Installed an Oracle Database 10g certified version of Linux on a platform certified for that version of Linux. To see the latest certification information, use Metalink and select Certify & Availability. You can also use OTN.

512 MB of physical random access memory (RAM)

1 GB of swap space (or twice the size of RAM)

Swap space between one and two times the size of RAM (on systems with 2 GB or more of RAM)

400 MB of disk space in the /tmp directory

2.1 GB of disk space for the Oracle software and Sample Schema Database

Open a terminal window and log in as the root user.

The following local UNIX groups and user must exist on the system:

Groups: oinstall and dba
User: oracle

Optionally, the oper group can be created.

Group: oper

We now create the three groups oinstall, dba, and oper:

/usr/sbin/groupadd oinstall
/usr/sbin/groupadd dba
/usr/sbin/groupadd oper 

Create the operating system user oracle:

/usr/sbin/useradd -g oinstall -G dba,oper oracle

Enter the following command to set the password of the oracle user:

/usr/bin/passwd oracle

With an editor of your choosing, open /home/oracle/.bash_profile. If you are using another shell, please add the entries to the appropriate file.

umask 022

PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib 
        
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.1.0/db_1
ORACLE_SID=orcl
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH

export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID

Create the directory for the software installation and assign ownership to oracle:oinstall. In the example, you use /u01/app/oracle.

mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app
chmod -R 775 /u01/app

Set required kernel parameters:

Parameter                       Value
----------------------------    -----------------
kernel.semmsl                   250
kernel.semmns                   3200
kernel.semopm                   100
kernel.semmni                   128
kernel.shmall                   2097152
kernel.shmmax                   2147483648
kernel.shmmni                   4096
fs.file-max                     65536
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range    1024 65000

Open the /etc/sysctl.conf file in any text editor and add lines similar to the following:

kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
fs.file-max = 65536
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000

With specified values for these parameters in the /etc/sysctl.conf file, the values persist when you reboot the system.

The kernel changes made previously take effect with each reboot.

Issue this command to set the kernel parameters:

/sbin/sysctl -p

Log in as operating system user oracle. You must install the software from an X Window System workstation, an X terminal, or a PC or other system with X server software installed.

Completed the Configuring Linux for the Installation of Oracle Database 10g lesson.

Log in to the Linux box as user oracle and mount the Oracle Database 10g CD. Change directory to the CD and execute the script /mnt/cdrom/runInstaller from your home directory:

/mnt/cdrom/runInstaller

At the Welcome window, click Next.

You need to specify your Inventory directory. The location should be set to /u01/app/oracle/oraInventory. Accept the default Operating System group name, oinstall. Then click Next.

The following window appears. Leave this window open.

You need to execute orainstRoot.sh as the root user. Open a terminal window and enter the following commands:

su
<rootpassword>
cd /u01/app/oracle/oraInventory
./orainstRoot.sh
exit
exit

Switch back to the Universal Installer window and click Continue.

At the Specify File Locations window, change the path to /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.0/db_1. Then click Next.

Make sure the Installation Type Enterprise Edition is selected and click Next.

The installer now verifies that the system meets all the minimum requirements for installing and configuring the chosen product. Please correct any reported issues before continuing. When the check successfully completes, click Next.

You want to create a starter database. Make sure that Create a starter database and General Purpose are both selected. Then click Next.

Enter orcl.oracle.com in the Global Database Name field, and select the Create database with example schemas check box. Then click Next. If you plan to perform any of the multilingual lessons, you should select Unicode standard UTF-8 AL32UTF8 as the database character set.

The Select Database Management Option window enables you to choose between Database Control or Grid Control of your database. In this example, you accept the default, which is Database Control. Click Next.

Specify the database file location as /u01/app/oracle/oradata and click Next.

In the Specify Backup and Recovery Options window, you do not want to enable automated backups at this time. Accept the default and click Next.

Enter and confirm a password for all accounts, and then click Next.

Review the Summary window to verify what is to be installed. Then click Install.

The progress window appears.

The Configuration Assistants window appears.

Your database is now being created.

When the database is created, click OK.

When the Setup Privileges window appears, open a new terminal window.

You need to execute root.sh as the root user. From your terminal window, enter the following commands:

cd $ORACLE_BASE/product/10.1.0/db_1
su
<rootpassword>
./root.sh
exit
exit

The End of Installation summary appears. The ports shown in the summary can be found in $ORACLE_BASE/product/10.1.0/db_1/portlist.ini. Click OK.

Click Yes to exit.
