Now that I have installed the correct packages for OMS 12.1.0.4, I am now ready to proceed with the setting of kernel parameters and install OMS 12.1.0.4.
Following the advice in 3.2.1 Kernel Parameter Requirements for Oracle Management Service, I made the following changes to /etc/sysctl.conf:
sudo su - cat >>/etc/sysctl.conf <<DONE net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 11000 65500 kernel.shmmax = 4294967295 DONE
The server was then rebooted to ensure that the parameters changes were permanent.
Following the advice given in 6.3 Prerequisites for Installing an Enterprise Manager System, /etc/security/limits.conf was updated with the following lines:
# ------------------------------------------------------------ # Limits for OEM 12.1.0.4 # ------------------------------------------------------------ oracle soft nofile 4096 oracle hard nofile 16384 oracle soft nproc 4096 oracle hard nproc 13312
I plan to follow the procedure in 6.5 Installing an Enterprise Manager System for a Production Site (Advanced Configuration).
After logging on as the oracle user, I used the following commands to start the installation process:
cd /opt/app/oracle/software/12.1.0.4 ./runInstaller
The following messages appeared:
