Productive Oracle On Linux

We are in the process to select a database server for our research data (40 GB) we have two options Linux or Solaris. I would like to know how many people are around using Linux in an productive environment of this size or larger? Are you happy?
Also I read that disc performance might be a problem. Does anybody have expierience with RAIDs (eg. those available from DELL)?
Thanks,
Alberto

It's true that most questions are answered by other users. There
are two reasons why I think that's a good thing.
1. It's just how Linux has always worked. We police our own
ranks, fix our own stuff, and solve our own disputes.
2. I believe that #1 was a driving factor for companies like
Oracle to port to Linux. The worldwide support network
available to the Linux community is something even micro$oft
can't match. From Oracle's point of view, it's a win/win.
A user community that fixes it's own stuff and never calls me
up? That's every vendor and sys-admin's dream.....
However if there are product related bugs/issues, that clearly
have no connection to configuration/misuse, (like missing libs,
ala patch[1-3].tgz) it IS the duty of Oracle Development
Personnel to step in.
Thanx for hearing me out,

Unable to auto start database/listener/EM on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5

All Experts
I have install oracle 11g on Oracle Enterprize Linux 5 successfully.
done all post installating steps, but when i restart server oracle listener/database/EM not automatically start.
Please guide what is wron (server dbora error: /bin/sh: :No such file or directory).
1. Log in as the root user
2. Edit the oratab file (SID=Y)
3. Create a file called dbora
4.Run chmod and chgrp on the dbor file
# chgrp dba dbora
# chmod 750 dbora
6.Creat symbolic links to the dbora script
# ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc0.d/K01dbora
# ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc3.d/S99dbora
# ln -s /etc/init.d/dbora /etc/rc.d/rc5.d/S99dbora
7. add service
# chkconfig --add dbora
# chkconfig –list dbora
0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
# ls -l /etc/rc*.d/*dbora
# !/bin/sh -X
# chkconfig: 35 99 10
# description: Start and stop the Oracle database, listener, EM, and iSQLPlus
# Change the value of ORACLE_HOMe to specify the correct Oracle Home Firectory for your installation.
# Change the value of ORACLE to the login name of the oracle owner at your site
ORACLE_HOME=/oradisk/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db
ORACLE=oracle
PATH=${PATH}:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
HOST="hostname"
PLATFORM="uname"
export ORACLE_HOME PATH
if [ ! -f $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart ]
then
echo "Oracle startup: cannot start"
exit
fi
case $1 in
'start')
su - $ORACLE -c "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart $ORACLE_HOME"
'stop')
su - $ORACLE -c "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut $ORACLE_HOME"
echo "usage: $0 {start|stop}"
exit
esac
exit

does the script work when you log on to your freshly started system, logon as root and execute /etc/init.d/dbora start?
the script does not have to have group membership of the dba group.
also, do not create symlinks yourself.
by adding the service using chkconfig the script is started and stopped as indicated by chkconfig --list, no need to do additional steps like creating symlinks.

I'm facing the same error message while install Siebel 8.0 on OEL. But before I had this ksh problem, it complains about disc space first, and I actually has plenty of disk space under the directory (it needs only 0.7 G and I have 17G free). Anybody has encountered such problem before?

Guide to installing XE and Apex on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 (64 bit)

