Silent Installation of RAC 12c database

Sep 30, 2013

Nowadays everyone is installing #db12c in different variants, posting screenshots, talking about a better tool to run GUI through. However I could not find posts about silent installation of GI and RDBMS. Yes, installation without sleek graphical interfaces, just pure command line in terminal. Thinking about RAC Attack at OOW13 I decided to install a two-node RAC cluster on my laptop to see how it would work. Using Virtual Box, I created VM (named s1) for OEL 6.4 with 2Gb of RAM and performed a basic server installation setting 2 IP addresses (192.168.56.11, 172.16.100.11) for public and private networks with allocated 30Gb disk. 620 packages were installed, server rebooted and the login prompt came quick and short-spoken. Since there were additional packages required, I attached iso image for OEL 6.4 to VM and mounted it in command line [code]mount /dev/dvd /media[/code] It gave me packages available under /media/Packages which I installed straight away (based on requirements) [code]rpm -Uvh compat-libcap1-1.10-1.x86_64.rpm compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-69.el6.x86_64.rpm \ libstdc++-devel-4.4.7-3.el6.x86_64.rpm gcc-4.4.7-3.el6.x86_64.rpm glibc-devel-2.12-1.107.el6.x86_64.rpm \ glibc-headers-2.12-1.107.el6.x86_64.rpm cpp-4.4.7-3.el6.x86_64.rpm cloog-ppl-0.15.7-1.2.el6.x86_64.rpm \ kernel-headers-2.6.32-358.el6.x86_64.rpm ppl-0.10.2-11.el6.x86_64.rpm mpfr-2.4.1-6.el6.x86_64.rpm \ libaio-devel-0.3.107-10.el6.x86_64.rpm ksh-20100621-19.el6.x86_64.rpm gcc-c++-4.4.7-3.el6.x86_64.rpm[/code] Since it is not that important to have a DNS service running for my silent installation tests, I used one IP address for SCAN and put it to /etc/hosts file together with IP addresses for hosts of a two-node cluster [code]127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.56.11 s1.home s1 192.168.56.12 s2.home s2 192.168.56.15 s-scan.home s-scan 172.16.100.11 s1-priv.home s1-priv 172.16.100.12 s2-priv.home s2-priv 192.168.56.13 s1-vip.home s1-vip 192.168.56.14 s2-vip.home s2-vip[/code] Then I created groups and an Oracle account (I did not create groups for SYSDG, SYSKM and SYSBACKUP planning to use dba group) [code]groupadd oinstall groupadd dba groupadd asmdba groupadd asmadmin useradd -m -g oinstall -G asmdba,asmadmin,dba oracle passwd oracle[/code] and created a directory where software will be installed [code]mkdir /u01 chown oracle.oinstall /u01[/code] as well as disabled firewall and SE Linux [code]sed -i 's/SELINUX=enforcing/SELINUX=disabled/g' /etc/selinux/config /etc/init.d/iptables stop /etc/init.d/ip6tables stop chkconfig --level 2345 iptables off chkconfig --level 2345 ip6tables off[/code] I stopped VM and created 2 shared disks for ASM (2Gb and 5Gb) using steps described in RAC Attack 12c wiki in details. When VM was started, back up and partitions for disks were created, I added rules for persistent naming of ASM devices. Since I was using only two devices for ASM, RAC Attack Ninjas' script was changed to use sdb and sdc. [code]echo "options=-g" > /etc/scsi_id.config i=1 cmd="/sbin/scsi_id -g -u -d" for disk in sdb sdc ; do cat <<EOF >> /etc/udev/rules.d/99-oracle-asmdevices.rules KERNEL=="sd?1", BUS=="scsi", PROGRAM=="$cmd /dev/\$parent", \ RESULT=="`$cmd /dev/$disk`", NAME="asm-disk$i", OWNER="oracle", GROUP="dba", MODE="0660" EOF i=$(($i+1)) done /sbin/partprobe /dev/sdb1 /dev/sdc1 /sbin/udevadm test /block/sdb/sdb1 /sbin/udevadm test /block/sdc/sdc1 /sbin/udevadm control --reload-rules /sbin/start_udev[/code] It finished preparation of OS for further cloning to second VM and I simply powered off the machine in VBox. Thanks again to RAC Attack Ninjas for the instructions which made tests easier and provided certain steps to clone VM. I created new VM s2 without addition of any disks and set network interfaces and performed a clone of virtual disk from one Virtual Machine to a new one and attached cloned and disks for ASM to new VM. After startup of new VM s2, I changed the name of the host to s2.home and IP addresses to new ones using setup command which works in text mode, removed file for network rules and deleted UUID and HWADDR from adapter configuration files [code]rm -f /etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules sed -i -e '/HWADDR/d' -e '/UUID/d' /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth[0-2][/code] Now I was able to start 2 virtual machines together and copied GI and RDBMS software to the first node under /home/oracle/install and unzipped archives there. First of all, I executed ssh passwordless script to copy keys between nodes [code]cd /home/oracle/install/grid/sshsetup ./sshUserSetup.sh -user oracle -hosts "s1 s2" -advanced -confirm -noPromptPassphrase[/code] Then I executed verification utility to generate fixup scripts [code]cd /home/oracle/install/grid ./runcluvfy.sh stage -pre crsinst -fixupnoexec -n s1,s2[/code] The check produced the report at the end of the execution [code]ERROR: PRVE-0426 : The size of in-memory file system mounted as /dev/shm is "1004" megabytes which is less than the required size of "2048" megabytes on node "" PRVE-0426 : The size of in-memory file system mounted as /dev/shm is "1004" megabytes which is less than the required size of "2048" megabytes on node "" Check for /dev/shm mounted as temporary file system failed ****************************************************************************************** Following is the list of fixable prerequisites selected to fix in this session ****************************************************************************************** -------------- --------------- ---------------- Check failed.

