2.6.2 Using Oracle Universal Installer to Install Oracle RAC One Node

Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) is the primary tool you use to install Oracle RAC One Node software.

  1. Login to Windows as a user with Administrator user privileges.
  2. Run the setup.exe command from the base directory of the Oracle Database 12c release 2 (12.2) installation media.
  3. Select to configure an Oracle RAC One Node database, and select to install Oracle RAC on all nodes where you want to run Oracle RAC One Node.
  4. Provide information when prompted by OUI. If you need assistance during installation, then click Help. Click Details to see the log file.
If you encounter problems during installation, then examine the OUI actions recorded in the installation log file. The log file is located in the Oracle Inventory directory with a name that includes the timestamp (date_time) of the install process, as shown in this example:
C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActionsdate_time.log

Caution:

The Oracle home name and path that you provide during database installation must be different from the home that you used for the Oracle Grid Infrastructure software. DO NOT install the Oracle Database with Oracle RAC software into the same home in which you installed Oracle Grid Infrastructure software.

Note:

Because Oracle ASM is part of the Oracle Grid Infrastructure home, it cannot be upgraded during an Oracle RAC installation.
