To log in as the root user, complete one of the following procedures: ■ If you are installing the software from an X Window System workstation or X terminal, then perform the following: Note: 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. 3 1. Start a local terminal session, for example, an X terminal (xterm). 2. If you are not installing the software on the local system, then enter the following command to enable the remote host to display X applications on the local X server: $ xhost fully_qualified_remote_host_name For example: $ xhost somehost.us.example.com 3. If you are not installing the software on the local system, then use the ssh, rlogin, or telnet command to connect to the system where you want to install the software: $ telnet fully_qualified_remote_host_name 4. If you are not logged in as the root user, then enter the following command to switch user to root: $ su - password: # ■ If you are installing the software from a PC or other system with X server software installed, then: 1. Start the X server software. 2. Configure the security settings of the X server software to permit remote hosts to display X applications on the local system. 3. Connect to the remote system where you want to install the software, and start a terminal session on that system, for example, an X terminal (xterm). 4. If you are not logged in as the root user on the remote system, then enter the following command to switch user to root: $ su - password: # 3 Checking the Hardware Requirements The system must meet the following minimum hardware requirements: ■ Memory Requirements ■ System Architecture ■ Disk Space Requirements Note: If necessary, refer to your X server documentation for more information about completing this procedure. Depending on the X server software that you are using, you may need to complete the tasks in a different order. 4 3.1 Memory Requirements The following are the memory requirements for installing Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2): ■ At least 1 GB of RAM To determine the physical RAM size, enter the following command: # /usr/sbin/prtconf | grep "Memory size" If the size of the physical RAM is less than the required size, then you must install more memory before continuing. ■ The following table describes the relationship between installed RAM and the configured swap space requirement: To determine the size of the configured swap space, enter the following command: # /usr/sbin/swap -l If necessary, refer to the operating system documentation for information about how to configure additional swap space. ■ To determine the available RAM and swap space, enter the following command: # sar -r -i n where, n is the number of seconds to delay for the next iterations and i is the number of iterations you want to test. 3.2 System Architecture To determine whether the system architecture can run the software, enter the following command: Note: On Solaris, if you use non-swappable memory, like ISM, then you should deduct the memory allocated to this space from the available RAM before calculating swap space. RAM Swap Space Between 1 GB and 2 GB 1.5 times the size of RAM Between 2 GB and 16 GB Equal to the size of RAM More than 16 GB 16 GB Note: The output of this command shows the total/available swap blocks, where each block is equal to 512 bytes and not 1 KB. Note: Oracle recommends that you take multiple values for the available RAM and swap space before freezing on a value. This is because the available RAM and swap space keep changing depending on the user interactions with the computer. 5 # /bin/isainfo -kv This command displays the processor type. Verify that the processor architecture matches the Oracle software release that you want to install. If you do not see the expected output, then you cannot install the software on this system. 3.3 Disk Space Requirements The following are the disk space requirements for installing Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2): ■ At least 1 GB of disk space in the /tmp directory To determine the amount of disk space available in the /tmp directory, enter the following command: # df -k /tmp This command displays disk space in 1 kilobyte blocks. On most systems, you can use the df command with the -h flag (df -h) to display output in "human-readable" format If there is less than 1 GB of free disk space available in the /tmp directory, then complete one of the following steps: ■ Delete unnecessary files from the /tmp directory to meet the disk space requirement. ■ Set the TMP and TMPDIR environment variables when setting the oracle user’s environment. ■ Extend the file system that contains the /tmp directory. If necessary, contact the system administrator for information about extending file systems. ■ To determine the amount of free disk space on the system, enter the following command: # df -k ■ The following table shows the approximate disk space requirements for software files for each installation type: Additional disk space, either on a file system or on an Automatic Storage Management disk group is required for the fast recovery area if you choose to configure automated backups. See Also: "Configuring the oracle User’s Environment" for more information on setting TMP and TMPDIR Installation Type Requirement for Software Files (GB) Enterprise Edition 4.68 Standard Edition 4.62 Standard Edition One 4.62 Custom (Enterprise Edition + custom install options) 4.71 6 4 Checking the Software Requirements Depending on the products that you intend to install, verify that the following software are installed on the system. ■ Operating System Requirements ■ Package Requirements ■ Compiler Requirements ■ Additional Software Requirements ■ Patch Requirements 4.1 Operating System Requirements The following are the operating system requirements for Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2): ■ Solaris 10 U6 (5.10-2008.10) To determine the distribution and version of Solaris installed, enter the following command: # uname -r 5.10 In this example, the version shown is Solaris 10 (5.10).

