Is there a pre-built VM with just Oracle Linux?

I want to try out installing Oracle Database 11gR2 on a Virtualbox without going through installing Oracle Linux in a Windows Host so I'm looking for a pre-built VM with just Oracle Linux. Most of the VMs available in Pre-Built Developer VMs (for Oracle VM VirtualBox) http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html already have Oracle Database installed. It seems that my only choice is to use Enterprise Java Development VM. I notice there is something called Oracle VM template but it does not seem to be for Virtualbox. Thanks for any help.

I would second Bjorn's suggestion to just go ahead and install Oracle Linux from scratch. As a DBA you need to be familiar with a lot of OS level admin stuff, so installing the OS from scratch and doing the minimal configuration needed to install Oracle is, in itself, an important part of your professional development. If you take a shortcut of using a pre-built vm you are just stunting your own growth.

  • Installing Pre-built Virtual Machine for Oracle WebCenter Portal error

    Hi,
    I am trying to install the Pre-built Virtual Machine for Oracle WebCenter Portal: Framework 11gR1 (11.1.1.4.0) onto a Laptop (500G HDD 8G Ram) running Windows 7 to learn.
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/webcenter/portal/downloads/owcs-portalfw-vbox-284132.html
    I want to run in a VirtualBox Linux setup etc.
    I have downloaded all the files except the REAVDD-HOL-WC.ovf which would not download so I saved in browser to the same directory etc.
    I have set the preferences in Virtual Box to the same directory where I have downloaded the files to but when I Import Applicance and select C:\users\Tony\Virtual Box VMs and select the defaults and import I get an error box stating:
    Failed to import appliance C:\Users\Tony\VirtualBox VMs\REAVDD-HOL-WC.ovf.

    I've imported this appliance (and others) on Windows 7 32-bit on a Lenovo W500, on an iMac, and on a MacBook. The one error you should encounter during the "import appliance" step is a path error related to shared folder (the canned/hard-coded path in the ovf file points to a place that is not likely to exist on your computer, so just comment out the D:\TEMP\Host path, or make it for that matter).
    <!--SharedFolders-->
    <!--SharedFolder name="Host" hostPath="D:\TEMP\Host" writable="false" autoMount="true"/ -->
    <!-- /SharedFolders-->
    You can alter system set memory_target=300M scope=both and set your VM memory to 2.5GB and everything will run fine (using the vmctl script to start up what's needed). The "1" option is all that is needed for the tutorial shown in the documentation. If you run the admin server, you will see things run a good bit slower. Part of the tutorial assumes you know about UCM and how to take the UCM content in the sample files and upload those into the repository. You can delete the file already loaded and then do a single file upload to "re-load" the various directories/folders for the menu/home/etc. Upload the png and other files into the same folder (menu.html, menuBanner.png, etc. all go into the same Menu folder). It's not worth the time to set the bulk upload because you have to go out into UCM and dig around the admin settings, stop/restart, and so on. You can also use the contentadmin user (welcome1) to do the file upload.

  • Pre-built Business Areas for Oracle Apps?

    Hello all,
    I'd like to know if there are any 'boiler-plate' Business Areas that come with
    Oracle Apps 11i?
    I'm building a Discoverer reporting environment over Oracle Apps 11i.
    Apps 11i, if you don't know, is enormous! I'd like some 'off-the-shelf'
    material to start with.
    Thanks.

    Yes you need to review Doc ID: 139516.1 Discoverer 4i with Oracle Applications 11i from metalink to set them up.

    You do need to have
    Oracle Certified Associate, Oracle Linux 5 and 6 System Administrator or
    Oracle Linux Administrator Certified Associate (retired)
    as well of course!
    but if necessary you can pass 1z0-100 after 1z1-105 and you will still be awarded OL6 OCP!

  • Pre-Built EBS Analytics with BAM and EBS adapters on FM

    Are there any pre-built business analytics dashboards/ reports installable in BAM SOA 11g for Oracle EBS 11.5.10?
    If so, where do I download and what other components are required to publish these?
    Thanks
    Edited by: user6739500 on May 21, 2010 3:08 PM

    Hi there
    I have a Technote that shows how the information can be published from EBS to BAM. In addition you could create an end to end visibility across the products e.g. B2B - BPEL - EBS - Financials etc by raising the events to BAM .
    There is no out of the box dashboards available today. However, i have a number of customers who are doing this use case by themselves or through some SI/Oracle consulting.
    can we contact you offline to discuss your requirement?

  • Oracle PeopleSoft CRM pre-built VM Template

    Hey!
    Am looking for a pre-built VM Template of Oracle PeopleSoft CRM.. In the instructions it says:
    Visit http://edelivery.oracle.com/oraclevm
    Complete your registration information (Name, Company Name, Email Address and Country) and click on the download agreement
    Select "Oracle VM Templates" from the "Select a Product Pack" pull-down menu
    Select "x86 64 bit" from the "Platform" pull-down menu
    Click "Go" and then select from the list of Oracle VM Templates
    Download and unzip the files and read the readme
    But I can't find PeopleSoft listed in after hitting the "Go" button!
    Is there any other way to download it?
    Thank you in advance.

