- Checking the Hardware Requirements

    # grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo      - determine the RAM size
    # uname -m                         - determine whether the system architecture 
    # grep SwapTotal /proc/meminfo     - determine the size of the configured swap space
    # free                             - determine the available RAM and swap space
    # df -h /dev/shm/                  - determine the amount of shared memory available
    # df -h /tmp                       - determine the amount of disk space available in /tmp
    # df -h                            - determine the amount of free disk space
    # df -k                            - display information about all mounted file systems

-Checking the Software Requirements

    # cat /proc/version                - determine the distro and version
    # uname -r                         - determine whether the required kernel
    # lsb_release -rd                  - determine system distro and version

- Generate ssh keys in physical machine

    $ ssh-keygen (physical machine)

- Copy ssh key to virtual machine (Oracle Database server)

    $ ssh-copy-id -i .ssh/id_rsa.pub root@1.0.3.61 

- Login to Oracle database virtual machine (demo1.localdomain)

    $ ssh -Y root@1.0.3.61

- Set hostname to "/etc/hosts" file if not using DNS domain server

    # vim /etc/hosts # (as root)
    1.0.3.61    demo1.localdomain   demo1

- Set Gateway and hostname to file "/etc/sysconfig/network"

    # vim /etc/sysconfig/network # (as root)
    NETWORKING=yes
    NETWORKING_IPV6=no
    HOSTNAME=demo1.localdomain
    Gateway=1.0.3.2

- Set IP Address settings to file "ifcfg-eth0"

    # vim  /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 # (as root)

- Restart Network services

    # /etc/init.d/network restart

- Check network settings

    [root@demo1 ~]# hostname

    [root@demo1 ~]# ifconfig 
    eth0    Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0C:29:8F:06:9A

    RMAN> report schema; # check schema
    RMAN> configure controlfile autobackup on; # set controlfiles to be backup with database
    RMAN> backup database plus archivelog; # backuped database with archivelogs  

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Create a script to startup & shutdown Oracle database & Enterprise Manager <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- Create a file called "/etc/init.d/dbora" as the root user, containing the following.

 
    # vim /etc/init.d/dbora
    #!/bin/sh
    # chkconfig: 345 99 10
    # description: Oracle auto start-stop script.
    #
    # Set ORA_OWNER to the user id of the owner of the 
    # Oracle database software.

    ORA_OWNER=oracle

    case "$1" in
    'start')
    # Start the Oracle databases:
    # The following command assumes that the oracle login 
    # will not prompt the user for any values
    # Remove "&" if you don't want startup as a background process.
    su $ORA_OWNER -c "/home/oracle/scripts/startup.sh >> /home/oracle/scripts/startup_shutdown.log 2>&1" &

    touch /var/lock/subsys/dbora
    ;;
    'stop')
    # Stop the Oracle databases:
    # The following command assumes that the oracle login 
    # will not prompt the user for any values
    su $ORA_OWNER -c "/home/oracle/scripts/shutdown.sh >> /home/oracle/scripts/startup_shutdown.log 2>&1"
    rm -f /var/lock/subsys/dbora
    ;;
    esac

- Use the chmod command to set the privileges to 750.

 
    # chmod 750 /etc/init.d/dbora

- Associate the "dbora" service with the appropriate run levels and set it to auto-start using the following command.

 
    # chkconfig dbora on

- create the "startup.sh" and "shutdown.sh" scripts in the "/home/oracle/scripts". First create the directory.

 
    # mkdir -p /home/oracle/scripts
    # chown oracle.oinstall /home/oracle/scripts

- The "/home/oracle/scripts/startup.sh" script should contain the following commands.

 
    # vim /home/oracle/scripts/startup.sh
    #!/bin/bash

    export TMP=/tmp
    export TMPDIR=$TMP
    export PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
    export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=demo1.localdomain
    export ORACLE_UNQNAME=demo1

    export ORACLE_SID=demo1
    ORAENV_ASK=NO
    . oraenv
    ORAENV_ASK=YES

    # Start Listener
    lsnrctl start

    # Start Database
    sqlplus / as sysdba << EOF
    STARTUP;
    EXIT;
    EOF
    
    # Start Enterprise Manager
    emctl start dbconsole

- The "/home/oracle/scripts/shutdown.sh" script is similar.

 
    # vim /home/oracle/scripts/shutdown.sh
    #!/bin/bash

    export TMP=/tmp
    export TMPDIR=$TMP
    export PATH=/usr/sbin:/usr/local/bin:$PATH
    export ORACLE_HOSTNAME=demo1.localdomain
    export ORACLE_UNQNAME=demo1

    export ORACLE_SID=demo1
    ORAENV_ASK=NO
    . oraenv
    ORAENV_ASK=YES

    # stop Enterprise Manager
    emctl stop dbconsole

    # Stop Database
    sqlplus / as sysdba << EOF
    SHUTDOWN IMMEDIATE;
    EXIT;
    EOF

    # Stop Listener
    lsnrctl stop

- Make sure the permissions and ownership of the files is correct.

 
    # chmod u+x /home/oracle/scripts/startup.sh /home/oracle/scripts/shutdown.sh
    # chown oracle.oinstall /home/oracle/scripts/startup.sh /home/oracle/scripts/shutdown.sh

- Test them using the following command as the "root" user.

 
    # service dbora start
    # service dbora stop