The following patches are required for Solaris Operating System (SPARC 64-Bit) if you are using the flash cache feature: 125555-03 140796-01 140899-01 141016-01 139555-08 141414-10 141736-05 9 To determine whether an operating system patch is installed, enter a command similar to the following: # /usr/sbin/patchadd -p | grep patch_number(without version number) For example, to determine if any version of the 119963 patch is installed, use the following command: # /usr/sbin/patchadd -p | grep 119963 If an operating system patch is not installed, then download it from the following Web site and install it: http://sunsolve.sun.com 5 Creating Required Operating System Groups and User The following local operating system groups and users are required if you are installing Oracle Database: ■ The Oracle Inventory group (typically, oinstall) ■ The OSDBA group (typically, dba) ■ The Oracle software owner (typically, oracle) ■ The OSOPER group (Optional. Typically, oper) To determine whether these groups and users already exist, and if necessary, to create them, follow these steps: 1. To determine whether the oinstall group exists, enter the following command: # more /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc If the output of this command shows the oinstall group name, then the group already exists. If the oraInst.loc file exists, then the output from this command is similar to the following: inventory_loc=/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory inst_group=oinstall The inst_group parameter shows the name of the Oracle Inventory group, oinstall. 2. To determine whether the dba group exists, enter the following command: # grep dba /etc/group If the output from this commands shows the dba group name, then the group already exists. 3. If necessary, enter the following commands to create the oinstall and dba groups: # /usr/sbin/groupadd oinstall # /usr/sbin/groupadd dba 4. To determine whether the oracle user exists and belongs to the correct groups, enter the following command: # id -a oracle 10 If the oracle user exists, this command displays information about the groups to which the user belongs. The output should be similar to the following, indicating that oinstall is the primary group and dba is a secondary group: uid=440(oracle) gid=200(oinstall) groups=201(dba),202(oper) 5. If necessary, complete one of the following actions: ■ If the oracle user exists, but its primary group is not oinstall or it is not a member of the dba group, then enter the following command: # /usr/sbin/usermod -g oinstall -G dba oracle ■ If the oracle user does not exist, enter the following command to create it: # /usr/sbin/useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle This command creates the oracle user and specifies oinstall as the primary group and dba as the secondary group. 6. Enter the following command to set the password of the oracle user: # passwd -r files oracle 6 Configuring Kernel Parameters on Solaris 10 On Solaris 10, verify that the kernel parameters shown in the following table are set to values greater than or equal to the recommended value shown. The table also contains the resource controls that replace the /etc/system file for a specific kernel parameter. As Oracle Database does not set project information when starting processes, some /etc/system processes that are deprecated but not removed must still be set for Oracle Database. Note: ■ The kernel parameter and shell limit values shown in this section are recommended values only. For production database systems, Oracle recommends that you tune these values to optimize the performance of the system. Refer to your operating system documentation for more information about tuning kernel parameters. ■ On Solaris 10, you are not required to make changes to the /etc/system file to implement the System V IPC. Solaris 10 uses the resource control facility for its implementation. However, Oracle recommends that you set both resource control and /etc/system/ parameters. Operating system parameters not replaced by resource controls continue to affect performance and security on Solaris 10 systems. For further information, contact your Sun vendor. Parameter Replaced by Resource Control Recommended Value noexec_user_stack NA 1 11 Use the following procedure to view the current value specified for resource controls, and to change them if necessary: 1. To display the current values of the resource control, enter the following commands: $ id -p // to verify the project id uid=100(oracle) gid=100(dba) projid=1 (group.dba) $ prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -i project group.dba $ prctl -n project.max-sem-ids -i project group.dba 2. If you must change any of the current values, then: a. To modify the value of max-shm-memory to 6 GB: # prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -v 6gb -r -i project group.dba b. To modify the