Step Install Oracle 10g R2 on Solaris 10 x86

Tags: Install Oracle 10g R2, Solaris 10 x86

Checking Requirement:

—————————-

#/usr/sbin/prtconf | grep “Memory size” [Check RAM size]
# /usr/sbin/swap -s [check swap]
# df -k /tmp [check /tmp size (>400mb)]
# uname -r [check solaris version]

# pkginfo -i SUNWarc SUNWbtool SUNWhea SUNWlibm SUNWlibms SUNWsprot SUNWsprox SUNWtoo SUNWi1of SUNWi1cs SUNWi15cs SUNWxwfnt

# cat /etc/nsswitch.conf | grep hosts
# hostname
# domainname

RUN INSTALL:
—————-
A. create group name “dba”, oracle inventory group “oinstall” and “oracle” user

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

{Determine oracle user exist or not
# id -a oracle
{if exist, should be look like this=
uid=440(oracle) gid=200(oinstall) groups=201(dba),202(oper)

{create oracle user=
# useradd -d /export/home/oracle -g dba -G oinstall -m -s /bin/ksh oracle

#mkdir /export/home/oracle
#chown oracle:dba /export/home/oracle

{set password=
# passwd -r files oracle

{to determine nobody user=
# id nobody
# /usr/sbin/useradd nobody >>run if does not exist

B. EDIT FILE /export/home/oracle/.profile
————————————–
umask 022
TMP=/tmp
TMPDIR=$TMP
DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
export TMP TMPDIR DISPLAY
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle [replace with ur Oracle base Directory]
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 [replace with ur Oracle home Directory]

ORACLE_SID=jktdb [replace with your database]
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID PATH

C. Configure Kernel Parameter
—————————–
Note: Do not follow the official installation instruction, they contain misleading and out errors of fact!

#projadd oracle [This command will create a new 'resource project']
edit the /etc/user_attr file:
adm::::profiles=Log Management
lp::::profiles=Printer Management
root::::auths=solaris.*,solaris.grant;profiles=Web Console Management,All;lock_after_retries=no

oracle::::project=oracle [add this line]

then:

#su – oracle
$ id -p
$ prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -i project oracle

The display look like this:
project: 100: oracle
NAME PRIVILEGE VALUE FLAG ACTION RECIPIENT
project.max-shm-memory
privileged 126MB – deny -
system 16.0EB max deny -

leaving the oracle user still connected in the original one Then, as root in the new terminal, you can issue this command:

#prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -v 4gb -r -i project oracle [create max memory to 4GB]

As soon as you’ve issued that command, switch back to the oracle user’s session and re-issue the earlier command:

$ prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -i project oracle

Note:
#prctl -n project.max-shm-memory -v 4gb -r -i project oracle [this setting will lost after reboot]
to set permanently, run this: #projmod -s -K “project.max-shm-memory=(priv,4gb,deny)” oracle

D. Performing the Oracle Installation
————————————-
#su – oracle
$xhost +
$export DISPLAY=localhost;0.0
$ xhost +<your-remote-pc-ipaddress> >>run this if you install from remote PC
$ cd /export/home/database/ [the source unzipped here]

./runInstaller

FOR SOLARIS SPARC:
====================
$ gunzip ship_rel10_sol64_db.cpio.gz
$ cpio -idm < ship_rel10_sol64_db.cpio

$./runInstaller

If you found unsufficient SWAP disk space on your disk, create folder under / then run this command:
—————————————————
$ TMP=/directory
$ TMPDIR=/directory
$ export TMP TMPDIR

Follow the screen>>NEXT>>NEXT

last, run this as root user:
—————————-
/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh
/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/root.sh

Create db:
———-
orc1
jktdb

E. 6.0 On-going Administration
——————————–
Finally, it’s time to get the web-based Enterprise Manager database administration tool up and running.
Since we’re using 10g Release 2, you should be able to launch a browser (Launch -> Web Browser) and simply navigate to : http://localhost:1158/em

If you do not know the correct port number to use, look for the following line in the $ORACLE_HOME/install/portlist.ini file.

in order to be able to log on as SYS with a password of whatever you supplied to the first screen of the Oracle installation wizard. In fact, getting a meaningful result at this point relies on three things having been performed successfully:

1. starting a listener (lsnrctl start)
2. opening the database (sqlplus / as sysdba then startup)
3. starting the Enterprise Manager agent (emctl start dbconsole)

F. Automating Database Startup
———————————————–
edit file “/var/opt/oracle/oratab” script to find lines with ‘Y’ at their ends
Create file “/etc/init.d/dbora”
——-
#!/bin/sh
ORA_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
ORA_OWNER=oracle

if [ ! -f $ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart ]
then
echo “Oracle startup: cannot start”
exit
fi

case “$1″ in
’start’)
su – $ORA_OWNER -c “$ORA_HOME/bin/dbstart”
;;
’stop’)
su – $ORA_OWNER -c “$ORA_HOME/bin/dbshut”
;;
esac

———
#chmod 777 /etc/init.d/dbora
#/etc/init.d/dbora stop

To integrate dbora file to standart Solaris startup and shutdown process:
————————————————————————
#ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc0.d/K01dbora
#ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc2.d/S99dbora

IF u found error this:
———————–
ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER is not SET, unable to auto-stop Oracle Net Listener

edit file “dbstart” & “dbshut”, find line $ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=$1

and change to = $ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1

RECOMMENDED DIRECTORY STRUCTURE:
———————————————-

[Oracle Base Directory:]
/u01/app/oracle
/u01/app/orauser
/opt/oracle/app/oracle

[Oracle Inventory Directory:]
ORACLE_BASE/oraInventory

[Oracle Home Directory:]

ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1

[Identify an existing oracle base directory:]
#more /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc
[the output should be:]

inventory_loc=/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory
inst_group=oinstall

# more /var/opt/oracle/oratab

*:/u03/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:N

*:/opt/orauser/infra_904:N

*:/oracle/9.2.0:N

COMMON INSTALLATION ERROR:
===========================
Unable to convert from “UTF-8″ to “646″ for NLS!
Solution: Install SUNWuiu8 package.

error adduser:
———————
UX: useradd: ERROR: Inconsistent password files. See pwconv(1M)

This is because the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files are out of synchronization on your machine. [CSCdi74894]
To fix this, run the pwconv command, and then rerun cwconfigure.

try to run:

wc -l /etc/passwd /etc/shadow

Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before continuing with theinstallation, at which time they will be rechecked.

1. Install SUNWxwplt package
2. Set DISPLAY variable
3. Execute xhost + on target (set in DISPLAY) computer

Solution : check server hostname and /etc/hosts
————————————————————————-

UNINSTALL ORACLE 10G:
———————
1. remove all database, by running $dbca
2. stop any oracle process running:
Database Control : $ORACLE_HOME/bin/emctl stop dbconsole
Oracle Net listener : $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl stop
iSQL*Plus : $ORACLE_HOME/bin/isqlplusctl stop
Ultra Search : $ORACLE_HOME/bin/searchctl stop

3. Start Oracle Universal installer:

$ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin/runInstaller

4. In the Welcome window, click Deinstall Products.
5. In the Inventory screen, select the Oracle home and the products that you want to remove,
then click Remove.
