Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8

Hey,
Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8. The problem I met was: we followed the installation guide from the documentation. And we selected the choice "install software only". After it was done successfully, we run Database Configuration Assistant utility to create a database instance. But finally it always tried to create the instance at the root directory ( / ) which doesn't have enough space and then failed. The case was that we have set the enviroment parameters: $ORACLE_BASE = /export/mydata, $ORACLE_HOME = /export/apps/oracle9i. That means it should be installed at /export/mydata, but it didn't. Any help or advice are welcome. Thanks.
Simon

I have downloaded Oracle 11G R2 version from Windows and extracted it in Windows and copied it into DVD after extraction in two folders. Now I am mounting that DVD in Solaris 10 installed in my VMware . I made a new directory named as 'installation ' under /export/home/oracle and copied the folders from DVD to 'installation' folder. Now I am entering installation folder and try to do ./runInstaller as 'oracle ' user and getting the error mentioned before.

  • Installation of  oracle 10g rac on open solaris  for X86 Machine

    Hi
    Can you please let me know the advantages of installation of oracle 10g rac on open solaris on x86 machine.And also let me know the detail steps involved in instatllation of oracle 10g rac on open solaris on x86. please suggest the recommdendation for the installation
    Thanks
    Saiprasath

    If by "advantages of installation of oracle 10g rac on open solaris on x86 machine" you mean advantages over RAC on Linux or AIX or HP/UX there aren't any.
    If you want to know the advantages of RAC over stand-alone they generally relate to:
    1. Eliminating the server as a single point of failure
    2. Transparent fail-over
    2. Incremental horizontal scalability

  • Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 5.10/64 bit version.Is that supported ?

    I want to install Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 10 64 bit. Is that officially supported ?
    I dont this combination on metalink certify matrix

    I know we dont get support from oracle.But, you initially mentioned that you couldn't find the required information on metalink, therefore I provided that information, which I thought you were looking for.
    Is anybody still using this combination ? Does it work ? yes, we are using it and it has been working fine for over 4 years...of course we patched it to the latest - 9.2.0.8 to be on the supported release/patch.

  • Installation BOBJ XI 3 on UNIX ( Sun Solaris ) with Oracle database

    Hi All,
    I want to deploy and install BOBJ XI Enterprise 3.1 on Sun Solaris with oracle database.
    My question is, do we need to add some oracle licenses stuff in BOBJ XI Enterprise server or we just using a connection from Sun Solaris to oracle database ?
    Pls Advise,
    Rgds,
    Denny

    Hi Denny,
    the risk is the same whatever DB server you are using. Once you have a setup where more than one application access the server, overload caused by one application can influence the performance of the other ones. You have to check if your DB vendor offers tools to monitor and limit the load on your DB server. But we are talking hypothetically now. I would recommend to check what's the actual load on your oracle DB server. If the server is not working at the limit (let's over 80% all the time), then I think that you can try to install BOBJ also in an existing oracle instance on the oracle server. You can reduce the risk and make the maintenance easier if you setup a dedicated oracle instance on your DB server just for the BOBJ repository.

  • DO I need SFRAC for Oracle 10g RAC  on Sun Solaris

    My platform is SUN Solaris 10 64 bit on v490 server. On the backend side, we are using EMC CX500 storage. We will use Veritas File system and Veritas CFS.
    I would like to ask, Do I must need SFRAC to configure Oracle 10g RAC or Can I just use only Oracle CRS. I do not want to use ASM.
    Please advise
    Thanks,
    Sam..

    The VCFS usually requires a Veritas Cluster, thus you would have to use the product combination that is bundled as SFRAC as mentioned before. Metalink in addition says:
    10      10gR2 64-bit      Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC      5.0      Certified
    There is one exception to this rule: Linux.
    Veritas and Oracle support a standalone version of the Veritas Cluster Files System (and only this component) on Linux. This does not hold true for Solaris.
    Concluding, if you want to use the VCFS you would need to get a VCS, which then basically means using SFRAC.
    However, in this case, as mentioned before, you would not need ASM.

  • BPEL Server installation on JBOSS application Server on SUN SOLARIS

    I have a question about Oracle BPEL installation. For our project exists the requirement, to install BPEL Server on SUN SOLARIS, whereby the appropriate Version of Application server JBOSS already exists and it should be used.
    The version of the Oracle BPEL server for JBOSS, which we found on the Download side, is made available only with JBOSS (version 3.2.6) in a Package.
    During the BPEL server installation this bound JBOSS server version is installed automatically, without giving selection. Is there a BPEL installation for JBOSS on SUN-SOLARIS, which can be installed at the already existing JBOSS server?

    Hi There,
    Dis you get any good responces to your question ?

  • Oracle 11g R2 for Sun Solaris???

    When will be release the version for Sun Solaris?
    Is there any way to check the release date for each Oracle version? (e.g. 10.2, 11.1, etc)
    Thanks,

    Well if you check at this link http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/index.html
    You will see that 11.1.07 is for Windows ServerActually, you might note that it is for Windows Server *2008*. OS qualifiers are fairly important. Sentences may sort of trail off to noth
    What you download from the freely available site,and what is the current version with patches applied is often a different thing.
    The freely available 'for learning and prototyping' downloads (from the site you mention) are NOT updated to a new patch level. (If necessary, they may be revised to fix bugs that stop them for being installed, but they keep the same point level.)
    If a version of the OS is released after the s/w has been made available, and there are problems installing or using that combination, Oracle MAY decide to fix, apply patch set and and make available the s/w for that specific OS.
    And if you are waiting for 11.2 because you don't have Support and can't get 11.1.0.7 patch, then I express concern for your management's approach. Missing CPUs and other patches is not a good idea for production.

  • Dropping oracle 8i database on sun solaris platform

    greetings
    i have an oracle 8.1.7 database sitting on a sun solaris 8 server that i have to drop. can anyone give me the steps involved?

    On unix database don't depend on any kind of OS service. It don't register it self in registry. So droping the database on any UNIX flaver is very simple, just delete all the database files, Redolog files,control file,spfile,password file
    You can find the datafiles dba_data_files, v$datafile
    Redolog v$logfiles
    controlfiles v$controlfiles
