MINIMUM.
no additional packages for rhel installation except those are required by oracle database or for common linux admin tasks.The oracle installation guide does list the minimum requirements to support the oracle product being installed.
As for minimum requirements for the OS itself, that is beyond the scope/concern of Oracle documents. Doesn't the installation process prompt you for which components you want to install? If you don't know what you are doing, I'd be very leery of trying to create a 'minimal' installation of the OS.

    We are going for the 64 Bit, and the installation has been started.
    From the very beginning there has been a lot of conflicts with the drivers and patches, initally there was a NIC bonding issue, once that is resolved. now the server gets rebooted each time. Specially when two people try to login at the same time..

  • Procedure for creating logical standyby database for oracle 11g?

    Hi all,
    can anybody provide me docs /procedure for creating logical standby databse for oracle 11g standard edition.
    Aravind

    Aravind,
    1. The Oracle Standard Edition does not have standby mechanism, you should do it manually or go for Enterprise Edition.
    2. It's rather a question for General Database Discussions instead of Peoplesoft.
    Any further question regarding that point, please post out there.

  • Which Oracle 11g R2 Database Editions support Fusion Middleware?

    I would like to create a database instance(s) and install a development environment (which will include Oracle Forms 11g and Reports 11g as well as APEX and JDeveloper), on my laptop. The laptop has an I5-2520 processor. The set-up is for learning purposes and I do not mind purchasing a license, if it is necessary. My laptop can be installed with an appropriate OS, if one is suggested. Currently, it has Windows 7 Professional 64.
    My questions are:
    1) Can a development environment be set-up on my laptop?
    2) Which Oracle 11g R2 Database Editions (SE1, SE, EE, PE, XE) support Fusion Middleware for the development tools listed above?
    3) Does anyone know of a document detailing the steps from installation of the DB to the installation of the development tools as well as any configuration steps?
    Just need a point in the right direction. Any input would be welcome.
    Thanks!

  • Optimal NTFS block size for Oracle 11G on Windows 2008 R2 (OLTP)

    Hi All,
    We are currently setting up an Oracle 11G instance on a Windows 2008 R2 server and were looking to see if there was an optimal NTFS block size. I've read the following: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/win.112/e10845/specs.htm
    But it only mentioned the block sizes that can be used (2k - 16k). And basically what i got out of it, was the different block szes affect the max # of database files possible for each database.
    Is there an optimal NTFS block size for Oracle 11G OLTP system on Windows?
    Thanks in advance

    Is there an optimal NTFS block size for Oracle 11G OLTP system on Windows?ideally FS block size should be equal to Oracle tablespace block size.
    or at least be N times less than Oracle block size.
    For example - if Oracle BS=8K then NTFS BS better to be 8K but also can be 4K or 2K.
    Also both must be 1 to N times of Disk sector size. Older disks had sectors 512 bytes.
    Contemporary HDDs have internal sector size 4K. Usually.

  • Searching for a Reporting Tool for Oracle 11g

    Hello,
    I have created several OLAP-Cubes with the Analytic Workspace 11.1.0.7.0B on the Oracle Database 11g. Now I need a Tool for Creating some Reporting. I have Oracle BI Spreadsheet Add-In Version 10.1.2.3 for Microsoft Excel. I have installed it and I have a Connection to the Database. But on the Query-Assistent, I can't see my Measures and Dimensions. I guess it is because of the Version.
    My Questions are:
    - Is there any BI Spreadsheet in Version 11?
    - Is there any other Reporting-Possibility with another Tool for Oracle 11g? I couldn't find anything yet.
    I am very happy, if there is anyone who can answer my questions.

    I have no knowledge of BI publisher but if you install OBIEE then you will have option to install BI publisher also. You can download OBIEE from here.
    After installation you can look at following post to see the set up required to access olap cubes.

    Hi Raghavendra, welcome to the forum!
    I suggest you remove you email from your post to avoid recieveing undesired emails.
    There are two OCA paths, OCA Developer or OCA DBA.
    For both paths you need to take one of the following SQL exams:
    1z0-007 Introduction to Oracle9i SQL (this is an outdated exam)
    or
    1z0-047 Oracle Database SQL Expert (more advanced exam recommended for developers/dbas with SQL experience)
    or
    1z0-051 Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I (recommended for beginners or people with average experience in SQL)
    After passing one of these exams, if you want to take the OCA DBA path you need to do the:
    1z0-052 Administration I exam
    After passing one of the SQL exams, if you want to take the OCA Developer path you need one of the:
    1z0-147 Program with PL/SQL (outdated exam)
    or
    1z0-144 Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL (more actual exam, recommended)

  • Slow connection to oracle 11g R2 database if no Internet connection

    Hi all,
    I've read some similar topics, but could not find a solution for my problem. I'm running Windows 7 Enterprise with a VMWare (Player) with a virtual Linux image on my machine (centos 5.4) in NAT connection mode. On the virtual machine I have installed an Oracle 11g R2 database. As long as I'm connected to Wi-FI or I'm plugged into my LAN network, I can access the database and run applications without a problem. But if I don't have an Internet connection, it's almost impossible to connect to the database or use certain applications.
    Thanks in advance for your help !

    Thanks.

    "connection refused" is quite a clear error message;
    - either you configure a wrong host name or port number
    - the database isn't even running
    - a firewall is blocking you
    In any case no connection can be made to the database, which is hardly a programming or driver problem. You'll have to figure out for whatever external reason you cannot create a connection to the database. Good luck.
