Step-by-Step Guide: Installing Oracle Database 23ai on Oracle Linux 8

Installing an RDBMS has never been easier than with Oracle 23ai. Believe me, it takes just three simple steps to get the Oracle 23ai database up and running.

  1. Rpm Installation.
sudo yum install oracle-database-preinstall-23c-1.0-0.5.el8.x86_64.rpm
sudo yum install oracle-database-ee-23c-1.0-1.el8.x86_64.rpm

The above RPM will now download the setup into the Oracle home directory located at /opt/oracle/product/23ai/dbhome_1.

2. Create database

Besides installing the software, the RPM also generates a script that enables us to create a database named ‘ORCLCDB,’ which includes a pluggable database (PDB) called ‘ORCLPDB1.’ Below, we set the DB_PASSWORD environment variable to facilitate a silent database creation using this script.

1) export DB_PASSWORD=SysPassword1
2) (echo "${DB_PASSWORD}"; echo "${DB_PASSWORD}";) | /etc/init.d/oracledb_ORCLCDB-23c configure

Your Oracle 23ai AI database is now up and running. This script handles the entire silent installation automatically.

3) Start and Stop of service.

/etc/init.d/oracledb_ORCLCDB-23c  stop
/etc/init.d/oracledb_ORCLCDB-23c  start
