a total of seven packages that it is going to download.
As you could see, it's going to one, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
It's up to seven right now.
And once the download is complete, then it will go through the installation process.
It's just the same way as if you are installing something on your Windows machine where you would first
download the executable after downloading it, then you double click on the package itself, then it
goes through the installation process.
So same way works here.
So now it's telling me that it has downloaded.
And now it's updating the two packages that it was talking about.
You see it has right here, it says upgrade two packages.
So the first thing it did, it updated up to those two packages.
Perfect.
So now after the upgrade, now it has aid packages to install
for those packages.
These are the eight packages that it will install.
See, one, two, three, four, five, six, seven and eight together and two packages that will update
are one and two.
So anyway, update is completed.
Installation is still in process.
So once the installation is completed, then you could see there is this repository that.
I would have to install that repository or that R.P.M. would allow me to also do the install of other
R.P.M. packages.
OK, so let's give it a couple of minutes.
And what I could do is I could just simply fast forward from here, so this way it doesn't waste your
time and by the time it finished doing the installation, then will come back to it.
OK, on my machine installation, our digital update for the colonel has been completed.
The next step I would have to do is run this command, which is to download another R.P.M. package,
by the way.
This instruction, I will add to one of the notepad and then you could download from the resource it
from the same lesson and you could just simply copy and paste.
Once I run this R.P.M. home, install this R.P.M. package, then I would have to install this list of
all the packages with the command yeomen's the logic Colonel Devil kernel headers decamps, make Baeza
to and Perl.
Once all these packages are installed, then we'll go to the last part where we will do the mount.
Also BASKIS addition, and this is what I'm going to show you now how you could attaches the device,
insert guess addition CD images from Linux or from the virtual machine console.
OK, so once all the required are or packages are installed or kernel is updated, then all you have
to do is come to this console of a VM, whether it's a virtual machine for legs or windows, you go
click on devices and click on insert guest addition CD image.
So when you click on it, you will see a disk image that will show up here, it means it is being attached
and it will ask you to run it.
So just go ahead and click run.
Once you run it, it will open up a window and I'll ask you for permission to put in a password and
then it will run that automatically.
So says, do you wish to complete?
I have already been through this.
I don't have to do that.
So simply go ahead and do install and it should take care of your guest OS tools where you don't have
to actually where your mouse will not be trapped inside of your console.
Virtual machine console.
All right, thanks.
