Backup ORACLE_HOME and INVENTORY

1. Shutdown Database (Not mandatory but prefer to shutdown)
2. Stop Listener (Not mandatory but prefer to shutdown)
3. Backup Oracle INVENTORY
4. Backup ORACLE_HOME

Restore ORACLE_HOME (Incase binary corruption then we can restore from backup)

1. Shutdown Database (Not mandatory but prefer to shutdown)

[oracle@rac1 ~]$ ps -ef | grep pmon
oracle   13474     1  0 15:29 ?        00:00:00 ora_pmon_DELL
oracle   13583 13414  0 15:30 pts/1    00:00:00 grep pmon
[oracle@rac1 ~]$ 

SQL> select name,open_mode from v$database;

NAME      OPEN_MODE
--------- --------------------
DELL      READ WRITE

SQL>

SQL> shut immediate;
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.

2. Stop Listener (Not mandatory but prefer to shutdown)

Stop any other processes running from ORACLE_HOME

[oracle@rac1 ~]$ ps -ef | grep tns

Install Oracle Software in silent mode 11gR2 (11.2.0.3)

Install

Install Oracle Software in silent mode 11gR2 (11.2.0.3)

1. Overview
2. Unzip software
3. Backup response file
4. Modify the response file
5. Install oracle software in Silent mode

Pre-requisites already been taken care like kernel parameters, add groups, profile and etc


1. Overview

Usually to install 11.2.0.3 database software we will use ./runInstaller graphical user interface.

Some times may not have access to a graphical user interface. 

Silent mode installation allows to configure necessary Oracle components without using graphical interface

In this case response file can be used to provide all the required information for the installation, so no additional user input is required.


2. Unzip software

[oracle@rac2 share]$ unzip database.zip


3. Backup response file

[oracle@rac2 share]$ cd database
[oracle@rac2 database]$ ls -ltr

3. Create Database using DBCA silent mode
4. Verify


1. Overview

Usually to create database we will use DBCA graphical user interface.

Some times may not have access to a graphical user interface then we can use the DBCA silent mode to create a database.


2. Set the Environment

[oracle@rac2 ~]$ export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.4/db_1
[oracle@rac2 ~]$ export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
[oracle@rac2 ~]$ which dbca

[oracle@rac2 ~]$

[oracle@rac2 ~]$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/oradata
[oracle@rac2 ~]$
-- No need to create folder POCNDEV, it will create automatically by dbca


3. Create Database using DBCA silent mode

[oracle@rac2 ~]$ dbca -silent -createDatabase -templateName General_Purpose.dbc -gdbName POCNDEV.rajasekhar.com -sid POCNDEV -sysPassword sys -systemPassword sys -emConfiguration NONE -datafileDestination /u01/app/oracle/oradata -storageType FS -characterSet AL32UTF8

Checking Memory/Swap/Disk size deails

— Check Physical RAM.
# grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo/*
We need at least 1024 MB of physical RAM.*/
— Check Swap Space.
# grep SwapTotal /proc/meminfo/*
RAM up to 1024MB then swap = 2 times the size of RAM
RAM between 2049MB and 8192MB then swap = equal to the size of RAM
RAM more than 8192MB then swap size = 0.75 times the size of RAM*/– Check space available in /tmp
# df -h /tmp/*
You need to have at least 400 MB of space in the /tmp directory.
*/– Check space for Oracle Software and pre-configured database.
# df -h

/*
Space requirement for Oracle Software:
Enterprise Edition 2.5G
Standard Edition 2.3G
Custom (maximum) 3G

Space requirement for Oracle Database Files:
1.2 G
*/

— To determine whether the system architecture can run the software, enter the following command:

# grep “model name” /proc/cpuinfo

/*
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.
*/

Unpack Files

unzip 10201_database_linux.zip

Hosts File
The “/etc/hosts” file must contain a fully qualified name for the server.

IP-address fully-qualified-machine-name machine-name

For example.

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.2.101 test.server.com test

Set Kernel Parameters

Add the following lines to the “/etc/sysctl.conf” file.

#kernel.shmall = 2097152
#kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
# semaphores: semmsl, semmns, semopm, semmni
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
#fs.file-max = 65536

net.core.rmem_max=262144
net.core.wmem_default=262144
net.core.wmem_max=262144

login as root and run the following command to change the current kernel parameters.

— Make the kernel parameters changes effective immediately:
/sbin/sysctl -p

Add the following lines to the “/etc/security/limits.conf” file.

* soft nproc 2047
* hard nproc 16384

passwd oracle

Create the directories in which the Oracle software will be installed.

mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
chmod -R 775 /u01

Login as root and issue the following command.

xhost +

Edit the “/etc/redhat-release” file replacing the current release information (Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5) with the following:

redhat-4

Login as the oracle user and add the following lines at the end of the “.bash_profile” file.

# Oracle Settings
