How to Install: Oracle Database 11 g R2 (11.2.0.1) on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11
Oracle Database 11g R2 (11.2.0.1) is certified on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (SLES11). This document is not a replacement of official Oracle Installation manual but provided to help you to get Oracle Database installed on SLES11 with minimal efforts.
Follow the Installation instructions provided in the SLES11 install manual. SLES11 with default packages along with Oracle Server Base, and "C/C++ Compiler and Tools" is sufficient for Oracle Database 11g R2 installation. Oracle Server Base provides orarun package, which does most of the
Oracle pre-install requirement i.e. setting kernel parameters, oracle user creation, etc.. Here is screen-shot from SLES11 (x86_64) server.
Check whether C/C++ compiler is installed using"gcc --version". If gcc is not installed, then use YaST setup tool to install "C/C++ Compiler and Tools".
SUSE provides orarun packages to automate most of the Oracle pre-install task. Refer to Oracle installation document for complete list of prerequisites.
Set parameter START_ORACLE_DB="yes" in "/etc/sysconfig/oracle" file. You can edit file "/etc/sysconfig/oracle" manually or use YaST setup tool to change oracle specific parameters.
