Checking Network Configuration requirements

Hi All,

This is my first time here and I am a new user for Linux and Oracle installation.
I installed Oracle Unbreakable Linux 5.4 64bit on IBM X3500 M2 Machine.
I have configured my static IP address at the time of Linux Installtion

After installing all the pre requirements for the Oracle 10g R2 installation I was stopped with a warning on the Oracle univesal Installer - product specific Prerequisite check.

This is what it gave me---
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Checking Network Configuration requirements..
Check complete. The overall results of this check is : Not executed <<<
Recomendation : Oracle supports installation on systems with DHCP-assigned public IP addresses. However the primary network interface on the system should be configured with a Static IP Address in order for the oracle to function properly.See the installation guide for more details on installing the software on systems configured with DHCP.
-------------------------------------------------------------------

I have checked with the manuals and do not find any information about how to fix it.

Please let me suggest the best possible solutions

Thanks for your help!!

you are probably using the default network card.


fill in the fields that are in parentesis and replace "/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0" there should be no parentesis when you are done

with this content

DEVICE=eth0
BROADCAST=(first 3 sets of numbers here from your IP IE x.x.x).255
IPADDR=(ip address here x.x.x.x )
NETMASK=255.255.255.0 (this is your subnet mask)
NETWORK=(first 3 sets of numbers here x.x.x.x).0
GATEWAY=(Gateway here x.x.x.x )
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet


SAMPLE:


DEVICE=eth0
BROADCAST=10.20.30.255
IPADDR=10.20.30.50
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
NETWORK=10.20.30.0
GATEWAY=10.20.30.1
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
