Q: Oracle Linux 5 Hardisk Size Required?

What is the hard disk size required to install Oracle Linux 5 in Dell Intel Server? Any information provided will be very much appreciated.

The answer will depend on your installed RAM. It could be the the size of your installed RAM plus 5 GB for the OS.
Since Oracle Linux is actually a clone of Red Hat, you can check the Red Hat documentation online. The following link should answer your questions:
http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Installation_Guide/s2-diskpartrecommend-x86.html
or check the installation guide at: https://linux.oracle.com/documentation/
For other limits and min. requirements:
http://www.redhat.com/rhel/compare/
A lot of info is also at http://linux.oracle.com
Since you are using DELL you might want to check for hardware compatibility at http://content.dell.com/us/en/enterprise/d/operating-systems/redhatalliance.aspx and verify your current firmware and install required drivers for RHEL/Oracle Linux if necessary.

Fusion middleware system requirements for oracle Linux 7

Hello,
I'm currently studying document E54272-01 (Oracle® Fusion Middleware System Requirements and Specifications
12c (12.1.3) September 2014) in order to install Fusion Middleware 12c products on a Oracle Linux 7 server.
The "Linux Operating System Requirements" section doesn't include Oracle Linux 7 system requirements, does it mean Fusion Middleware 12c products are not yet certified for OL7?
PS : I'm unable to find a pdf version of E54272-01 document, if anybody has the URL, I'll appreciate.
Daniel

Daniel,
The compatibility matrix for 12.1.3 can be found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/fusion-middleware/documentation/fmw-1213certmatrix-2226694.xls
As you will see, for now only Oracle Linux 5 and 6 are compatible.
Thanks,

Spacewalk quickstart for Oracle linux 6.1

I have spacewalk installed following the instructions at https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/HowToInstall. I am completely stuck regarding what to do next.
My question is, how do I register my new spacewalk server with oracle linux network in order to subscribe to channels and start downloading updates?
I am under the impression there is a command similar to rhn_register to get this spacewalk server registered with OLN. I am at a dead end here any insight would be appreciated.

user12289873 wrote:
I have a basic question, is Oracle Management Pack for Linux a stand alone application or like the name indicates a pack to another larger application ?The Linux Management Pack is part of Oracle Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control. It requires a full install of Grid Control, which includes Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition, Oracle WebLogic Server and Enterprise Manager Grid Control itself. However, once you have this installed, it is better suited to managing and maintaining large groups of Oracle Linux servers than Spacewalk. Spacewalk has no internal capabilities to manage Oracle Linux boxes and requires continual tweaking in order to keep it working, in the same way you can't actually manage large groups of Red Hat Enterprise Linux servers with it (requires the actual Satellite Server product) without lots of tweaking.
For example, in order for Spacewalk to work, you have to keep using the rep_populate.sh script you're currently using to create local yum mirrors to import into Spacewalk. The Spacewalk server itself won't talk to ULN without code hacking, as far as I could tell. While Spacewalk can be made to work, it's not straightforward and there is no documentation online on how to get it to work with Oracle Linux. It's a lot of trial and error with manipulating the CentOS instructions.
BTW, we include all the licenses you need for the entire stack with your Oracle Linux basic or premier subscription, so you can install the entire stack! Furthermore, you can then start to explore managing the rest of your Oracle products from a central location. Enterprise Manager 11g Grid Control can handle management from the operating system (or virtualization layer if you start looking at Oracle VM) all the way up the stack through the database to application servers and beyond.

Hardware requirements to install Oracle Linux 5.8

Hi,
I wish to inatall Oracle Linux as the parent OS in my Laptop. Could you please share the minimum hardware configuration required for smooth functioning.
Thanks,
Haider

You will need to keep in mind that Oracle Linux is better suited to enterprise server types of hardware and not for generic laptop/desktop usage. Much of your hardware may just not work. For example, enterprise servers don't have wireless networking, fancy graphics, USB3.0, Bluetooth, touchscreens, and more.
After reading the link that was provided by Srini, I suggest you download and install a copy of VirtualBox and install it. Then you can experiment with your OL5.8 and most any other OS you dream of without mucking up your current functional OS.

