RE: Help: Oracle on AIX 5.2

Check the installation under System Requirements->AIX and Installation Specific Issues->
Asynchronous I/O.

Some of these steps are done in the rootpre.sh script which you are supposed to run as root prior to beginning the installation process. There is an additional step which needs to be run under the smit utility to insure that the proper libraries are loaded each time the system reboots.

HTH,

Subject: Help: Oracle on AIX 5.2

Hi list

I'm running into the following problem:

Installed 9.2.0.1.0 on an RS/6000 p630 (Proc. model 7248), 64bit AIX 5.2 Patched to 9.2.0.4.0. I can't start any executable like sqlplus / lsnrctl. We haven't created any DBs yet, just the fresh install with an immediately applied patch set.

Here's what I get:

oracle_at_paris:/home/oracle>which sqlplus
/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2/bin/sqlplus
oracle_at_paris:/home/oracle>sqlplus
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program sqlplus because of the following errors:

        0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for /usr/lib/libc.a[aio_64.o] because:

        0509-136   Symbol kaio_rdwr64 (number 0) is not exported from
                   dependent module /unix.
        0509-136   Symbol listio64 (number 1) is not exported from
                   dependent module /unix.
        0509-136   Symbol acancel64 (number 2) is not exported from
                   dependent module /unix.
        0509-136   Symbol iosuspend64 (number 3) is not exported from
                   dependent module /unix.
        0509-136   Symbol aio_nwait (number 4) is not exported from
                   dependent module /unix.
        0509-150   Dependent module libc.a(aio_64.o) could not be loaded.
        0509-026 System error: Cannot run a file that does not have a valid
format.
        0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
                 'dump -Tv' command.

oracle_at_paris:/home/oracle>

Dump gives me the following output (e.g. for listio64):

oracle_at_paris:/home/oracle>dump -X64 -oTv /usr/lib/libc.a | grep listio64
[3] 0x00000000 undef IMP DS EXTref /unix
_posix_listio64
[11] 0x000000a8 .data EXP DS SECdef [noIMid]
_posix_lio_listio64
[1] 0x00000000 undef IMP DS EXTref /unix listio64
[8] 0x00000088 .data EXP DS SECdef [noIMid]
lio_listio64
oracle_at_paris:/home/oracle>

So, the symbol is actually being exported. What might be the problem? Does async i/o have to
be activated on the RS/6000?

PS: I'm totally new to AIX, so the question might be kind of dumb;).

Any ideas?

Stefan