To fix the parameters I executed the script on both nodes under root. It's worth mentioning that the process for generating fixup scripts has changed since 11g. Now they are placed in a fixup directory under CVU_12.1.0.1.0_oracle and are in XML format while previously there were 2 directories CVU*_fixup, CVU*_oracle in /tmp and the configuration file was in text format. Further execution of the check showed that the script worked and applied changes to the kernel [code]NOTE: No fixable verification failures to fix ...[/code] Based on my experience of silent installation and after several tests, I came up with the following parameters for the response file of Grid Infrastructure installation and put them to text file /tmp/gi.rsp on first node s1 [code]oracle.install.responseFileVersion=/oracle/install/rspfmt_crsinstall_response_schema_v12.1.0 SELECTED_LANGUAGES=en INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u01/app/oraInventory oracle.install.option=CRS_CONFIG ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/12.1.0/grid oracle.install.asm.OSDBA=asmdba oracle.install.asm.OSASM=asmadmin oracle.install.crs.config.gpnp.scanName=s-scan.home oracle.install.crs.config.gpnp.scanPort=1521 oracle.install.crs.config.gpnp.configureGNS=false oracle.install.crs.config.autoConfigureClusterNodeVIP=false oracle.install.crs.config.ClusterType=STANDARD oracle.install.crs.config.clusterName=s-cluster oracle.install.crs.config.clusterNodes=s1.home:s1-vip.home,s2.home:s2-vip.home oracle.install.crs.config.networkInterfaceList=eth0:192.168.56.0:1,eth1:172.16.100.0:2 oracle.install.crs.managementdb.configure=false oracle.install.crs.config.storageOption=LOCAL_ASM_STORAGE oracle.install.asm.SYSASMPassword=ASM111pwd# oracle.install.asm.diskGroup.name=CRS oracle.install.asm.diskGroup.redundancy=EXTERNAL oracle.install.asm.diskGroup.disks=/dev/asm-disk1 oracle.install.asm.diskGroup.diskDiscoveryString=/dev/asm* oracle.install.asm.monitorPassword=ASM222mon# oracle.installer.autoupdates.option=SKIP_UPDATES[/code] GI software was installed and it required the execution of several scripts to finish configuring the Grid Infrastructure [code][oracle@s1 grid]$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /tmp/gi.rsp -showProgress -ignorePrereq Starting Oracle Universal Installer...

To create another ASM disk group, I used syntax that mkdg could understand and mounted the disk group on second node as well [code]ASMCMD> mkdg '<dg name="data" redundancy="external"><dsk string = "/dev/asm-disk2" /> <a name="compatible.asm" value="12.1" /> </dg>' [oracle@s1 grid]$ srvctl status diskgroup -diskgroup data Disk Group data is running on s1 [oracle@s1 grid]$ srvctl start diskgroup -diskgroup data -n s2 [oracle@s1 grid]$ srvctl status diskgroup -diskgroup data Disk Group data is running on s2,s1[/code] After that, the only steps left were to install the RDBMS and create the database, so I proceeded with the installation of RDBMS creating response file /tmp/db.rsp with following contents (database software was uploaded to the server s1 and unzipped under /home/oracle/install/database) [code]oracle.install.responseFileVersion=/oracle/install/rspfmt_dbinstall_response_schema_v12.1.0 oracle.install.option=INSTALL_DB_SWONLY INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u01/app/oraInventory ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1 oracle.install.db.InstallEdition=EE oracle.install.db.DBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.BACKUPDBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.DGDBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.KMDBA_GROUP=dba oracle.install.db.CLUSTER_NODES=s1,s2 SECURITY_UPDATES_VIA_MYORACLESUPPORT=false DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=true oracle.installer.autoupdates.option=SKIP_UPDATES[/code] Silent installation was completed by execution of OUI in silent mode and I executed root.sh script (using the same change OUI_SILENT=false in rootmacro.sh to get output to the same screen) on both nodes successfully [code][oracle@s1 database]$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /tmp/db.rsp -showProgress -ignorePrereq Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
