Make sure to have Operating System CD (Here Oracle Linux 5) in the CD drive. We will explain this later while assigning IP in Linux. On next Summary screen click on “ Create” to create the Virtual Machine.Ĭlick on Network.

On Summary screen click on “ Create” to create the Virtual Disk.

Provide a location with at least 300 GB available space. So we have to choose between the trade-offs. Note: This of course makes VM a bit slower initially during the installation (compared to Fixed size) since in this case the VM needs to keep on increasing the disk size as we move with the installation. This will allow us to keep the VM disk size according to the actual usage. Next screen we will select “ Dynamically allocated” storage. Since we want our VM Disks to be compatible with VMWare as well, we will use VMDK file type. Select “ Startup Disk” and “ Create new hard disk“. Note: We will provide the JVM tuning tricks with copy of our config files to fit everything in our RAM setup. We had finished the final step by increasing to 10GB RAM and 12 GB swap file. Click Next. In order to start all services in the final stage it is recommended to keep 9-10GB. We have tested with 3 GB RAM and double swap till install phase. In Memory screen, select at least 3 GB memory. Provide any name for this VM and select Linux/Oracle (64 bit) for the OS Type. The whole installation was going in text mode and later also it was not able to shift to GUI mode. Important Note: We are using Linux 5 because somehow Oracle Linux 6 (update 2) is not working with VirtualBox for us as it was not able to launch GUI mode. If you are installing on your Windows machine then download the software for Windows. Select “ Oracle Linux” and “ x86 64 bit“.
