Hi Phil, can you try with Python v3.7+ ?
This is Exadata Cloud @ Customer, and I don't really want to be mucking around installing new versions of Python. This is the version of Python that comes with the OS image
[opc@exadbsyd21 .oci]$ sudo yum list python3
Installed Packages
python3.x86_64 3.6.8-18.0.5.el7 installed
python3-libs.x86_64 3.6.8-18.0.5.el7 installed
python3-pip.noarch 9.0.3-8.0.1.el7 installed
python3-setuptools.noarch 39.2.0-10.el7 installed
And oci-cli is a prereq for using Oracle Dynamic Scaling - Remote Plug-in (Doc ID 2770544.1)
3.6.8 is also the latest version at https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL7/latest/x86_64/index.html, So I am not sure where I am supposed to get 3.7+
I cannot use yum to install against an Exadata Cloud@Customer OS image from the public repos. Nor should I have to.
Not to mention that is still only going to give me 3.6.8
This issue is fixed now.Please download latest version of oci cli for fix.
