Oracle 19c - Oracle Home Gold Image Creation - RDBMS Binary Clone - 19c Oracle Home Gold Image - Demo!

February 03, 2021  

 

Hello All,

In this video, We're going to discuss about step by step procedure used to clone an Oracle 19c database software ORACLE_HOME. 

As a one-time task, we use the new Oracle 19c option –createGoldImage to create a ‘master’ copy of the Oracle 19c database software (this will include April 2020 RU patch).

The generated zip file is then copied to the target servers and then extracted in the target ORACLE_HOME directory.

The note describes the ‘silent’ method as well as using the OUI to set up the Oracle 19c database software.

Step1: Create the RDBMS Binary Gold Image:

 $ORACLE_HOME/runInstaller -createGoldImage -destinationLocation /u03/softwares -silent

Step2: Copy the zip file to the target server: 

scp -rp Oralce 19c_Gold_Image.zip oracle@srlabgg2:/u03/softwares

 

Step3: Create the directory structure for the ORACLE_HOME on the target server: 

mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/19.3.0.0/db_2

Step4: Unzip the file:

mv 19c_Jan_PSU_Gold_Image.zip /u01/app/oracle/product/19.3.0.0/db_2

cd /u01/app/oracle/product/19.3.0.0/db_2

unzip Oracle 19c_Gold_Image.zip

Step5: Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) Method:

./runInstaller

Silent Method:

$ export ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/19.3.0.0/db_2

$ export ORA_INVENTORY=/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory

$ export ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle

./runInstaller -ignorePrereq -waitforcompletion -silent \

ORACLE_BASE=${ORACLE_BASE} \

> -responseFile ${ORACLE_HOME}/install/response/db_install.rsp \

> oracle.install.option=INSTALL_DB_SWONLY \

> UNIX_GROUP_NAME=dba \

> INVENTORY_LOCATION=${ORA_INVENTORY} \

oracle.install.db.OSDGDBA_GROUP=dba \

> ORACLE_HOME=${ORACLE_HOME} \

oracle.install.db.OSKMDBA_GROUP=dba \

> ORACLE_BASE=${ORACLE_BASE} \

> oracle.install.db.InstallEdition=EE \

> oracle.install.db.OSDBA_GROUP=dba \

> oracle.install.db.OSOPER_GROUP=dba \

> oracle.install.db.OSBACKUPDBA_GROUP=dba \

> oracle.install.db.OSDGDBA_GROUP=dba \

> oracle.install.db.OSKMDBA_GROUP=dba \

> oracle.install.db.OSRACDBA_GROUP=dba

Hope this helps!

Ramesh.
