Red Hat familyAutomatic tools: fit confirmed per server

Oracle Linux server management in India

Oracle Linux is RHEL-compatible and free to download, and it is common on servers that run Oracle Database or Oracle Cloud instances. Its choice of kernels (UEK or the Red Hat compatible one) and its update channels are details that decide whether updates go smoothly. RootManage manages Oracle Linux servers: patching, kernel choice, SELinux, hardening and recoverable backups.

Versions: Oracle Linux 8 and 9. Earlier releases are reviewed case by case.

What our engineers handle on Oracle Linux

This is the hands-on work, done by a person: the jobs the automatic tools cannot do for you.

  1. 1Keep repositories and kernels sorted, including UEK versus RHCK, and apply updates on a schedule
  2. 2Configure SELinux and firewalld for the workloads running on the server
  3. 3Tune kernel parameters and limits for databases and application servers
  4. 4Check backups and run a restore test

Problems we fix

Problem

Updates install but the server keeps booting the old kernel

What we do

We check the default kernel and boot configuration, set it correctly and confirm after a planned reboot.

Problem

A database server swaps heavily

What we do

We review memory settings, huge pages and swappiness against the workload and fix what is out of line.

Problem

A third-party driver breaks after a kernel update

What we do

We pin or rebuild the module for the new kernel, and plan updates so it does not break the next time.

Automatic tools, and our team for the rest

RootManage is automatic server management with every tool in one place. The tools run by themselves on a schedule and report to one dashboard. Everything they cannot do, and every emergency, is handled by our engineers by hand.

Manual, by our engineers

Everything else, and every emergency

  • Hands-on work. Fixes, tuning, migrations, upgrades and the other jobs listed above on this page.
  • Emergency work. A hacked site, an outage or a failed update is handled by a person who investigates and fixes it, not by a script.
  • Things we do not automate. Anything the tools do not cover is done by hand, over SSH, WHM or RDP, on a login you can remove at any time.

We manage it over SSH. The agent installers are built for the Linux distributions listed in the agent guide, so we confirm which agents fit your server before installing anything.

The tools are optional, run on Linux servers and are installed by you with one command each. Every job our team does is recorded as a task in your dashboard with the details, and you get an email when it is updated.

How it works

  1. 1

    Sign up

    Create an account, choose a plan and add the server you want managed.

  2. 2

    Give access

    We connect over RDP or SSH on a login you create, and you can remove it whenever you like.

  3. 3

    Automatic, with people behind it

    An engineer checks the server on the schedule we agree and does the hands-on work. You follow every task in your dashboard.

Questions about Oracle Linux

Do you support Oracle Database itself?

We manage the operating system and general server health. Database administration of Oracle software is a specialist job, so we tell you plainly if something is outside what we cover.

Can you move Oracle Linux workloads to AlmaLinux or Rocky?

Yes, for most applications. We test the application on the new system first and move data and configuration with a rollback plan.

What does it cost to have Oracle Linux managed?

Managed plans start at ₹1,999 a month for one server, and Oracle Linux is managed as part of the server. The pricing page lists what each plan includes. If a server is already infected, the emergency cleanup is a one-time ₹9,000 job.
