General Requirements for UNIX/Linux

This section outlines requirements that apply to all UNIX/Linux operating systems. Specific requirements are listed under separate headings.

Kernel Settings

For recommended kernel settings, refer to the database installation guide (software and hardware requirements section) for your platform. Also refer to My Oracle Support Note 169706.1, "Oracle Database on Unix AIX,HP-UX,Linux,Mac OS X,Solaris,Tru64 Unix Operating Systems Installation and Configuration Requirements Quick Reference (8.0.5 to 11.2)".

LD_LIBRARY_PATH Environment Variable

Dynamic libraries are used as part of the relinking and execution processes. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable is used by Oracle Applications to locate the required dynamic libraries at runtime. Rapid Install sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH as follows:
On each application tier server node:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set in three places:
·         $APPL_TOP/admin/adovars.env
·         $ORACLE_HOME/<CONTEXT_NAME>.env, in both the 8.0.6 and iAS Oracle home directories
To change the value in any of the application tier locations, use the Edit Parameters function of the OAM AutoConfig tool to update the following fields (as required). Then, run AutoConfig (adautocfg.sh) to implement the changes.
Parameter
Value
adovars
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or SHLIB_PATH (HP-UX PA-RISC only) or LIBPATH (IBM AIX only)
iAS Oracle Home
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or SHLIB_PATH (HP-UX PA-RISC only) or LIBPATH (IBM AIX only)
Tools Oracle Home
LD_LIBRARY_PATH or SHLIB_PATH (HP-UX PA-RISC only) or LIBPATH (IBM AIX only)


Additional Information:
See AutoConfig in Oracle Applications Maintenance Utilities.




On the database server node:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH is set in $ORACLE_HOME/<CONTEXT_NAME>.env.

Linux x86 and Linux x86-64 (AMD64/EM64T) Requirements

This section describes requirements that are specific to Linux x86 and Linux x86-64 (AMD64/EM64T). Oracle Applications (11i) is supported on Linux x86 or Linux x86-64 (AMD64/EM64T) running the 32-bit version of the operating system only.

Note:
You can only install Oracle Applications on an x86-64 architecture server if the operating system is 32-bit Linux or Windows. If your operating system is 64-bit, contact your operating system vendor to obtain a 32-bit operating system before installing Oracle Applications.

All Linux x86 and Linux x86-64 (AMD64/EM64T) Operating Systems

Oracle Linux 4, Oracle Linux 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES 2.1, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES 3, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES 4, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9, SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 all have dependencies on the following components. Dependencies that pertain only to a subset of Linux x86 and x86-64 (AMD64/EM64T) operating systems are listed under separate headings.

Kernel Requirements

The following table lists the required minimum kernel versions (to determine version, enter: $ uname -r).
Operating System
Kernel
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
2.6.18-8.EL

glibc Requirements

The following table lists the required minimum glibc versions (to determine this, enter: $ rpm -q glibc).
Operating System
glibc
Oracle Linux 5
2.5-18




Domain Name System (DNS) Resolver Parameters

Two Domain Name System (DNS) resolver parameters (timeout and attempts) are set by default to low values when the operating system is installed. These low values may cause attempted network connections to an Oracle database to fail. If this happens, add or update the following entries to these minimum settings in the /etc/resolv.conf file on each server node:
options attempts:5
options timeout:15

Net Service Listeners in Multi-user Installations

Give all users in a multi-user installation write privileges to the .oracle directory:
$ chmod 777 /var/tmp/.oracle

Oracle Linux 4 and 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4 and 5 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, 9 and 10

This section describes requirements that apply only to Oracle Linux 4 and 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4 and 5 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8, 9 and 10.

Verifying Host Names

Use the following to verify host name settings:
For Oracle Linux 4 and 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4 and 5:
1.       Verify that the /etc/hosts file is formatted as follows:
2.        127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
<ip_address> <node_name>.<domain_name> <node_name>
3.       Verify that the /etc/sysconfig/network file is formatted as follows:
4.        HOSTNAME=<node_name>.<domain_name>
5.         
6.       If the /etc/sysconfig/networking/profiles/default/network file exists, remove it.
7.       If you changed any files in the previous steps, restart the system.


Modifying the Number of Open File Descriptors

Open the /etc/security/limits.conf file and change the existing values for "hard" and "soft" parameters as follows. Restart the system after making changes.
For Oracle Linux 4 and 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, 4 and 5 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 9 and 10:
* hard nofile 65535
* soft nofile 4096
For SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 8:
* hard nofile 32768
* soft nofile 32768

Modifying the Port Range Values

Open the /etc/sysctl.conf file and change the value of net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range as follows. Restart the system after making changes.
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 10000 65000
Please note that this range is a recommended range, and may need to be adjusted according to the specific needs of the user's environment in order to avoid port conflicts.

For Oracle Linux 5 and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 only :
# ln -s /usr/bin/ld215 /usr/bin/ld

Download and apply the OS library patch 6078836 from My Oracle Support and create the following symbolic link:
# ln -s /usr/lib/libdb.so.2 /usr/lib/libdb.so.3
  1. Verify that the host name setting is correct. The command should return a fully qualified host name. For example: <host_name>.<domain_name>.

# hostname -f
