GNU/Linux Oracle 6.x Installing Oracle 11g DB – QuickStart Guide

Hi! This an Easy and Step-by-Step Guide on Installing the Oracle 11g R2 Database in Oracle Enterprise GNU/Linux 6.x Desktop/Server.

And version 11g of the Oracle Database, which included built-in testing for changes, the capability of viewing Tables back in time, superior compression of all types of Data and enhanced disaster recovery functions.

The “g” stood for “Grid Computing,” which supports Clusters of Servers that are treated as a single unit.

The Process is somewhat Extended and Advanced so it Demand a Basic Command Line Confidence.

So Just Relax and Take the Time of Reading, Understanding and Executing Carefully the Instructions Contained here.

To the Post Bottom you Find Link to Oracle 11g Database Installation Troubleshooting Guides.

Install Oracle 11g DB on Oracle Linux 6.x - Featured
  1. Download the Oracle 11g R2 Database for Linux:
    Oracle 11g R2 .zip for Linux
    The Link Contains the List of Oracle 11g r2 Database Releases

  2. Open Terminal Window
    (Press “Enter” to Execute Commands) Or Login into Server Shell.

    Install Oracle 11g DB on Oracle Linux 6.x - GNOME Open Terminal
    In case first see: Terminal QuickStart Guide.

  3. Login as SuperUser:

    su 

  4. Make Network Configuration

    • Get hostname:

      hostname

    • Get IP:

      /sbin/ifconfig

      You will Find It Under the lo >> inet Section.

    • Check if Hostname is Already into the Enabled Hosts File.

      cat /etc/hosts
      If It’s Not Present then Insert it with:
      nano /etc/hosts

      Insert: <IP HOSTNAME>.

      Example: ‘127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain’

      Ctrl+Shift+v to Paste Content on nano
      Ctrl+x to Save and Exit
      from nano Editor :)

    • Grant Connection to X Server

      xhost +<hostIP>
      Example: # xhost +127.0.0.1

  5. Installing Required Packages

    sudo yum install binutils glibc compat-libstdc++-33 glibc-common
    glibc-devel glibc-headers elfutils-libelf elfutils-libelf-devel/nelfutils gcc gcc-c++ ksh libaio libaio-devel libgcc libstdc++-devel
    make numactl-devel sysstat mksh

  6. Add Groups and User

    groupadd -g 502 oinstall
    groupadd -g 503 dba
    groupadd -g 504 oper
    groupadd -g 505 asmadmin
    useradd -u 502 -g oinstall -G dba,asmadmin,oper oracle
    passwd oracle

  7. Make Target Directories

    mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/
    chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
    chmod -R 775 /u01

  8. Parameters Configuration SetUp

    • Edit /etc/sysctl.conf file.

      nano /etc/sysctl.conf
      Then hit Ctrl+x to Save and Exit from nano Editor Add or amend the following lines
      #### Oracle 11g Kernel Parameters ####
      fs.suid_dumpable = 1
      fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
      fs.file-max = 6815744
      kernel.shmall = 818227
      kernel.shmmax = 4189323264
      kernel.shmmni = 4096
      kernel.panic_on_oops = 1
      # semaphores: semmsl, semmns, semopm, semmni
      kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
      net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
      net.core.rmem_default=262144
      net.core.rmem_max=4194304
      net.core.wmem_default=262144
      net.core.wmem_max=1048576
      
      The Values of ‘shmall’ and ‘shmmax’ Need to be Customized following your System Memory Size.
      Here above is a Valid Setup for a 8Gb RAM Size!
      If you need to Change first Check your Phisical Memory Size with:
      cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal
      Then ‘shmall’ should be Set as:
      [RamKb] / 10
      And instead ‘shmmax’ as:
      [RamKb] * 1024 / 2
      For further Instructions See Oracle Documentation
      Comment out these lines below that Gives an Error
      #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 0
      #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 0
      #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables = 0

    • Edit /etc/security/limits.conf file.

      nano /etc/security/limits.conf
      Add the following lines
      #### oracle User Settings 4 Oracle 11g ####/noracle       soft  nproc  2047/noracle       hard  nproc  16384/noracle       soft  nofile 1024/noracle       hard  nofile 65536/noracle       soft  stack  10240
      

    • Disable SELINUX

      nano /etc/selinux/config
      Disable Secure Linux by editing the /etc/selinux/config file, making sure the SELINUX flag is set as follows.
      SELINUX=disabled
      

    • Load the New Kernel Parameters

      /sbin/sysctl -p

  9. Unzip the Oracle 11g Database, Set oracle as Owner and Relocate it into the oracle’s Home

    cd </path/To/linux_11gR2*.zip>
    unzip linux_11gR2_database_1of2.zip
    unzip linux_11gR2_database_2of2.zip
    chown -R oracle:oinstall database
    mv database /tmp

  10. Add Environment Variables to oracle’s .bashrc
    Login as oracle User

    su oracle
    Edit .bashrc file
    nano ~/.bashrc
    Insert:
    # Oracle Settings
    TMP=/tmp; export TMP
    TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR
    
    ORACLE_HOSTNAME=<HOSTNAME>; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME
    ORACLE_UNQNAME=DB11G; export ORACLE_UNQNAME
    ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1; export ORACLE_HOME
    ORACLE_SID=<DBSID>; export ORACLE_SID
    
    PATH=/usr/sbin:$PATH; export PATH
    PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
    
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/lib64; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
    
    Replace [HOSTNAME] with IP and [DBSID] with SID Name
    In this Example Respectively:
    • HOSTNAME = 127.0.0.1

    • DBSID = SID

    Load New .bashrc Settings

    source ~/.bashrc

    Last and Optional to Add Full Env-Integration edit also oracle’s .bashrc

    nano ~/.bashrc

    Inserting

    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
    source ~/.bashrc
    fi
