registering Oracle linux to Unbreakable Linux Network and installing ASM

In order to install asm related packages for OEL 5.7  I have registered my system to  Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN). For OEL 5  up2date --register command is used. If you are using OEL 6 uln_register is used.

# up2date --register (OEL 5)

# uln_register (OEL 6)

Do not forget , you must have your server has access to internet to register itself on ULN and of course valid ULN account.

After typing up2date --register  you will be asked to enter your ULN uid , pwd and CSI 

The up2date will collect your system information  and this information will be used for system profile.

Then up2date will collect installed packages and associate then with related system.

On last screen collected information is sent to ULN to register.

Asmlib RPM is part of “Oracle Software for Oracle Linux” channel.System must be subscribed to related channel.After login  into ULN web site (linux.oracle.com) go to systems tab and select the system you will subscribe.  By using manage subscriptions you can select “Oracle Software for Oracle linux 5 (x86_64)” channel to save .Now you can download all asmlib software directly from ULN.

To install asm related softwares following command is executed for Oracle Linux 5 and older.

# up2date -i oracleasm-support oracleasmlib oracleasm-`uname -r`

if you have Oracle Linux 6

# yum install oracleasm-support oracleasmlib oracleasm-`uname -r`

Wireless component of iAS is unable to be up

After attemping to change hostname of Oracle Portal 10.1.4.0 i have seen that wireless component of iAS did not start with opmnctl. The renaming operation was not successfull and of course some negative affects occured.

Oracle MOS has an article about this which shows that node_name for wireless components are set incorrectly.

SQL> select oracle_home, ins_name, node_name from wireless.ptg_rt_sts_table;

Therefore these components will not restart with incorrect node_name.

For resolution wireless.ptg_rt_sts_table can be updated to correct name by updating node_name column for related component rows.

The Wireless Component of the iAS Will Not Start Using opmnctl or the Enterprise Manager (Doc ID 579793.1)
