STEP 1: PREREQUISITES

Packages:
First we need to install the required packages. These packages we can easily get
from OS officially repository.

# yum install -y
Host File:
The host file must contain a fully qualified name for the server.

127.0.0.1 oracle.techoism.net oracle


192.168.1.110 oracle.techoism.net oracle

Selinux:
Set secure Linux to permissive using selinux configuration file.

# vim /etc/sysconfig/selinx

Change the parameters.

SELINUX=permissive

Reboot the server or execute the mention command.

# setenforce Permissive

IPTables:
If on server Linux firewall is enabled, so you need to stop it and need to
configrure it.

For CentOS/RHEL 7
# systemctl stop firewalld
# systemctl disable firewalld
For CentOS/RHEL 6
# service iptables stop
# chkconfig iptables off

Step 2: Create User and Group

Oracle database will run with normal Linux user. So we need to create the user and
group for oracle.

# groupadd oinstall
# groupadd dba
# useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle

Set the oracle user password.

# passwd oracle

Step 3: Kernel Parameters

Now we need to configure our system before start the installation of Oracle
Database. Add mention kernel parameters in sysctl.conf file.

# vim /etc/sysctl.conf
Add the mention lines.

fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.file-max = 6815744
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 8329226240
kernel.shmmni = 4096
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 = 1048586

Reload the configuration file to reflect the changes.

# sysctl -p
# sysctl -a

Next, we need to configure some limits for the oracle user.

# vim /etc/security/limits.conf

oracle soft nproc 2047


oracle hard nproc 16384
oracle soft nofile 1024
oracle hard nofile 65536
oracle soft stack 10240
oracle hard stack 32768

Step 4: Configure X11 Forwarding


Step 5: Create the Directories

Before installing Oracle Database, create directories that will be used during the
Oracle installation, and provide the required permissions.

# mkdir /u01
# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
# chmod -R 775 /u01
# chmod g+s /u01

Step 6: Extract the File

Once you will download the Oracle database setup from Oracle official website.
Extract the Oracle files on a Linux server.

# cd /software
# unzip linuxx64_12201_Oracle_database.zip

Step 7: Install Oracle Database

Start the Oracle Database Installer issuing the following command in the database
directory.

# cd /software/database
# ./runInstaller

Step 8: Access Oracle Enterprise Manager


Step 9: Set Oracle Home Directory

Add the following lines in user home directory at .bash_profile file.

Step 10: Listener File Configuration


Step 11: Enabling Oracle to Start on System Boot
o enable the database service to start automatically on boot, create the service
file for oracle database and add the mention lines.

# vim /etc/systemd/system/oracle-rdbms.service

#/etc/systemd/system/oracle-rdbms.service
#Invoking Oracle scripts to start/shutdown Instances defined in /etc/oratab #and
starts Listener

[Unit]
Description=Oracle Database(s) and Listener
Requires=network.target

[Service]
Type=forking
Restart=no
ExecStart=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1/bin/dbstart
/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1
ExecStop=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1/bin/dbshut
/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1
User=oracle

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Finally, indicate to database to be brought up during boot.

# vim /etc/oratab

Find the mention line.

techoism:/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1:N

Replace ‘N’ with ‘Y’.

techoism:/u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1:Y
