PURPOSE
--------------

This bulletin is produced to provide a central source for all the primary installation settings for the various mainstream unix platforms, e.g. IBM AIX, HP-UX, Oracle Solaris, Tru64, and Linux.

Careful comparison of the Installation Guide and the applicable release note for an OS/Oracle version has been done to ensure that this bulletin provides the most complete source of data in hopes that it will save time for each researching analyst.

Keeping the OS kernel current helps stabilize the system. Production systems should never run an out dated OS kernel version. As a best practice, Oracle recommends the OS kernel version be maintained to within 6 months of current. Please contact the OS vendor directly for more information, risk exposure, and patching recommendations.

NOTE: Pre-compilers requirements are no longer addressed in this note, for a single source note
that addresses Pre-compiler/Compiler requirements, please refer to:
Note 43208.1 Certified Compilers

SCOPE & APPLICATION
-------------------------------------

This focus of this bulletin is on assisting the Oracle Unix installation community in resolving installation issues of the RDBMS.
This bulletin places in one document all the pertinent information related to installations that has been extracted from three different documents (Installation Guides, Release Notes, and SRNs)

DISCLAIMER
------------

Whenever a contradiction arises between this document and My Oracle Support (MOS)-Certification, My Oracle Support (MOS)-Certification is the Certification authority.
Users of this bulletin are obligated to provide real-time corrections/updates in the form. of My Oracle Support (MOS) "Feedback" submissions to ensure the accuracy and up-to-date status of this bulletin.

PRE-INSTALLATION SCRIPTS
-------------------------------------

A decommissioned, non-supported script. is still available to verify that the system has been configured correctly according to the 8.0.5 through 9.2 Installation Guides, please refer to the following My Oracle Support (MOS) Note for details:

Note 189256.1 "UNIX: Script. to Verify Installation Requirements for Oracle 8.0.5 to 9.2 versions of RDBMS"

The Remote Diagnostic Agent RDA (see Note 314422.1 for more info on RDA) has the capability to run a Pre-Installation check on several 10.1 and 10.2 Unix/Linux Platforms.
Please refer to Note 250262.1 for specifics on how to run these Pre-Install scripts on your server.

OPatch FAQ
-------------------------------------

To apply one-off patches and Critical Patch Updates (CPUs) or Patch Set Update (PSU) on 9.2 and higer RDBMS versions you have to use the patching utility, OPatch.
Oracle Support requests you always use the latest version before applying any patches to your server, to get the latest version,

AIX Kernel Settings set AIXTHREAD_SCOPE=S in the environment:
export AIXTHREAD_SCOPE=S

NOTE: This is only necessary on AIX5L. A change was introduced in AIX 6.1 which means that the variable does not need to be set. See section 5.5 (page 217) of the IBM AIX Version 6.1 Differences Guide

From Section 2.5 of the 11.2 Install Guide for AIX:

2.5 Verifying UDP and TCP Kernel Parameters

Use NDD to ensure that the kernel TCP/IP ephemeral port range is broad enough to provide enough ephemeral ports for the anticipated server workload. Ensure that the lower range is set to at least 9000 or higher, to avoid Well Known ports, and to avoid ports in the Registered Ports range commonly used by Oracle and other server ports. Set the port range high enough to avoid reserved ports for any applications you may intend to use. If the lower value of the range you have is greater than 9000, and the range is large enough for your anticipated workload, then you can ignore OUI warnings regarding the ephemeral port range.

Use the following command to check your current range for ephemeral ports:

# /usr/sbin/no -a | fgrep ephemeral
tcp_ephemeral_low = 32768
tcp_ephemeral_high = 65535
udp_ephemeral_low = 32768
udp_ephemeral_high = 65535

In the preceding example, the TCP and UDP ephemeral ports are set to the default range (32768-65536).

