In this article we will cover installation and configuration of Oracle DB 11.2.0.4 Installation in Oracle Linux 7.2, along with some Oracle post installation instructions.

1.Below is the location of DB present in my testing environment
   /home/oracle/OID/DB
   Inside DB go to database folder and click on ./runinstaller

2. Our Installer has been launched here. 

    For every steps we need to move forward by

    Clicking Next or OK.. I’m going to skip this step as 

    I don’t want security updates.

    Un-check the check box and mark the checkbox that say “Wish to receive

    security updates via My Oracle Support“.

3. Click on Next, you will get a error saying that you’ve not

    provided and email address click Yes to continue

    software updates Click next to continue

5. Next, choose the type of installation, I’m choosing the first option to

   Create and configure a database.

6. I’m going to choose Server Class here. If we need to install in any

   Desktop machines we can choose the above Option as Desktop Class.

  

7. We are going to setup only single instance database installation here.

    So, select the first option

8. Choose the Advance install option to get more option while

     going through Installation steps.

9. By Default Language will be chooses as English.

    If you need to change according to your language,

     choose from the below list

10. Time to choose which edition of database installation we looking for.

      For large scale Productions we can use Enterprise 

     or if we need standard edition

     or we can choose the options as mentioned there.

     We need more than 6.5 GB space for Enterprise installation because

     database Population will grow soon/increase.

11. Enter the Oracle base installation location,

      here all installed configurations files will be stored.

     Here you need to define the location of oracle installation path,

     as we created the location in step #12 in the first part of this article.

12. For the first time installation, every Inventory files will be created

      under ‘/u01/app/oralnventory‘ directory.

      We have created the group oracle for installation.

      So now the oracle group has permission to access Inventory Directory.

      Let us choose the Oracle as the Group for Operating system group.

13. Select the type of database, you want to create.

       Since, we are using for General purpose, so choosing general from

       the below options and click Next.

14. Specify the Global Database name for uniquely identified and

     un-check the Create as Container database,

     as here we are not going to create multiple databases.

 15. In my installation, I have assigned 4GB of Memory to my virtual machine,

      but this is not enough for Oracle. Here we need to Enable allocate memory

      automatically for the use of system global Area.

     Check the box that says Enable Automatic Memory Management and

     keep the default allocate memory.

     If we need some sample schema’s we can check and continue for installation.

     In Character set select Use Unicode(AL32UTF8) and click on Next

16. We need to choose the location to store the database storage.

       Here I’m going to assign ‘/u01/app/oracle/oradata‘  location to

       save the databases and Click Next to continue to installer steps.

17. If we have to Enable recovery options, then we have to

      check the Enable Recovery.

      In real environment these options are Compulsory to setup.

      Here to enable this option we need to add separate group and we need to

     define one of the file system location rather than default location 

     where our database save.

18. We need to define the password for starter database which

      all pre-loaded while the installations.

      Password must contain alphanumeric, upper_case and lower_case.

19. We need to provide system privileges to create database for that

      we need to choose the oracle group. Choose oracle for every options.

20. At last we can review every settings before database population.

      If we need any changes we can edit the settings.

21. Installation started to Preparation and copying files.

      This will take long time to complete according to our Hardware Resource.

       user as shown in the below picture.

23. That’s it! We’ve successfully completed Database Configuration,

      now click Next to continue installation process.

24. Finally Oracle Database installation was successfully completed.

      Click on Close to quit the Oracle Installer

25. After restarting machine, verify that the listener is

      up and running using ‘lsnrctl status‘ command

 26. Next login into Oracle database as a Operating system user using

        sysdba and start-up the database

       In my case already DB is up and running .

27. If listener does not start, you need to replace the domain name

        with local IP address 127.0.0.1 in below file.
