This article presents how to quickly install Oracle Database 11G Release 2 (11.2.0.3) and as Oracle Grid 11G Release 2(11.2.0.3) on Windows.
Check article for new release Install Oracle 12C Release 1 (12.1) on Windows 7, 8
Software used:
- Oracle Database 11G Release 2(11.2.0.3) – 64 bit for Windows
- Oracle Grid 11G Release 2(11.2.0.3) – 64 bit for Windows
- Windows 8 Pro 64 bit
You can download Oracle Database 11G Release 2(11.2.0.3) and Oracle Grid 11G Release 2(11.2.0.3). You can download them on Oracle support formerly MetaLink.
Hardware and software requirements for database and grid software:
- at least 4GB ram as minimum, 20G space for binaries and 40G for ASM devices
- Windows Server 2003 – all x64 editions
- Windows Server 2003 R2 – all x64 editions
- Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
- Windows Vista x64 – Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions
- Windows Server 2008 x64 and Windows Server 2008 R2 x64 – Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, and Foundation editions

Windows 8 Support
Starting with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.4), Oracle Database server and client are supported on Windows 8. Oracle RAC is not supported on Windows 8.
In case you are not planning to install grid 2GB ram is enough.
This installation was done for 11.2.0.3 on Windows 7 but with release 11.2.0.4 it’s possible on Windows 8.
ASM devices
To run ASM on Windows you need to create at least one RAW logical partition. For this presentation I have created 2 logical partitions each 20GB using diskpart.exe program.
RAW means not formated partition and without assigned letter.
Another option is to use “Computer management” interface which is user graphical interface. It includes “Disk management” tool to manage partitions.
It’s just example for diskpart.exe
1. List available disks on computer. There is only one disk with 40GB free space.
2. As first step you need to select disk before making any changes on it. In my case there is only one disk so it’s not necessary step but I wanted to show how to do it.
3. List partitions. There is only one primary partition on disk.
4. Add new extended partition and 2 logical partitions.
5. Verify new partitions.

Install grid software
This presentation shows how to install grid software as standalone version which is nice to have to find out how ASM works. Unzip grid binaries to a directory and run setup.exe.
1. You should see following screen. Select “Skip software updates” and click “Next” button.
2. Select “Configure Oracle Grid Infrastructure for Standalone Server” and click “Next” button.
3. Select language and click “Next” button.
4. It’s time to create ASM diskgroup DATA. First you need to make created earlier partitions with diskpart.exe visible by ASM binaries. Click “Stamp Disk” button.
5. It will start asmtool. The tool is used to stamp devices(partitions) to be visible by Oracle binaries. Stamp means write some raw informations on the beginning of selected partition. Click “Next” button. Ye ye ye my bad “Dalej” ;). I use Polish windows :).
6. Select device which you want to stamp and enter label “DATA” for it. Then click “Next” button.
7. ASM will see this partition as “ORCLDISKDATA0”. Just click “Next” button.
8. Just click “OK”(Polish “Zakoncz”) button.
9. Repeat step 5,6,7,8 for another device and stamp it with label “BACKUP”. Once it’s done you should see 2 devices. Select redundancy to “External” and select device “ORCLDISKDATA0” and click “Next” button.
10. From security point of view you should specify separate password for user SYS and ASMSNMP. I set for both user the same password. Click “Next” button.
11. On this screen you can specify directory for grid binaries. If you have already some Oracle binaries it makes sense to select already defined Oracle Base.
12. Summary screen just before installation begin. Click “Install” button.
13. Boring installation … Vmware workstation 11 windows 10 install.
15. Installation completed. Just click “Close” button.
ASM configuration assistant ASMCA
So far we have created only one ASM group DATA. I want to show how-to quickly add extra group to ASM instance.
1. Run “Automatic Storage Management Configuration Assistant” from Windows menu. Once it’s started click “Create” button.
2. Enter disk group name BACKUP, select redundancy to “External”, check checkbox for “.ORCLDISKBACKUP0″ device and click “OK” button.
3. Soon new disk group should be created.
4. Two ASM disk groups “BACKUP” and “DATA” should be visible. Click “Exit” button.
Verify in sqlplus that two ASM diskgroups exist.

18. Select “Oracle Automatic Storage Management” to install database on ASM devices and enter password for user ASMSNMP(the password was defined during grid binaries installation). If you have skipped ASM grid installation select first option “File System” and specify directory where database files should be installed.
19. Here you can define automatic backups and directory or ASM where backups should be stored. Once you are happy with your selection click “Next” button.
20. Select diskgroup “DATA” for database datafiles. click “Next” button.