Oracle also has a couple of other linux exams ... but the 1z0-403 is rhel 4 based and is becoming out of touch through obselesence. 1z0-402 is relevant but probably not vastly recognised.
IMHO from the exam topics this exam appears to be targetted at ensuring Oracle Partners Staff have demonstrated some understanding of how to assist in setting up OEL and can apply the support Procedures Oracle have in place for business customers. ( Oracle Partners are awarded points for staff having such exam credits; and that can be important in maintaining their partnership level status ... silver, diamond ...... etc).
Some will find other linux certification offerings more relevant for them ... LPIC/COMPCIA/ubuntu/RHEL ....
Any thank you for hinting this exam existed to me .... i had not heard about it and beta's do not stay at the cheap beta price for long. If I have the time (and I dont really) I'd have a shot at it myself in beta.

How to compile Oracle Linux source?

I accidentally downloaded source DVD "Oracle Linux Release 5 Update 2 source - DVD" instead of installable ISO image. Is there anyway I can compile it to make bootable ISO image?
I tried to search this forum as well as other places but couldn't find any information hence thought of opening a thread before I proceed to download correct file which will again take 10+ hrs with my Internet speed :(
Any help is highly appreciated. Also I need to know which packages are required to be installed for compiling the source if at all that is possible. I am using Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop.
Thanks in advance for any help and hope to get a reply soon :) I need to urgently install Oracle 11gR2 on it.
Edited by: user6582219 on Apr 12, 2012 1:10 AM
While browsing the forum for any possible solution I came to a thread that discuss installation of a package oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall. When searched through search engine I came to know about recent certification Oracle 11gR2 on Oracle Linux 6, here is the link https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/entry/announcing_oracle_database_11g_r2
https://blogs.oracle.com/linux/entry/announcing_oracle_database_11g_r2
Thing is I already have Oracle Linux 6 Update 2 (the latest) installed on my machine in dual boot mode so I dropped the idea of installing version 5.2. As per the documentation 11gR2 was not certified earlier on Linux 6.2 so I thought of installing 5.2 but it is not necessary now.
I would still appreciate if someone could answer my question just for knowing the procedure compiling source. May be it can help someone else trying to achieve this.
I have another couple of important questions and need guidance from the experts over here. I am not sure if it is appropriate to open a new thread but for now I am posting them here.
Before proceeding here are my environment details:
Machine: x86 32 bit with 2 GB RAM/250 GB HD.
OS: Kubuntu 11.10 Desktop and Oracle Linux 6 Update 2 in dual boot mode.
Here are my partition details for your reference but as I am planning to do the installation from the scratch following new ideal scheme you can jump to last paragraph following the line "*********************************" for my questions.
Unfortunately my partition plan went wrong and here is what I have now:
Disk /dev/sda: 250.1 GB, 250059350016 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/track, 30401 cylinders, total 488397168 sectors
Units = sectors of 1 * 512 = 512 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x3d5ba9e1
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sda1 * 2048 1002047 500000 83 Linux
/dev/sda2 151525080 361253654 104864287+ 7 HPFS/NTFS/exFAT
/dev/sda4 1003518 151001087 74998785 5 Extended
/dev/sda5 1003520 7002111 2999296 82 Linux swap / Solaris

