Installation Differences Between Windows and UNIX

Database administrators experienced with installing Oracle components in UNIX environments must note that many manual setup tasks required on UNIX are not required on Windows. Table 4-1 lists the key differences between UNIX and Windows installation.

Table 4-1 Key Differences between UNIX and Windows Installations  

The...	On UNIX Platforms...	On Windows Platforms...
Environment variables, such as PATH, ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, and ORACLE_SID	Must be set manually	Are set in the registry by Oracle Universal Installer
DBA account for database administrators	Must be created manually	Is created by Oracle Universal Installer
Account for running Oracle Universal Installer	Must be created manually	Is not required
Account solely dedicated to installing and upgrading Oracle components	Must be created manually	Is not required

Installations Meeting Minimal Memory Requirements

Installations of Oracle9i on computers with 128 MB of RAM and 200 MB of virtual memory have the following limitations:

• Computers with 128 MB of memory are not able to run Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant, Database Configuration Assistant, or Oracle Net Services Configuration Assistant during an Oracle Universal Installer installation session.

• Depending on how many applications are running on the computer, you may need to further increase the paging file size or reduce the size of the System Global Area (SGA) if you run out of virtual memory. Note that if temporary files and the paging file are both stored on the same physical drive, a situation can occur where the space requirements for one can limit the size of another. If your system has limited free space, then first install the Oracle9i software. After the installation is finished, create a database with the Database Configuration Assistant.

On computer systems that barely meet the minimum memory and virtual memory requirements, 128 MB and 200 MB respectively, perform the following:

• For Oracle9i database installations:
  1. During Oracle9i database installation, choose the Software Only database configuration method.

  2. After installation, run Oracle Net Configuration Assistant. Choose Start > Programs > Oracle - HOME_NAME > Configuration and Migration Tools > Net Configuration Assistant.

  3. After installation, run the appropriate configuration assistant for your needs:
     • To create a new database, run Database Configuration Assistant from the Start Menu. Choose Start > Programs > Oracle - HOME_NAME > Configuration and Migration Tools > Database Configuration Assistant.

     • To upgrade an existing database, run Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant from the Start Menu. Choose Start > Programs > Oracle - HOME_NAME > Configuration and Migration Tools > Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant.

• For Oracle9i Management and Integration installations:

  From the Configuration Tools window, select the following configuration assistants and choose Stop:

  • OiD Configuration Assistant

  • Oracle Workflow Configuration Assistant

    See Also: Chapter 3, "Selecting Database Creation and Oracle Net Services Configuration Methods" "Beginning Your Oracle9i Installation" for specific installation instructions Oracle Internet Directory Administrator's Guide for more information about starting Oracle Internet Directory after installation

Before You Install Oracle9i

Perform the following tasks before installing Oracle components:

1. Read the appropriate online documentation described in "What Documentation Do I Read First?" before you begin installation. This is particularly important if you are upgrading an existing Oracle database, or want to correctly configure a new Oracle9i database that meets your needs.

2. Review and satisfy applicable system and component requirements in Chapter 2, "Preinstallation Requirements" before you begin installation. Refer to "Installations Meeting Minimal Memory Requirements" if your system only meets the minimal memory requirements.

3. If you are installing Oracle Real Application Clusters, then you must complete "Oracle Real Application Clusters Preinstallation Tasks" before running Oracle Universal Installer.

4. Log on as a member of the Administrators group to the computer on which to install Oracle components. Log on as a member of the Domain Administrators group if you are installing on a Primary Domain Controller (PDC) or a Backup Domain Controller (BDC).

5. Delete the ORACLE_HOME environment variable if it exists. Refer to your Microsoft online help for more information about deleting environment variables.

   Note: The ORACLE_HOME environment variable is automatically set in the registry. Manually setting this variable prevents installation.

6. Back up any databases to upgrade. Review "Database Upgrade Requirements".

7. If you are installing in an existing Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) or release 2 (9.2.0) home, stop all Oracle services:
   • On Windows NT, choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Services.

   • On Windows 2000, choose Start > Settings > Control Panel> Administrative Tools > Services.

   • On Windows XP, choose Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.

   1. If any Oracle services (their names begin with "Ora") exist and have the status Started, select the service.

   2. Choose Stop on Windows NT, or choose Action > Stop on Windows 2000.

      In particular, ensure that the Oracle listener service is stopped. This service is named OracleHOME_NAMETNSListener for release 8.1 databases, OracleTNSListener80 for release 8.0 databases, or OracleTNSListener for release 7.3 databases.

