3 Meeting Package, Kernel Parameter, and Library Requirements

This chapter describes the packages, kernel parameters settings, and libraries required on different platforms (32-bit and 64-bit) for installing a new Enterprise Manager system, an additional Oracle Management Service (OMS), and a standalone Oracle Management Agent (Management Agent).

In particular, this chapter covers the following:

Note:

Package Requirements

This section lists the packages required on different platforms (32-bit and 64-bit) for installing an OMS or a Management Agent. In particular, this section covers the following:

Identifying Installed Packages

To identify the packages already installed on your system, run the following command. If the command does not list the packages listed in Package Requirements for Oracle Management Service or Package Requirements for Oracle Management Agent, then install them manually.

rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}-%{RELEASE}(%{ARCH})\n" | grep glibc

The command lists all the packages installed on the system. The 32-bit ones are appended with (i386) and the 64-bit ones are appended with (x86_64).

For example, if you run the command on a 32-bit system, you should see something similar to the following:

glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.43(i386)
glibc-headers-2.3.4-2.43(i386)
glibc-2.3.4-2.43(i686)
compat-glibc-headers-2.3.2-95.30(i386)
glibc-profile-2.3.4-2.43(i386)
glibc-utils-2.3.4-2.43(i386)
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-9.1.103.EL(i386)
glibc-common-2.3.4-2.43(i386)
compat-glibc-2.3.2-95.30(i386)

For example, if you run the command on a 64-bit system, you should see something similar to the following:

glibc-common-2.3.4-2.43(x86_64)
glibc-devel-2.3.4-2.43(x86_64)
glibc-profile-2.3.4-2.43(x86_64)
glibc-headers-2.3.4-2.43(x86_64)
glibc-utils-2.3.4-2.43(x86_64)
glibc-2.3.4-2.43(x86_64)

Kernel Parameter Requirements

For installing an OMS or a Management Agent on Oracle Linux 6 & 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, SUSE Linux Enterprise 10 & 11, and Asianux Server 3, set the kernel.shmmax parameter to a value less than 4 GB.

To verify the value assigned to kernel.shmmax parameter, run the following command:

cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax

To set the value for kernel.shmmax parameter, run the following command:

sysctl -w kernel.shmmax=<new value>
