Establishing graphical access for the wizard
The configuration wizard requires graphical access to the VCS systems where you want to configure service groups. If your VCS systems do not have monitors, or if you want to run the wizards from a remote UNIX system, do the following:
To establish graphical access from a remote system
-
From the remote system, (
jupiter, for example), run:
# xhost +
-
Do one of the following, depending on your shell:
-
For Bourne shell (
bash, sh, or ksh), run this step on one of the systems where the wizard is to run, for example galaxy:
# export DISPLAY=jupiter:0.0
-
For C shell (
csh), run this step
# setenv DISPLAY jupiter:0.0
-
Verify that the DISPLAY environment variable has been updated:
# echo $DISPLAY
jupiter:0.0
To set up pre-Oracle configuration for the wizard
-
Become
oracle user:
# su - oracle
-
Start up the listeners on all cluster nodes:
# $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start LISTENER_X
-
Start up the Oracle RAC instances on each node. For example:
# export ORACLE_SID=rac1
# sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
sqlplus> startup
-
Set the
TNS_NAMES parameter if the listeners.ora and tnsnames.ora files are not under the default directory.
