1) 2 hrs Install Sun Solaris 8 Operating System

Refer- Page 11 of 18 for UNIX file system configuration

2) 15 min Check Hardware Requirements

Minimal Memory: 256 MBMinimal Swap Space: Twice the amount of the RAM

To determine the amount of RAM memory installed on your system, enter thefollowing command.

$ /usr/sbin/prtconf | grep "Memory size"

Memory size: 1024 Megabytes -

To determine the amount of SWAP installed on your system, enter the followingcommand and multiply the BLOCKS column by 512. Divide this value by 1024again 1024. We get the size in MB

$ swap l

blocks

4198368

swap size = (4198368 * 512) /(1024 * 1024) = 2049 KB

To determine whether the system architecture is 64-bit, enter the followingcommand

$ /bin/isainfo -kv64-bit sparcv9 kernel modules

3) 1 hr Operating System Software Requirements

Use the latest kernel patch from Sun Microsystems.

- Download the Patch from: http://sunsolve.sun.com/8_Recommended.zip

- Read the README File included in the Patch- Usually the only thing you have to do is:


3/22

$ cd $ ./install_custer$ cat /var/sadm/install_data/_log

$ showrev -p

- Reboot the system

To determine your current operating system information:

$ uname a

SunOS mnhmdb 5.8 Generic_117000-01 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraSPARC-IIi-cEngine

To determine which operating system patches are installed:

$ showrev -p

To determine which operating system packages are installed:

$ pkginfo -i [package_name]

pkginfo -i SUNWarc SUNWbtool SUNWhea SUNWlibm SUNWlibms \SUNWsprot SUNWsprox SUNWtoo SUNWi1of SUNWi1cs SUNWi15csSUNWxwfntsystem SUNWarc Archive Librariessystem SUNWbtool CCS tools bundled with SunOSsystem SUNWhea SunOS Header Filessystem SUNWi15cs X11 ISO8859-15 Codeset Supportsystem SUNWi1cs X11 ISO8859-1 Codeset Supportsystem SUNWi1of ISO-8859-1 (Latin-1) Optional Fontssystem SUNWlibm Sun WorkShop Bundled libmsystem SUNWlibms Sun WorkShop Bundled shared libmsystem SUNWsprot Solaris Bundled toolssystem SUNWsprox Sun WorkShop Bundled 64-bit make librarysystem SUNWtoo Programming Toolssystem SUNWxwfnt X Window System platform required fonts

To determine if your X-windows system is working properly on your local system,but you can redirect the X-windows output to another system (connect as oracle92user).

$ xclock

To determine if you are using the correct system executables:

$ /usr/bin/which make$ /usr/bin/which ar$ /usr/bin/which ld$ /usr/bin/which nm

Each of the four commands above should point to the/usr/ccs/bin directory. If not,add /usr/ccs/bin to the beginning of the PATH environment variable in the currentshell.

Note: Once to set path properly in .profile for oracle user then this commands willstart working

4)Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

The JRE shipped with Oracle9i is used by Oracle Java applications such as theOracle Universal Installer is the only one supported. You should not modify thisJRE, unless it is done through a patch provided by Oracle Support Services. Theinventory can contain multiple versions of the JRE, each of which can be used byone or more products or releases. The Installer creates the oraInventory directorythe first time it is run to keep an inventory of products that it installs on yoursystem as well as other installation information. The location of oraInventory is

defined in /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc. Products in an ORACLE_HOME accessthe JRE through a symbolic link in $ORACLE_HOME/JRE to the actuallocation of a JRE within the inventory. You should not modify the symbolic link.

5) 15 min Check Software Limits

Oracle9i includes native support for files greater than 2 GB. Check your shell todetermine whether it will impose a limit.

To check current soft shell limits, enter the following command:


5/22


5 of 22

$ ulimit Sa

time(seconds) unlimited

file(blocks) unlimiteddata(kbytes) unlimitedstack(kbytes) 8192coredump(blocks) unlimitednofiles(descriptors) 256memory(kbytes) unlimited

To check maximum hard limits, enter the following command:

$ ulimit -Ha

The file (blocks) value should be multiplied by 512 to obtain the maximum filesize imposed by the shell. A value of unlimited is the operating system default andis the maximum value of 1 TB.

time(seconds) unlimitedfile(blocks) unlimiteddata(kbytes) unlimitedstack(kbytes) unlimitednofiles(descriptors) 1024memory(kbytes) unlimited

