2- Installing the Preinstaller (RPM)

To avoid having to prepare the system manually, Oracle provides a pre-installation package that automatically prepares the operating system by configuring all the necessary requirements for the installation.

We set up the repository to download the rpm file.

To do this, navigate to the /etc/repos.d directory and create the following repository oracle-linux-9.repo.

The content is:

[root@oracle19cdb1 yum.repos.d]# cat oracle-linux-9.repo
[ol9_addons]
name=Oracle Linux 9 Addons
baseurl=https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL9/addons/x86_64/
RPM
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1


[ol9_appstream]
name=Oracle Linux 9 AppStream
baseurl=https://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL9/appstream/x86_64/
RPM
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1

Actualizamos el metadata antes de descargar el fichero.
sudo dnf clean all
sudo dnf makecache

We search the repositories to see which packages are available for installation.

Instalamos el rpm con el siguiente comando: sudo dnf install oracle-ai-database-preinstall-26ai

3. software installation software database creation.
