Silent Installation using RunInstaller to install 12c Software, this will be useful when you do not have the X base
system running on the machines (of course in real world they do not), either you need VNC or humming bird tools to
install the oracle software if you want to use Oracle Universal Installer in GUI mode.
Oracle provides you the ability to run the installer with silent option which is a command line parameters and installs
silent and you do not need the GUI.
Have a look at steps
1) Create a oracle_home directory
mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1
#Create inventory directory
[root@Geek DBA11g ~]# mkdir -p /u02/app/oraInventory
[root@Geek DBA11g ~]# chown -R oracle:oinstall /u02/app/oraInventory
2) Extract the 12c Software
unzip V38500-01_2of2.zip
unzip V38500-01_1of2.zip
3) Complete Oracle Pre-requisites' – Written here
4) Modify the response file especially below parameters. Navigate to the database/response/ directory and edit the
db_install.rsp for the following parameters only
oracle.install.option=INSTALL_DB_SWONLY
ORACLE_HOSTNAME=Geek DBA11g
UNIX_GROUP_NAME=oinstall
INVENTORY_LOCATION=/u02/app/oraInventory
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/db_1
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle
oracle.install.db.InstallEdition=EE
oracle.install.db.DBA_GROUP=dba
oracle.install.db.OPER_GROUP=oper
oracle.install.db.BACKUPDBA_GROUP=dba
oracle.install.db.DGDBA_GROUP=asmadmin
oracle.install.db.KMDBA_GROUP=dba
SECURITY_UPDATES_VIA_MYORACLESUPPORT=false
DECLINE_SECURITY_UPDATES=true
5) Run the runInstaller with options
[oracle@Geek DBA11g database]$ ./runInstaller -silent -ignoresysprereqs -responsefile
/home/oracle/database/response/db_install.rsp

DBA11g database]$ [WARNING] [INS-13014] Target environment does not meet some optional requirements.
CAUSE: Some of the optional prerequisites are not met. See logs for details.
/u02/app/oraInventory/logs/installActions2013-11-20_10-16-24AM.log
ACTION: Identify the list of failed prerequisite checks from the log: /u02/app/oraInventory/logs/installActions2013-
11-20_10-16-24AM.log. Then either from the log file or from installation manual find the appropriate configuration to
meet the prerequisites and fix it manually.
You can find the log of this install session at:

As a root user, execute the following script(s):

6) Create Database using DBCA with silent options
Create Directory structure
mkdir –p /u01/app/oracle/flash_recover_area/db12c
