Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<

CAUSE 

File /etc/oracle-release is missing in the environment.

SOLUTION

To implement the solution test the following steps in a development instance and then migrate accordingly:

1. Create the file /etc/oracle-release with a line "Oracle Linux Server release <version>"
(Replace <version> with the version verified from the release version of /etc/redhat-release and /etc/system-release) in your env:
eg) 

If /etc/redhat-release and /etc/system-release has Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 7.3, 

create the /etc/oracle-release as below:
Oracle Linux Server release 7.3

2. Retest Rapid Clone and confirm the error is resolved.
