12c 应答方式安装数据库的一点补充already exists. Specify another SID

今天删除数据库时采用了drop database语句，从新安装时遇到错误：“The Oracle system identifier(SID) "cdb" already exists. Specify another SID.”，该错误是因为删除时候没有清理/etc/oratab文件，该文件中记录了之前数据库的启动信息。

手工清理这行信息问题解决，下面还原操作过程

删除可插拔数据库

SYS@cdb > shutdown immediate;

SYS@cdb > startup mount restrict;

SYS@cdb > drop database;

重新创建可插拔数据库

[oracle@snow response]$ dbca -silent -createDatabase -responseFile /home/oracle/orainst/12.1.0.1/database/response/cdb_pdb.rsp

Enter SYS user password:

Enter SYSTEM user password:

Enter PDBADMIN User Password:

Look at the log file "/u01/app/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbca/cdb.log" for further details.

查看错误日志提示没删除“干净”

[oracle@snow response]$ more /u01/app/oracle/cfgtoollogs/dbca/cdb.log

The Oracle system identifier(SID) "cdb" already exists. Specify another SID.

/ has enough space. Required space is 8260 MB , available space is 25210 MB.

File Validations Successful.

问题出现在/etc/oratab文件中，看看里面的内容还包含之前数据库实例的启动信息。手动将其清除，再次尝试安装。

$ cat /etc/oratab |grep cdb

cdb:/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0.1/db_1:N

$ cat /etc/oratab | grep cdb

# cdb:/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0.1/db_1:N <==注释掉

清除上述问题后重试成功

[oracle@snow response]$ dbca -silent -createDatabase -responseFile /home/oracle/orainst/12.1.0.1/database/response/cdb_pdb.rsp

Enter SYS user password:

Enter SYSTEM user password:

Enter PDBADMIN User Password:
