Request to remove need to have grid:oinstall owner on /u01/app/oraInventory/locks

in Oracle Database Appliance (ODA) (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered ✓

When we upgrade our ODA's, create dbhomes, databases, etc.. we get errors unless we do the following

1. Please verify the ownership and permissions of the Oracle Inventory folder and files:

  # ls -la /u01/app/oraInventory

  # ls -la /u01/app/oraInventory/locks

2. If oracle does not have write access, please remove and recreate the folder using:

# rm -rf /u01/app/oraInventory/locks

# mkdir -p /u01/app/oraInventory/locks

# chown grid:oinstall /u01/app/oraInventory/locks

# chmod 775 /u01/app/oraInventory/locks

3. Then, re-try creating the 19.13 DBHome.


The problem is caused us using Enterprise Manager to look at our databases. The ODA plugin requires us to create a user oemuser to install the agent. The agent changes the ownership to oemuser:oemuser.

Howdy, Stranger!