value of max-sem-ids to 256: # prctl -n project.max-sem-ids -v 256 -r -i project group.dba Use the following procedure to modify the resource control project settings, so that they persist after a system restart: 1. By default, Oracle instances are run as the oracle user of the dba group. A project with the name group.dba is created to serve as the default project for the oracle user. Run the command id to verify the default project for the oracle user: # su - oracle $ id -p uid=100(oracle) gid=100(dba) projid=100(group.dba) $ exit 2. To set the maximum shared memory size to 2 GB, run the projmod command: # projmod -sK "project.max-shm-memory=(privileged,2G,deny)" group.dba Alternatively, add the resource control value project.max-shm-memory=(privileged,2147483648,deny) to the last field of the project entries for the Oracle project. semsys:seminfo_semmni project.max-sem-ids 100 semsys:seminfo_semmns NA 1024 semsys:seminfo_semmsl process.max-sem-nsems 256 semsys:seminfo_semvmx NA 32767 shmsys:shminfo_shmmax project.max-shm-memory 4294967295 shmsys:shminfo_shmmni project.max-shm-ids 100 Note: When you use the prctl command (Resource Control) to change system parameters, you do not need to restart the system for these parameter changes to take effect. However, the changed parameters do not persist after a system restart. Parameter Replaced by Resource Control Recommended Value 12 3. After these steps are complete, check the values for the /etc/project file using the following command: # cat /etc/project The output should be similar to the following: system:0:::: user.root:1:::: noproject:2:::: default:3:::: group.staff:10:::: group.dba:100:Oracle default project:::project.max-shmmemory=(privileged,2147483648,deny) 4. To verify that the resource control is active, check process ownership, and run the commands id and prctl, as in the following example: # su - oracle $ id -p uid=100(oracle) gid=100(dba) projid=100(group.dba) $ prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -i process $$ process: 5754: -bash NAME PRIVILEGE VALUE FLAG ACTION RECIPIENT project.max-shm-memory privileged 2.00GB - deny 7 Creating Required Directories Create directories with names similar to the following, and specify the correct owner, group, and permissions for them: ■ The Oracle base directory ■ An optional Oracle data file directory Before you create an Oracle base directory, you must identify an appropriate file system with sufficient free disk space. To determine where to create these directories: 1. Enter the following command to display information about all mounted file systems: # df -k Note: The value for the maximum shared memory depends on the SGA requirements and should be set to a value greater than the SGA size. For additional information, refer to the Solaris Tunable Parameters Reference Manual. Note: If you do not want to create a separate Oracle data file directory, you can install the data files in a subdirectory of the Oracle base directory. However, this is not recommended for production databases. 13 This command displays information about all the file systems mounted on the system, including: ■ The physical device name ■ The total amount, used amount, and available amount of disk space, in kilobytes ■ The mount point directory for that file system 2. From the display, identify either one or two file systems that meet the disk space requirements mentioned earlier in this section. 3. Note the name of the mount point directory for each file system that you identified. In the following examples, /u01 is the mount point directory used for the software, and /u02 is the mount point directory used for the Oracle data file directory. You must specify the appropriate mount point directories for the file systems on your system. To create the required directories and specify the correct owner, group, and permissions for them: 1. Enter the following command to create subdirectories in the mount point directory that you identified for the Oracle base directory: # mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle 2. If you intend to use a second file system for the Oracle Database files, then create an oradata subdirectory in the mount point directory that you identified for the Oracle data file directory (shown as /u02 in the examples): # mkdir /u02/oradata 3. Change the owner and group of the directories that you created to the oracle user and the oinstall group: # chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app/oracle # chown -R oracle:oinstall /u02/oradata 4. Change the permissions on the directories that you created to 775: # chmod -R 775 /u01/app/oracle # chmod -R 775 /u02/oradata 8 Configuring the oracle User’s Environment You run Oracle Universal Installer from the oracle account. However, before you start Oracle Universal Installer, you must configure the environment of the oracle user. To configure the environment, you must: ■ Set the default file mode creation mask (umask) to 022 in the shell startup file. ■ Set the DISPLAY environment variable. To set the oracle user’s environment: Note: In the following procedure, replace /u01 and /u02 with the appropriate mount point directories that you identified in Step 3 previously. 14 1. Start a new terminal session. 