Oracle Database 19c RPM Installation On Oracle Linux 7


Oracle Database 19c can now be installed on Linux OS using an RPM.
This post describes the steps for RPM based installation of Oracle Database 19c 64-bit on OEL 7 64-bit.


Step 1. Prerequisite for Installation: Two most important things for rpm based installation is
(1) You should have root privileges.
(2) Internet enable access from Server.
(3) Make sure SELINUX configuration set to PERMISSIVE.
(4) The /etc/hosts file must contain a fully qualified server/hostname.
(5) Set the correct hostname in the /etc/hostname file

[root@test-machine01 ~]# cat /etc/oracle-release
Oracle Linux Server release 7.7
[root@test-machine01 ~]#

[root@test-machine01 ~]# uname -a
Linux test-machine01  4.14.35-1902.3.2.el7uek.x86_64 #2 SMP Tue Jul 30 03:59:02 GMT 2019 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@test-machine01 ~]#

[root@test-machine01 ~]# cat /etc/selinux/config |grep SELINUX
# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:
SELINUX=permissive
# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of three values:
SELINUXTYPE=targeted
[root@test-machine01 ~]#

[root@test-machine01 ~]# cat /etc/hosts
127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
192.168.95.105  test-machine01.domain-name.local  test-machine01
[root@test-machine01 ~]#

[root@test-machine01 ~]# cat /etc/hostname
test-machine01.domain-name.local
[root@test-machine01 ~]#


Step 2. Install Oracle Database 19c Preinstallation RPM: Below yum system command oracle-database-preinstall-19c will take care of all pre-steps require to install Oracle Database 19c from installing required RPMs to creating user and groupids.

[root@test-machine01 ~]# yum install -y oracle-database-preinstall-19c

Step 3. Download Oracle 19c DB RPM: Access URL: https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/oracle19c-linux-downloads.html and download Oracle Database 19c (19.3) for Linux x86-64 (RPM), refer to below image. Once the download is finished transfer Oracle DB rpm file to the database server.


Step 4. Install the database software: Install the database software using the yum localinstall command. Once the command is finished. The ORACLE_HOME for the software installation is “/opt/oracle/product/19c/dbhome_1“.

Step 5: Creating and Configuring an Oracle Database: In addition to the software installation, the RPM creates a script that allows you to create a demo database called “ORCLCDB“, with a pluggable database (PDB) called “ORCLPDB1“.
