How to install Pre-requisites RPM for EBS 12.2 on OEL 7/RHEL 7
In this post, I am going to share how to install pre-requisites RPM related to EBS R12.2 through
Oracle public yum repository. It is recommended that this x86_64 Pre-Install RPM be installed on top of a 'minimal' installation of Oracle Linux to provide just the necessary packages to install and run Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.
RPM provides all required E-Business Suite packages for both the application and database tiers.
This Pre-Install RPM helps to reduce the preparation time of an environment prior to installing, upgrading or cloning an E-Business Suite R12 instance by performing the following tasks:
- Downloading and installing all software package versions and dependencies required for installing E-Business Suite R12 (12.1, 12.2).
- Creating the users oracle and applmgr for use as owners of the database and application tiers respectively, while setting hard and soft shell resource limits.
- Updating kernel parameters in /etc/sysctl.conf to recommended values.
- Sets DNS resolver parameters in /etc/resolv.conf to the minimum recommended values.
- Sets 'numa=off' in the kernel in the kernel command line.
- Disables 'Transparent Huge Pages (THP)' if enabled.
Steps:
1) As root user :
# cd /etc/yum.repos.d
Run below command, it will create the repository file for preinstall RPM. If there is already a repo file please rename it and download the latest one.
wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol7.repo
2) Using a text editor, change the field ‘enabled=0’ to ‘enabled=1’ for the repositories corresponding to the machine’s operating system while also enabling the ‘addons’ channel. Here’s an example of a repo file’s entries:
[ol7_latest]
name=Oracle Linux $releasever Latest ($basearch)
baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/ol7/latest/$basearch/
gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-ol7
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
[ol7_addons]
name=Oracle Linux $releasever Add ons ($basearch)
baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/ol7/addons/$basearch/
gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-ol7
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
If you are using RHEL/Centos use below to download the GPG key for RPM.
3) Now install the RPM's using below command
yum install oracle-ebs-server-R12-preinstall.x86_64 -y
4) Install openmotif (Important)
yum install https://oss.oracle.com/projects/compat-oracle/dist/files/Enterprise_Linux/openmotif21-2.1.30-11.el7.i686.rpm
or from addons
