RHEL 4 to OEL 5

Is it possible to upgrade from RHEL 4 to OEL 5 on 10gR2?
Thanks.

Please take a look at the thread below:

  • OEL-5 finally released but with many desktop packages missing

    Hi,
    OEL-5 GA has just been released but with many client (desktop) packages missing (as opposed to CENTOS-5 where all RHEL-5 categories are bundled into only one distribution). Namely, three months ago RHEL-5 has been released in three basic categories:
    1. Red Hat Enterprise Linux Desktop
    2. Red Hat Enterprise Linux
    3. Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Platform
    The complete souce code for these distributions resides in two Red Hat ftp directories: "5Client" and "5Server" with different contents. It seems that OEL-5 GA includes only packages from "5Server" directory. So, many important applications are missing:
    - openoffice.org
    - kdepim (kmail, knode etc)
    - thunderbird
    - fribidi
    - gaim
    - k3b
    etc.
    I'm little confused, since it would be very stupid to have to download those packages from CENTOS-5 or self-compiling them from Red Hat source rpm download site.
    N.J.

    Thanks a lot Wim.
    Yes I know, the problem didn't exist in RHEL-4/OEL-4, since AS was superset of ES, WS and Desktop. Unfortunatelly, It's not the case in version 5 where client version includes many packages that are missing in server version and vice versa. To avoid complications with new subscription channels, I would suggest the simplest and the most logical solution: all three categories BUNDLED in single distribution OEL-5 GA and only one subscription channel, just like CENTOS-5 (six CD ISOs).

  • OEL 5.5 on SunFire 4450?

    Has anyone installed OEL 5 (any update) on a SunFire 4450? I tried several times and they all failed. After burning the DVD from downloads (from OTN), the installation stalls at this stage - Need Enterprise Linux CD, please insert disk.
    If anyone was able to do a sucessful install, please let me know where to get the software from.
    Thanks,
    Dan.

    We are running different versions of RHEL and OEL on various Sunfire models (from the old v20z's, v40's, x4100's, x4600's etc). Cannot recall any installation problems. We used RHEL downloaded ISO images, kickstart images via bootp, and OEL downloaded ISO images.
    Do you have trouble booting the actual DVD media? Make sure you download the correct installation media - and burn it as an ISO image (as downloaded) and not as a data created DVD (i.e. mounted ISO via loop device and copying contents to DVD).

  • Why is kernel-2.6.9 (OEL-4) faster than kernel-2.6.18 (OEL-5) ?

    Hi,
    as long as RHEL-5 and then OEL-5 have been released, I have been wondering why my own programs, compiled and run on RHEL-5/OEL-5, are slower than the same programs compiled and run on RHEL-4/OEL-4 on the same machine. This is really barmy since gcc-4.1, shipped with RHEL-5/OEL-5, is very aggressive compiler and produces faster binary code than gcc-3.4.6, shipped with RHEL-4/OEL-4. I verified this hundred times testing both compilers on RHEL-4/OEL-4 and RHEL-5/OEL-5. The 4.1 compiler always produces faster executable on the same OS.
    The problem is obviously in kernel-2.6.18. There is something in the kernel (maybe scheduler?) that slows down the execution of programs. But what? I experimented with changing various kernel boot parameters (eg "acpi=off" etc), even tried to recompile the kernel many times with various combinations of config parameters, and nothing helps. Thus, I'm still wondering whether the problem is solvable by disabling one or more config parameters and recompiling the kernel, or is deeply embedded in the main kernel code.
    Is there anybody in this forum who experienced the same, say running OEL-4 before migrating to OEL-5?
    Here are two examples showing different execution times on OEL-4.5 (kernel-2.6.9-55.0.5.0.1.EL.i686, gcc-3.4.6-8.0.1) and OEL-5 (kernel-2.6.18-8.1.10.0.1.el5, gcc-4.1.1-52.el5.2). The first example is trivial but very sensitive to overal system load and kernel version. The second example is "Sieve of Eratosthenes" - the program for finding prime numbers (CPU bound).
    EXAMPLE 1.
    /*  Simle program for text screen console  */
    /*  very sensitive to overall system load  */
    /*  and kernel version                     */
    #include <stdio.h>
    int main(void)
        register int i;
        for(i = 0; i < 1000000; i++)
         printf(" %d ", i);
        return 0;
    /* end of program */
    $ gcc -O2 -o example1 -s example1.c
    $ time ./example1The average execution times on OEL-4.5 and OEL-5 are as follow:
    Mode      OEL-4.5         OEL-5
    real      0m3.141s        0m4.931s
    user      0m0.394s        0m0.366s
    sys       0m2.747s        0m4.563s
    ----------------------------------As we can see, the program on the same machine, compiled and run on OEL-4.5 (gcc-3.4.6 and kernel-2.6.9) is 57% faster than the same program compiled and run on OEL-5 (gcc-4.1.1 and kernel-2.6.18), although gcc-4.1.1 produces much faster binary code. Since the times the process spent in user mode are almost equal on both OS, the whole difference is due to the time the process spent in kernel mode. Note that kernel mode (sys) is taking 66% more time on OEL-5. It tells me that "something" in the kernel-2.6.18 slows down the execution of the program.
    In the second example OEL-4.5 is also faster than OEL-5, but the differences in execution times are not so drastic as in the first example.
    EXAMPLE 2.
    /*           Sieve of Eratosthenes           */
    #define GNUSOURCE
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <stdlib.h>
    #define MAX_PRIME_AREA 100000