   3. Choose Close to exit the Services window.

8. Continue to the "Beginning Your Oracle9i Installation" section.

   Beginning Your Oracle9i Installation

   Using the old Oracle Installer (Installer shipped with releases 7.x and 8.0.x) to install components into an Oracle9i release 2 (9.2) Oracle home directory is not supported. Likewise, you cannot install release 2 (9.2) components into a release 7.x, 8.0.x, or 8.1.x Oracle home.

   See Also: "Planning Your Installation" Appendix B, "Oracle Real Application Clusters Preinstallation Tasks" "Advanced Installation Topics"

   Follow these procedures to install Oracle9i components.

   To install Oracle components from your hard drive:

   1. Create three directories at the same level on your hard drive with the names Disk1, Disk2, and Disk3. You must use these names. For example:

      d:\install\Disk1

      d:\install\Disk2

      d:\install\Disk3

   2. Copy the contents of each component CD to the appropriate directory.

   3. Run Disk1\setup.exe.

      The Welcome window appears.

   4. Continue to step 3 of the next section.

   To install Oracle components from the CDs:

   1. Insert the first component CD.

      The Autorun window automatically appears. If the Autorun window does not appear:

      1. Choose Start > Run.

      2. Enter the following:

         DRIVE_LETTER:\autorun\autorun.exe

         The Autorun window appears.

   2. Choose Install/Deinstall Products from the Autorun window.

      The Welcome window appears.

   3. Choose Next.
      • If Oracle Universal Installer is running on a cluster, then the Cluster Node Selection window appears. Select the nodes on which you want to install the Oracle software. The local node is always selected by default.

      • The File Locations window appears. Do not change the directory path in the Source field. This is the location of installation files.

   4. Enter the Oracle home name and directory path in which to install Oracle components in the Destination fields.

      Attention: Do not install Oracle9i release 2 (9.2) software into an existing Oracle home that contains Oracle8i or earlier software.

   If you are installing Oracle Real Application Clusters, then all nodes in the cluster must have the same Oracle home name.

   The Oracle home name can be up to 16 characters in length and must include only alphanumeric characters and underscores. Spaces are not allowed. Note that Oracle Universal Installer does not accept a number as the first character in the Name field. The default directory path is <drive with the most available space>:\oracle\ora92.

   Note: If you install Oracle9i into an Oracle home directory that already contains Oracle9i release 2 (9.2) client software, the listener is not created. To create the listener, install and run Oracle Net Configuration Assistant. If the Administrator client is installed before Oracle9i, then Oracle Net Configuration Assistant is already installed.

5. Choose Next.

   The Available Products window appears. Continue to the "Choosing an Installation Type" section.

Choosing an Installation Type

Select the Oracle top-level component and installation type from Table 4-2 that best meets your needs. Choose Next. Proceed to one of the following sections based on your selection.

Upgrading Oracle Internet Directory

Oracle Internet Directory upgrade is supported from Oracle Internet Directory release 2.1.1.x and 3.0.1.x. If the Oracle home where you intend to perform the upgrade of Oracle Internet Directory also contains a complete Enterprise Edition installation, then you must perform the Oracle Internet Directory upgrade before the Enterprise Edition upgrade.

Single-Node Upgrade

Perform the following procedures to upgrade the OID installed in the Oracle home.

• Preparing to Upgrade Oracle Internet Directory

• Starting Oracle Internet Directory Upgrade

Preparing to Upgrade Oracle Internet Directory

If Oracle Internet Directory release 2.1.1.x or 3.0.1.x is already installed in an Oracle home, ensure that you:

1. Stop the Oracle listener service, Oracle database service, and Oracle Internet Directory processes (OID Monitor, OID Server, Replication Server, and Directory Integration Server).

2. Know the system identifier (SID), Oracle directory server (ODS) user password, and Oracle Internet Directory administrator password of the Oracle8i or Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) database to upgrade.

3. Remove the Oracle Directory service registered in the existing Oracle home, by executing the following:

   oidmon remove

4. Perform a complete backup prior to upgrade. The best way to do this is to create a backup of the database.

   See Also: An alternative upgrade procedure is available to perform the upgrade manually rather than through Oracle Universal Installer. It is documented in the "Alternate Procedure-Upgrading a Stand-Alone Node" section in Appendix D of Oracle Internet Directory Administrator's Guide

Starting Oracle Internet Directory Upgrade

The Upgrade OID windows appears if you have a previously installed version of Oracle Internet Directory on your computer. Follow these procedures to upgrade Oracle Internet Directory:

1. The Upgrading an Existing Database windows appears. Select the Oracle Internet Directory Oracle8i or Oracle9i release 1 (9.0.1) database to upgrade.

