Therefore making yourself strong with various Linux derivates for your carrier in IT! I Love Linux, but do not hate Windows This is a manual way to set up the CentOS Server in an Oracle Virtual Box and not using the automated way of installing server using Vagrant or any other tools or software The good basics of setting up a VM is vital for a good understanding how virtualization is used. For example, network set up and minimum memory etc used The plan is to follow the steps required to prepare a Linux server for an Oracle Database installation, but no need to install Oracle Database. In the section 'Prepare for Oracle Database' gives you the details
Just a part of the screen was taken as snapshot that is important to avoid more screens and space
Prerequisites We/you need to have basic understanding of Oracle Virtual Box download on your system and attaching ISO to start installation
In this article CentOS 6.8 used which you can download from the above link. The direct link is
http://vault.centos.org/6.8/isos/x86_64/
I downloaded with DVD ISO
CentOS-6.8-x86_64-LiveDVD.iso
Oracle Virtual Box Network setup
Two network cards used: 1) Host only (static) and (2) NAT Adapter for connecting to internet from the server Server Installation Screens Custom LVM Setup Click X to close
System reboots to make changes
Eject DVD Power off the VM
Start the VM disabled Kdump Installation Complete Login to Server
YUM - Software Package installer
Hostname Setup file
Network Setup ~]# dhclient eth 0/1/2
This dhclient brings up the Static Network card up and running
The 10.0.3.0 is the Routing gateway for NAT Network card and 192.168.56.0 is the Routing Gateway for Static Network card
The entry of 192.168.56.1 is saved in the file for getting the DNS of Oracle Virtual Box. Without this "...56.1 " entry your static IP will not work
SSH Login Check
Open a Putty session and check Repository Setup [root@centos6-host1 ~]# more /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e24326/toc.htm#BHCHGDIE What's next ? We come to a question, is that all I have to do to learn Linux with that example?
Obviously no!
The next one is prepare the Linux server for RAC Installation
