Oracle AI Database Installer Command-Line Options

Use this comprehensive list of Oracle AI Database installer silent mode commands to install, configure, and manage Oracle AI Database.

runInstaller Command

The runInstaller command supports general installer operations through optional flags, including silent or response-file installations, prerequisite validation, debugging, one-off patch application, configuration-tool execution, and automatic root-script execution using either root or sudo. Options also control inventory locations, sudo credentials, stack checks, and help output; for example, a silent installation can use a response file while ignoring prerequisite failures.

runInstaller -setupDBHome

The runInstaller -setupDBHome command installs Oracle AI Database software and registers it with the central inventory. It requires the Oracle base directory and operating-system groups for SYSDBA, SYSBACKUP, SYSDG, SYSKM, and SYSRAC, while optionally supporting SYSOPER, prerequisite checks, automatic root-script execution, cluster-node lists, Enterprise or Standard Edition 2 selection, and a specified inventory location.

runInstaller -setupDBHomeAs

The runInstaller -setupDBHomeAs command installs Oracle AI Database software using the Oracle base and privileged operating-system group configuration from a specified source Oracle home. Optional parameters allow overriding group assignments, Oracle base, cluster nodes, database edition, prerequisite execution, and root-script execution, with support for multi-node installations modeled on the source home.

runInstaller -createDatabase

The runInstaller -createDatabase command installs Oracle AI Database software and creates a single-instance database, including a container database and pluggable database, when no existing Oracle home is available. It requires privileged operating-system groups, Oracle base, database identity values, memory allocation, and either a filesystem data location or ASM disk group; optional features include recovery, automatic memory management, database edition and type selection, Enterprise Manager integration, shared schema passwords, configuration tools, inventory specification, and automatic root-script execution.

runInstaller -createGoldImage

The runInstaller -createGoldImage command creates a gold image from the current Oracle AI Database home and stores it in a required destination directory. It runs silently and optionally accepts a comma-separated list of absolute files or directories to exclude, including wildcard-based directory trees, allowing specific files, patch storage, or multiple paths to be omitted from the image.