         fprintf(stderr,"Memory block too big!\nMemory allocation failed!\a\n");
         exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
        for(count = 0; count < REPEAT_LOOP; count++)
         for(prime = 0; prime < (MAX_PRIME_AREA + 1); prime++)
                 *(sieve_array + prime) = (char) '\0';
         for(prime = 3; prime < (MAX_PRIME_AREA + 1); prime += 2)
             if (! *(sieve_array + prime) )
              *(sieve_array + prime) = (char) 'P';  /* offset prime is a prime */
                 for(composite = (2 * prime); composite < (MAX_PRIME_AREA + 1); composite += prime)
                  *(sieve_array + composite) = (char) 'X';  /* offset composite is a composite */
            /* DO NOT COMPILE FOR TEST !!!
            fprintf(stdout, "\n%d\n", 2);
            for(prime = 3; prime < (MAX_PRIME_AREA + 1); prime += 2)
                if ( *(sieve_array + prime) == 'P' )
                    fprintf(stdout, "%d\n", prime);
        free(sieve_array);

    An hour? Hard to believe or is your hardware that
    old?An hour? That's a super good time for 3 kernel
    packages (i686, xen and PAE) with all modules, plus 3
    kernel-devel packages, plus debuginfo package of
    150-580 MB where smart people at Red Hat decided to
    put uncompressed vmlinux image which is necessary for
    kernel profiling and debugging. Ah, I had a different kernel make process in mind.
    Oracle doesn't ship
    debuginfo package. Of course, this is when I build a
    "complete suite" of kernel rpm packages using
    unmodified spec file. And, to be honest, it takes
    much more than an hour, maybe even two hours. Another
    thing is compiling single i686 kernel without
    building a package. But it also takes at least half
    an hour. Anyway the time significantly depends on how
    many modules are selected to be built in.That what I was looking for.
    What's your time to build a single kernel (which
    version?) with default set of modules ? On which
    hardware ? I've only access to a root server right now, which is

  • Versions of OEL

    Dear all,
    I'm curious as to what version of OEL I should test with whilst evaluating OEL/OUL. At the moment, we host our databases on top of RHEL 3 and RHEL 4.
    What versions of RHEL do OEL 4 and OEL 5 correspond to? Is there a particular reason why we would run OEL 4 when OEL 5 is out now? When will they be desupported?
    FYI, we are running Oracle RDBMS 10g.
    TIA