If you expect your workload to require a high number of ephemeral ports, such as high node counts or heavy use of Parallel Query, then update the UDP and TCP ephemeral port range to a broader range. For example:

# /usr/sbin/no -p -o tcp_ephemeral_low=9000 -o tcp_ephemeral_high=65500
# /usr/sbin/no -p -o udp_ephemeral_low=9000 -o udp_ephemeral_high=65500

Automatic Memory Management
Starting with Oracle Database 11g, the Automatic Memory Management feature requires more shared memory (/dev/shm) and file descriptors. The shared memory should be sized to be at least the greater of MEMORY_MAX_TARGET and MEMORY_TARGET for each Oracle instance on the computer. To determine the amount of shared memory available, enter the following command: # df -k /dev/shm/

Note: MEMORY_MAX_TARGET and MEMORY_TARGET cannot be used when LOCK_SGA is enabled or with huge pages on Linux

1. Put gcc296 and g++296 first in $PATH variable by creating the following symbolic links. These are required for the relinking of some Oracle binaries (as root)
# mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc323
# mv /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++323
# ln -s /usr/bin/gcc296 /usr/bin/gcc
# ln -s /usr/bin/g++296 /usr/bin/g++

2. hostname command should return the fully qualified hostname as shown below:
- # hostname
- hostname.domainname

3. If any Java packages are installed on the system, unset the Java environment variables, for example JAVA_HOME.

4. Define and export the environment variable LD_ASSUME_KERNEL before starting the install process:
- $ export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19

5. Relink error for ins_oemagent.mk - Click ignore and complete the install. Apply the patch 3119415

6. Apply 9.2.0.4 patchset (patch 3095277) for Linux Itanium in order to be certified and supported.

SuSE SLES9
The following requirements are needed for a successful installation of Oracle 9iR2 Linux Itanium on SuSE SLES9:
1. Apply 9.2.0.5 patchset (patch 3501955).
2. After installing 9.2.0.5 patchset you must install patch 4566648 to fix the following 2 issues
4566551: BACKING STORE (BSP) NEEDS PROPER ALIGNING FOR SLES9
4566614: BSP(BACKING STORE) VALUE SHOULD BE CHECKED BEFORE COPYING THE MEMORY SEGMENT
3. There is a known issue, where creation of JavaVM fails during custom DB creation. Please use the workaround described as follows in case of custom Database creation.

Remove the following eight shared libraries from $ORACLE_HOME/javavm/admin/ and restore them else where before starting database creation.

An error is generated while installing Oracle Database 10.2.0.1 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 Update 2 or later and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 withservice pack 2 or later. Most of the times, the error is generated when you perform. any of the following tasks:

While installing Oracle Database 10.2.0.1 after a fresh and complete installation of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4.0 Update 2While installing Oracle Database 10.2.0.1 after a fresh and complete installation of SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 with service pack 2 or laterWhen you start dbca or netca from the command line or Oracle Universal Installer, if Standard installation is selected
Workaround: Before installing Oracle Database 10g release 2, verify the contents of the /etc/resolv.conf file. Edit the file to make the following change:
Change the line similar to:
domain=my.net.com
To:
search=my.net.com
The original /etc/resolve.conf file can be restored after the database installation is complete.

You must install the IBM XL C/C++ Advanced Edition V7.0 for Linux Runtime Environment Component and XL Optimization Libraries component from the following link:IBM linkThis URL contains information and installation instructions. All the above installations must to be done before installing Oracle database. On SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, install the following components:

The RTE component: vacpp.rte.70.sles9.jan2006.update.tar.gzThe XL Optimization Libraries: vac.lib.70.sles9.tar
On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, install the following components:The RTE component: vacpp.rte.70.rhel4.dec2005.update.tar.gzThe XL Optimization Libraries: vac.lib.70.rhel4.tar

$ rpm -qa | grep "package name"

To see if a particular RPM is installed (with the architectur):
$ rpm -qa --qf "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}_%{ARCH}\\n" | grep "package name"

To see what RPM provided a particular object/library:
$ rpm -q --whatprovides --qf "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}_%{ARCH}\\n" "full path/library name"

To see the contents listing of an RPM:
$ rpm -ql "RPM name"
