4. Run the following command to change the kernel parameters
/sbin/sysctl -p
5. Add the following security parameter in /etc/security/limits.con
oracle soft nproc 2047
oracle hard nproc 16384
oracle soft nofile 1024
oracle hard nofile 65536
6. Edit /etc/pam.d/login and add following line
session required pam_limits.so
7. SElinux and firewall should be turned off modify /etc/selinux/config
SELINUX=disabled
8.Creating following users and Groups
groupadd oinstall
groupadd dba
groupadd oper
useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle
passwd oracle
9.Create directory to house oracle and change ownership
#mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
#chown -R oracle.oinstall /u01
10.edit /etc/redhat-release
OR
runinstaller ignoresysprereqs
11.Edit the /home/oracle/.bash_profile
add the following lines
# Oracle Settings
TMP=/tmp; export TMP
TMPDIR=$TMP; export TMPDIR
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/10.2.0/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME

PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
if [ $USER = "oracle" ]; then
if [ $SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then
ulimit -p 16384
ulimit -n 65536
else
ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536
fi
fi
12.Log into the oracle user. Execute command
xterm to verify DISPLAY environmental variable set properly else