/dev/sda8 51003392 110041087 29518848 83 Linux
Partition table entries are not in disk order
/dev/sda1 here is /tmp, /dev/sda2 is my data partition, I have separate /home / (root) partition for Kubuntu and remianing around 20 GB in extended partition is used for Oracle Linux 6.2 with default Oracle suggested LVM partition. I also have separate /boot for Kubuntu and I chose not to install grub while installing Oracle Linux. I later modified grub.cfg to add entries for Oracle Linux and now I can boot both OSs successfully.
My issue now is I cannot extend 20 GB space (in extended partition) that I have given to Oracle though I have around 40 GB space available. This is because I alreay have 4 primary partitions (one for /boot others for "data" and one extended partition). So I have to make primary partition out of free space and install Oracle in a single partition without following recommended partition layout scheme.
Now I want to do the installation of both the OS from the scratch and really need an advice on partition layout scheme. Here is summary of what I wan to achieve:
1. Keep the "data" partition (primary) intact and carve an ideal partition layout for both the OS with separate /boot, /tmp, /home, swap (and may be for /usr???). Also may be I can share swap?
2. How do I go about using LVM and is it recommended for this case? What would be ideal locations for each partitions and sizes? I already used 100 GB for "data" so now I want to keep 60 GB for Oracle Linux (and Oracle DB for which I will again make few sub-partitions) and remaining will be for Kubuntu.
Well, I am not sure if this is the right place to ask these questions but since I can see very knowlegeable top contributors here that are willing to help novice users I thought of posting these questions.
I would really really appreciate if someone can provide me rough draft of partition scheme in my case considering the sub-partitions needed for Oracle DB. I went thorugh number of forums and documentations to come up with solutuion and finally thought of getting help after much confusion.
I really need to carefully plan this time because it's third time I am doing reinstallation from the scratch because of poor plan I followed previously.
Thank you very much in advance and please let me know in case more information is needed from my side.
Regards,
Ramesh

I accidentally downloaded source DVD "Oracle Linux Release 5 Update 2 source - DVD" instead of installable ISO image. Is there anyway I can compile it to make bootable ISO image?Google will be your best friend for such a question, for instance, "Creating a Custom centos Linux bootable ISO Image". There is no need to duplicate the effort. I recommend you download the correct installation DVD, e.g. 5.8
Thing is I already have Oracle Linux 6 Update 2 (the latest) installed on my machine in dual boot mode so I dropped the idea of installing version 5.2. As per the documentation 11gR2 was not certified earlier on Linux 6.2 so I thought of installing 5.2 but it is not necessary now.So you don't need to install 5.2 anymore, but you want the information how to compile a installation DVD from the 5.2 source anyway?!
I have another couple of important questions and need guidance from the experts over here. I am not sure if it is appropriate to open a new thread but for now I am posting them here.Questions may be important for you, but not necessarily for others. No one will complain if you create a new thread for particular questions or subjects. It is better to separate your topics and questions rather than creating a multi-mega thread, which does little to help anyone else but you. It means more work on your end, but it will be easier for anyone to participate or answer your questions, and it will allow you to better award answers.
Regarding your partitioning questions: It is generally difficult to address such topics in a forum. You are asking for a book of information. My advice is to drop the old fashioned concepts of dual or triple boot options and install Oracle VirtualBox instead. It will make all of these questions obsolete and you can use whatever defaults when installing your virtual machine guest OS. Its a far more superior way of dealing with multiple operating systems on one and the same computer.
I am using Ubuntu 11.10 Desktop.

The installation guide available at https://linux.oracle.com/documentation/ may require some updating. Last time I checked, chapter 16.16.5. Recommended Partitioning Scheme, did not include the swap space required for hibernation mode.
It is mentioned here:
https://access.redhat.com/site/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/6/html/Installation_Guide/s2-diskpartrecommend-x86.html
Swap space size recommendations issued for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0, 6.1, and 6.2 differed from the current recommendations, which were first issued with the release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.3 in June 2012 and did not account for hibernation space.

