2 years ago If the second server booted up with the RHCK (Red Hat Compatible Kernel) you can then install the kernel with "yum" or "dnf" by pointing to proper Oracle Linux yum channels. Do you have a log of the upgrade where UEK hadn't been installed ?

Thanks!

2 years ago GOOD NEWS! It seemed as if 90% of the conversion script had completed OK, so I took a chance on completing the installation of the UEK kernel by running these steps and it worked great!
--OR-- upgrade existing package:
Verify UEKR6 kernel repo is "enabled"
ol8_UEKR6 .................... enabled
Enable UEKR6 kernel repo:
Install the ORACLE UEK KERNEL:
And additionally, install the devel package:
Finally, reboot the system to load the new UEK kernel

The conversion script centos2ol.sh worked perfectly on one of my servers; however, on another server, the script failed to install the uek kernel at all. Can I copy the uek kernel from the first server where the conversion worked, and then, use grubby to make that copied over uek kernel the default on the second server? I don't recall any error message at the end of the script. Thanks!
