If you are planning to consume SL1 Hollywood 12.2.4, be advised of the following:

• This release is available only as a patch; there is no ISO version.
• You can upgrade to 12.2.4 directly from the following SL1 versions:
  • 12.1.2, if all SL1 appliances are running on Oracle Linux 8 (OL8)
  • 12.2.1.1
  • 12.2.1.2
  • 12.2.3
• If you are currently on SL1 12.1.0.2 or 12.1.1 and all of your appliances are running on Oracle Linux 8 (OL8), you can upgrade to 12.1.2 or 12.2.1.2 and then to 12.2.4.
• STIG-compliant users can upgrade to 12.2.4.
• You must currently be on a version of SL1 with all appliances running on Oracle Linux 8 (OL8) before you can upgrade to 12.2.4.
• AWS deployments that are using Aurora 3 cannot upgrade to 12.2.4.
• Users who currently use Python 3.9 execution environments for Dynamic Applications and Run Book Automations should not upgrade to 12.2.4. Due to a known issue, Python 3.9 is not supported in this release. A fix for this issue is planned for version 12.2.5.
• After upgrading to 12.2.4 and running a security scanning tool against your SL1 appliances, you might experience an issue where the scan lists several "Oracle Linux 8 : container-tools" ELSA security findings. This is due to a known issue that is preventing SL1 from removing certain unneeded packages during the upgrade process for this release. If this occurs, you must perform a manual workaround to remove those packages.
