Checking the Hardware Requirements Memory Requirements. The following are the memory requirements for installing Oracle Database 1. Release 2 1. 1. 2 Minimum 1 GB of RAMRecommended 2 GB of RAM or more. To determine the RAM size, enter the following command grep Mem. Total procmeminfo. Mem. Total procmeminfo. Mem. Total 5. B. rootrhel. So on our system we got 5. Gs that should be plenty for our small test systems
If the size of the RAM is less than the required size, then you must install more memory before continuing. Efficient Notes Free 3 0 Build 321 Portable Generators. The following table describes the relationship between installed RAM and the configured swap space recommendation Quick Note On Linux, the Huge. Pages feature allocates non swappable memory for large page tables using memory mapped files. If you enable Huge. Pages, then you should deduct the memory allocated to Huge. Pages from the available RAM before calculating swap space. Available RAM Swap Space Required. Between 1 GB and 2 GB 1. RAM. Between 2 GB and 1. GB Equal to the size of the RAM. More than 1. 6 GB 1. GB. To determine whether the system architecture can run the software, enter the following command rootrhel. This command displays the processor type. Verify that the processor architecture matches the Oracle software release to install. If you do not see the expected output, then you cannot install the software on this system. RHEL implementation was no necessary but If in your its, then quicklyfollow 6. Creating a Swap File from RHEL 6 docshttp docs. USRedHatEnterpriseLinux5htmlDeploymentGuides. To add a swap file 1. Determine the size of the new swap file in megabytes and multiply by 1. For example, the block size of a 6. MB swap file is 6. At a shell prompt as root, type the following command with count being equal to the desired block size
dd ifdevzero ofswapfile bs1. Setup the swap file with the command
mkswap swapfile. To enable the swap file immediately but not automatically at boot time
swapon swapfile. To enable it at boot time, edit etcfstab to include the following entry
swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0
The next time the system boots, it enables the new swap file. After adding the new swap file and enabling it, verify it is enabled by viewing the output of the command cat procswaps or free. To determine the available RAM and swap space, enter the following command free. Mem 5. 99. Swap 6. So it looks like were all good so far. Important Note Oracle recommends that you take multiple values for the available RAM and swap space before finalizing a value. This is because the available RAM and swap space keep changing depending on the user interactions with the computer. Contact your operating system vendor for swap space allocation guidance for your server. The vendor guidelines supersede the swap space requirements listed in this guide. Automatic Memory Management. Starting with Oracle Database 1. Automatic Memory Management feature requires more shared memory devshmand file descriptors. The shared memory should be sized to be at least the greater of MEMORYMAXTARGET and MEMORYTARGET for each Oracle instance on that computer. To determine the amount of shared memory available, enter the following command df h devshm. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use Mounted on. G 4. 00. K 3. 0. G 1 devshm. Another note MEMORYMAXTARGET and MEMORYTARGET cannot be used when LOCKSGA is enabled or with Huge. Pages on Linux. Disk Space Requirements. The following are the disk space requirements for installing Oracle Database 1. Release 2 1. 1. 2 At least 1 GB of disk space in the tmp directory. To determine the amount of disk space available in the tmp directory, enter the following command df h tmp. Filesystem Size Used Avail Use Mounted on. G 5. 2. G 5. 1. G 5. Were all good here or we shall see later on on the install process if need your sys admin will assist you with this or at least mine does. If there is less than 1 GB of free disk space available in the tmp directory, then complete one of the following steps Delete unnecessary files from the tmp directory to meet the disk space requirement. Set the TMP and TMPDIR environment variables when setting the oracle users environment. Now lets make sure we the least require space using df h. Installation Type Requirement for Software Files GB. Enterprise Edition 4. Installation Type Requirement for Data Files GB. Enterprise Edition 1. Additional disk space, either on a file system or on an Oracle Automatic Storage Management disk group is required for the fast recovery area if you choose to configure automated backups. Checking the Software Requirements Depending on the products that you intend to install, verify that the following softwares are installed on the system, but since were focusing on 1. R2 on RHEL 6. 3 then well just jump into itNote Oracle Universal Installer performs checks on the system to verify that it meets the listed requirements. To ensure that these checks pass, verify the requirements before you start Oracle Universal Installer. Operating System Requirements. For this implementation were focusing on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 and. Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 with the Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel for LinuxStarting with Oracle Database 1. Release 2 1. 1. 2, the Security Enhanced Linux SE Linux feature is supported for Oracle Linux 4, Oracle Linux 5, Oracle Linux 6, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