    Hi, There:
    From http://www.oracle.com/support/collateral/enterprise-linux-support-policies.pdf:
    Right to Desupport
    It may become necessary as a part of Oracle's support lifecycle to desupport certain Enterprise Linux program releases and, therefore, Oracle reserves the right to desupport certain Enterprise Linux program releases. Enterprise Linux program releases that are included in the attached “Lifetime Support Policy: Coverage for Enterprise Linux” (PDF) document are excluded. Desupport information, including desupport dates, and information about migration paths for certain features, is posted on http://linux.oracle.com/desupport.html. Desupport information is subject to change. Oracle will provide updated desupport information on http://linux.oracle.com/desupport.html as necessary.
    so please goto

    Thanks for the tip.
    Correct me if I am wrong but you have set up SLED SP1 connecting to an OS like (RHEL 4/OEL 4,SuSE 9) using VMWare Server. What OS is SLED?
    I chose SUSE 10.3 as its free and I want to set up apps server for purely training purposes. Do you know of a free linux OS that is certified to run AS 10g 10.1.2.0.2?
    Thanks

  • Oracle Linux vs. redhat 5.2 - Which one do I go with????

    Which one should it be? Can anyone shed some light on this decision?
    Your thoughts...
    -Rob

    The light in which I see this is much like segio's:
    RHEL & OEL are build from the same source, and will be copies of each other (remember the goal of OEL is to remain in binary and source compatible with RHEL)
    I want to add another version of RHEL, CentOS to this discussion.
    If you want enterprise grade support, RHEL and OEL are clearly the choices. The real choice between RHEL and OEL is where you want your support to come from. There's no such thing as better in this area.
    If you want to be able to update your linux install without a paid support contract, take a look at centos. It is very convenient to have a RHEL compatible linux version, with yum working out of the box, and have updates and the ability to install other packages from repositories on the internet.