    It seems Oracle needs to revisit their pages more often, the link you pointed is really out of date. The PSoft OVM CRM91 PTools 8.50 you read from the page you linked is dated from August-2010 when I see my software repository...
    The Peoplesoft OVM Templates have been globally decomissioned three years ago I think, you have no luck to find out one of them unless you have already downloaded them.
    Nowadays, Peoplesoft is working with the so-called Peoplesoft Images, virtual machine for VirtualBox. Unfortunately, only available for those who have a valid Customer Support Identifier (paid support) and access to My Oracle Support.
    The Peoplesoft images are rebuilt on regular basis, perhaps every quarter - depending of the application, with the highest maintenance level (application and tools).

  • Config Pre-Built Oracle Virtual Environment for Minimalist

    I know you probably’ve got asked this question before - and i understand the 1GIG minimal requirement- , but is it possible to install the whole Pre-Built Oracle Virtual Environment, but then disable relevant components to clustering in order to utilize as a basic oracle environment.
    Alternatively is there a Pre-Built Oracle Virtual Environment for 9i.

    None of those roles are intended to be granted to application users. Those are instead to limit various operational / support responsibilities. For instance, if you have "operators" for your production environment who are responsible for starting & stopping servers vs "Administrators" who are performing configuration changes, etc.
    The SOA* versions can be used to separate even further - an "Operator" ( with rights in the WL console ) can be distinct from a "SOAOperator" ( with rights in the SOA /em ), etc.

    There are many ways and applications that you can use to build a web site. Which will be best for you will depend on the site you want to build and your level of expertise. Many experienced web developers just use a text editor, often one with specialized features for web programming (BBEdit, for example), but there are programs that can offer additional help, up to and including "drag and drop". Without knowing more about your needs, it's difficult to offer specific advice, but here are some possibilities:
    iWeb - came with your Mac. Easy to build but rather limiting in what you can do.
    RapidWeaver - more flexible and capable than iWeb but harder to use; sort of an "inbetweener" application
    Dreamweaver - powerful but expensive and a steep learning curve
    There are of course a number of other options. If you can provide more detail about what you wish to build and your level of experience, someone can probably make more targeted recommendations.
    Regards.

  • I just purchased an iPod Nano (Red) and want to connect to my truck's speakers.  There is no built-in direct port.  What is the best product to buy to make that connection?

    I just purchased an iPod Nano (Red) and want to connect to my truck's speakers.  There is no built-in port to connect.  What is the best product to purchase in order to make a connection?  Thx, Robert

    Your truck's audio system may not have a specialized docking port for iPods, or a USB port, but does it have a standard "auxiliary" audio input port?  It would look like headphones jack on the iPod.  If so, you can use a cable like this
    http://www.amazon.com/Monster-iCable-Player-Auxiliary-Input/dp/B002AR5XIK
    to connect your iPod's output to the car's audio. 
    Otherwise, if your audio system is old enough to have a casette tape player, you can get a device that looks casette tape with a cable coming out of it, and play your iPod through the casette tape player.  The other way is to get a device for the iPod that sends the audio, through a low-power radio transmitter, to your car's radio (at a frequency that is normally not used by local radio).  From my experience, neither of those methods work well, in terms of maintaining full audio quality.

  • Does OBIEE come with pre-built ETL for EnterpriseOne?

    Hi All,
    I'm currently trying to integrate OBIEE with EnterpriseOne and was wondering if there are any pre-built ETL for EnterpriseOne. Does OBIEE come ship with any pre-built EnterpriseOne dashboards, if so where can I find these. Thanks for the guidance.

    Hi,
    OBIEE doesn't comes with pre-built ETLs. Its BI Applications which have pre-built ETLs to build OBAW. But one need to install these BI Applications on top of OBIEE.
    Hope this clarified your doubt.
    Thanks,

  • I just recently purchased 3 songs from itunes not knowing that I had no money on my debit card (visa) left. My iphone wont let me update my apps and says that there was a billing problem with my last purchase. I dont know what I am supposed to do!

    I just recently purchased 3 songs from itunes not knowing that I had no money on my debit card (visa) left. My iphone wont let me update my apps and says that there was a billing problem with my last purchase. I dont know what I am supposed to do! I dont understand why it worked in the first place when it wasn't supposed to!

    There seems to be a billing problem with the iTS.  I've been trying to make purchases today (Dec 9th) too and it reports either the iTS can not process payments or it says my card was declined. I even changed the payment method to Paypal (which is never declined) and still no go.
    I don't think it is "you" but a problem at Apple.  Some popular new apps were released recently like Logic Pro and perhaps they're getting bombarded as they did when Lion was released.
    Wait a few hours and then try again.
