This guide describes how to quickly install Oracle Database 10g on Linux systems. It includes information about the following:

  1. Documentation Accessibility

1 Review Information About this Guide

This guide describes how to install Oracle Database 10g using the default installation options.


Tasks Described in this Guide

The procedures in this guide describe how to:

  • Configure your system to support Oracle Database 10g

  • Install the Oracle Database 10g software on a local file system

  • Configure a general-purpose Oracle database that uses the local file system for database file storage

  • Install software from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD which improves the performance of Oracle Database 10g on your system


Results of a Successful Installation

After you successfully install Oracle Database 10g:

  • The database that you created and the default Oracle Net listener process are running on the system

  • Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control and iSQL*Plus are running and can be accessed using a Web browser

  • A single-node version of the Oracle Cluster Synchronization Services (CSS) daemon is running and is configured to start automatically when your system boots


Tasks Not Described in this Guide

This guide does not describe how to complete the following tasks:

  • Installing the software on a system that has an existing Oracle software installation

  • Installing Oracle Cluster Ready Services (CRS) and Oracle Real Application Clusters (RAC) on a cluster

  • Enabling Enterprise Manager e-mail notifications or automated backups

  • Using alternative storage options such as Automatic Storage Management (ASM) or raw devices for database storage


Where to Get Additional Installation Information

For more detailed information about installing Oracle Database 10g, including information about the tasks not described in this guide, see one of the following guides:

  • If you are installing the software on a single system, see the Oracle Database Installation Guide for UNIX Systems.

  • If you are installing Oracle Real Application Clusters, see the Oracle Real Application Clusters Installation and Configuration Guide.

    This guide also describes how to install Oracle Cluster Ready Services, which is a prerequisite for RAC installations.

Both of these guides are available on the product disc. To access them, use a Web browser to open the welcome.htm file, either in the top-level directory of the CD-ROM or in the db directory on the DVD-ROM, then select the Documentation tab.

2 Log In to the System as root

Before you install the Oracle software, you must complete several tasks as the root user. To log in as the root user, complete one of the following procedures:


Note:

You must install the software from an X window workstation, an X terminal, or a PC or other system with X server software installed.

  • If you are installing the software from an X Window System workstation or X terminal:

    1. Start a local terminal session, for example, an X terminal (xterm).

    2. If you are not installing the software on the local system, enter the following command to enable remote hosts to display X applications on the local X server:

      $ xhost +

    3. If you want to install the software on a remote system, enter a command similar to the following to connect to that system:

      $ telnet remote_host

    4. If you are not logged in as the root user, enter the following command to switch user to root:

      $ su - root
      password:
      #

  • If you are installing the software from a PC or other system with X server software installed:


    Note:

    If necessary, see 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.

    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, enter the following command to switch user to root:

      $ su - root
      password:
      #

3 Check the Hardware Requirements

The system must meet the following minimum hardware requirements:

Requirement Minimum Value
Physical memory (RAM) 512 MB (524288 KB)
Swap space 1 GB (1048576 KB) or twice the size of RAM

On systems with 2 GB or more of RAM, the swap space can be between one and two times the size of RAM

Disk space in /tmp 400 MB (409600 KB)
Disk space for software files 2.5 GB (2621440 KB)

This value includes 1 GB (1048576 KB) of disk space required to install the Oracle Database 10g Products from the Companion CD (optional, but recommended).

Disk space for database files 1.2 GB (1258290 KB)

To ensure that the system meets these requirements, follow these steps:

  1. To determine the physical RAM size, enter the following command:

    # grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo

    If the size of the physical RAM installed in the system is less than 512 MB, you must install more memory before continuing.

  2. To determine the size of the configured swap space, enter the following command:

    # grep SwapTotal /proc/meminfo

    If necessary, see your operating system documentation for information about how to configure additional swap space.

  3. To determine the amount of free disk space available in the /tmp directory, enter the following command:

    # df -k /tmp

    If there is less than 400 MB of disk space available in the /tmp directory, complete one of the following steps:

    • Delete unnecessary files from the /tmp directory to achieve the required disk space.

    • Set the TEMP and TMPDIR environment variables when setting the oracle user’s environment (described later).

    • Extend the file system that contains the /tmp directory. If necessary, contact your system administrator for information about extending file systems.

