How to install Pre-requisites RPM for EBS 12.2 on OEL 7/RHEL 7

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

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database Validating the Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) wallet password is crucial, especially when ensuring that the password is correct without using the OPEN or CLOSE commands in the database. This blog post explains a straightforward method to validate the TDE password using the mkstore utility. Steps to Validate TDE Wallet Password Follow these steps to validate the TDE wallet password: Step 1: Copy the Keystore/Wallet File Navigate to your existing TDE wallet directory. Copy only the ewallet.p12 file to a new directory. If a cwallet.sso file exists, do not copy it . The absence of cwallet.sso ensures that the wallet does not use auto-login, forcing the utility to prompt for the password. Step 2: Validate Using mkstore Use the mkstore utility to check the contents of the wallet file. The mkstore utility will prompt you for the TDE wallet password, allowing you to validate its correctness. Command Syntax To display the conten...
