A few lessons learned while going through the install steps on OSX. If you
are planning to use an External Harddrive, I would highly advise
*against*it. I went through 3 installation attempts, which failed at
the root.sh
script due to various issues ranging from ASM disks to Node Connectivity.
In addition, for the ASM Configuration, once the Volume is created there's
a missing step (I think) to Enable it. I was attempting to create a ACFS
mount when it kept erroring the /SHARED volume needs to enabled. It would
be great to include this step.
As we have discussed in previous threads, the differences between the steps
(for Windows) and OSX are minimal. I didn't see a need to install VNC on
the Guest VM's since I was able to startup an X-Windows session on OSX.
Alternatively, we can direct the users to install the desktop components
(don't shoot me for saying this!! :))
Timings:
*Create VM, Install Linux (including network and storage) and Configure
Node1: *1 hour 30 Minutes
*Clone VM, Install Linux (including network and storage) and Configure
Node2: *30 Minutes
*GI Install: *30 Minutes
*Database Install: *30 Minutes
*DBCA: *30 minutes
Cheers!
