Red Hat linux5 install Oracle 9i enterprise (1)

If you encounter a problem when installing Oracle 9i enterprise on Redhat Linux5, please read the following article to help you solve the problems related to the actual application of Oracle 9i enterprise. The installation steps are as follows:
Environment: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL5), Oracle9i (9.2.0.4.0)
For RHEL5 installation instructions, see [url = http://ox0spy.googlepages.com/rhel5install.txt?red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (RHEL5 ).
The commands starting with $ are executed by oracle.
# Commands starting with "root" are executed

[Color = DarkGreen] [size = 4] The package mentioned in the article provides a way to obtain the package. Please read the article carefully [/size] [/color]
1. Create users and groups
------------------------- Add users and groups used during installation
$ Su-
# Groupadd oinstall
# Groupadd dba
# Useradd-g oinstall-G dba oracle
# Passwd oracle

2. Create a directory
--------------------------
We will install everything in the/opt/oracle directory:
# Mkdir-p/opt/app/oracle/9.2.0
# Chown-R oracle. oinstall/opt/app/oracle

3. System Configuration
--------------------------
A) Set Kernel Parameters
Edit/etc/sysctl. conf
Kernel. shmmax = 536870912 if it is set to half of the physical memory 1 GB memory, the value is 512x1024x1024.
Kernel. shmmni = 4096 2 GB memory: 1024x1024x1024
Kernel. shmall = 2097152
Kernel. sem = 250 32000 100 128 none of other values need to be moved
Fs. file-max = 65536
Net. ipv4.ip _ local_port_range = 1024 65000

The four parameters of sem are SEMMSL (each user has the maximum number of semaphores );
SEMMNS (maximum number of system semaphores );
SEMOPM (number of calls to the semopm system each time );
SEMMNI (the maximum number of hard data sets in the system ).
Shmmax maximum shared memory 2 GB physical memory can be set to 536870912 if it is small.
Shmmni minimum shared memory: 4096KB.
All Shmall memory sizes.

Run sysctl to reflect the modification so that the kernel parameters take effect immediately. You can also restart it.
# Sysctl-p

You can also run the following command to change the kernel parameters:
# Echo 250 32000 100 128>/proc/sys/kernel/sem
# Echo 268435456>/proc/sys/kernel/shmmax #1/2 * mem_size (M) * 1024*1024
# Echo 4096>/proc/sys/kernel/shmmni
# Echo 524288>/proc/sys/kernel/shmall # mem_size (M) * 1024
# Echo 65536>/proc/sys/fs/file-max
# Echo 1024 65000>/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range

B) Set oracle file requirements
Modify the file:/etc/security/limits. conf
# Echo oracle soft nofile 65536>/etc/security/limits. conf
# Echo oracle hard nofile 65536>/etc/security/limits. conf
# Echo oracle soft nproc 16384>/etc/security/limits. conf
# Echo oracle hard nproc 16384>/etc/security/limits. conf

C) Set Environment Variables
Add the following lines to/home/oracle/. bash_profile:
Export ORACLE_SID = zhang
Export ORACLE_BASE =/opt/app/oracle
Export ORACLE_HOME =/opt/app/oracle/9.2.0
Export LD_LIBRARY_PATH =/opt/app/oracle/9.2.0/lib:/usr
/Lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/X11R6/lib
Export TNS_ADMIN =/opt/app/oracle/9.2.0/network/admin
Export ORA_NLS33 =/opt/app/oracle/9.2.0/ocommon/nls/admin/data
Export ORACLE_OWNER = oracle
Export ORACLE_TERM = xterm
Export PATH =/usr/kerberos/sbin:/usr/kerberos/bin:/usr/local
/Sbin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/root/bin :/
Opt/app/oracle/9.2.0/bin

4. Patch and install the required packages. For the reason for doing this, there will be a Tips later, which will show the installation errors and their Solution.
