Tanvir,

It’s not mandatory for you to have all 3 groups. But at times you want some users who can make sysdba connection to database and not allow them to patch oracle installation. You can read install guides for detailed information

This is very straight forward and clear.It has become easy when compared to referring the looong docs.

Geetha,

You do not require ACFS for installing oracle binaries. Moreover I think ACFS is only available on OEL5 and RHEL5 as of now (i.e 11.2.0.1) and not available on AIX

Hi,
Has anyone tried to install 11gR2 RAC on IBM AIX? Can the binaries be installed locally or is ACFS a must?

Thanks

Borja,

Please find response to your queries below

1. You need to create a file in oracle user home directory i.e /home/oracle.
$vi .bash_profile
copy the contents and save the file
2. Yes.
3. Yes , you will have to change the permissions. Suppose your installation files are in folder dump, then do following
#chown -R oracle:oinstall dump

Meanwhile would recommend you to start reading unix stuff. It’s pretty cool and I hope you will enjoy the experience

Cheers
Amit

Managed to solve this problem

Taken from http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14100_14/relnotes.1012/relnotes/install.htm

3.1.1.3 /etc/system Requirements for Installation

As part of the pre-requisite checks conducted by Oracle Universal Installer prior to installation of Oracle Application Server, kernel parameters are inspected in the /etc/system file. However, the kernel values described in the Oracle Application Server 10g Installation Guide are not used on the Solaris 10 system.

As a workaround, make changes to kernel parameter values in the /etc/system file as indicated in the Requirements chapter of the Oracle Application Server 10g Installation Guide prior to installation of Oracle Application Server. Following installation of Oracle Application Server on the Solaris 10 system, remove the changes you made to the values specified in the /etc/system file.

In summary, the changes made to the kernel parameters in the /etc/system file should be temporary and should be undone after installation of Oracle Application Server is completed.

We have Oracle database running fine on Solaris 10

I am trying to install OID on the same machine.
When accepting Identity Management and Repository Option I get a popup saying
Dependencies. The following kernel parameters do not meet the recommended values for database installation.
The value of semmni is less than 100, and 7 more

What do I need to change
I have done as suggested above.
