This paper (HOWTO) describes step-by-step installation of Oracle 11g R1
database software on SuSE Linux Enteprise Server (SLES) 10 and OpenSuSE
10.3 (currently for x86_64. x86 version will come soon).
Note that OpenSUSE distribution is not certified by Oracle Corporation.
This article does not cover database creation process, and ASM Instance creation process.
This paper covers following steps:
Login as root and create te user oracle which belongs to dba group.
2. Setting System parameters
Edit the /etc/sysctl.conf and add following lines:
Edit the /etc/pam.d/login file and add following line:
Edit the /etc/security/limits.conf file and add following lines:
3. Creating oracle directories
4. Setting Oracle Enviroment
Edit the /home/oracle/.bash_profile file and add following lines:
Use this settings for 64bit (x86_64) architecture.
Save the .bash_profile and execute following commands for load new enviroment:
5. For OpenSuSE only!:Backup original /etc/SuSE-release and change the distribution and release in original file. Change content as following:
Some additional packages are required for succesful instalation of Oracle software. To check wheter required packages are installed on your operating system use following command:
Required packages for SLES 10 64bit (x86_64) architecture:
Required packages for OpenSuSE 64bit (x86_64) architecture:
(For OpenSuSE only!:) If some package is not installed then install it from installation media or download it from following locations:
OpenSUSE 10.3 x86_64 repository
Note: (For OpenSuSE only!:) Some packages could be missing on OpenSuSE installation media (DVD) (Don't ask me why) but you can find them in official repository.
If you need install packages for SLES 10, use SuSE SLES 10 installation CDs/DVD.
Install the required packages using the rpm command:
For OpenSuSE 10.3 only!: Create symlinks for compilers (as root):
2. Download the Oracle 11g release 1 (11.1.0.6.0) software from Oracle website.
Extract the files using following command:
3. Start the Oracle software installation process.
Now the system is prepared for Oracle software installation. To start the installation process execute the following commands:
Note: For OpenSuSE 10.3 only!: If OUI failed during "Checking operating system package requirements" phase and you are verified that all important packages (listed in step #1) are installed then use check box to change status to "User verified" (as shown on picture below).
Login as root and modify /etc/oratab file and change last character to Y for apropriate database.
As root user create new file "oracle" (init script for startup and shutdown the database) in /etc/init.d/ directory with following content:
Execute (as root) following commands (First script change the permissions, second script is configuring execution for specific runlevels):
2. (Optional) Auto Startup and Shutdown of Enterprise Manager Database Control
As root user create new file "oraemctl" (init script for startup and shutdown EM DB Console) in /etc/init.d/ directory with following content:
Execute (as root) following commands (First script change the permissions, second script is configuring execution for specific runlevels):
3. (Optional) You may consider to use rlwrap for comfortable work with sqlplus and adrci utility. RPM package for SUSE compatible (x86_64) distribution you can download here.
4. (Optional) Restore /etc/SuSE-release from backup file (see step #5 in Pre-Installation Tasks)
Solution: Execute "export DISPLAY=:0.0" when you perform installation on local machine or "export DISPLAY=:0.0 when you perform installation on remote machine connected over SSH". Don't forget to execute "xhost +" command on client machine.

This article does not cover database creation process, and ASM Instance creation process.
This paper covers following steps:
Pre-Instalation Tasks
1. Create oracle User AccountLogin as root and create te user oracle which belongs to dba group.
su -
# groupadd dba
# useradd -g dba oracle
# mkdir /home/oracle
# chown oracle:dba /home/oracle
# groupadd dba
# useradd -g dba oracle
# mkdir /home/oracle
# chown oracle:dba /home/oracle
2. Setting System parameters
Edit the /etc/sysctl.conf and add following lines:
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
fs.file-max = 6553600
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
net.core.rmem_default = 4194304
net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 262144
Note: You need to execute "sysctl -p" command to apply above settings.
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128

net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 262144
Edit the /etc/pam.d/login file and add following line:
session required pam_limits.so
Edit the /etc/security/limits.conf file and add following lines:
oracle soft nproc 2047
oracle hard nproc 16384
oracle soft nofile 1024
oracle hard nofile 65536
