Automating Oracle on System z

Project and Program: Linux & VM, Linux

Tags: Proceedings , SHARE in Boston 2013 , 2013

This presentation discusses how Linux systems can be prepared for Oracle and how the "Silent install" feature of Oracle can be leveraged. It addresses the three levels of service: Infrastructure (virtual machine), Platform (OS) and Software (Oracle).  Specific aspects of both Oracle standalone and grid are addressed such as multipathing of FCP/SCSI disks and the "passwordless authentication" that is required by Oracle grid. The basis of this presentation is now available in a chapter of the the recently published IBM Redbook "Experiences with Oracle 11gR2 on Linux for System z". While the software as a service is customized for Oracle, the methodology should be useful for almost any application. Michael D. MacIsaac IBM Corporation
