Creating Oracle user and groups on the new node

1. 1. On the new node, create user and groups for Oracle. Be sure to assign the same user ID, group ID, and home directory as exists on the existing cluster systems. For example, enter:

   # mkgroup id='101' dba

   # mkgroup id='102' oper

   # mkuser id='1001' pgrp='dba' groups='oper' \ home='/opt/oracle' oracle

2. Create a password for the user oracle:

   # passwd oracle

3. Log in as user "oracle" and change the password.

   $ passwd
