Vmware + Linux + Oracle 10g rac series tutorial 1

1. experiment environment:

3. Create a virtual machine

1. Open vmware server, click "New Virtual Machine", and create a New Virtual Machine with the help of the Installation Wizard:

2. Click "Next ":

3. Select the appropriate configuration, select "m", and click "Next ":

4. Select the customer's operating system, select Linux and Red Hat Linux, and click "Next ":

5. Name the VM and set the VM name to dbrac1 (dbrac1 is the master node in the experiment, and dbrac2 is the slave node). Select "D: \ Virtual Machines \ dbrac1" as the path"

6. Set the access permission, cancel the "Make this virtual machine private" check box, and click "Next ":

7. enable/disable the option. Use the default option here and click "Next ":

8. Configure the processor, select a processor, and click "Next ":

9. Virtual Machine memory. By default, the system only provides MB memory. Based on the experiment requirements, we will provide MB memory:

10. Select "Use bridged networking" for the network type and click "Next ":

11. For the I/O adapter type, select "LSI Login" and click "Next ":

Note: The SCSI Adapter Driver "Bus Login" is not loaded when the VM is loaded. Therefore, even if the disk is allocated, it cannot be identified, this problem does not occur when "LSI Login" is selected.

12. Select a disk, select "Create a new Virtual Disk", and click "Next ":

13. Select the disk type. Remember to select the SCSI disk type here. Otherwise, select the I/O adapter type selected in the early stage and click "Next ":

Note: by default, this version of virtual machine can only create four Virtual Disks under the IDE type, and only four disks cannot meet the needs of the experiment, because we need at least five disks, one disk is used to install the linux operating system as a local disk. The two disks are used when the clusterware software is installed, that is, the ocr and vote disks required by oracle rac, which are displayed as bare devices, there are two more disks we want to use to install the database as a shared disk, so we must select SCSL here.

14. Specify the disk capacity and select 12 GB to complete the experiment and place the installation file. We recommend that you grant at least 8 GB of disk space and then click "Next ":

Note: you do not need to select "Allocate all space now" here. This option is mainly for later bare devices. Otherwise, it will waste a lot of time to Allocate disk space.

15. Specify the disk file, name the Virtual Disk dbrac1.vmdk, and click "finish ":

16. we can see that a simple virtual machine has been established. Under Devices, we can see that our virtual machine has all the components required by a Common Desktop: memory, CPU, optical drive, hard disk, and NIC:

Note: Do not rush to start the VM after it is created. Continue to complete the following steps first.
