Preparation Steps• Login to virtual server tom as user oracle.
• Copy linux_11gR2_database_1of2.zip and linux_11gR2_database_2of2.zip into /u01/staging.
• Unzip both files using "unzip" command:
[grid@tom staging]$ unzip linux_11gR2_database_1of2.zip
[grid@tom staging]$ unzip linux_11gR2_database_2of2.zip
• Make sure the time settings on tom and jerry are in sync:
[oracle@tom ~]$ date
Wed Jun 9 22:17:06 PDT 2010
[oracle@jerry ~]$ date
Wed Jun 9 22:17:07 PDT 2010
• If the time difference is more than a few seconds, the installation could fail, so you would have to adjust the time, for example:
[root@tom ~]$ date +%T -s "10:13:13"
[root@jerry ~]$ date +%T -s "10:13:13"
• Go to /u01/staging/database directory and start the installation by issuing:
./runInstaller
Wait for installation process to complete. The database installation process will start automatically.
Executing "root" scripts in the right order
a. Execute root.sh script on tom first and wait for successful comlpetion:
[root@tom ~]$ /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db1/root.sh
b. Execute root.sh script on jerry only after it successfully completes on tom:
[root@jerry ~]$ /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db1/root.sh
c. Click "OK" on "Execute Configuration Scripts" window.
If you hit bug 8670579 during the Grid installation, you most likely are going to have problems with the Database installation as well. The solution is to install the same patch 8670579 in Oracle Home as well.
