Creating a Copy of the Preinstallation Configuration File for the grid User

Create a copy of the preinstallation configuration file for the grid user to set hard and soft limits for the operating system parameters.

  1. As the root user, go to the /etc/security/limits.d directory.
    # cd /etc/security/limits.d
  2. Create a copy of the preinstallation configuration file for the grid user by replacing the oracle user with the grid user.
    # cat oracle-database-preinstall-21c.conf | sed 's/oracle /grid /g' > oracle-grid-user-preinstall-21c.conf
  3. Delete the preinstallation configuration files for the earlier release.
    # rm -r -f oracle-database-preinstall-19c.conf oracle-grid-user-preinstall-19c.conf