2. Select Yes to upgrade the existing database.

3. Choose Next.

   The Oracle SID window appears.

4. Enter the SID of the existing database.

5. Choose Next.

   The Configuration Tools window appears at the end of installation.

6. Continue the Oracle Internet Directory section in "Individual Component Postinstallation Configuration Tasks" to complete any required postinstallation tasks.

Upgrading Oracle Internet Directory in a Multi-Node Environment

You can upgrade a multi-node Oracle Internet Directory system in two ways:

• Upgrading One Node at a Time

• Upgrading all the Nodes at the Same Time

Upgrading One Node at a Time

In this method, while the upgrade on one node is in progress, all other nodes remain available. This method requires you to follow the following guidelines:

• When you are upgrading a replication network one node at a time, the upgrade is not complete until all nodes are upgraded. However, during this period, all network nodes except the one being upgraded remain available.

• While the upgrade is in progress, only one node should be read-write. The remaining nodes should be read-only.

• Perform the upgrade on the Master Definition Site (MDS) before you upgrade the other sites.

Perform the following tasks before upgrading one node at a time:

1. Stop the Oracle Internet Directory processes.

2. Delete ASR push jobs temporarily.

   Run the delasrjobs.sql script located in the ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\ldap\admin directory. This script deletes the Oracle9i Replication jobs on the other master sites that push changes to the MDS. Deleting these jobs temporarily removes the node from the replication environment so that no changes can be applied to it. Other nodes, however, remain operational and continue replicating changes.

3. Perform the upgrade at each node. Refer to "Single-Node Upgrade" for more information.

4. After you have upgraded the node, create ASR push jobs.

   Create jobs on the other nodes by running the creasrjobs.sql script on the upgraded node. The script is located in the ORACLE_BASE\ORACLE_HOME\ldap\admin directory. This script creates the jobs on the other nodes that were previously deleted. These newly created jobs start pushing the existing changes and new changes on the other nodes to the node you have just upgraded.

Upgrading all the Nodes at the Same Time

If you use this method, the system is not available during the upgrade process. Perform the following tasks before upgrading all the nodes at the same time:

1. Set all the nodes in the network to read-only mode.
   • Edit the input file:
     • dn:

     • changetype: modify

     • replace: orclservermode

     • orclservermode: r

   • Run the following command against all the nodes in the replication network:

     ldapmodify -D super_user_DN -w super_user_password -h host_name -p 
     port_number -f input_file.ldif
     
     

2. Wait until all the changes in the change log queue are applied. Before moving to the next step, wait for the change log queue to empty.

   Note: If you skip this step, then the changes in the change log queue are applied once the nodes are upgraded.

3. Verify that you have stopped the Oracle Internet Directory processes and shut down the database.

4. Perform the upgrade at each node. Refer to "Single-Node Upgrade" for more information.

Backward Compatibility

When an existing replication Directory Replication Group (DRG) is being upgraded, some of the updates made on the upgraded Oracle Internet Directory 9.2.0 will not replicate to the nodes that are not upgraded yet. These upgrades will eventually replicate successfully once the consumer is upgraded to 9.2.0. If possible,

• Do not make changes on the upgraded nodes unless all the nodes in the DRG are upgraded.

• If you need to update upgraded nodes, then do not push the changes to the other nodes unless they are upgraded. Pushing the changes can be temporarily disabled by bringing the replication server up in a specific mode (-o FALSE). Run the following command to start the replication in this mode:

  oidctl connect=connect_string server=server_name instance=1 flags="-p port 
  -h host_name -o FALSE" start

    See Also: "Reviewing the Installation Session Log" for a summary of your installation session Chapter 6, "Postinstallation Configuration Tasks"

    Reviewing the Installation Session Log

    The first time the Installer runs it creates the SYSTEM_DRIVE:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs directory. An inventory of installed components and installation actions performed are kept in this directory.

    Log filenames take the form installActionsdate_time.log (for example, installActions2001-07-14_09-00-56-am.log).

    You can also view a list of installed components by choosing Installed Products on any window of Oracle Universal Installer. A window of installed programs appears.

    Note: Do not delete or manually alter the Inventory directory or its contents. Doing so can prevent the Installer from locating products that you install on your system.
