Installing Oracle 10g RAC Binaries
The following sample steps for a SGeRAC cluster for Oracle 10g. Refer to the Oracle documentation
for Oracle installation details.
Installing RAC Binaries on a Local File System
Logon as a “oracle” user:
$ export ORACLE BASE=/mnt/app/oracle
$ export DISPLAY={display}:0.0
$ cd <10g RAC installation disk directory>
$ ./runInstaller
Use following guidelines when installing on a local file system:
1. In this example, the path to ORACLE_HOME is on a local file system /mnt/app/oracle/
product/10.2.0/db_1.
2. Select installation for database software only.
3. When prompted, run root.sh on each node.
Installing RAC Binaries on Cluster File System
Logon as a “oracle” user:
$ export ORACLE BASE=/cfs/mnt1/oracle
$ export DISPLAY={display}:0.0
$ cd <10g RAC installation disk directory>
$ ./runInstaller
Use following guidelines when installing on a local file system:
1. In this example, the path to ORACLE_HOME is locate on a CFS directory /cfs/mnt1/
oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1.
2. Select installation for database software only.
3. When prompted, run root.sh on each node.
Creating a RAC Demo Database
This section demonstrates the steps for creating a demo database with datafiles on raw volumes
with SLVM or CVM, or with Cluster File System (on HP-UX releases that support them; see
“About Veritas CFS and CVM from Symantec” (page 18)).
Creating a RAC Demo Database on SLVM or CVM
Export environment variables for “oracle” user:
export ORACLE_BASE=/mnt/app/oracle
export DBCA_RAW_CONFIG=/mnt/app/oracle/oradata/ver10/ver10_raw.conf
export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1
export ORA_CRS_HOME=/mnt/app/crs/oracle/product/10.2.0/crs
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
SHLIB_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib32:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib32
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH SHLIB_PATH
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORA_CRS_HOME/bin:/usr/local/bin:
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jre:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/network/jlib
export CLASSPATH
export DISPLAY={display}:0.0
