Surachart Opun's Blog: Just Test - Install Oracle GI (standalone server) on OL6

I was just curious Oracle GI 11.2.0.3 (10404530) with Oracle Linux 6 (maybe RHEL6). I had to fix something about Upstart (Oracle GI 11.2.0.2 on OL6). I posted "Oracle Restart - Installation and... SILENT Mode" and "Install Grid Infra - clscfg.bin: error while loading shared libraries: libcap.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory". They depends on Oracle Linux 6 (RHEL6) and Oracle GI 11.2.0.2. So, this post I just tested (Oracle GI 11.2.0.3 works on OL6). NO Fixed anything... by manual.

[oracle@mytest ~]$ cat /etc/oracle-release
Oracle Linux Server release 6.1
[oracle@mytest ~]$ uname -r
2.6.32-100.34.1.el6uek.i686

I use Oracle Linux 6.1, then install Grid Infrastructure for stand alone server (11.2.0.3) !!!
- Download and install Oracle GI for stand alone server

You can find the log of this install session at:
/u01/app/oraInventory/logs/installActions2011-09-26_01-25-52PM.log

The installation of Oracle Grid Infrastructure was successful.
Please check '/u01/app/oraInventory/logs/silentInstall2011-09-26_01-25-52PM.log' for more details.

As a root user, execute the following script(s):
1. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/root.sh

As install user, execute the following script to complete the configuration.
1. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/grid/cfgtoollogs/configToolAllCommands

Note:
1. This script must be run on the same system from where installer was run.
2. This script needs a small password properties file for configuration assistants that require passwords (refer to install guide documentation).

Successfully Setup Software.

- Run root.sh (just curious about Upstart, so check before)
