AbbasiHi Abbasi,
It would be better if let me know version of Linux, how you plan to use the disk (direct or UDEV), RAC or Single instance.
Anyway, I'll assume you've using OEL/RHEL 5, UDEV for Single Instance (Oracle 10g installed) and only one disk (/dev/asm_disk1) configured for testing purpose.
Creating ASM instance on Linux (Single Instance) using DBCA
1. Add disk to Linux server
2. Configure UDEV for the device. E.g /dev/sdb -> /dev/asm_disk1 //check Oracle documentation for configure UDEV on RHEL/OEL 5. You can directly use /dev/sdc for testing purpose.
3. Change the owner of the disk. e.g. chown oracle:oinstall /dev/asm_disk1
4. As root user, run Oracle CSS script. The Cluster Synchronization Services (CSS) daemon provides cluster services for ASM, communication between the ASM and database instances, and other essential services
# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/localconfig add
5. As oracle user, run DBCA (X11 needed)
$ dbca
6. Select the "Configure Automatic Storage Management" option, then click the "Next" Button.
7. Enter a password for the ASM instance, then click the "Next" button.
8. On the confirmation screen, click the "OK" button to create the ASM instance
9. Once the ASM instance is created, you are presented with the "ASM Disk Groups" screen. Click the "Create New" button.
10. On the "Create Disk Group" screen, enter Disk Group Name of e.g. "DATA" and select the required level of redundancy.
•     External - ASM does not mirror the files. This option should only be used if your disks are already protected by some form of redundancy, like RAID.
•     Normal - ASM performs two-way mirroring of all files.
•     High - ASM performs three-way mirroring of all files.
11. If you didn't find any disk, click "Change Disk Discovery Path..." and enter "/dev/asm_disk1"
12. Select "External" for redundancy, tick the disk (/dev/asm_disk1) and click "OK" button.
13. On the "ASM Disk Groups" screen. Click the "Finish" button.
To access the ASM instance :
1. As oracle user, export the ORACLE_SID
$ export ORACLE_SID=+ASM
2. sqlplus "/as sysdba"
3. SQL> select name, total_mb, free_mb from v$asm_diskgroup;
SQL> select name, path, header_status from v$asm_disk;
To access the ASM command line utility:
1. As oracle user, export the ORACLE_SID
$ export ORACLE_SID=+ASM
2. Enter the asmcmd command
$ asmcmd

HI,
Can anybody help me that to give some answers of my question's ?
can i install oracle 10g RAC on a single hdd linux server which is installed on an ordinary intel processor based machine.
if i can then plz tell me this how can i do this.
i am new in linux server just wanted to learn that how to install oracle 10g RAC.

The only option you have to install RAC on 1 machine is to use Oracle VM, VMWare or Linux Virtualization feature (Linux Xen).

Oracle 10g R2 installation with ASM+RAC

Gurus,
Need some suggestuon on Oracle 10g R2 installation with ASM and RAC option.
We have found many documents on the Oracle, HP, HP-Oracle CTC and third party web sites, but nothing that is specific to this particular combination of separate
ORACLE_HOMEs, ASM and 10g RAC CRS. It is unclear for me from the documentation how this combination of ASM and 10.2g RAC may best be installed.
The high level steps i got after reading lot of docs as follows - but i am not sure whether these are correct or not. if they are correct, can any one share their experience/notes please?
1) Install CRS
2) Install RDBMS for ASM HOME - create separater oracle home for ASM instance using OUI
3) Install RDBMS for RAC Database Home - create separater oracle home for RAC database using OUI
4) Create ASM database using DBCA -
5) Use dbca to create database.

Oracle provides 'paint by numbers' tutorials called 'Oracle By Example'. (Go to OTN, check under the Training tab)
They have one for a Windows based ASM/RAC that you might want to review. Not your specific environment, but the steps will be dag-nabbed close.
I recommend walking the path (http://otn.oracle.com >> training:OBE >> Database 10g Release 1:VMWare:Installation

Oracle 10g R2 installation on sun solaris 10 Sparc machine

Hi there,
I encountered the following problem during oracle 10g R2 installation on sun solaris 10 Sparc machine

The following were the steps taken before encountering the above error
1. logged into a workstation
2. From its xterm terminal I logged to the oracle server via ssh oracle@ip
3. keyed in the following at the command prompt
DISPLAY=machine_name:0.0; export DISPLAY
4. executed the following from the command prompt
./runInstaller
Note: when executing the ./runInstaller, the preinstallation checking just hangs at Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. But the log file shows it failed during preinstallation checking as shown in Error encountered
Please help me with this problem.
Thank you
Ravindran Kanniah

It is because of UNIX shell. I also faced this error during installation.
First check your shell by the following command.
$ echo $SHELL
Then select the below.
For csh shell
$ setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
For sh,ksh and bash
$ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
After you do this check the value of DISPLAY variable.
$ echo $DISPLAY
If the DISPLAY variable is set then run ./runInstaller.
One advice: Keep a complete log of your terminal session. This will help you in future :)

Create a new user for oracle 10G ASM instance with sysdba system privilege

Hi,
In our Golden Gate Project, we require the SYS user credential to connect to the Oracle 10g ASM instance to read the database transaction logs.But our client is not providing the SYS user credential to connnect to ASM instance.
I'm getting the error message "ORA-01109: database not open",When I tried to create a new user using the below the steps in oracle 10g ASM instance
1. Login using "sqlplus / as sysdba"
2. Create user <username> identified by <password>;
But in oracle 11g ASM instance, I'm able to create new user by connecting the ASM instance with SYSASM role without issues.
Is there is any workaround to create a new user with sysdba system privilege in oracle 10g ASM instance?.
Thanks in advance .