I have just been through a time consuming and frustrating process of installing Oracle XE 10gR2 on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 x86-64 and I want to share my experience so that others can benefit from it and overcome the same problems more quickly.
Prior to starting I had installed OEL 5.3 and been using it for a few days. The system I am using is a home built box with an AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition, 8 Gb RAM, Highpoint RR2680 RAID controller with 4 1TB disks in a RAID5 array and an additional 320Gb HDD storing the OS. I am using KDE3.5 on the desktop.
The main problem I encountered was with SELinux. As I eventually intend to have this system exposed on the Internet I was reluctant to switch it off despite having read extensively about the issues surrounding it and Oracle. I had several failed attempts at the installation process before succumbing to the reality that SELinux and Oracle are not happy bedfellows. I decided to switch SELinux to permissive mode having followed the advice here.
I found a very helpful guide to installing XE on Linux here as part of the installation of an application called Spacewalk. Note that you do not need to complete the whole Spacewalk installation, but just follow the instructions in the linked page.
Before you start you need to ensure that the UID of your oracle user is less than 500. Mine was 500, so I used the following commands to fix this:
usermod -u 250 oracle
find / -uid 500 -exec chown oracle {} \;
These change the oracle UID to 250 (but check that isn't already used first!) and the find command searches for all files that were owned by oracle (but weren't after the usermod cmd) and changes them back to oracle's ownership.
Now follow the Spacewalk instructions until you reach the Server Setup section. Before you do this you need to make a couple of changes to the script /etc/init.d/oracle-xe. I found these changes in various places, such as [link(1)|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=1345771&#1345771] and [link(2)|http://dbataj.blogspot.com/2008/08/lblibrarypath-is-not-set-on-startup.html].
Note that in link(1) the oracle-xe-selinux packages installed have the same effect as the chcon command on the shared libraries so it isn't necessary to perform this step.
Open /etc/init.d/oracle-xe in vi (or your favourite editor) and do the following:
line 49: change /bin/su to /sbin/runuser
after line 52 (export PATH...) add the following lines:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
There are further changes recommended to /etc/init.d/oracle-xe in [this post|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=3201491&#3201491] but I haven't done them yet.
Having done the above changes you can now configure Oracle XE by running /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure (as root!). As I have Apache Tomcat running on port 8080 I changed the default HTTP port to 8500 but kept the listener on its default port of 1521. Once the confuration script is done you will need to change the ports SELinux uses for Oracle as follows:
semanage port -d -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 9000 - deletes port 9000, which is the SELinux default port for Apex
semanage port -a -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 1521 - ensure that listener port is OK (assuming you used default of 1521, change accordingly if you didn't)
semanage port -a -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 8500 - add the new Apex HTTP port to SELinux
After all this running:
semanage port -l | grep oracle
should show you:
oracle_port_t tcp 1521, 8500
I ignored the TNSNAMES.ORA part of the Spacewalk instructions and proceeded with the 'Client setup on 64bit platform' and 'Configuring sqlplus' sections.
For the latter I created a bash script which I have made available in the oracle user and my own user's home directories:
cat > configure_oracle_10g_xe.sh
ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
ORACLE_SID=XE
export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
I did this as I intend to install other Oracle databases, e.g. 11gR2, on this box later so I didn't want to put the above in .bashrc.
Having done the above you should be able to log into the database using sqlplus and the XE setup is complete.
The upgrade of Apex 2.2 to Apex 3.2.1 was fairly painless so I won't go into much detail about it - just follow the instructions provided by Oracle.
The only issue I had was right at the end of the process and is documented and answered in [this thread|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=958611&tstart=0].
That's it - I hope somebody will find this useful.

On Oracle Metalink site, there are many documents which says that Oracle 32 bit software works on 32 bits OS and 64 bits software works on 64 bits OS. Official support is only in those combination....
So there is no good way to help you in your case-XE is 32 bit application with hard codded compiled libraries which most of them would not work on 64 bit OS.
Sorry

ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER is not SET dbstart error Oracle Enterprise Linux

ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER is not SET dbstart error Oracle Enterprise Linux
Hallo!I am a newbie in Oracle 10g having installed Oracle 10g in Oracle Enterprise Linux version 4 update 7.
I am trying to automate the startup of the Listener,Database,Enterprise Manager and isqlplus during boot.
I have tried running the dbstart script but an error resulted.After research,I found out that I am supposed to edit line 78 of the dbstart script from
ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=/ade/vikrkuma_new/oracle
To
ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=$ORACLE_HOME
Even after this,when I run the dbstart script,I receive the error below.
[root@joey-oel ~]# cd /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db/bin/

Hi terry;
How can I check the version of Oracle in Linux ?You mean your db version or something else? If you mean you want to control your version issue is:
source env file as oramgr
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
when u login sqlplus it will give u something as below:

Oracle on Linux recommendations

Hello,
I'm looking to migrate our Oracle installation from Windows to Linux. I am an experienced Linux administrator and architect, and I am also very familiar with SAN storage, but have not looked at the details of implementing Oracle on Linux before. I have certain constraints dictated by our client requirements and available hardware. Namely, the hardware platform will be 2 HP DL580's connected via dual fibre to HDS (Hitachi) 9900V storage. There will be multiple luns presented for different containers. As a result of the multiple storage paths we require good multipath IO support. For this reason my first choice is Redhat Enterprise AS 5. However, on the database side we are limited due to client application compatibility to Oracle 10g R1/R2. We are looking to deploy RAC. We are also looking at 64bit for larger file and memory support. Is this realistic?
What sort of configuration should I be looking at?
Should I be looking at Oracle Enterprise Linux 5?
Am I going to have problems if we want to use RHEL5?
Is Oragle 10g well supported on RHEL5/OEL5 or will I have to drop to RHEL4/OEL4 (which may cause problems for my SAN mpio support.)
Will we require OCFS2 for any reason?
What advantage is there to me in running unbreakable linux? I've read the marketing blurbs but it is not clear to me what the advantages are.
Any feedback is welcome.
Thanks,
Sheldon.

