Oracle ASM Lib for SLED 12 SP1

Hello All!,

I want to obtain the Oracle ASM for SLED 12 SP1

but in the Oracle URL: “http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/linux/asmlib/sles12-2714894.html” only exist:

       Oracle ASMLib Downloads for SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 12

Library and Tools

oracleasm-support-2.1.8-1.SLE12.x86_64.rpm oracleasmlib-2.0.12-1.sle12.x86_64.rpm

When i try install oracleasmlib-2.0.12-1.sle12.x86_64.rpm i receive the error:

error: Error de dependencias: oracleasm-kmp-default >= 1.0.4 es necesario por oracleasmlib-2.0.12-1.SLE12.x86_64

I sent a question to OTN forums and they comment that, the OS provider could give me the KMP kernel with asm support.

Could you please give me the URL for obtain this?

I will see what I can find out for you but if you are able to open a service request with SUSE then try that route.

Oracle DB is a server product, and your link mentions options on SUSE
Linux Enterprise Server (SLES). I just checked a SLES 12 SP1 system and
the kernel module you need is there already, so if you are trying to do
this on SLED, I would recommend you try a Server, not Desktop, build of
SLE since that is where things like Oracle DB should be housed, and are
likely the only place that Oracle would support their DB should you need
help from them.
