Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
tmpfs           4.1G   84K  4.1G   1% /dev/shm

                                                            iii.      OS – OEL 6.4 to OEL 7.2
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ cat /etc/oracle-release
Oracle Linux Server release 6.9

                                                           iv.      Install Oracle Pre-Installation RPM. This will install the required os libraries for Oracle Database installation.

1.        Login with root user
2.       Execute the below command and make sure that internet connection is available.
#yum install oracle-database-server-12cR2-preinstall

                                                             v.      Check ssh installed

[root@fmwdb12c ~]# rpm -qa | grep ssh
openssh-server-5.3p1-122.el6.x86_64
openssh-clients-5.3p1-122.el6.x86_64
openssh-5.3p1-122.el6.x86_64
openssh-askpass-5.3p1-122.el6.x86_64
libssh2-1.4.2-2.el6_7.1.x86_64
[root@fmwdb12c ~]#

                                                           vi.      Create Operating System Groups, Assign to user and create the installation directory

[root@fmwdb12c ~]# groupadd oper
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# groupadd dba
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# groupadd oinstall
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# usermod -g oinstall -G dba,oper oracle
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/12.2.0.1/db_1
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# chmod -R 775 /u01

                                                          vii.      Set Environment Parameters

[root@fmwdb12c ~]# su - oracle
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ cd /home/oracle/
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ vi .bash_profile

TMP=/tmp; export TMP
TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR

ORACLE_HOSTNAME=fmwdb12c; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME
ORACLE_UNQNAME=FMW12CDB; export ORACLE_UNQNAME
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/12.2.0.1/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_SID=FMW12CDB; export ORACLE_SID
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH



                                                        viii.      Check the resource limits

[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ ulimit -Sn
1024
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ ulimit -Hn
65536
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ ulimit -Su
16384
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ ulimit -Hu
16384
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ ulimit -Ss
10240
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$ ulimit -Hs
32768
[oracle@fmwdb12c ~]$

b.      Database file location

                                                               i.      File System – Operating system file system. We are following File System for the database installation in this post.

                                                             ii.      Automatic Storage Management – Oracle ASM disk group. Oracle ASM need to be installed and create the disk groups before starting the Oracle Installation.

c.       Installation Steps

[oracle@fmwdb12c tmp]$ cd /u01/sw/
[oracle@fmwdb12c sw]$ unzip linuxx64_12201_database.zip
[oracle@fmwdb12c sw]$ cd database/
[oracle@fmwdb12c sw]$./runInstaller



























Install the scripts using root user in a separate terminal.

[oracle@fmwdb12c database]$ su -
Password:
[root@fmwdb12c ~]# sh /u01/app/oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh
Changing permissions of /u01/app/oraInventory.
