Re: Required packages on a zLinux server running Oracle vs "Put everything on"

2011-12-16 Thread Berry van Sleeuwen
Installing Oracle doesn't require X. The only reason Oracle guys want X is because they've learned how to do it on Windows and don't (want to) know the silent install method. Even more so, a silent install can be scripted, can be automated by the linux sysadmin, can make *their* install jobs ob

Thanks for the options. I ended up using extundelete. First flashcopy the 3390-3 that this directory was on. Never take a chance on making things worse. Backup first. The files lost were VSE Virtual Tape files. I could mount the real 3420 volumes again and copy them to virtual tape, so that w

There is a difference between the installation requirements and the runtime, as is usual. Installation requires x , but runtime doesn't - and the docs state 4GB as that's the amount needed to get a full install. If you're a min install, you might get away with 2GB without swapping to hard, but t

I don't know if that would help too. Our Oracle "specialist" ran a script from Oracle to determine requirements and demanded that the requirements would be met otherwise he couldn't install Oracle. This is an SLES11 with Oracle 11. So now we have a guest with 4G memory, 2G /tmp and a lot of pack