6) 30 min Setup the Solaris Kernel

Set to the sum of the PROCESSES parameter for each Oracle database, adding thelargest one twice, then add an additional 10 for each database. For example,consider a system that has three Oracle instances with the PROCESSES parameterin theirinitSID.ora files set to the following values:

ORACLE_SID=TYP1, PROCESSES=100ORACLE_SID=TYP2, PROCESSES=100ORACLE_SID=TYP3, PROCESSES=200

The value of SEMMNS is calculated as follows:

SEMMNS = [(A=100) + (B=100)] + [(C=200) * 2] + [(# of instances=3) * 10] =630

Setting parameters too high for the operating system can prevent the machine frombooting up. Refer to Sun Microsystems Sun SPARC Solaris system administrationdocumentation for parameter limits.

7) 15 min Create Unix Group oradba92

$ groupadd oradba92$ groupadd oinstall

8)

Create Unix User oracle92

$ useradd -d /app_users/home/oracle92 -m -s /bin/ksh -g oinstall -G oradba92oracle92

This command creates the oracle92 user and specifies:

oinstall as the primary group

oradba92 as the secondary group

Change the owner and group of the directories that you created to the oracle92 userand the oinstall group:

$ chown -R oracle92:oinstall /oracle

Change the permissions on the directories that you created to 775:

$ chmod -R 775 /oracle

9) 15 min Setup ORACLE environment ($HOME/.profile) as follows

Create .profile connected as oracle92 usersu oracle92vi .profile

10) Install from CD-ROM ...

Usually the CD-ROM will be mounted automatically by the Solaris VolumeManager, if not, do it as follows as user root.

$ su root$ mkdir /cdrom$ mount -r -F hsfs /dev/.... /cdrom

exit or CTRL-D

11) 15 min Unpacking installation files

$ cd


8/22


8 of 22

$ mkdir Disk1 Disk2 Disk3$ cd Disk1$ cat solaris64_9.2.0.1.0.Disk3.cpio1 | cpio -icd

This will extract all the files for Disk1, repeat steps for Disk2 and Disk3. Now youshould have three directories (Disk1, Disk2 and Disk3) containing installationfiles.

12) 2 hr Install with Installer in interactive mode

Install Oracle 9i with Oracle Installer

$ cd /Disk1$ DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY

$ export DISPLAY$ ./runInstaller

Note: See the screen shots at the end

Answer the questions in the Installer, we use the following install directories

Inventory Location: /oracle/oraInventoryOracle Universal Installer in: /oracle/product/ouiJava Runtime Environment in: /oracle/product/jre/1.1.8

Edit the Database Startup Script/var/opt/oracle/oratab

TYP2:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0:Y

13) Create the Database using dbca

14) Automatically Start / Stop the Database

cd /var/opt/oracle/oratab

Note: You should then change the 'N' entry to 'Y' for the line with your

database ORACLE_SID.

ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/product/920 export ORACLE_HOME

16) Issues Faced and Solutions

1) Problem: SunNetra T105 didnt had a console to install the OperatingSystem

Solution: Connected a laptop and using COM1 could install theOperating SystemStart programs accessories communications hyperterminal -op COM1 bits per second 9600 Enter Enter

2) Problem Media IssueDuring installation of Operating System at one point the system wasHanging, tried 2 or 3 times.Solution Replaced the Operating System CDs with Original CDsand problem was solved

3) Problem Console IssueAfter the installation was done, we removed the Laptop and I wastrying to connect through HummingBird, but was unable to connect


10/22

Solution: Should comment # CONSOLE in /etc/default/loginWe are not able to do using Laptop, so we just created a user

(dummy). Using telnet and using desktop m/c we connected as thatuser (dummy) then connected as root and modified login file.

vi /etc/default/login and comment CONSOLE

# If CONSOLE is set, root can only login on that device.# Comment this line out to allow remote login by root.

#CONSOLE=/dev/consolevi /etc/profile PATH=$PATH:/opt/sfw/bin

4) Problem: During installation of Oracle9r2 had issues in setting

DISPLAY variableGot the error Cant connect to X11 windowSolution: DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAYAlways set DISPLAY to the workstation u are installing not thedatabase server machine

5> Semaphores were not getting displayed/usr/sbin/sysdef | grep SEM

After changing the parameters in /etc/system - reboot the machine$ rebootCheck the shared memory parameters using$ sysdef -i

If they have not changed, load the shared memory module using$ modload /kernel/sys/shmsysmodload /kernel/sys/shmsysmodload /kernel/sys/semsys
