Grid Installation Errors

Grid installation errors
Preparing to Install Grid Infrastructure

Oracle Database 11g Release 2 introduces the new Grid Infrastructure Oracle Home which includes Oracle Restart
and Oracle Automatic Storage Management(ASM). To implement ASM, you must install Grid Infrastructure. ASM
requires unformatted partitions to use as ASM disks and group into ASM diskgroups..
In this topic, you partition the disk to be used by ASM, then use oracleasm to label the the disks for discovery by
ASM.
Partitioning the disks
Using oracleasm to label ASM disks
To partition the disks, perform the following steps:

1. Open a terminal window, and become the root OS user. Use the su - root command
2.
As the root user, determine the partitions available. the following command shows all the partitions known to the OS.
cat /proc/partitions
3.
Determine which devices will be partitioned. Use the fdisk <device_name> command for each disk /dev/sdc,
/dev/sdd, /dev/sde, /dev/sdf and specify the values as shown in the screenshots
Check that the expected partitions exist. Partitions named /dev/sdc1, /dev/sdd1, /dev/sde1, and /dev/sdf1should exist. Check by using
cat /proc/partitions
1.
As the root user, configure oracleasm by using the command
lrmj050:~ # oracleasm configure -i
If 'oracleasm' is not a typo you can use command-not-found to lookup the package that contains it, like this:
cnf oracleasm
Install oracleasm rpm files by downloading the rpm packages for sles 12 os
(oracleasm-support-2.1.8-1.SLE12.x86_64.rpm, oracleasmlib-2.0.12-1.sle12.x86_64.rpm)

and answer the prompts as shown in the screenshot.
lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm configure -i
Configuring the Oracle ASM library driver.
This will configure the on-boot properties of the Oracle ASM library driver. The following questions will determine
whether the driver is loaded on boot and what permissions it will have. The current values will be shown in brackets
('[]'). Hitting <ENTER> without typing an answer will keep that current value. Ctrl-C will abort.
Default user to own the driver interface []: oracle
Default group to own the driver interface []: dba
Start Oracle ASM library driver on boot (y/n) [n]: y
Scan for Oracle ASM disks on boot (y/n) [y]: y
Writing Oracle ASM library driver configuration: done
2.
Initialize the asmlib with the oracleasm init command. This command loads the oracleasm module and mounts
the oracleasm filesystem.
lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm init
Creating /dev/oracleasm mount point: /dev/oracleasm
Loading module "oracleasm": oracleasm
Configuring "oracleasm" to use device physical block size
Mounting ASMlib driver filesystem: /dev/oracleasm
3.
Use the oracleasm createdisk <diskname> <device_name> command to create the ASM disk label for
each disk.
In this tutorial name the disks DATA1, DATA2, DATA3, and DATA4 as shown in the screenshot.
lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm createdisk ASMDATA1 /dev/sdb1
Writing disk header: done
Instantiating disk: done

lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm createdisk ASMDATA2 /dev/sdc1
lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm createdisk ASMDATA3 /dev/sdd1
lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm createdisk ASMDATA4 /dev/sde1
4.
Check that the disk are visible using the oracleasm listdisks command.
lrmj050:/tmp # oracleasm listdisks
ASMDATA1
ASMDATA2
ASMDATA3
ASMDATA4
5.
Check the the disks are mounted in the oracleasm filesystem with the command
ls -l /dev/oracleasm/disks
lrmj050:/tmp # ls -l /dev/oracleasm/disks
total 0
brw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 8, 17 May 25 22:37 ASMDATA1

To install Grid Infrastructure for single Server, perform the

following steps:
1. Under home create a directory and copy the grid packages
lrmj050:/home # mkdir SW-Package
unzip the grid packages
lrmj050:/home/SW-Package # unzip linuxamd64_12c_grid_1of2.zip
lrmj050:/home/SW-Package # unzip linuxamd64_12c_grid_2of2.zip
lrmj050:/home/SW-Package # ls
SW-Packagecd grid linuxamd64_12c_database_1of2.zip
linuxamd64_12c_database_2of2.zip linuxamd64_12c_grid_1of2.zip
linuxamd64_12c_grid_2of2.zip
2. Start the Oracle Universal Installer by logging in as oracle user
su oracle
oracle@lrmj050:/home/SW-Package/grid> ls
install response rpm runInstaller runcluvfy.sh sshsetup stage
welcome.html
./runinstaller
When you face the below error
Steps to resolve this issue:Checking monitor: must be configured to display at
least 256 colors
>>> Could not execute auto check for display colors using command
/usr/bin/xdpyinfo. C
heck if the DISPLAY variable is set. Failed <<<<
Do the below steps to resolve the above issue
a) login into root user( su -l root)
b) execute this command : xhost +SI:localuser:oracle
c) login to the oracle user

d) execute ./runInstaller

Errors while installing GRID

1.

Exception Severity: 1
Solution
For the same you need do following
Create a backup copy of /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/lib/stubs
cp -rip /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/lib/stubs/
/home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/lib/stubs.orig
Delete folder
rm -rf /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/lib/stubs
Create a backup copy of /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid /rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mk
cp -rip /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mk
/home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mk.orig
Open home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mk file in vi. Search for
RMAN_LINKLINE. You will see following lines.
RMAN_LINKLINE=$(LINK) $(OPT) $(S0MAIN) $(SSKRMED) $(SKRMPT) \

$(LLIBDBTOOLS) $(LLIBCLIENT) $(LLIBSQL) $(LLIBPLSQL) \
$(LLIBSNLSRTL) $(LLIBUNLSRTL) $(LLIBNLSRTL) \
$(LLIBSLAX) $(LLIBPLSQL) $(LIBPLCN) $(LINKTTLIBS)
Now change it to as follows
RMAN_LINKLINE=$(LINK) $(OPT) $(S0MAIN) $(SSKRMED) $(SKRMPT) \

$(LLIBDBTOOLS) $(LLIBCLIENT) $(LLIBSQL) $(LLIBPLSQL) \
$(LLIBSNLSRTL) $(LLIBUNLSRTL) $(LLIBNLSRTL) \
$(LLIBSLAX) $(LLIBPLSQL) $(LIBPLCN) $(LINKTTLIBS) -lons
And click on retry button.
2. This time I got error for utilities
In the logs for above error I have observed following line

Exception String: Error in invoking target 'utilities' of makefile
'/home/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2016-05-25_12-21-44AM.log' for

Solution
Backup /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk
cp -rip /home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk
/home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk.orig
For above error we need to do changes in
/home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk. Search for PLSHPROF and
you will see following lines in the file.
$(PLSHPROF) : $(ALWAYS) $(PLSHPROF_DEPS)
$(SILENT)$(ECHO)
$(SILENT)$(ECHO) " - Linking hierarchical profiler utility (plshprof)"
$(RMF) $@
$(PLSHPROF_LINKLINE)
Change it to as follows
$(PLSHPROF) : $(ALWAYS) $(PLSHPROF_DEPS)
$(SILENT)$(ECHO)
$(SILENT)$(ECHO) " - Linking hierarchical profiler utility (plshprof)"
$(RMF) $@
$(PLSHPROF_LINKLINE) lons

Solution
For above error we need to do changes
in //home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk' . Search for Linking
external procedure agent and you will see following lines in the file.
$(SILENT)$(ECHO)

$(EXTPROC_LINKLINE) -lagtsh
Further we also need to do changes in

/home/oracle/product/12cR1/grid/rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mk file. Open the file with
text editor and search for EXTPROC_LINKLINE and you will see following lines in the
file.
