Part 1: Install Oracle Grid infrastructure standalone & Oracle Database 11gR2

This article describes the installation steps of oracle grid infrastructure and Oracle database on Oracle Linux 6u5 with Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel using the Oracle ASMLib.

After the creation of the Oracle ASM disks in my last article, it is time to install Oracle Grid infrastructure and Oracle database.

Part 0: Creation of ASM disks on Oracle Linux using ASMLib

Part 2: Upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure & Database from 11gR2 to 12C

1. Verification of ASM disks:

I have been create 4 ASM disks, as we created on my first article. Then, creation of two disks for the disk group DATA and also two disks for the disk group FRA.

After the creation of the ASM disks, we can check:

# /etc/init.d/oracleasm scandisks
# /etc/init.d/oracleasm listdisks
DATA1
DATA2
FRA1
FRA2

2. Pre-Configuration:

Step 1: Installation of the needed packages by Oracle grid and database:

As we mention on my first article “Setting up Oracle ASM disks”.

Step 2: Creation of the dedicated directory.

# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle
# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app
# chmod -R 775 /u01/app

 Step 3: Preparation of the Oracle binary files:

I have the three binary files:

– p13390677_112040_Linux-x86-64_1of7.zip

– p13390677_112040_Linux-x86-64_2of7.zip

– p13390677_112040_Linux-x86-64_3of7.zip