Hi,
I think it is Okay to you mentioned configuration to deploy the RAC based on 10g &RHEL5/OEL5.As a matter of fact,Oracle 10gR2 64-bit has been certified on RHEL5-64bit&OEL5-64bit.
Actually,OCFS2 and ASM are supported by Oracle RAC.The recommended way to manage large amounts of storage in a RAC environment is ASM (Automatic Storage Management).If you want to use the cluster file system,OCFS2 as an open source project is provided.
OEL5 is fully compatible with RHEL5.Unbreakable Linux is support service.If you choose the OEL5,you can benefit from it as below:
1,Oracle Enterprise Linux is Free to Download.For Enterprise customers had to pay for a support contract to actually get an enterprise Linux distribution, even if they just wanted to evaluate it. With Oracle Unbreakable Linux, customers can always download the binaries and the source code for free, no support subscription required.Free download at: http://edelivery.oracle.com/linux
2,Oracle applied a number of bugfixes on top of the original code. These are very limited in scope, and they are critical for customers to have as soon as possible in their production deployment. For a complete listing, read the following data sheets:http://www.oracle.com/technologies/linux/el5cert-ds.pdf
3,Extensive Testing:
Tremendous effort has gone into assuring that there is no divergence from the original Red Hat source code, given that the main goal of Oracle Enterprise Linux and the Oracle.
4,Patches and Bugfixes
Another aspect of compatibility with Red Hat Enterprise Linux is around patches and bugfixes written by Oracle and not appearing in the Red Hat distribution.
5,Pay less money and get more professional support service:)
See more details please refer to http://linux.oracle.com

Oracle 11g on Oracle Unbreakable Linux

OK,
I have installed 11g on a new installation of Oracle Enterprise Linux 5. Everything seemed to go OK except the swap space was set to 2Gb and 11g wanted 3.4Gb. The documentation I found on ONT said that was fine and normal as the default install gives only 2Gb. I created a startup DB of JSI. I can connect to is using sqlplus user@JSI. However, when I try to connect using ..... $ sqlplus user/password@host:1521/JSI I get this error....
ORA-12504: TNS:listener was not given the SERVICE_NAME in CONNECT_DATA
I am also having other issue but want to look at the one at a time to see if on fixes the other.

Thanks for the help and suggestions. Here is what I get when I give the lsnrctl serv...

Oracle 11g grid control software for Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.0 version

Hi,
Just curious to know when Oracle 11g grid control software for Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.0 version will be released. If already released, can you post the link?
Regards,
Manohar

What is the best installlation document to follow for the latest EM Grid control ?The latest Grid Control is available for download at http://download.oracle.com (Scroll down to "Enterprise Management"). There is a README beside the download link. THAT README PROVIDES INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS.
In a nutshell, you install the lowest version (10.2.0.1 or 10.2.0.2, which ever is lower for your Grid Control platform), and then apply the 10.2.0.5 patch according to the readme. That should not normally take more than a day.

Also, can GRID discover PeopleSoft and Siebel application software ?
That can be found using the self-help portal: http://otn.oracle.com -> Products : Enterprise Management (left edge menu). In the 'Product Focus' area, you will notice 'Application Management' which will lead you to the appropriate data sheets and supporting information.

Is RDAC supported in Oracle Unbreakable Linux kernel 2.6.32-100.0.19.el5?

Dear,
Is RDAC supported in Oracle Unbreakable Linux Kernel 2.6.32-100.0.19.el5?
If supported, please point to the download link.
We require this in order to plan for the OEL 5.5 kernel upgrade to ULK and to connect SUN SAN storage array 6180.
Thanks,
...basha

From what I can gather you will need to compile the driver from source in order to use the RDAC driver with the UEK kernel. Chances are that it won't compile properly under the UEK kernel, which is more up to date than the RHEL kernel.
You will have to start the system from the supplied original RHEL kernel in order to use the binary IBM RDAC driver distribution. The following is available: http://www.lsi.com/sep/Pages/rdac/ds4000.aspx and http://www.lsi.com/sep/Pages/rdac/ds3000.aspx
You may however be able to use Multipath, which is build in also in the UEK kernel. To get the current supported configurations for IBM System Storage it is best to use the interoperability matrices located at http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/storage/product/interop.html. You can use the link to the "System Storage Interoperation Center (SSIC)" to query your specific configuration (http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/support/storage/ssic/interoperability.wss)