Hi,
Recreate the password file for the ASM instance as follows:
Unix:
orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/dbs/PWD<SID> password=<sys_password>
Windows:
orapwd file=<ORACLE_HOME>/database/PWD<SID>.ora password=<sys_password>
Now sys password is reset, we are ready to use sys for ASM management. I decided to create another user ASMDBA as I tried above.
SQL> create user ASMDBA identified by test01;
User created.
SQL> grant SYSASM, SYSOPER to ASMDBA;
Grant succeeded.
SQL> select * from v$pwfile_users;
USERNAME SYSDBA SYSOPE SYSASM
SYS TRUE TRUE TRUE
ASMDBA FALSE TRUE TRUE
Please see this link : http://orachat.com/how-to-change-asm-sys-password-creating-sysasm-user-11g/
Thank you

How do I map Hitachi SAN LUNs to Solaris 10 and Oracle 10g ASM?

Hi all,
I am working on an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM installation with Sun E6900 servers attached to a Hitachi SAN for shared storage with Sun Solaris 10 as the server OS. We are using Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) RAC clusterware
for the clustering software and raw devices for shared storage and Veritas VxFs 4.1 filesystem.
My question is this:
How do I map the raw devices and LUNs on the Hitachi SAN to Solaris 10 OS and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
I am aware that with an Oracle 10g RAC and ASM instance, one needs to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter file to set the asm_diskstring setting to recognize the LUNs that are presented to the host.
I know that Sun Solaris 10 uses /dev/rdsk/CwTxDySz naming convention at the OS level for disks. However, how would I map this to Oracle 10g ASM settings?
I cannot find this critical piece of information ANYWHERE!!!!
Thanks for your help!

Yes that is correct however due to use of Solaris 10 MPxIO multipathing software that we are using with the Hitachi SAN it does present an extra layer of complexity and issues with ASM configuration. Which means that ASM may get confused when it attempts to find the new LUNs from the Hitachi SAN at the Solaris OS level. Oracle Metalink note 396015.1 states this issue.
So my question is this: how to configure the ASM instance initialization parameter asm_diskstring to recognize the new Hitachi LUNs presented to the Solaris 10 host?
Lets say that I have the following new LUNs:
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d1s6
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d2s6
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d3s6
/dev/rdsk/c7t1d4s6
Would I set the ASM initialization parameter for asm_diskstring to /dev/rdsk/c7t1d*s6
as correct setting so that the ASM instance recognizes my new Hitachi LUNs? Solaris needs to map these LUNs using pseudo devices in the Solaris OS for ASM to recognize the new disks.
How would I set this up in Solaris 10 with Sun multipathing (MPxIO) and Oracle 10g RAC ASM?
I want to get this right to avoid the dreaded ORA-15072 errors when creating a diskgroup with external redundancy for the Oracle 10g RAC ASM installation process.

Oracle 10g database installation in red hat 5

what are the packages needed for oracle 10g database installation in red hat 5?
what do you mean by yum way of installation?

Check on the release notes for your platform
This is for x86-64 Linux.. read it all, then you'll find the "6 Documentation Corrections and Additions" section you'll find the RPMs that you need
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/relnotes.102/b15666/toc.htm
then go to the official doc installation of 10gR2 on x86-64 Linux
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15667/toc.htm
Yum is a package management tool. This is what you'll be using to install the RPMs. But first you'll have to setup the Yum repository, usually what I do is stage the DVD media on the server then make it as a repository. If ever there's a specific (higher) version that I need then I just pull it on the RedHat Network.
There are a lot of HOWTOs about Yum. You may read on this link http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/en/

Oracle 10g client installation on OpenVMS 8.3 Itanium

I am trying to perform the installation of Oracle 10g client installation on OpenVMS 8.3 Itanium. I am getting the OUI (Oracle Universal Installer) window up and as soon as I click the "next" button it errors. The error is:
SEVERE: OUI-10207:There is not enough disk space on the OUI swap area /dsa50/temp/OraInstall2007-06-05_06-19-23PM. Please make at le
ast 9MB of space available and retry.
The disk for the oracle installation temp location and home location are in different directories on the same ODS-5 formated disk. The disk has approximately 251711296 free blocks.
The trace.log located in the <oracle_home> area shows the following:
in ssGetVolumeFreeSpace
in ssGetVolumeFreeSpace:before getFreeSpace:DSA50
Vol name is DSA50
Disk name is [.DSA50]
Disk=, Free blocks = 3362
in ssGetVolumeFreeSpace:after getFreeSpace:3362
returning from ssGetVolumeFreeSpace
The "temp" disk is DSA50.
Has anyone seen this issue with installation of the client on a large disk?
Are there any suggestions on what to do to correct this issue?

SEVERE: OUI-10207:There is not enough disk space. This error may be present at the Open VMS Itanium platform at it is due to bug 5981203 "OUI CALCULATES AVAILABLE DISK SPACE WRONG" and bug 5580279 "OUI FAILS WITH OUI-10207 ERROR". It is fixed in 10.2.0.3.0
As a workaround, use a logical diskname or the volume name and not the physical device name
