About the oradism Utility in Oracle AI Database

Learn how oradism enhances performance and stability for Oracle AI Database on Linux systems.

The oradism utility helps Oracle AI Database perform operations that need privileged OS user like root.

Oracle AI Database installs and configures oradism automatically. The binary resides in $ORACLE_HOME/bin and requires root privileges. The utility runs in the background as ora_dism_<sid>, starting when the database starts and stopping at database shutdown.

Proper configuration of oradism is essential for optimal database operations and performance. If the alert log reports oradism errors, then verify that the binary is in $ORACLE_HOME/bin and is owned by the root user.
