Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: The kernel parameters do not meet the minimum requirements (see above).
Recommendation: Perform operating system specific instructions to update the kernel parameters.
Solution:
——–
/etc/sysctl.conf should read (last four parameters different):
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
fs.file-max = 65536
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
net.core.rmem_default = 262144
net.core.rmem_max = 262144
net.core.wmem_default = 262144
net.core.wmem_max = 262144
Error Encountered:

Checking available swap space requirements …
Expected result: 2274MB
Actual Result: 1983MB
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: The system does not have the required swap space.
Recommendation: Make more swap space available to perform the install.
Solution:
——–
Create a new swap partition.
fdisk /dev/hdb
Delete old partition, create a new /dev/hdb1 and /dev/hdb2, with /dev/hdb2 at least 2275MB
Edit /etc/fstab and add new swap device
mount -a
swapon -a
Set environment variables for ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME and SID before starting dbca
SID should be in lowercase e.g. orcl
Set Global Database Identifier same as SID i.e. orcl
After installing, run lab_02_05.sh script to create listener. Or create it manually.
Configure a TNS Listener using netca
Configure orcl entry in tnsnames.ora using netca >
Start dbconsole using emctl start dbconsole: gave error about
Timezone mismatch: The agentTZRegion value (GMT) in
/u1/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/enterprise.support.com_orcl/sysman/config/emd.properties
does not match the current environment TZ setting().
The dbconsole cannot run with this mismatch.
If GMT is the correct timezone, set your timezone environment variable to GMT and repeat the ’emctl start dbconsole’ operation.
If GMT is not the correct timezone, make sure that the timezone in your environment is correct, and then run the following command in your local Oracle Home: ’emctl resetTZ agent’
The output of this command will include detailed instructions to follow, to correct the mismatch.
[oracle@enterprise admin]$ emctl resetTZ agent

connect to the database served by this DBConsole as user ‘sys’, and execute:

—————–
Unable to connect using service (orcl) as in sqlplus system/oracle@orcl
Solution:
——–
Added the following lines to the listener.ora file:
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u1/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/)
(SID_NAME = orcl)
)
The listener.ora file now reads:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u1/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
)
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = orcl)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u1/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/)
(SID_NAME = orcl)
)
)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = enterprise.support.com)(PORT = 1521))
)
)
