Note:
Oracle recommends that you install your Linux operating system
with the default software packages (RPMs), unless you
specifically intend to perform a minimal installation, and follow
the directions for performing such an installation to ensure that
you have all required packages for Oracle software.
Oracle recommends that you do not customize RPMs during a
default operating system installation. A default installation
includes most required packages, and helps you to limit manual
checks of package dependencies.
If you did not perform a default Linux installation, you intend to
use LDAP, and you want to use the scripts
odisrvreg
,
oidca
, or
schemasync
, then install the Korn shell RPM for your Linux
distribution.
You must install the packages (or later versions) listed in the
following table. Also, ensure that the list of RPMs and all the
prerequisites for these RPMs are installed.
If you are using Oracle Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel, then all
required kernel packages are installed as part of the Oracle
Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel installation.
For Orace Linux 6 the Oracle Validated RPM has been replaced by
the Oracle RDBMS Server 11gR2 Pre-install RPM. See the
"Completing a Minimal Linux Installation" section in Oracle
Database Installation Guide.
Note: Starting with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2), all the
32-bit packages, except for
gcc-32bit-4.3
, listed in the following
table are no longer required for installing a database on Linux x86-64.
Only the 64-bit packages are required.
However, for any Oracle Database 11g release before 11.2.0.2, both the
32-bit and 64-bit packages listed in the following table are required.
