Linux is an exciting new platform, since it is very stable, requires only a fraction of the hardware resources that
Windows NT requires, is a true multitasking operating system, and oh yes, it's free!
Since Oracle 8i is now supported on the Intel/Linux platform, database developers and administrators can now
take advantage of a robust and flexible solution for their database environments.
This paper will describe the operations which must be performed in order to perform a successful installation of
Oracle 8i on Red Hat Linux 6.x.
It will also compare the desktop and tools environments between a Linux and a Windows NT system.
HARDWARE REQUIREMENTS:
RAM:
128 megs RAM (preferably 256 megs) is required to install and run Oracle 8i on Linux. 256 megs or more may
be required to enable Java VM. You can see how much memory is installed by typing:
cat /proc/meminfo
and looking at the MemTotal value. The Linux 2.2 kernel can support up to 2 gigs RAM.
HARD DISK SPACE:
About 800 megs of disk space are needed to install Oracle 8i. (A minimal installation requires about 693 megs).
Check this by typing:
df –k
This size does not include the size of the database.
(The Linux 2.2 kernel scales well up to 4 CPUs. POSIX thread support takes advantage of SMP systems.
Linux can achieve SMP efficiencies approaching 70%).
SOFTWARE REQUIREMENTS:
OPERATING SYSTEM:
Red Hat 6.0, 6.1, or 6.2 (Linux Kernel 2.2)
For Red Hat 7.0, see the "Special Note For Red Hat 7.0" section at the end of this document.
