 Siebel Open UI Installation in Redhat - Step 2 : Oracle 32 bit Client Installation

Create directories /var/adm/siebel and /var/adm.
mkdir -p /var/adm/siebel
chown -Rf siebel:siebapp /var/adm/
chmod -Rf 775 /var/adm
Extract all the Siebel software in one place /u01/siebel/installables

cd /u01/app/oraInventory/
chmod -Rf 777 *

cd to 
/u01/siebel/client/stage/cvu/cv/admin
[siebel@siebelservername]$ vi cvu_config
Change CV_ASSUME_DISTID from oel 4 to oel 6

cd /premia/siebel/32_linux_11gR2_client/client
./runInstaller

Select Administrator and click Next.

Enter the Oracle Base Folder and Software location. The location is where the Client binary is kept.

Click Install and wait until the installation is finished.

We need to add the siebelservername tns string in tnsnames.ora file

cd /u01/siebel/oraclient/db/product/11.2.0/client_1
cd network/admin
vi tnsnames.ora

# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: /u01/siebel/oraclient/db/product/11.2.0/client_1/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
siebelservername =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = siebelservername)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = siebelservername)
)
)

Add the bash profile environment for Siebel user. The file should be in /home/siebel/.bash_profile

cd  /home/siebel/

vi .bash_profile

Add these lines

RESOLV_MULTI=off; export RESOLV_MULTI
ORACLE_SID=SIEBELDB; export ORACLE_SID
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/siebel/oraclient/db; export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/siebel/oraclient/db/product/11.2.0/client_1; export ORACLE_HOME
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/jdk/jre:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
ODBCINI=${SIEBEL_ROOT}/sys/.odbc.ini ; export ODBCINI
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin:/usr/java/jdk1.6.0_26/bin:/usr/sbin; export PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH= $ORACLE_HOME/lib32 :$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH

You also need to install Java and add the Java path. This is not shown here.
