 You can decide to unzip it from your laptop (using Windows native functionalities, WinZip, 7-Zip or other tools or directly from the server. 

[oracle@collabn1 ~]$ cd /media/sf_12cR1 [oracle@collabn1 sf_12cR1]$ unzip linuxamd64_12c_database_1of2.zip  Archive: linuxamd64_12c_database_1of2.zip creating: database/               OK    inflating: database/welcome.html    OK    creating: database/response/       OK    inflating: database/response/db_install.rsp   OK    inflating: database/response/netca.rsp   OK    inflating: database/response/dbca.rsp   OK    creating: database/sshsetup/       OK    inflating: database/sshsetup/sshUserSetup.sh   OK    creating: database/rpm/            OK    inflating: database/rpm/cvuqdisk-1.0.9-1.rpm   OK    [...] [oracle@collabn1 sf_12cR1]$ unzip linuxamd64_12c_database_2of2.zip [...] [oracle@collabn1 sf_12cR1]$ unzip linuxamd64_12c_grid_1of2.zip [...] [oracle@collabn1 sf_12cR1]$ unzip linuxamd64_12c_grid_2of2.zip [...]

 Once the package decompression is completed, you'll end up with two directories, grid and database containing the installation files.

 Install the cvuqdisk package as root: 

[root@collabn1 ~]# rpm -Uvh /media/sf_12cR1/grid/rpm/cvuqdisk-1.0.9-1.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] Using default group oinstall to install package 1:cvuqdisk              ########################################### [100%] [root@collabn1 ~]#

 Do the same on node collabn2: 

[root@collabn2 ~]# rpm -Uvh /media/sf_12cR1/grid/rpm/cvuqdisk-1.0.9-1.rpm Preparing... ########################################### [100%] Using default group oinstall to install package 1:cvuqdisk              ########################################### [100%] [root@collabn2 ~]#
