How to Install Oracle Database 19c on Linux

We supposed that you already have installed Oracle Linux 8, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 or its derivatives like AlmaLinux for your database server.

There’re 5 major sections of installing an Oracle database 19c on Linux.

Please note that, if you want your database server to have a higher state of 19c directly, say 19.18, you may also consider to patch oracle home before creating the database, it’s faster and less risky.

There’s a tutorial that directly install Oracle database 19.18 on a new Linux server, you may have a look.

Prepare Database Server

To prepare a database server, we take the following steps.

Required Packages

A newly created Linux server might not have sufficient packages to run Oracle products, especially you chose the minimal install for it. Therefore, we have to install required packages for Oracle database 19c.

Network & Security

Check Hostname Resolution

To prevent DBT-06103 The Port 5500 is Already in Use, we should make sure that the hostname resolution is working on this server.

[root@test ~]# vi /etc/hosts
.
192.168.1.11 test test.example.com

Disable Firewall

[root@test ~]# systemctl stop firewalld
[root@test ~]# systemctl disable firewalld
Removed /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/firewalld.service.
Removed /etc/systemd/system/dbus-org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.service.

If you couldn’t or wouldn’t disable firewall, then you may also open port 1521 on Linux for your listener.

Disable SELinux

Kernel Parameters

If required packages were installed through Oracle Database 19c Pre-installation RPM, you may skip this step. Otherwise, you have to change kernel parameters by yourself.

Persist Kernel Parameter

We put new kernel values in a sysctl configuration file.

[root@test ~]# vi /etc/sysctl.d/97-oracle-database-sysctl.conf
fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.file-max = 6815744
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 4294967295
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
net.core.rmem_default = 262144
net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 1048576

Reload Kernel Parameter

We should make it read values from all system directories.

[root@test ~]# sysctl —system
* Applying /usr/lib/sysctl.d/10-default-yama-scope.conf .
kernel.yama.ptrace_scope = 0
* Applying /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-coredump.conf .
kernel.core_pattern = |/usr/lib/systemd/systemd-coredump %P %u %g %s %t %c %h %e
kernel.core_pipe_limit = 16
* Applying /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-default.conf .
kernel.sysrq = 16
kernel.core_uses_pid = 1
kernel.kptr_restrict = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter = 1
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route = 0
net.ipv4.conf.all.promote_secondaries = 1
net.core.default_qdisc = fq_codel
fs.protected_hardlinks = 1
fs.protected_symlinks = 1
* Applying /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-libkcapi-optmem_max.conf .
net.core.optmem_max = 81920
* Applying /usr/lib/sysctl.d/50-pid-max.conf .
kernel.pid_max = 4194304
* Applying /etc/sysctl.d/97-oracle-database-sysctl.conf .
fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
fs.file-max = 6815744
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 4294967295
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
net.core.rmem_default = 262144
net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 1048576
* Applying /etc/sysctl.d/99-sysctl.conf .
* Applying /etc/sysctl.conf .

Group, User and Directories

At least, we should create 2 groups and 1 user for installing a single-instance database.

[root@test ~]# groupadd -g 54321 oinstall
[root@test ~]# groupadd -g 54322 dba
[root@test ~]# groupadd -g 54323 oper
[root@test ~]# useradd -u 54321 -g oinstall -G dba,oper oracle
[root@test ~]# id oracle
uid=54321(oracle) gid=54321(oinstall) groups=54321(oinstall),54322(dba),54323(oper)
[root@test ~]# passwd oracle
Changing password for user oracle.
New password:
Retype new password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully.

Then we create necessary directories for user oracle .

[root@test ~]# mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1
[root@test ~]# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
[root@test ~]# chmod -R 775 /u01

Resource management should also be configured for the user.

[root@test ~]# vi /etc/security/limits.conf
.
oracle soft nofile 1024
oracle hard nofile 65536
oracle soft nproc 2047
oracle hard nproc 16384
oracle soft stack 10240
oracle hard stack 32768
oracle soft memlock unlimited
oracle hard memlock unlimited
[root@test ~]# sysctl -p

User Profile

To prepare the environment of the software owner, we modify its profile ( ~/.bash_profile ).

[root@test ~]# su — oracle
[oracle@test ~]$ vi ~/.bash_profile
.
# User specific environment and startup programs
umask 022
ORACLE_SID=ORCLCDB
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
TMP=/tmp
TMPDIR=/tmp
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch
export ORACLE_SID ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME LD_LIBRARY_PATH TMP TMPDIR PATH

Unzip Sources

Supposed that you have uploaded the software to the database server, we may unzip the software to $ORACLE_HOME by the owner oracle .

Please login the database server as oracle directly through ssh -X or any other tools with X window enabled by default.

[oracle@test ~]$ ll /sources/
total 2987996
-rwxr-xr-x. 1 oracle oinstall 3059705302 Feb 9 18:48 LINUX.X64_193000_db_home.zip
drwxr-xr-x. 2 oracle oinstall 105 Feb 9 18:52 patches
[oracle@test ~]$ unzip -q /sources/LINUX.X64_193000_db_home.zip -d $ORACLE_HOME

Distribution ID

In order to prevent INS-08101 Unexpected Error, we should modify the following environment variable CV_ASSUME_DISTID .

[oracle@test ~]$ vi $ORACLE_HOME/cv/admin/cvu_config
.
CV_ASSUME_DISTID= OEL8

To know if the server meets the requirements of Oracle product or not, we may perform a prerequisite check before installation.

Install Oracle Software 19c

Here we initiate runInstaller GUI to install it. Alternatively, you may install Oracle software 19c in silent mode.

[oracle@test ~]$ cd $ORACLE_HOME
[oracle@test dbhome_1]$ ./runInstaller
Launching Oracle Database Setup Wizard.

Install Oracle Software Only 19c

The response file for this session can be found at:
/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1/install/response/db_2023-02-13_12-06-51PM.rsp

You can find the log of this install session at:
/tmp/InstallActions2023-02-13_12-06-51PM/installActions2023-02-13_12-06-51PM.log
Moved the install session logs to:
/u01/app/oraInventory/logs/InstallActions2023-02-13_12-06-51PM

Configure Listener

The step is optional, because you can create a new listener in Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA).

To configure a new listener, we issue netca command (Net Configuration Assistant).

[oracle@test dbhome_1]$ netca

Listener Configuration by NETCA

Oracle Net Services Configuration:
Configuring Listener:LISTENER
Listener configuration complete.
Oracle Net Listener Startup:
Running Listener Control:
/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1/bin/lsnrctl start LISTENER
Listener Control complete.
Listener started successfully.
Oracle Net Services configuration successful. The exit code is 0

To trace back the creation process, you may check the log of NETCA.

Create Database 19c

To create a new database, we issue dbca command (Database Configuration Assistant).

Create Database 19c by DBCA

To trace back the process, you may check the log of DBCA.

The TNSNAME of CDB will be automatically added to tnsnames.ora file after DBCA, but not for PDB. For adding more TNSNAME, you may edit the file or add net service names through NETCA, if you like GUI style.

Post Installation

We have to make sure that everything is running well.

Check Listener

Modify oratab

[oracle@test dbhome_1]$ vi /etc/oratab
.
ORCLCDB:/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1: Y

We have installed a single-instance database 19c. To automatically start the database after system reboot, we have scripts to do it.
