Pre-condition: You must have Oracle database software installed and this note is for 10g.
You will only need to create an instance if you don’t already have one or if you wish to create a new instance. Check what you already have using ps -ef |grep ora
1. Make a copy of the response file (dbca.rsp in the installation binary directory, which should be [installation bin dir]/Disk1/response/dbca.rsp).
2. Make a copy: cp dbca.rsp ..
3. Edit the response file with local environment configuration information. The parameters that you should update are:
GDBNAME=”Your_GDBNAME_Value”
SID=”YourSID”
TEMPLATENAME = “New Database”
3. run ONE of the the following two command as Oracle user:
dbca -progress_only -responseFile [response file]
or
dbca -silent -responseFile [response file]
Note: -progress_only option will require graphical display. Set your DISPLAY env parameter if you are working remotely.

Are you asking a NetBeans question or are you asking a DBCA create DB question?
What will be the value for DISPLAY env, if i am connected through remote login/ssh.
thanks
Although your question isn’t related to the blog post, here is what I think you are asking for: Use ssh -X to enable X11 forwarding. With -X option, you don’t have to set DISPLAY env variable until you do something that will change it, such as su to another user. Hope this helps!
How can I sync Oracle Database on SUN? For this case I want the databse in “Active and Stand by” mode. I am not quite sure the procedure and I wanna exchange the trick and knowledge with you all. Thanks

Hi Sameer,
If you are using BASH shell, you can run a command similar to the following:
export DISPLAY=localhost:0.0
Change “localhost” if you are not on the same machine. Change “0.0” if you are not on the default display. You may also need to set the permission:
xhost +
This will allow anyone to connect to your current display. For greater security, you may want to narrow down the permission to a host. Hope this helps.
this is very good command
