Announcement of echa-oracle cookbook

Chef Infra (archive)

Ohai Chefs,

We’ve just released a cookbook, echa-oracle, that handles the
installation and configuration of the Oracle RDBMS on RHEL and
derivatives (the specific targets are CentOS >= 6.4, and Oracle
11.2). The code is a fork of what we use internally to build
new Oracle boxes, and includes setting up the oracle user,
installing the RDBMS’ binaries and latest patch, and creating
(empty) databases. For details, see the cookbooks’ README.

GitHub repo: https://github.com/echaeu/echa-oracle
On the Community site: http://community.opscode.com/cookbooks/echa-oracle

We hope others in the community will find that cookbook useful!
We intent to expand its scope in the future, first by adding code
to install and configure the OEM Agent.

Any feedback, pull requests, etc. very welcome.

Cheers,

Ari Riikonen

That is awesome!

I wonder if we could convince Eric Wolfe to merge the 'oracle' cookbook
into this one and give you the 'oracle' namespace :slight_smile:

GitHub repo: GitHub - echaeu/echa-oracle: Installs and configures the Oracle Database Enterprise Edition, patches it to the latest version, and creates databases. Oracle binaries are not included with this cookbook.
