Oracle Validated Configurations致力于为企业提供更简易、更快捷、成本更低的基于Linux和Oracle VM的解决方案。该计划向我们提供经过测试和验证的体系架构，其附带的文档揭示了相关硬件、软件、存储、网络原件的最佳配置实践，以帮助系统提升性能和可收缩性并降低成本。从行业角度来说Oracle Validated Configurations所验证的配置及提供的最佳实践文档受到Oracle合作伙伴的接受和认可，Oracle Validated Configurations提供了推荐使用的软硬件组合的部署方案细节，这些方案已被证明是十分有益的。 Oracle Validated Configurations提供了那些好处？ Oracle Validated Configurations是对系统底层组件在高负载下良好工作的有力保证，同时这些推荐配置也在实践中被证明是易于快速部署的。其有助于：
- 实现标准化的、具有可扩展性、高可用的且成本低廉的解决方案
- 加速并简化在Linux上部署Oracle软件
- 为最终用户降低了测试系统所要花费的昂贵成本
- 转嫁了用户的风险
[oel5] name = Enterprise Linux 5.5 DVD baseurl=file:///media/disk/Server/ gpgcheck=0 enabled=1注意以上name中的OEL版本(指5.5)可能和你手头DVD的版本不一样，这一般不会造成问题，但要保证当前操作系统与安装介质中的完全一致。 5.正式安装oracle-validated软件包环境，使用yum install oracle-validated 命令:
yum install oracle-validated Loaded plugins: security Setting up Install Process Resolving Dependencies --> Running transaction check ---> Package oracle-validated.x86_64 0:1.0.0-22.el5 set to be updated --> Processing Dependency: /usr/lib/libaio.so for package: oracle-validated --> Running transaction check ---> Package libaio-devel.i386 0:0.3.106-5 set to be updated --> Finished Dependency Resolution Dependencies Resolved ========================================================================================== Package Arch Version Repository Size ========================================================================================== Installing: oracle-validated x86_64 1.0.0-22.el5 ol5 16 k Installing for dependencies: libaio-devel i386 0.3.106-5 ol5 12 k Transaction Summary ========================================================================================== Install 2 Package(s) Upgrade 0 Package(s) Total download size: 27 k Is this ok [y/N]: y Downloading Packages: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Total 12 MB/s | 27 kB 00:00 Running rpm_check_debug Running Transaction Test Finished Transaction Test Transaction Test Succeeded Running Transaction Installing : libaio-devel 1/2 Installing : oracle-validated 2/2 Installed: oracle-validated.x86_64 0:1.0.0-22.el5 Dependency Installed: libaio-devel.i386 0:0.3.106-5 Complete!完成对oracle-validated的安装后操作系统软件包环境也就水道渠成了，此外该oracle-validated包还会帮助我们设置必要的Linux内核参数，具体来说它会修改/etc/sysctl.conf配置文件中的参数到Oracle推荐的值，以下为完成oracle-validated安装后的sysctl.conf，供参考:

oracle hard memlock 50000000