2. Enter the following command to ensure that X Window applications can display on this system: $ xhost fully_qualified_remote_host_name 3. Complete one of the following steps: ■ If the terminal session is not connected to the system where you want to install the software, then log in to that system as the oracle user. ■ If the terminal session is connected to the system where you want to install the software, then switch user to oracle: $ su - oracle 4. To determine the default shell for the oracle user, enter the following command: $ echo $SHELL 5. Open the oracle user’s shell startup file in any text editor: ■ C shell (csh or tcsh): % vi .login 6. Enter or edit the following line in the shell startup file, specifying a value of 022 for the default file mode creation mask: umask 022 7. If the ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME, or ORACLE_BASE environment variable is set in the file, then remove the appropriate lines from the file. 8. Save the file, and exit from the editor. 9. To run the shell startup script, enter the following command: ■ Bourne shell, Bash shell on SUSE, or Korn shell: $ . ./.profile ■ C shell: % source ./.login 10. If you are not installing the software on the local computer, then run the following command on the remote computer to set the DISPLAY variable: ■ Bourne, Bash or Korn shell: $ export DISPLAY=local_host:0.0 ■ C shell: % setenv DISPLAY local_host:0.0 In this example, local_host is the host name or IP address of the local computer that you want to use to display Oracle Universal Installer. Run the following command on the remote computer to check if the shell and the DISPLAY environmental variable are set correctly: echo $SHELL 15 echo $DISPLAY Now to enable X applications, run the following commands on the local computer: $ xhost + fully_qualified_remote_host_name To verify that X applications display is set properly, run a X11 based program that comes with the operating system such as xclock: $ xclock_path In this example, xclock_path is the directory path. For example, you can find xclock at /usr/X11R6/bin/xclocks. If the DISPLAY variable is set properly, then you can see xclock on your computer screen. 11. If you determined that the /tmp directory had insufficient free disk space when checking the hardware requirements, then enter the following commands to set the TMP and TMPDIR environment variables. Specify a directory on a file system with sufficient free disk space. ■ Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell: $ TMP=/directory $ TMPDIR=/directory $ export TMP TMPDIR ■ C shell: % setenv TEMP /directory % setenv TMPDIR /directory 12. Enter commands similar to the following to set the ORACLE_BASE and ORACLE_ SID environment variables: ■ Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell: $ ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle $ ORACLE_SID=sales $ export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_SID ■ C shell: % setenv ORACLE_BASE /u01/app/oracle % setenv ORACLE_SID sales In these examples, /u01/app/oracle is the Oracle base directory that you created earlier, and sales is the name that you want to call the database (typically no more than five characters). 13. Enter the following commands to ensure that the ORACLE_HOME and TNS_ADMIN environment variables are not set: ■ Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell: $ unset ORACLE_HOME $ unset TNS_ADMIN ■ C shell: See Also: PC-X Server or Operating System vendor documents for further assistance 16 % unsetenv ORACLE_HOME % unsetenv TNS_ADMIN 14. To verify that the environment has been set correctly, enter the following commands: $ umask $ env | more Verify that the umask command displays a value of 22, 022, or 0022 and the environment variables that you set in this section have the correct values. 9 Mounting the Product Disc On most Solaris systems, the product disc mounts automatically when you insert it into the drive. If the disc does not mount automatically, then follow these steps to mount it: 1. Switch user to root: $ su - root 2. If necessary, enter a command similar to the following to eject the currently mounted disc, then remove it from the drive: # eject 3. Insert the disc into the disc drive. 4. To verify that the disc mounted automatically, enter a command similar to the following: # ls /dvd/dvd0 5. If this command fails to display the contents of the disc, then enter a command similar to the following: # /usr/sbin/mount -r -F hsfs /dev/dsk/cxtydzs2 /dvd In this example, /dvd is the disc mount point directory and /dev/dsk/cxtydzs2 is the device name for the disc device, for example /dev/dsk/c0t2d0s2. 6. If Oracle Universal Installer displays the Disk Location dialog box, then enter the disc mount point directory path. For example: ■ Disc mounted automatically: /dvd/dvd0 ■ Disc mounted manually: /dvd 10 Installing Oracle Database After configuring the oracle user’s environment, start Oracle Universal Installer and install Oracle Database as follows: 1. To start Oracle Universal Installer, enter the following command: 17 $ /mount_point/db/runInstaller If Oracle Universal Installer does not start, then refer to Oracle Database Installation Guide for information about how to troubleshoot X Window display problems. 2. The following table describes the recommended action for each Oracle Universal Installer screen. Use the following guidelines to complete the installation: ■ If you need more assistance, or if you want to choose an option that is not a default, then click Help for additional information. ■ If you encounter errors while installing or linking the software, then refer to Oracle Database Installation Guide for information about troubleshooting.
