Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Need Help with Installation of Oracle 8i Enterprise Ed
Here are the steps. The Oracle documentation is quite good for NT and a lot of the heavy lifting is taken care of by the installation wizards
Van
Oracle Server 8.1.5
1. I made a directory on the N drive N:\Oracle\Ora815, then put in the
Oracle Enterprise Server release
CD-ROM. When prompted for an Oracle Home Name I used Orant815 and for a
path I used
N:\Oracle\Ora815. DO NOT use an Oracle home of "Orant" - this is reserved
for Designer/Developer.
2. When prompted for a product to install I chose Oracle Enterprise
Edition 8.1.5
3. When asked I chose a custom install. I used the pre-selected defaults
but changed these things:
I added under Net8 Products - Oracle SNMP Agent 8.1.5.0.0
I added under Oracle Utilities - Oracle for Windows NT Performance Monitor
8.1.5.0.0
I added under Oracle Installation Products - Oracle Universal Installer
1.6.0.9.0
Some things that were not included were:
Oracle Web Publishing Assistant
Oracle SQLJ
Oracle Documentation
Oracle Administration Assistant for Windows NT
4. A message box appeared saying I had chosen to install advanced security
and which authentication
services did I want. I did not select any authentication service.
5. I said yes when asked if I wanted to create a new (sample) database.
6. I was then asked for a global database name and SID. For the name I
used DBAV.WORLD and for
the SID I used DBAV.
7. I chose not to install Legato storage manager (for now).
8. For protocols I chose to install TCP/IP, SPX and Named Pipes. I left
out LU6.2
9. This install session is logged to
C:\Program Files \ Oracle \ Inventory \ logs \ installActions.log
10. Next I was placed into the Net8 Configuration assistant. For the
listener name I chose "LISTENER" To
start I chose just the TCP protocol. I also chose to use just Net8 clients
(not IIOP for now - the interorb
protocol that is used when clients are using the listener to access the
database Java option. I may have to
come back and add this). I also chose port 1521 for the listener. And I
chose to do just a single listener.
11. I chose not to configure naming methods for this server. One of the
reasons to configure naming
methods is if the server will need to connect back to itself. I may have to
come back and configure naming methods in the future. (Naming methods are
used by Net8 to resolve a net service name to an address when attempting to
connect a client to a server. They serve the same function that DNS servers
do in making telnet or browser connections.)
12. After Net8 completed successfully I was thrown into the database
configuration assistant where I chose
to do a custom install. Here are some of my choices.
Type of database: hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 15
Database mode: dedicated server mode
Options to configure: all
Global Database Name: DBAV.WORLD
SID: DBAV
Init file: N:\Oracle\admin\DBAV\pfile\InitDbav.ora
Internal Password: oracle (all in lower case, if it ever matters)
Control Files: N:\Oracle\oradata\DBAV\CtlDbav1.ctl
P:\Oracle\oradata\DBAV\CtlDbav2.ctl
Maximum Data Files: 254
Maximum Log Files: 32
Maximum Log Members: 3
Data files: In general I used the defaults but made pctincrease 0,
maxextents
249 where possible and used the P drive for file copies. I made all the
initial and next sizes powers of two where possible.
Shared Pool Size (bytes): 53M
Block Buffers: 5000
Log Buffer Size (bytes): 32768
Processes: 150
Block Size (bytes): 8192
Trace File for User Files: N:\Oracle\admin\DBAV\udump
Trace File for Background Files: N:\Oracle\admin\DBAV\bdump
13. After making my choices the database creation assistant attempted to
create a database. During the
attempt to install Oracle JServer I got an ORA-00604 error. I said to
ignore the error and to proceed. Three more errors followed which I also
ignored.
The creation assistant finished with the usual passwords SYS -
change_on_install
System - manager
Internal password - oracle
and names global database name - DBAV.WORLD
database system identifier (SID) - DBAV
14. De-installation instructions are in the document in Programs /
Oracle-Orant815 / Release Notes
After installing the 8.1.5 products and creating a sample database, I performed the general post-installation actions on the database (see Installing - 8.1.5 General Post-Installation Steps in this book).