  4. To determine the amount of free disk space available on the system, enter the following command:

    # df -k

    This command displays the disk space usage on all mounted file systems. To complete the installation, the system must satisfy either of the following conditions:

    • 3.7 GB (3879731 KB) of free disk space is available on two file systems: one with at least 2.5 GB (2621440 KB) free for the Oracle software and another with at least 1.2 GB free for the preconfigured database

    • 3.7 GB of free disk space is available for the Oracle software and database on a single file system


      Note:

      While installing the Oracle database on a disk drive separate from the software does provide a performance improvement, for best performance, the Oracle database files should be distributed across three or more disks. The Oracle Database Installation Guide for UNIX Systems describes this more complex and time-consuming type of installation. However, this type of installation is recommended only for experienced users.

4 Check the Software Requirements

The system must meet the following minimum software requirements, depending on your Linux distribution and version.


Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES/AS 2.1 (x86)
  • Gnu gcc package, gcc-2.96.108.1 or higher

  • The following packages (or higher versions) must be also be installed:

    make-3.79
    binutils-2.11
    openmotif-2.1.30

  • Kernel errata 25 (e.25) or higher (RHSA-2003:195-06)

  • glibc 2.2.4-31 errata or higher (RHSA-2003:022-09)


Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES/AS 3 (x86)
  • Gnu gcc package, gcc-3.2.3-2 or higher

  • The following packages (or higher versions) must be also be installed:

    make-3.79
    binutils-2.11
    openmotif-2.2.2-16
    setarch-1.3-1
    compat-db-4.0.14.5
    compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.122
    compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.122
    compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.122
    compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.122

  • No errata are currently required.


UnitedLinux 1.0 (x86)
  • Service Pack 3 (SP3) or higher (kernel version 2.4.21-138)

  • Gnu gcc package, gcc-3.2.2-38 or higher

  • The following packages (or higher versions) must be also be installed:

    make-3.79
    binutils-2.12
    openmotif-2.2.2-124

To ensure that the system meets these requirements, follow these steps:

  1. To determine which distribution and version of Linux is installed, enter the following command:

    # cat /etc/issue


    Note:

    Only listed distributions and versions are currently certified and supported.

  2. To determine whether the required packages are installed, enter a command similar to the following:

    $ rpm -q package_name

    If a required package is not installed, install it from your operating system distribution media, or download it from the vendor’s Web site.

  3. On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 2.1 systems only, follow these steps:

    1. To determine whether kernel update RHSA-2003:195-06 or later is installed, enter the following command:

      # uname -r
      2.4.9-e.25

      This command shows the kernel version (2.4.9) and errata level (e.25). If the errata level is less than 25, install the latest kernel update. See the following Web site for information on kernel update RHSA-2003:195-06:



    2. To determine whether fix RHSA-2003:022-09 is installed, enter the following command:

      # rpm -q glibc
      glibc-2.2.4-31

      If the version shown is less than 2.2.4-31, see the following Web site for information on fix RHSA-2003:022-09:



  4. On UnitedLinux 1.0 systems only, enter the following command to determine whether Service Pack 3 is installed:

    # uname -r
    2.4.21-138-default

    This command shows the kernel version (2.4.21-138) and type (default). If the kernel version is less than 2.4.21-138, contact your UnitedLinux vendor for information about obtaining and installing Service Pack 3.

5 Create Required UNIX Groups and User

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

  • The oinstall group (the Oracle Inventory group)

  • The dba group (the OSDBA group)

  • The oracle user (the Oracle software owner)

The oinstall and dba groups and the oracle user may already exist on your system. To determine whether they exist already, and if necessary, to create them, follow these steps:

  1. To determine whether the oinstall and dba groups exist, enter the following commands:

    # grep oinstall /etc/group
    # grep dba /etc/group

    If the output from these commands shows the specified group name, that group already exists.

