Installation Notes
11g Release 1 (11.1.1.5.0)
May 2011
These installation notes provide information about manually installing an instance of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition (single-node) or Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC). It contains the following sections:
For information about provisioning Oracle Fusion Applications, see the Oracle Fusion Applications Installation Guide.
Though Oracle Fusion Applications provisioning automates the installation and configuration of a transaction database for use with Oracle Fusion Applications environments, you can manually install an instance of Oracle Database (single-node) or Oracle Real Application Clusters to meet your specific requirements. To manually install and configure the transaction database, perform the following tasks.
Install Oracle Database or Oracle RAC.
Apply database patches.
If installing an instance of Oracle Database, configure the database listener.
Create transaction database instances using Oracle Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA).
Start the database.
Complete any post-installation tasks that are required by the database patches.
The first step in creating a custom transaction database instance is to install the database software.
Install Oracle Database interactively instead of using the Provisioning Wizard. See the Oracle 11g Release 2 Documentation Library for information about how to install Oracle Database interactively.
When performing the installation, ensure that the following components are enabled:
Oracle Partitioning (default)
Oracle OLAP (default)
Oracle Label Security (select for runtime requirements)
Oracle Data Mining RDBMS Files (default)
Oracle Real Application Testing (default)
If these components are not enabled, application functionality will not work.When performing the installation, choose the option to perform a software-only installation. You will manually create the database instance and configure the database as described in the following sections.
For complete information about manually installing and configuring Oracle RAC, refer to the Oracle 11g Release 2 Documentation Library.
Oracle Fusion Applications requires several database patches. When you install a database manually, you must apply these patches to your database before you run the Oracle Fusion Applications Repository Creation Utility (Applications RCU). With Oracle Database, you must also apply the patches before configuring the database listener.
Before you apply the database patches, you must ensure that all database instances are stopped and that your file system is ready for patching.
For information about applying patches to an Oracle RAC database instance, see the Oracle Database 2 Day + Real Application Clusters Guide 11g Release 2 Guide.
You use OPatch to apply patches to Oracle Database. For information about OPatch, see the Oracle Universal Installer and OPatch User's Guide.
To apply the database patches to Oracle Database:
Navigate to the database ORACLE_HOME/OPatch directory.
Invoke the OPatch command using the following parameters:
./opatch napply REPOSITORY_LOCATION/installers/database/patch -skip_duplicates -skip_subset
The REPOSITORY_LOCATION is the path to the directory that was created when the applications media pack was unzipped.
If you are using Oracle Database, you must configure the database listener as described in the Oracle 11g Release 2 Documentation Library. After you complete the configuration, start the database listener.
You can use Oracle Database Configuration Assistant (DBCA) to create the transaction database from a database template that is shipped with Oracle Fusion Applications software. This template contains the database structure and features, but is not seeded. It is generic for use across platforms.
Instructions on database installation and configuration can be found in the Oracle 11g Release 2 Documentation Library.
If you choose to not use the database template, you must ensure that your database configuration parameters are aligned with the values specified in the "Minimum Configuration Parameters for Oracle Database" section in the Oracle Fusion Applications Installation Guide.
You use DBCA to manually create an an instance of Oracle Database from the non-seeded database template that is shipped with Oracle Fusion Applications software.
To create a single-node Oracle Database instance:
Edit the non-seeded database template at PROV_FRMWK_HOME/provisioning/provisioning/template/dbca/empty_database_11.2.dbt and set the process initialization parameter to 2500 as shown in the following text:
<initParam name="processes" value="2500"/>
Navigate to the database ORACLE_HOME/bin directory and execute the following command:
dbca -silent -createDatabase \ -templateName PROV_FRMWK_HOME/provisioning/provisioning/template/dbca/empty_database_11.2.dbt \ -gdbName "ORACLE_SID" \ -sid "ORACLE_SID" \ -sysPassword "SYS_PASSWORD" \ -systemPassword "SYSTEM_PASSWORD" \ -emConfiguration "NONE" \ -characterSet "AL32UTF8" - \ -nationalCharacterSet "AL16UTF16" \ -variables ORACLE_BASE=ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME=ORACLE_HOME \ -initParams audit_trail=NONE \ -datafileDestination DATAFILE_LOC
Replace the following variables with the appropriate values:
PROV_FRMWK_HOME - Home of Fusion Applications Provisioning framework
ORACLE_SID - Global database name of the Oracle Fusion Applications database
SYS_PASSWORD - Sys password
SYSTEM_PASSWORD - System user password
ORACLE_BASE - Top level directory for the database installation.
ORACLE_HOME - Oracle home of the database installation
DATAFILE_LOC - Physical location of the files that store the data of all logical structures in the database
You use DBCA to manually create a database instance for each Oracle RAC node using the non-seeded database template that is shipped with Oracle Fusion Applications software.
To create an Oracle RAC database instance:
Edit the non-seeded database template at PROV_FRMWK_HOME/provisioning/provisioning/template/dbca/empty_database_11.2.dbt and set the process initialization parameter to 2500 as shown in the following text:
<initParam name="processes" value="2500"/>
For each RAC node, navigate to the database ORACLE_HOME/bin directory of the RAC node and execute the following command:
dbca -silent -createDatabase \ -templateName PROV_FRMWK_HOME/provisioning/provisioning/template/dbca/empty_database_11.2.dbt \ -gdbName "ORACLE_SID" \ -sid "ORACLE_SID" \ -sysPassword "SYS_PASSWORD" \ -systemPassword "SYSTEM_PASSWORD" \ -emConfiguration "NONE" \ -characterSet "AL32UTF8" - \ -nationalCharacterSet "AL16UTF16" \ -variables ORACLE_BASE=ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME=ORACLE_HOME \ -initParams audit_trail=NONE \ -datafileDestination DATAFILE_LOC \ -nodeinfo node1,node2
Replace the following variables with the appropriate values:
PROV_FRMWK_HOME - Home of Fusion Applications Provisioning framework
ORACLE_SID - Global database name of the Oracle Fusion Applications database
SYS_PASSWORD - Sys password
SYSTEM_PASSWORD - System user password
ORACLE_BASE - Top level directory for the database installation.
ORACLE_HOME - Oracle home of the database installation
DATAFILE_LOC - Physical location of the files that store the data of all logical structures in the database
Refer to the Oracle 11g Release 2 Documentation Library for instructions on how to start the database.
After you have applied the patches and started the database, check the release notes for each patch to determine whether you need to perform post-installation tasks.
