INTERNATIONAL - Oracle Technology Network Developer Day -Updated

Welcome to the Oracle Technology Network Developer Day - Hands-on Database Application Development hands-on lab (HOL) installation instructions. This is a bring-your-own-laptop workshop; this document describes how to install a virtual guest appliance that provides pre-configured Oracle software for your use while working on the HOLs.

This Database Development Appliance is necessary for completing the Hands on Labs in the Java, Apex and Database Development tracks - you will not need it for the .Net Track.

Please note that this appliance is for testing purposes only, as such it is unsupported and should not to be used in production environment. This virtual machine contains:

Oracle Enterprise Linux 5,  Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Enterprise Edition, Oracle TimesTen In-Memory Database cache, Oracle XML DB, Oracle SQL Developer, Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler, Oracle Application Express 4.0, Oracle JDeveloper, Hands-On-Labs (accessed via the Toolbar Menu in Firefox)

Requirements

-At least 2GB RAM

-At least 15GB of free space (Note: virtualization works best with contiguous space so it is a good idea if on Windows to run a defrag program, and make sure you are using NTFS for your file system to handle large files on Windows. )

-2GHz Processor (a lesser processor will be acceptable but slower)

-Mozilla Firefox 2.0 or higher, Internet Explorer 7 or higher, Safari 3.0 and higher or Google Chrome 1.0 or higher

-Adobe Acrobat reader

Step 1. Download and install Oracle VM VirtualBox on your host system.

Step 2. Download the files:

Oracle Developer Days.ovf (93,494 bytes, md5sum: 84ccbd711972e3907fd85bd665aae762)

 http://download.oracle.com/otn/other/OTN_DD_ROOT.vmdk (1,261,391,872 bytes, md5sum: e332cb5c23e3d70ffc09c8386aa9fca5)

Step 3. Download and re-assemble the files:

 http://download.oracle.com/otn/other/OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk.001 (2,097,152,000 bytes, md5sum: 06012abd8b3ba7620a271825aa85d0d9)

 http://download.oracle.com/otn/other/OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk.002 (840,474,624 bytes, md5sum: 406491621b62e7fc419bad398f463d7f)

Linux:

- Download all files, preserving filenames

- Download the .sh file and execute OR run command:

cat OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk.001 OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk.002 > OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk

Windows:

- Download all files, preserving filenames

- Download the .bat file and execute OR from command line, run:

copy /B OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk.001 + OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk.002 OTN_DD_ORACLE.vmdk

Step 4. Import your VM: File > Import Appliance to launch Appliance Import Wizard. Click Choose... to browse to the directory you re-assembled all the files in and select the OTN Developer Days.ovf then click Next> to begin importing the virtual machine. It will prompt you to agree to the appropriate developer licenses while importing. You will see 'Oracle Developer Days (Powered Off)' when it is finished importing.

Step 5. Test your VM: Once the import has completed, double-click the OTN Developer Days VM. Click OK to close the Virtualbox Information dialogs. When you get to the Enterprise Linux 5 screen you can now login. (Username and password is oracle.) Allow the process to complete; it is ready when you see a terminal window, which you can close. Once you are finished working in the guest VM you can shut it down via System > Shut Down; this will return the guest VM to the Powered Off state.
