EBS fresh installation

Hello Experts,
I've to install fresh EBS R12 instance on 64-bit machine with Linux OS, I've some questions about that, if any kindly can provide answers:
1. I've 16GB RAM, is it necessary to configure 32GB swap area for it?
2. The document (Doc ID 761566.1) states:
"net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range: values recommended for the local port range may need to be adjusted according to the specific needs of the user's environment in order to avoid port conflicts."
Why do we set this parameter and does it affect Network or conflicts with any other server?
3. The document states:
"kernel.shmall: The listed value is the minimum requirement - we recommend an actual setting that is at least equal to the sum of all the SGAs on the system, divided by the page size."
I'm going to install a fresh instance, how do I configure this setting?
4. What is "Oracle Business Accelerator for EBS"? does it require different settings/steps than a normal EBS installation?
Please help.
Thanks & regards
Aneel Ahmed

Just use the same values mentioned in the doc.

  • Fresh Installation Boot Errors

    I'm new to trying to work with Solaris 10, and to a lot of Solaris in general, so while I'd normally be happy to do a lot of reading (and have tried searching for answers on google a good deal already), I'm having a problem after a fresh installation of Solaris 10 on a Sparc T3-1 server that I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to solve.
    During the install I told the text installer I wanted to do a ZFS installation using both of my disks (only 2) in a mirrored configuration. I selected the default set of core system packages.
    After the install seemed to be done and the system rebooted, I'm getting the following when it comes up:
    Boot device: /pci@400/pci@1/pci@0/pci@4/scsi@0/disk@w5000c5003a04f911,0:a File and args:

    After doing a new install off of the install media (cd) I would have expected the system to be able to boot without errors, but obviously I've missed something or done something wrong, and I'm hoping that someone can point me in the right direction for figuring out what that is and fixing it.
    I'm happy to provide any other details if there are questions.

    I do see a few messages in the installation log that give me concern. The first is:

  • Oracle 10g RMAN is not working in RHEL 4 after fresh installation

    I downloaded Oracle 10g R2 from OTN at home for self study.
    I have problem with the RMAN after fresh installation Oracle 10g in RedHat Enterprise Linux AS 4. (x86)
    Everything seems works fine, database mounted including EM, SQLPlus, iSQLPlus etc.
    But when I attempt to execute RMAN command on the terminal, nothing is happening. No RMAN prompt, No error message!
    I ran the "relink all" command but no helps.
    Please advice.

    I guess you are a common Linux 'victim', you don't invoke Oracle's rman, but a Linux executable:

    Check your PATH variable, you may move $ORACLE_HOME/bin to the top.

    It is Command+r or for the online internet system it is Command+option/Alt+r keys. Then you use Disk Utility to erase the macintosh partition, from the built in recovery hd, or you can repartition the drive as one partition from the online system.
    To actually get to the online internet system you have to hold that key combo down until you see a globe on the screen. Otherwise it will just boot from the built in recovery hd on the internal drive.

  • [SOLVED] Pacman is broken on fresh installation

    I've just performed a fresh installation that seemed to go fine, following the Official Arch Linux Install Guide.  However, I get the following during my first login:
    Arch Linux 2.6.39-ARCH (myhost) (tty1)
    myhost login: root
    Password:
    [root@myhost ~]# pacman -Sy
    :: Synchronizing package databases...
    error: local database version is too old
    error: failed to init transaction (database is incorrect version)
    try running pacman-db-upgrade
    error: transaction already initiated
    [root@myhost ~]#
    I realize the error recommends that I run pacman-db-upgrade, but it seems very out-of-the-ordinary to encounter this error after having installed fresh with all default options.  Could someone give me a hand?

    What exactly do you mean by "failing"? Please post the errors you get.
    But first, grab a fresh mirrorlist http://www.archlinux.org/mirrorlist/ and try to update again.
    I agree with picking an updated mirror. If packages are "failing," then the mirrors may be out of sync. Also, the list of mirrors included on the ISO CD may be out of date.

  • [SOLVED] Cannot install packages during a fresh installation

    Hi all,
    I'm pretty sure I'm missing something from the wiki/forums, but I'm at a loss here...
    I am going through a fresh installation of Arch. I am using AIF and stopped at step 4 "Prepare hard drive(s)". I intend to install on btrfs, so I went to a different console via ALT-F2, logged in as root and tried installing gptfdisk via "pacman -S gptfdisk". I got  a few errors such as:
    - error: could not open file /var/lib/pacman/sync/core.db: Failed to open '/var lib/pacman/sync/core.db'
    (the rest of the errors pertain to the other available repositories)
    I made sure to choose core and extras in AIF's step 1: "Select source".
    What completely obvious thing am I missing here...?
    Thanks.

  • U410 running really slow even after fresh installation

    I bought an ideapad u410 a little over an year ago. It came pre loaded with windows 8. It had been running slow for some time. The machine would almost take 10 mins to boot up. Any time i try to access something for the first time, it would take almost 10 mins for it to open, be it files, file explorer, web browser, media file or any installed app or program. Once it opened if i tried accessing a second time, it didnt take long. I installed the lenovo solution centre and did a hardware scan to see if there is an issue with the hard disk or RAM or any other hardware. The scan came out clean with all the hardware tests passed.
    I made a recovery disk and then reset the pc to get s fresh installation of the windows. I reset the system from PC settings. After getting a fresh installation when the problem persisted i reset the pc using the recovery disk. The recovery process took 30 hours to finish but that didnt solve the problem. When i tried to reset again it said that there is a partition error and partition could not be found. So i cleaned the hard drive using diskpart, made a primary partition and the. N formatted the HDD. When i tried to install windows 8 using recovery usb it says that it cant find active partition. So then i installed a copy of windows 7 which was very slow and took almost 3 hours to install. After installing windows 7 my laptop is still running very slow and it takes at least 5 minutes for me to access any file or to even right click and refresh the desktop.
    How do i resolve this issue and how can i get a clean installation of the pre loaded windows 8 which i am not able to install from the recovery disk. In the beginning there was one drive of 1TB on which i created more partition to get 1 drive of 450 GB and another 200 GB using the default windows disk manager. Could this have led to the issue of the Laptop slowing down?

  • New macbook pro 15" retina - new fresh installation

    Hi,
    I bought the new mac just after it was released... When needed, how do I make a fresh installation of Mac OS X 10.8??? (without to pay another $???)

    I've had the same problem - people suspect the graphics switching from one card to another causes the issue, but using gfxCardStatus did not prevent the random logouts. Other people speculated it was the scaled resolutions, and that using "Best for Retina" fixed it. I tried using that resolution as well as the 1920x1200 I wanted, but both got the crashes.
    The only solution that has worked for me so far is to work at the native resolution (2880x1800) and blow up windows to a more comfortable zoom level. I've been using SetRes to do so - you can find it if you search for SetResX download and follow the osxdaily link.
    I am using 10.7.4, but I believe the errors persist across all Lions. I would take it in for service, but I don't have time for the turnaround right now, so I'm stuck with it!
