Requirements for Installing Oracle 10gR2 32-bit on SLES 9
References
Applies to:
Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.5
UnitedLinux (32-bit)
Linux x86
Purpose
This note explains the requirements that need to be met for a successful installation of the new release 10.2.0.1 (a 1 DVD set which is the base release) on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 (SP2 or above), Linux x86.
It is NOT the purpose of this NOTE to repeat every "how-to" step that is presented in the 10gR2 Installation Guide manual. For example this NOTE does not include how to create the Linux OS account named "oracle", nor does it cover how to set environment variables. Both are adequate covered in Chapter 2 "Oracle Database Preinstallation Requirements" of the 10gR2 Installation Guide manual.
You can download the 10.2.0.1 from following URL. But you require a valid OTN account for download.

Scope and Application
This procedure is meant for those planning/trying to install Oracle Server 10.2.0.1.0 on SLES 9 on the x86 (32-bit) platform
Requirements for Installing Oracle 10gR2 32-bit on SLES 9
1. Hardware:
==========
* Minimum Hardware Requirements
- 1 GB (1024 MB) of physical RAM
- The following table describes the relationship between installed RAM and the configured swap space requirement.
RAM Swap Space
===== =============
Between 1024 MB and 2048 MB 1.5 times the size of RAM
Between 2049 MB and 8192 MB Equal to the size of RAM
More than 8192 MB 0.75 times the size of RAM
- 400 MB of disk space (and less than 2Tb of disk space) in the /tmp directory.
- 1.2 GB of disk space for a preconfigured database that uses file system storage (optional)
2. Software:
=========
(For your convenience, Note 334531.1, "Pre-Install checks for 10gR2 RDBMS (10.2.x) - Linux x86" is available to assist you in checking for the following installation pre-requisites)
* SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 SP2
o 2.6.5-7.191 (or newer)
* This list is based upon x86 SLES 9 "SP2". When a newer "service pack" level is used, the RPM release numbers (such as 2.6.5-7.191) may be slightly higher (such as 2.6.5-7.201 or 2.6.5-7.244). This is fine so long as you are still using x86 SLES 9 RPMs.
* Required OS Components (per Release Notes, and Quick Install Guide)
o gcc-3.3.3-43.34.i586.rpm. glibc-devel will be needed as a pre-requisite.
o libstdc++-devel-3.3.3-43.34.i586.rpm
o gcc-c++-3.3.3-43.34.i586.rpm
o gnome-libs-1.4.1.7-671.1.i586.rpm. db1 and orbit will be needed as a pre-requisite.
o sysstat-5.0.1-35.4.i586.rpm. plotutils and gnuplot will be needed as a pre-requisite.
* Additional Required OS Components (per the runInstaller OUI)
o none
* Additional Required OS Components (per this NOTE)
o Please do not rush, skip, or minimize this critical step. This list is based upon a "default-RPMs" installation of SLES 9. Additional RPMs (beyond anything known to Oracle) may be needed if a "less-than-default-RPMs" installation of SLES 9 is performed. For additional details, see Note <<386391.1>>, "Defining a "default RPMs" installation of the SLES OS"
o glibc-devel-2.3.3-98.47.i586.rpm (pre-requisite for gcc, as noted above)
o db1-1.85-85.1.i586.rpm (pre-requisite for gnome-libs, as noted above)
o orbit-0.5.17-330.1.i586.rpm (pre-requisite for gnome-libs, as noted above)
o plotutils-2.4.1-575.1.i586.rpm (pre-requisite for sysstat, as noted above)
o gnuplot-3.7.3-256.1.i586.rpm (pre-requisite for sysstat, as noted above)
All packages are all on the SLES 9 SP2 x86 (32-bit) distribution media, with the following exceptions:
(On the SLES 9 "base" (aka SP0) x86 distribution media)
db1-1.85-85.1.i586.rpm
orbit-0.5.17-330.1.i586.rpm
gnome-libs-1.4.1.7-671.1.i586.rpm
plotutils-2.4.1-575.1.i586.rpm
gnuplot-3.7.3-256.1.i586.rpm
3. Environment:
============
* Modify your kernel settings in /etc/sysctl.conf as follows. If the current value for any parameter is higher than the value listed in this table, do not change the value of that parameter.
kernel.shmall = physical RAM size / pagesize For most systems, this will be the value 2097152. See Note 301830.1 for more information.
kernel.shmmax = 1/2 of physical RAM, but not greater than 4GB. This would be the value 2147483648 for a system with 4Gb of physical RAM.
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
fs.file-max = 512 x processes (for example 65536 for 128 processes)
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
The runInstaller (OUI) checks may expect this to be the old guidance of “1024 65000”. The new guidance from Oracle development is “9000 65500”. Please allow the runInstaller (OUI) to proceed with the new guidance from Oracle development.
net.core.rmem_default=262144
net.core.rmem_max=2097152
net.core.wmem_default=262144
net.core.wmem_max=1048576
net.ipv4.tcp_wmem or net.ipv4.tcp_rmem are not needed, and not recommended. For additional information, please see NOTE 560590.1, “How and When to use the net.ipv4.tcp_rmem and net.ipv4.tcp_wmem Linux kernel Parameters”
To activate these new settings into the running kernel space, run the “sysctl –p” command
* Hostname command should return the fully qualified hostname as shown below:
% hostname --fqdn
hostname.domainname
* If any Java packages are installed on the system, unset the Java environment variables, for example JAVA_HOME.
* The oracle account used to install Oracle 10.2.0.X, should not have the Oracle install related variables set by default. For example setting ORACLE_HOME, PATH, LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include Oracle binaries in .profile, .login file and /etc/profile.d should be completely avoided.
4. Set Shell Limits for the oracle User, using appropriate section of the 10gR2 Quick Install Guide for x86.
- Add the following settings to /etc/security/limits.conf
oracle soft nproc 2047
oracle hard nproc 16384
oracle soft nofile 1024
oracle hard nofile 65536
- Add or edit the following line in the /etc/pam.d/xdm file, if it does not already exist:
session required pam_limits.so
- Add or edit the following line in the /etc/pam.d/su file, if it does not already exist:
session required pam_limits.so
- Add the following lines to /etc/profile.local:
if [ $USER = "oracle" ]; then
if [ $SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then
ulimit -p 16384
ulimit -n 65536
else
ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536
fi
fi
5. Create, change ownership, and change permissions of the $ORACLE_BASE directory, using the appropriate section of the 10gR2 Quick Install Guide for x86.
6. Configuring the oracle User's Environment, using the appropriate section of the 10gR2 Quick Install Guide for x86. Note that setting $ORACLE_BASE (not $ORACLE_HOME) in the environment will ease a couple of entries in the Oracle Universal Installer.
7. Now you are ready to invoke your Oracle Universal Installer. Be sure that you are LOGGED ON as the oracle account. Log directly into the install session. Do not use any variety of “su”.
ADDITIONAL NOTES
----------------
1. Supported Linux releases of Linux x86 (32-bit) can run on on AMD64/EM64T and Intel Processor Chips that adhere to the x86_64 architecture

o Oracle 32-bit running on AMD64/EM64T with 64-bit OS is not supported.
2. Asynchronous I/O on ext2 and ext3 file systems is supported if your scsi/fc driver supports that functionality.
3. No extra patch is required for the DIRECTIO support for x86.
