Configuring legacy and modular Oracle ASM instance and Database
instance toolkit packages
This section describes the steps to configure Oracle ASM instance and Database instance toolkit
packages.
• “Configuring legacy Oracle database package without ASM” (page 11)
• “Configuring modular Oracle database package without ASM” (page 17)
• “Configuring legacy ASM instance and Database instance packages” (page 23)
• “Configuring modular ASM instance package” (page 34)
Configuring legacy Oracle database package without ASM
To create a legacy Oracle database instance toolkit package:
1. Create a database package directory under $SGCONF/<package dir>. For example,
# mkdir $SGCONF/oracle_legacy
2. Copy the toolkit scripts from $SGROOT/oracletoolkit to the directory created in step 1.
3. cd $SGCONF/oracle_legacy
4. Edit the toolkit configuration file, haoracle.conf Table 2 (page 11) describes the attributes
that you can edit.
Table 2 Lists the attributes that you can edit
