Introduction

In this article, I will cover how to resolve the supportedOSCheck error in Oracle Linux 8.10 issue, which I faced during GRID and Oracle Home Installation.

Note: – If you want to practice this whole activity in your home lab, then you'll need a platform to perform the installation. To set that up, you first need to download and install Oracle VirtualBox, followed by the operating system, the Oracle binary software, and finally, create the database.

Cause

We have faced this [INS-08101] supportedOSCheck error during the time of installing Single Instance Oracle on ASM in Oracle 19c.

Solution

To resolve this issue, you need to put the following entries for both GRID and Oracle HOME before starting the GUI utility.

GRID HOME

a) cd /u01/app/19.0.0.0/gridhome_1/cv/admin

b) cp cvu_config cvu_config_bkp

c) vi cvu_config

# Fallback to this distribution id
CV_ASSUME_DISTID=OEL8

Note:- This forces Cluster Verification Utility (CVU) to assume your OS is Oracle Linux 8, even if it’s 8.10.

d) cd /u01/app/19.0.0.0/gridhome_1

e) ./gridSetup.sh

In case you are facing the same issue supportedOSCheck error in Oracle Linux 8.10 for Oracle Binaries Installation as well, then you can use the following steps to resolve the error.

Oracle Home

a) cd /u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0.0/dbhome_1/cv/admin

b) cp cvu_config cvu_config_bkp

c) vi cvu_config

# Fallback to this distribution id
CV_ASSUME_DISTID=OEL8

d) cd /u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0.0/dbhome_1

e) ./runInstaller

Conclusion

We can follow the above steps to resolve the supportedOSCheck error in Oracle Linux 8.10 issue.
