To install Oracle 10g on Solaris 10 do the following:

• Add the SUNWi15cs and the SUNWi1cs packages.
• Create the needed groups:

groupadd -g 100 oinstall
groupadd -g 101 dba

• Create the oracle user:

useradd -u 100 -g 100 -G 101 -d /data/oracle -m -s /bin/tcsh oracle

• Create the oracle project:

projadd oracle

• Edit /etc/user_attr and add the following:

oracle::::project=oracle

• Set the max.shm.memory and max.sem.ids for the project:

projmod -s -K "project.max-shm-memory=(priv,4gb,deny)" oracle
projmod -s -K "project.max-sem-ids=(priv,100,deny)" oracle

• Edit /etc/system and add the following:

set noexec_user_stack=1

• Reboot
• Install ORACLE using the installer by running the following:

./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs

• Enjoy

1. Find the device names of the source and destination drives:
format < /dev/null

2. run the following sh script:
SRC=c0t0d0
DEST=c0t1d0
MOUNTDIR=/clone
SLICES="s0 s1 s2 s3 s4"
mkdir ${MOUNTDIR}
prtvtoc /dev/rdsk/${SRC}s2 > /tmp/vtoc
fmthard -s /tmp/vtoc /dev/rdsk/${DEST}s2
installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/${DEST}s2
# OR installboot /usr/platform/`uname -i`/lib/fs/ufs/bootblk /dev/rdsk/${DEST}s0
for i in $SLICES; do
newfs /dev/dsk/${DEST}${i} < /dev/null
mount /dev/dsk/${DEST}${i} ${MOUNTDIR}
cd ${MOUNTDIR}
ufsdump 0f - /dev/dsk/${SRC}${i}| ufsrestore rf -
cd /
umount ${MOUNTDIR}
done
rmdir ${MOUNTDIR}
rm /tmp/vtoc

In order to update Solaris 10 with the latest OS updates the following is needed to be done:

1. Create a file /tmp/registration.properties with the following:
userName=sunusername
password=sunpassword
hostName=
subscriptionKey=
portalEnabled=false
proxyHostName=
proxyPort=
proxyUserName=
proxyPassword=

2. Run the following command:
sconadm register -a -r /tmp/registration.properties

3. To perform the update do the following:
smpatch update
