This article contains all information related to the install Oracle Restart Database 21c (Linux) without ASM.

I did the test and you can use the same procedure for versions (12.2,18c,19c).

Just change the response_schema for the Grid and Database version you want to use, in the response file.

1.  Oracle Database Prerequisites Packages for Oracle Linux

Use this procedure to install the Oracle Database prerequisites group package for your Oracle software.

The oracle-database-preinstall-21c package installs all the packages required for an Oracle Database and Oracle Grid Infrastructure installation. It also creates the oracle user and the oinstall and dba groups for that user.

To install the oracle-database-preinstall-21c package, log in as root, and run the following command on Linux:

yum install oracle-database-preinstall-21c

2. Installing Oracle Grid Infrastructure Standalone Server for Oracle Linux with Silent Mode

Complete these steps to install Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server and then create a database that is managed by Oracle Restart

Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server, which installs Oracle Restart.

You should have your network information, storage information, and operating system users and groups available to you before you start the installation. You should also be prepared to run root scripts or provide information to automate root scripts.

1 . Log in as the Oracle Restart software owner user (oracle).

2. If this is the first time you are installing Oracle software, then create the Oracle base and the Oracle inventory directories as per the Oracle Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA) recommendations. Specify the correct owner, group, and permissions for these directories.

root@dutsDB ~]#  mkdir -p /u01/app/oraInventory

[root@dutsDB ~]#  chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app/oracle

[root@dutsDB ~]#  chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01/app/oraInventory

[root@dutsDB ~]#  chmod -R 775 /u01/app

3. Download the Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server installation image files, create the grid home directory, and extract the image files in this grid home directory.

[oracle@dutsDB u01]$ mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/21.0.0/grid

[oracle@dutsDB u01]$ cd /u01/app/oracle/product/21.0.0/grid

[oracle@dutsDB grid]$ unzip -q /u01/binarios/Oracle_21_3_Grid.ziprm

[oracle@dutsDB grid]$ rm –rf OPatch

[oracle@dutsDB grid]$ unzip -q /u01/binarios/p6880880_190000_Linux-x86-64.zip

4. Prepare the response file grid_setup.rsp.

oracle.install.responseFileVersion=/oracle/install/rspfmt_crsinstall_response_schema_v21.0.0

INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u01/app/oraInventory

oracle.install.option=CRS_SWONLY 

ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app

oracle.install.asm.OSDBA=dba

oracle.install.asm.OSASM=oinstall

oracle.install.crs.config.ClusterConfiguration=STANDALONE

5. Log in as the Oracle Restart software owner user and run gridSetup.sh with option to applyRU and silent mode:

oracle@dutsDB grid]$ ./gridSetup.sh -silent -responseFile /u01/binarios/grid_setup.rsp

Launching Oracle Grid Infrastructure Setup Wizard...
