Grid Control (01)

Thursday 22 May, 2008 - 11:51

Doing pre-installation check for Enterprise Manager Grid Control using Enterprise Manager Grid Control Quick Installation Guide for Linux x86.

Not really sure about memory requirements. Going with 2Gb RAM.

Added an 8Gb drive as /dev/sdb. Formatted one (1) partition as ext3. Mounted as /u00. Updated /etc/fstab.

# fdisk /dev/sdb

# mkfs.ext3 /dev/sdb1

# mkdir /u00

# mount -t ext3 /dev/sdb1 /u00

# cat >>/etc/fstab

/dev/sdb1 /u00 defaults 1 3

Updated /etc/sysctl.conf:

kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128

kernel.shmmax = 1073741824

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

Changed the hostname via /etc/sysconfig/network.

Installed the sysstat package. Some of the packages listed have spelling errors!