Oracle Linux NTFS how-to

h1. Oracle Linux NTFS how-to
Author: Dude
Version: B, 22-Jan-2012
h2. Purpose
This document contains instructions how to install NTFS support under Oracle Enterprise Linux version 4, 5 and Oracle Linux version 5 and 6.
h2. Topics
1) Determine Kernel Architecture and Distribution
2) Setup Software Repositories
3) Install the NTFS Kernel Driver and Software
4) Find and Mount a NTFS Device
5) Notes
h3. 1) Determine Kernel Architecture and Distribution
Open a Terminal command prompt and enter the following to check if your system is x86 or x86_64:
# uname -m
x86_64If you see "i686" or "i386" instead then your system is x86.
# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 9)The above example shows you are running Enterprise Linux version 4.9
h3. 2) Setup Software Repositories
You will need to setup access to two software repositories.
Oracle ULN or public yum:
The installation of RPM software packages can be complex due to software conflicts or package dependencies. It is easier to use a software manager like "yum", which will automatically resolve package dependencies and prompt you to download required software if necessary.
For those who do not have a support subscription and access to Oracle ULN, Oracle provides a public YUM software repository to give you free online access to the standard software distributions. Simply follow the instructions outlined at http://public-yum.oracle.com. You only need to enable the software repository that matches your version according to the previous step.
Reproforge:
The NTFS driver is provided by the Repoforge alias RPMforge software repository. For more information about Repoforge, please see http://repoforge.org/faq. NTFS-3G is a stable, full-featured, read-write NTFS driver for Linux and other operating systems. For more information check http://www.tuxera.com/community/ntfs-3g-download, where you can also download the source code should you prefer to compile your own NTFS driver.
Depending on your current distribution and kernel architecture, you need to install the following:
Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.x x86:
# wget http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el4.rf.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el4.rf.i386.rpm
Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.x x86_64:
# wget http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el4.rf.x86_64.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el4.rf.x86_64.rpm
Oracle Enterprise Linux / Oracle Linux 5.x x86:
# wget http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.i386.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.i386.rpm
Oracle Enterprise Linux / Oracle Linux 5.x x86_64:
# wget http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm
Oracle Linux 6.x x86:
# wget http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.i686.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.i686.rpm
Oracle Linux 6.x x86_64:
# wget http://pkgs.repoforge.org/rpmforge-release/rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpm
# rpm -Uvh rpmforge-release-0.5.2-2.el6.rf.x86_64.rpmh3. 3) Install the NTFS Kernel Driver and Related Software
The software packages required to support NTFS depends on your current Linux distribution:
Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.x:
# yum install dkms dkms-fuse fuse fuse-ntfs-3g
Oracle Enterprise Linux / Oracle Linux 5.0 - 5.2:
# yum install dkms dkms-fuse fuse fuse-ntfs-3g
Oracle Enterprise Linux / Oracle Linux 5.3:
NTFS support under Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 is broken and you should consider to upgrade to the 5.4 or later. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=481495)
Oracle Enterprise Linux / Oracle Linux 5.4 - 5.x:
As of Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.4 the the kernel fuse module (dkms, dkms-fuse) is included in the kernel and should not be installed.
# yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g
Oracle Enterprise Linux / Oracle Linux 6.x:
# yum install fuse fuse-ntfs-3g h3. 4) Find and Mount a NTFS Device
You can use the "blkid" command to identify attached devices. For instance:
sudo blkid
/dev/sda1: LABEL="/boot" UUID="73efxxxxxxxxxxxxx_TYPE="ext3" TYPE="ext2"
/dev/dm-0: UUID="22a2d704-f75dxxxxxxx595df" SEC_TYPE="ext3" TYPE="ext2"
/dev/dm-1: TYPE="swap" UUID="3b74fxxxxxx411c-8671-2244b8735866"
/dev/sdb1: TYPE="ntfs"
{code}
In the above example, device "/dev/sdb1" contains a NTFS partition.
To mount the NTFS volume according to above example under the /mnt directory:
{code}
sudo mount.ntfs /dev/sdb1 /mnt
{code}

I'm afraid there is no general answer. It depends how your device is connected, i.e. internal, usb, etc.?

Libraries missing while installing Oracle 11.2g on Oracle Linux 6.2

Hi,
i just installed oracle linux 6.2 and started to isntall Oracle 11.2g server.
so first i installed the yum install oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall_

ex: when i query rpm -q libaio it shows that i have installed libaio-0.3.107 but in OUI it shows that libaio-0.3.105 is missing.
is this normal or should i go and install also the previous versions of the missing libraries?

as you see all checks passed OK, but the whole install failed. What could be wrong? And what is XML parser init: error 54?

Where's the WebLogic Server home???
Else you should attach this to an existing WebLogic domain

Why is your "requirement" to install in graphical mode? Once you are past the installation itself, the only thing that buys you is that your server will have been configured to boot up to runlevel 5, running a graphical desktop (gnome or kde, I forget which). And what does THAT buy you on a server?
I do not run ANY of my Linux servers "in graphical mode" -- running a graphical desktop. Nor did I run a graphical desktop when I had Solaris, AIX, or HP-UX servers.
