First of all check the Hostname and IP on which we are going to install the Oracle Database.
Hostname: OEL64.localdomain
IP: 192.168.0.10
Confirm the bit version of Operating System:
[root@OEL64 ~]# uname -i
x86_64
[root@OEL64 ~]#
Download the 11.2.0.3 Database Files (p10404530_112030_Linux-x86-64_1of7.zip, p10404530_112030_Linux-x86-64_2of7.zip) from Oracle Site and put it on the server.
Now we will start configuring perquisite.
1. Hosts File
The “/etc/hosts” file must contain a fully qualified name for the server.
[root@OEL64 ~]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
192.168.0.10 OEL64.localdomain OEL64
[root@OEL64 ~]#
2. Oracle Installation Prerequisites
Add or amend the following lines in the “/etc/sysctl.conf” file.
fs.suid_dumpable = 1 fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576 fs.file-max = 6815744 kernel.shmall = 2097152 kernel.shmmax = 536870912 kernel.shmmni = 4096 # semaphores: semmsl, semmns, semopm, semmni kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128 net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500 net.core.rmem_default=4194304 net.core.rmem_max=4194304 net.core.wmem_default=262144 net.core.wmem_max=1048586
Run the following command to change the current kernel parameters.
/sbin/sysctl -p
Add the following lines to the “/etc/security/limits.conf” file.
oracle soft nproc 2047 oracle hard nproc 16384 oracle soft nofile 4096 oracle hard nofile 65536 oracle soft stack 10240
Install the following packages if they are not already present.
Go to media and go to the packages directory:
[root@OEL64 Packages]# pwd
/media/OL6.3 x86_64 Disc 1 20120626/Server/Packages
[root@OEL64 Packages]#
Install the below packages:
rpm -Uvh binutils-2*x86_64* rpm -Uvh glibc-2*x86_64* nss-softokn-freebl-3*x86_64* rpm -Uvh glibc-2*i686* nss-softokn-freebl-3*i686* rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33*x86_64* rpm -Uvh glibc-common-2*x86_64* rpm -Uvh glibc-devel-2*x86_64* rpm -Uvh glibc-devel-2*i686* rpm -Uvh glibc-headers-2*x86_64* rpm -Uvh elfutils-libelf-0*x86_64* rpm -Uvh elfutils-libelf-devel-0*x86_64* rpm -Uvh gcc-4*x86_64* rpm -Uvh gcc-c++-4*x86_64* rpm -Uvh ksh-*x86_64* rpm -Uvh libaio-0*x86_64* rpm -Uvh libaio-devel-0*x86_64* rpm -Uvh libaio-0*i686* rpm -Uvh libaio-devel-0*i686* rpm -Uvh libgcc-4*x86_64* rpm -Uvh libgcc-4*i686* rpm -Uvh libstdc++-4*x86_64* rpm -Uvh libstdc++-4*i686* rpm -Uvh libstdc++-devel-4*x86_64* rpm -Uvh make-3.81*x86_64* rpm -Uvh numactl-devel-2*x86_64* rpm -Uvh sysstat-9*x86_64* rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33*i686* rpm -Uvh compat-libcap*
If in case any package fails then use the –force option or sometime –nodeps can also help. take help from man page.
3. Create the new groups and users.
groupadd -g 501 oinstall groupadd -g 502 dba groupadd -g 503 oper groupadd -g 504 asmadmin groupadd -g 506 asmdba groupadd -g 505 asmoper useradd -u 502 -g oinstall -G dba,asmdba,oper oracle passwd oracle
Note. We are not going to use the “asm” groups, since this installation will not use ASM.
Additional Setup
Set the password for the “oracle” user.
passwd oracle
Amend the “/etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf” file as described below.
# Change this * soft nproc 1024 # To this * - nproc 16384
Set secure Linux to permissive by editing the “/etc/selinux/config” file, making sure the SELINUX flag is set as follows.
SELINUX=permissive
Once the change is complete, restart the server.
If you have the Linux firewall enabled, you will need to disable or configure it.
Create the directories in which the Oracle software will be installed.
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/db_1 chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01 chmod -R 775 /u01
Login as the oracle user and add the following lines at the end of the “.bash_profile” file.
# Oracle Settings TMP=/tmp; export TMP TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR ORACLE_HOSTNAME=OEL64.localdomain; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME ORACLE_UNQNAME=APEX; export ORACLE_UNQNAME ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0.3/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID=APEX; export ORACLE_SID PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH; export PATH PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
