Environment: Dell R610 server, Oracle Linux 6.3, Oracle VM Manager 3.1.1 with patch 399, Oracle database enterprise edition 11.2.0.3 with the latest patchset, Ksplice
Objective: install a fully patched Oracle VM Manager 3.1.1 production host
Steps:
1. BIOS config
Enable logical processor(hyper trending), virtualization, Turbo mode, disable C1E, C states, node interleaving(enable NUMA)
C-state
In Oracle VM server 3.1.1, to check if C-state is enabled or not, use the following command to check if the total C-state is not more than 2.
# xenpm get-cpuidle-states | grep total | uniq
total C-states : 2
or in Linux, check it :
C-state: cat /proc/acpi/processor/CPU*/power
P-state: cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/total_tran
cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/stats/time_in_state
NUMA
# numactl --hardware
available: 1 nodes (0)
node 0 cpus: 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23
node 0 size: 49139 MB
node 0 free: 33832 MB
node distances:
node 0
0: 10
How to disable NUMA in Linux OS and Oracle:
pass numa=off to kernel boot parameter in grub.conf, you can check the current kernel parameter in /proc/cmdline.
According to MOS: Enable Oracle NUMA support with Oracle Server Version 11.2.0.1 [ID 864633.1]: Starting with 11.2.0.1, Oracle NUMA support is disabled by default.
example output: NUMA is disabled.

2. Configuring iDRAC ip address, netmask and gateway
After you have done this part, you are able to change it through DRAC and dell openmanage for Linux later on. The default DRAC username and password is root/calvin.
How to reset system by sshing into DRAC?
# racadm serveraction hardreset
3. OS installation through kickstart by foreman
Preparing tftp/dhcp/[dns] server first by PXELinux, DNSmasq or cobber for foreman, we use traditional PXELinux here.
service tftp
{
socket_type = dgram
protocol = udp
wait = yes
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/in.tftpd
server_args = -vvv -s /tftpboot
disable = no
per_source = 11
cps = 100 2
flags = IPv4
}
under /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg, put the following kernel files:
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 30481341 Aug 20 15:27 OL-6.3-x86_64-initrd.img
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3986992 Aug 20 15:27 OL-6.3-x86_64-vmlinuz
# more /tftpboot/pxelinux.cfg/default
default linux
label linux
localboot 0 (important, boot into local hard disk if tftp failed, although DHCP is okay)
Preparing foreman
# more /etc/foreman/settings.yaml
:modulepath: /etc/puppet/modules/
:tftppath: /tftpboot/
:unattended: true
Preparing foreman-proxy
# cat /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.yml| grep -v ^# | grep -v ^$
:daemon: true
:daemon_pid: /var/run/foreman-proxy/foreman-proxy.pid
:port: 8443
:tftp: true
:tftproot: /tftpboot
:tftp_servername: 192.168.0.2
:dns: false
:dhcp: true
:dhcp_vendor: isc
:dhcp_config: /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
:dhcp_leases: /var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases
:puppetca: true
:puppet: true
:log_file: /tmp/proxy.log
:log_level: DEBUG
Preparing DHCP server
# more /etc/dhcp/dhcpd.conf
allow booting;
allow bootp;
omapi-port 7911;
deny unknown-clients;
subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
option broadcast-address 192.168.0.255;
option routers 192.168.0.1;
option domain-name "jephe";
option domain-name-servers 192.168.0.254;
next-server 192.168.0.2;
filename "pxelinux.0";
}
After adding util01.jephe by foreman, it appears in /var/lib/dhcpd/dhcpd.leases as follows:
server-duid "xxxxxx";
host util01.jephe {
dynamic;
hardware ethernet d4:be:d9:ef:aa:bb;
fixed-address 192.168.0.78;
supersede server.filename = "pxelinux.0";
supersede server.next-server = aa:bb:cc:dd; #actually, it's hex code of tftp server ip addr in /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.yml
supersede host-name = "util01.jephe";
}
access DeLL iDRAC at https://dracipaddress , system, properties, EMBEDDED NIC MAC ADDRESSES to get onboard nic1 MAC address
so that you can configure foreman.

then

5. ksplice and ULN
quickstart guide: https://oss.oracle.com/ksplice/docs/ksplice-quickstart.pdf
firstly, get access key for ksplice,
then run the following command
wget -N https://www.ksplice.com/uptrack/install-uptrack
sh install-uptrack 123445555kklkkddkdkakdk
uptrack-upgrade -y
configuring https_proxy in /etc/uptrack/uptrack.conf
Uninstall of Uptrack is very easy. You should consider removing the updates with
uptrack-remove --all followed by #yum remove uptrack.
[root@util01 uptrack]# yum remove uptrack

ULN:
go to linux.oracle.com to register which binds your SSO to ULN, then run uln_register --proxy=1.2.3.4:8080 to register Oracle Linux to ULN, proxy is optional, during text gui interface, it will ask you SSO, CSI etc information for register.
run yum repolist to check if the following are listed.
ol6_x86_64_UEK_latest Latest Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel for Oracle Linux 6 (x86_64) 71
ol6_x86_64_latest Oracle Linux 6 Latest (x86_64)
then run yum update to update system.
6. install Dell openmanage after os install
refer to http://www.fatmin.com/2010/08/installing-dell-openmanage-server-administrator-on-linux.html
Install OpenManage Server Administrator
Step 1: wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/latest/bootstrap.cgi | bash
Step 2: yum -y install srvadmin-all
Step 3: Start Systems Management Data Engine - /etc/init.d/dataeng start
Step 4: Start webinterface - /etc/init.d/dsm_om_connsvc start
Your system homepage is now availible via https://hostname:1311, where hostname is the hostname of your server.
Install Firmware/Bios Management Tools
Step 1: yum install dell_ft_install
Step 2: yum install $(bootstrap_firmware)
Now run either inventory_firmware or inventory_firmware_gui to view your firmware versions, and perform firmware upgrades. Also, you can access server ip dell openmanage at https://serveripaddress:1311/
7. Dell Nagios plugin installation for hardware monitoring
Go to http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL/FAQ to download epel
rpm -Uvh http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/epel-release-6-7.noarch.rpm
then download perl-Config-Tiny rpm from public yum repository:
then install Dell openmanage nagios plugin by running
yum install nagios-plugins-openmanage
[root@util02 yum.repos.d]# /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_openmanage
OK - System: 'PowerEdge R610 II', SN: '5HZXXX', 48 GB ram (6 dimms), 1 logical drives, 2 physical drives

You also need to modify dbstart and dbshut file as follows:

ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER=${1:-$ORACLE_HOME}
[oracle@util01 bin]$ grep -B 1 ORACLE_HOME_LISTNER dbshut

17. after renaming database host, re-generate em repository
modify the following files first.
./app/oracle/product/11.2.0/db_1/network/admin/listener.ora
/etc/hosts
/etc/sysconfig/network
[oracle@util01 bin]$ ./emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop
[oracle@util01 bin]$ ./emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
18. known issue
If you configured vlan for em1 or bond0(em1 and em2), you might not able to start ovmm service with https port 7002.
The solutions is to disable ipv6 as follows:
a. put the following in /etc/modprobe/ipv6.conf
options ipv6 disable=1
b. append the following into /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING_IPV6=off