    Did you follow all this?
    Follow Operating System Requirements for OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x
    1. The following packages (or later versions) must be installed on your Linux x86 or Linux x86-64 system:
    binutils-2.16.91.0.5-23.4
    gcc-4.1.0-28.4
    gcc-c++-4.1.0-28.4
    glibc-devel-2.4-31.2
    libgcc-4.1.0-28.4
    libstdc++-devel-4.1.0-28.4
    libstdc++-4.1.0-28.4
    make-3.80-202.2
    compat-db 4.1.25-9
    Note:
    The Oracle Application Server 10g is a 32-bit application to be installed on either Linux x86 or Linux x86-64. These are 32-bit installation requirements on Linux x86-64 in order allow compatibility with the 32-bit Application Server product. Please see the Installation Guide for more details on the Linux x86-64 and other general requirements. This Note does not replace the Installation Guide, as its only stating the newer and specific OEL5/RHEL5 requirements.
    2. Ensure that libXp has been installed. The package libXp was not installed in RHEL 5/OEL 5 with default RPM packages, so it will need to be installed manually. In RHEL 4 this file was provided by the package xorg-x11-deprecated-libs which is installed with default package installation but this is not the case for RHEL5/OEL5 and is now provided with a different rpm, the libXp rpm. Install the package libXp by the command:
    # rpm -ivh </path/to/>libXp.<version>.i386.rpm
    Note: libXp.so.6 can be found by installing the package /Server/libXp-1.0.0-8.1.el5.i386.rpm under Disk3 of the OEL5 media.
    Issue the following to confirm:
    % rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE} (%{ARCH})\n" | grep libXp
    [ Reference Note 443617.1 ]
    3. The following are two requirements and their locations to obtain them from Oracle:
    openmotif21-2.1.30-11.EL5.i386.rpm
    [http://oss.oracle.com/projects/compat-oracle/dist/files/Enterprise_Linux/openmotif21-2.1.30-11.EL5.i386.rpm]
    xorg-x11-libs-compat-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.1.i386.rpm
    [http://oss.oracle.com/projects/compat-oracle/dist/files/Enterprise_Linux/xorg-x11-libs-compat-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.1.i386.rpm]
    4. When installing Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2) within the OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x operating systems, you will need to create the following symbolic link as root prior to doing any installations:
    # ln -s /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/libdb.so.2
    If an error occurs stating that libdb.so.2 already exists, it may be from a previous 10.1.3 installation. In this case, either move the file for backup and create the symbolic link or skip this step to see if the following problem occurs.
    * Without this symbolic link, httpd will give the following error:
    httpd: error while loading shared libraries: libdb.so.2:
    cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    With this link in place, httpd should start up successfully in OEL 5.0 or RHEL 5.0
    Note: On some OEL installs, libgdbm.so.2.0.0 may not exist. You can check the following way:
    # cat /etc/enterprise-release
    Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.2 (Carthage)
    # ls /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2.0.0
    If you are missing the 32-bit version, it can be installed using gdbm.i386 0:1.8.0-26.2.1. Alternatively, Patch 6078836 can be used instead, as it was uploaded to complete a 10.1.3 certification.
    5. The installation of Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2) requires the correct openmotif package to be installed on your OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x box. Without the correct package, you will run into installation errors for those components that require openmotif (such as reports and forms). You may download the RPM package from the following location:
    [http://oss.oracle.com/projects/compat-oracle/dist/files/Enterprise_Linux/openmotif21-2.1.30-11.EL5.i386.rpm]
    As root, you can install this RPM package by issuing the following command:
    # rpm -i openmotif21-2.1.30-11.EL5.i386.rpm
    6. Any installation of Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2) on OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x in which Reports is getting installed will fail with reports relinking errors unless you apply the required RPM listed below.You may download the RPM package from the following location:
    [http://oss.oracle.com/projects/compat-oracle/dist/files/Enterprise_Linux/xorg-x11-libs-compat-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.1.i386.rpm]
    As root, you can install this RPM package by issuing the ollowing command
    # rpm -i xorg-x11-libs-compat-6.8.2-1.EL.33.0.1.i386.rpm
    After the RPM, is installed, you will also need to override the /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6 with the one from /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6. As root, issue the commands:
    # mv /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6 /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6.ORG
    # ln –s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6 /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6
    Note:
    On future OEL 5.x and RHEL 5.x versions, these packages may be cumulative to newer packages. Consult operating system vendor documentation for details.
    Follow Installation Requirements for OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x
    1. Before installing Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2.0.2) , apply Patch 6687768 in order to start the installer. If you do not apply this patch, pre-req check for the OS Version will fail when you invoke the runInstaller.
    2. Follow all other instructions from the Installation Guide and Release Notes. This Metalink Note is only for specific OEL 5.x and RHEL 5.x requirements.
    * Oracle Application Server 10g (10.1.2.0.2) Release Notes and Installation Guides
    [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_19/getstart.htm]
    Important:
    The Known Issues below are for issues that have been found to occur during the installation, and require steps to resolve. Depending on your installation options, review the Known Issues to prevent the errors from occurring.
    3. Apply Patch 5983622, which is the Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2, Patch Set 3 (10.1.2.3). This is required in order to be fully certified on OEL 5.x or RHEL 5.x. More information regarding 10.1.2.3 can be found in Note:329361.1, Table 2.
    Note 329361.1 Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) Support Status and Alerts
    --See: "Table 2: Oracle Application Server Patchsets"
    Known Issues
    1. When performing any Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) installation, a pop-up error message box may appear indicating “opmn not started”. The error message box appears just before the root.sh phase of the install. From the command line, issue the command “opmnctl status” and it should show that opmn is up and running. Hence, you can ignore this pop-up error message and continue with the installation.
    2. Apply Patch 6690831 if you are performing an Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) installation which includes Discoverer. Without this fix, the installation will fail during the OPMN Configuration Assistant phase because it cannot start up the Discoverer processes. The Discoverer processes fail to start because there is an LD_ASSUME_KERNEL setting that needs to be removed in opmn.xml for Discoverer. The issue can be fixed following the below steps:
    * Download Patch 6690831
    * Unzip it to a working directory
    * Run the shell script provided in the patch
    * After shell script runs successfully, go back to OUI install
    * and press Retry on the OPMN Configuration Assistant
    3. Apply the Patch 6706051 if you are performing an Oracle Application Server 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) installation which includes Oracle Certification Authority (OCA). Without this fix, the installation will fail during the Oracle Certification Authority Configuration Assistant phase. The issue can be fixed following the below steps:
    * Download Patch 6706051
    * Unzip it to a working directory
    * Run the shell script provided in the patch
    * Extra step script missed: chmod 700 cminst
    * After shell script and chmod, go back to OUI install and press
    Retry on the Oracle Certification Authority Configuration Assistant
    4. Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese fonts are missing in OEL 5 with update levels less than 3 (OEL5.3). On this level, the product in Simplified Chinese and Traditional
    Chinese language can not be accomplished without a specific package installed.
    Solution:
    If you have an OEL5 version with update level 2 or lower, install the following package:
    fonts-chinese-3.02-12.el5.noarch.rpm
    This is available at the following location:

    Thanks for the tip.
    Correct me if I am wrong but you have set up SLED SP1 connecting to an OS like (RHEL 4/OEL 4,SuSE 9) using VMWare Server. What OS is SLED?
    I chose SUSE 10.3 as its free and I want to set up apps server for purely training purposes. Do you know of a free linux OS that is certified to run AS 10g 10.1.2.0.2?
    Thanks

  • Certification of OMS 11.1.0.1 and 10.2.0.5 on Redhat 5.3 and 5.5

    IHAC who wants to install OMS 11.1 on Redhat 5.3 or 5.5 and asked about certification.
    We checked in "Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control Certification Checker [ID 412431.1]" and found:
    Linux x64 (AMD64/EM64T)
    OMS 11.1.0.1:
    RHEL 4 (Update 7), RHEL 5 (Update 2), OEL 4 (Update 7), OEL 5 (Update 2)
    (NOTE: RHEL and OEL Updates are supported)
    OMS 10.2.0.5.x
    RHEL 3.0, 4.0, 5.0; SLES 9, 10; OEL 4, 5; (NOTE: RHEL and OEL Updates are supported)
    The sentence "*RHEL and OEL Updates are supported*" shall confirm, that both RH 5.3 and 5.5 are supported.
    Can anybody confirm this ?
    Edited by: user646444 on Oct 28, 2010 3:14 PM

    Hi,
    The sentence "RHEL and OEL Updates are supported" shall confirm, that both RH 5.3 and 5.5 are supported.Yes you are right, both are supported. Normally certification is does against the main release (i.e. RHEL4, RHEL5) and all their updates are not a new version of the OS, hence these are by default sported, unless explicitly mentioned otherwise.

  • Oracle 10gR2 on Oracle Linux

    Hi,
    The Oracle Linux 5 is better than another distribution such as Suse?
    Has he some better performance relative to other distributions?
    My OS SLES9
    My DB Oracle 10gR2

    Hi;
    The Oracle Linux 5 is better than another distribution such as Suse?
    Has he some better performance relative to other distributions?
    My OS SLES9
    My DB Oracle 10gR2This is deeply question to its better to ask this on Linux related forum site which is avaliable at Forum Home » Linux » Oracle Linux
    But i can tell you all big companies prefer to use OEL or RHEL distributions for their works wiht my experience. I also advice Rhel or OEL for my customers if they want to use linux on their servers.
    I never meet any client which is working wiht Suse for a now. But it doesnt mean some company can use this distribution.

  • ASM lun configuration

    Hi, I'm was what would be the best configuration performance-wise for our ASM-instance with the Oracle database (we're using 11.2.0.3.0). The server is a T5140 and the storage array is a SUN 2540 with 12*600GB 15k rpm SAS disks and we're using external RAID ( through CAM) for the setup. The traffic pattern will most likely be composed of a high number of small inserts and large reads (50% small high freq writes, 50% large reads).
    Basically I think we have two alternatives when we build the ASM-diskgroup, and these are:
    Alternative 1: 2 Disk LUNs containing 6*600GB disks in RAID1 (2*6). So each LUN contains 6 disks. That means that the ASM will see 2 disks.
    Alternative 2: 6 Disk LUNs containing 2* 600GB disks in RAID1 (6*2). So each LUN contains 2 disks. That means that the ASM will see 6 disks.
    We'll have both controlfiles,redo and data-files on the same DG.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions I can get.
    Regards,
    Lars