  2. If necessary, enter the following commands to create the oinstall and dba groups:

    # /usr/sbin/groupadd oinstall
    # /usr/sbin/groupadd dba

  3. To determine whether the oracle user exists and belongs to the correct groups, enter the following command:

    # id oracle

    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=502(oracle) gid=502(oinstall) groups=502(oinstall),503(dba)

  4. 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, 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

      • dba as the secondary group

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

    # passwd oracle

6 Create Required Directories

Create directories with names similar to the following and specify the correct owner, group, and permissions for them:

  • /u01/app/oracle (the Oracle base directory)

  • /u02/oradata (an optional Oracle datafile directory)

The Oracle base directory must have 2.5 GB (2621440 KB) of free disk space, or 3.7 GB (3879731 KB) of free disk space if you choose not to create a separate Oracle datafile directory. The Oracle datafile directory must have 1.2 GB of free disk space.


Note:

If you do not want to create a separate Oracle datafile directory, you can install the datafiles in a subdirectory of the Oracle base directory (not recommended for production databases).

To determine where to create these directories, follow these steps:

  1. Enter the following command to display information about all mounted file systems:

    # df -k

    This command displays information about all of 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 following requirements:

    • Two file systems:

      Identify one file system with 2.5 GB of free disk space, for the Oracle base directory, and another file system with 1.2 GB of free disk space for the Oracle datafile directory.

    • One file system:

      Identify one file system with 3.7 GB of free disk space, for both the Oracle base directory and the Oracle datafile directory.

  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 datafile 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, follow these steps:


Note:

In the following procedure, replace /u01 and /u02 with the appropriate mount point directories that you identified in Step 3 previously.

  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, create an oradata subdirectory in the mount point directory that you identified for the Oracle datafile 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 /u02/oradata

  4. Change the permissions on the directories that you created to 775:

    # chmod -R 775 /u01/app/oracle /u02/oradata

7 Configure Kernel Parameters

Verify that the kernel parameters shown in the following table are set to values greater than or equal to the recommended value shown. The procedure following the table describes how to verify and set the values.

Parameter Value File
semmsl
semmns
semopm
semmni
250
32000
100
128
/proc/sys/kernel/sem
shmall 2097152 /proc/sys/kernel/shmall
shmmax Half the size of physical memory /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
shmmni 4096 /proc/sys/kernel/shmmni
file-max 65536 /proc/sys/fs/file-max
ip_local_port_range 1024 65000 /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range


Note:

If the current value for any parameter is higher than the value listed in this table, do not change the value of that parameter.

To view the current value specified for these kernel parameters, and to change them if necessary, follow these steps:

  1. Enter commands similar to the following to view the current values of the kernel parameters:


    Note:

    Make a note of the current values and identify any values that you must change.

    Parameter Command
    semmsl, semmns, semopm, and semmni # /sbin/sysctl -a | grep sem

    This command displays the value of the semaphore parameters in the order listed.

    shmall, shmmax, and shmmni # /sbin/sysctl -a | grep shm
    file-max # /sbin/sysctl -a | grep file-max
    ip_local_port_range # /sbin/sysctl -a | grep ip_local_port_range

    This command displays a range of port numbers.


  2. If the value of any kernel parameter is different to the recommended value, complete the following steps:

    1. Using any text editor, create or edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file and add or edit lines similar to the following:


      Note:

      Include lines only for the kernel parameter values that you want to change. For the semaphore parameters (kernel.sem), you must specify all four values. However, if any of the current values are larger than the recommended value, specify the larger value.

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

      By specifying the values in the /etc/sysctl.conf file, they persist when you reboot the system.

    2. Enter the following command to change the current values of the kernel parameters:

      # /sbin/sysctl -p

      Review the output from this command to verify that the values are correct. If the values are incorrect, edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file, then enter this command again.

    3. On UnitedLinux only, enter the following command to cause the system to read the /etc/sysctl.conf file when it reboots:

      # /sbin/chkconfig boot.sysctl on


Set Shell Limits for the oracle User

To improve the performance of the software on Linux systems, you must increase the following shell limits for the oracle user:

Shell Limit Item in limits.conf Hard Limit
Maximum number of open file descriptors nofile 65536
Maximum number of processes available to a single user nproc 16384

To increase the shell limits:

  1. Add the following lines to /etc/security/limits.conf file:

    *               soft    nproc   2047
    * hard nproc 16384
    * soft nofile 1024
    * hard nofile 65536

  2. Add the following line to the /etc/pam.d/login file, if it does not already exist:

    session    required     /lib/security/pam_limits.so

  3. Depending on the oracle user's default shell, make the following changes to the default shell start-up file:

    • For the Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell, add the following lines to the /etc/profile file (or the /etc/profile.local file on UnitedLinux systems):

      if [ $USER = "oracle" ]; then
      if [ $SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then
      ulimit -p 16384
      ulimit -n 65536
      else
      ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536
      fi
      fi

    • For the C or tcsh shell, add the following lines to the /etc/csh.login file (or the /etc/csh.login.local file on UnitedLinux systems):

      if ( $USER == "oracle" ) then
      limit maxproc 16384
      limit descriptors 65536
      endif

8 Mount the Product Disc

The Oracle Database 10g software is available on both CD-ROM and DVD-ROM. These discs are in ISO 9660 format with Rockridge extensions.

On most Linux systems, the product disc mounts automatically when you insert it into the drive. To verify that the disc is mounted correctly, follow these steps:

  1. If necessary, enter a command similar to following to eject the currently mounted disc, then remove it from the drive:

    • Red Hat:

      # eject /mnt/cdrom

    • UnitedLinux:

      # eject /media/cdrom

    In this example, /mnt/cdrom or /media/cdrom is the mount point directory for the CD-ROM drive, depending on your distribution.

  2. Insert the disc into the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive.

  3. To verify that the disc mounted automatically, enter a command similar to the following:

    • Red Hat:

      $ ls /mnt/cdrom

    • UnitedLinux:

      $ ls /media/cdrom

  4. If this command fails to display the contents of the disc, enter commands similar to the following, depending on your distribution:

    • Red Hat:

      $ su - root
      # mount /mnt/cdrom

    • UnitedLinux:

      $ su - root
      # mount /media/cdrom

9 Log In as the oracle User and Configure the oracle User’s Environment

You run the Installer from the oracle account. However, before you start the 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, ORACLE_BASE, and ORACLE_SID environment variables.

To set the oracle user’s environment, follow these steps:

  1. Start another terminal session.

  2. Enter the following command to ensure that X Window applications can display on this system:

    $ xhost +

  3. Complete one of the following steps:

    • If the terminal session is not connected to the system where you want to install the software, 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, 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:

    • Bash shell (bash) on Red Hat:

      $ vi .bash_profile

    • Bourne shell (sh), Bash shell on UnitedLinux, or Korn shell (ksh):

      $ vi .profile

    • 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 creation mask:

    umask 022

  7. Save the file and exit from the editor.

  8. To run the shell startup script, enter the following command:

    • Bash shell on Red Hat:

      $ . ./.bash_profile

    • Bourne shell, Bash shell on UnitedLinux, or Korn shell:

      $ . ./.profile

    • C shell:

      % source ./.login

  9. If you determined that the /tmp directory had insufficient free disk space when checking the hardware requirements, enter the following commands to set the TEMP and TMPDIR environment variables. Specify a directory on a file system with sufficient free disk space.

    • Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:

      $ TEMP=/directory
      $ TMPDIR=/directory
      $ export TEMP TMPDIR

    • C shell:

      % setenv TEMP /directory
      % setenv TMPDIR /directory

  10. If you are not installing the software on the local system, enter the following command to direct X applications to display on the local system:

    • Bourne, Bash, or Korn shell:

      $ DISPLAY=local_host:0.0 ; export DISPLAY

    • C shell:

      % setenv DISPLAY local_host:0.0

    In this example, local_host is the host name or IP address of the system you want to use to display the Installer (your workstation or PC).

  11. 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).

  12. 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:

      % unsetenv ORACLE_HOME
      % unsetenv TNS_ADMIN

  13. 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 022 and the environment variables that you set in this section have the correct values.

10 Install Oracle Database 10g

After configuring the oracle user’s environment, start the Installer and install the Oracle software, as follows:


Note:

The following examples show paths to the runInstaller script on a CD-ROM. If you are installing the software from DVD-ROM, use a command similar to the following:
$ /mount_point/db/runInstaller

  1. To start the Installer, enter the following commands:

    • Red Hat:

      $ cd /tmp
      $ /mnt/cdrom/runInstaller

    • UnitedLinux:

      $ cd /tmp
      $ /media/cdrom/runInstaller

    If the Installer does not appear, see the Oracle Database Installation Guide for UNIX Systems for information about how to troubleshoot X display problems.

  2. Use the following guidelines to complete the installation:

    • The following table describes the recommended action for each Installer screen.


      Note:

      If you have completed the tasks listed previously, you can complete the installation by choosing the default values on most screens.

    • If you need more assistance, or if you want to choose an option that is not a default, click Help for additional information.

    • If you encounter errors while installing or linking the software, see the Oracle Database Installation Guide for UNIX Systems for information about troubleshooting.

    Screen Recommended Action
    Welcome Click Next.
    Specify Inventory Directory and Credentials Note: This screen appears only during the first installation of Oracle products on a system.

    Specify the following information, then click Next:

    Enter the full path of the inventory directory

    Verify that the path is similar to the following, where oracle_base is the value that you specified for the ORACLE_BASE environment variable:

    oracle_base/oraInventory

    Specify operating system group name

    Verify that the group specified is the Oracle Inventory group:

    oinstall
    Run orainstRoot.sh If prompted, run the following script in a separate terminal window as the root user:
    oracle_base/oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh
    Specify File Locations In the Destination section, verify that the Path value for the Oracle home directory is similar to the following, then click Next:
    oracle_base/product/10.1.0/db_1
    Select Installation Type Select Enterprise Edition or Standard Edition, then click Next.
    Product-Specific Prerequisite Checks Verify that all of the prerequisite checks succeed, then click Next.

    The Installer checks the system to verify that it is configured correctly to run Oracle software. If you have completed all of the pre-installation steps in this guide, all of the checks should pass.

    In some circumstances, a check might fail even if you have completed all of the pre-installation steps. For example, you might have installed a later patch that obsoletes one of those listed in this guide.

11 Install Products from the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD

The Oracle Database 10g Companion CD contains products that improve the performance of or complement Oracle Database 10g. For most installations, Oracle recommends that you install Oracle Database 10g Products from the Companion CD.


Note:

If you intend to use Oracle JVM or Oracle interMedia, you must install Oracle Database 10g Products from the Companion CD. This installation optimizes the performance of those products on your system.


Products Included on the Companion CD

The Companion CD includes two sets of products:

  • Oracle Database 10g Products

    Includes Oracle Database Examples, natively compiled Java libraries for Oracle JVM and Oracle interMedia, Oracle Text supplied knowledge bases, and Legato Single Server Version (LSSV)


    Note:

    You must install these products into the same Oracle home directory as Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0).

  • Oracle Database 10g Companion Products

    Includes Oracle HTTP Server and Oracle HTML DB


    Note:

    You must install Oracle HTTP Server into its own Oracle home directory. You must install Oracle HTML DB either with Oracle HTTP Server, or into an Oracle home directory that contains Oracle HTTP Server.

The following subsection describes how to install Oracle Database 10g Products. For more information about the products on the Companion CD, and for more detailed information about installing them, see the Oracle Database Companion CD Installation Guide which is located on the Companion CD.


Installing Oracle Database 10g Products

To install Oracle Database 10g Products, follow these steps:

  1. As the root user, mount the Oracle Database 10g Companion CD CD-ROM or the Oracle Database 10g DVD-ROM.

    For more information about mounting discs, see .

12 What to Do Next

To become familiar with this release of Oracle Database, Oracle suggests that you complete the following tasks:

  • Log in to Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control using a Web browser.

    Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control is a Web-based application that you can use to manage a single Oracle database. The default URL for Database Control is:

    http://host.domain:5500/em/

    To log in, use the user name SYS and connect as SYSDBA. Use the password that you specified for this user during the Oracle Database 10g installation.

  • See Chapter 4 of the Oracle Database Installation Guide for UNIX Systems for information about required and optional post-installation tasks, depending on the products that you want to use.

  • Review Chapter 5 in the Oracle Database Installation Guide for UNIX Systems for information about how to use Database Control to learn about the configuration of your installed database.

  • Read the Oracle Database 2 Day DBA guide, to learn more about using Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control to administer a database.

    This guide, designed for new Oracle DBAs, describes how to use Database Control to manage all aspects of an Oracle database installation. It also provides information about how to enable e-mail notifications and automated backups, which you might not have configured during the installation.
