Configuration of network for virtualbox and RAC is always making a lot of trouble and raises many questions. In this article I’ll show how to setup network for RAC 11G, 12C using dnsmasq.
Objectives to complete:
In case you need to assign new name “new_host_name” for your host execute following steps
1. Modify “/etc/hosts” file to contain a fully qualified name for the server.
<IP-address> <fully-qualified-machine-name> <machine-name>
Enter following data to “/ect/hosts”
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 192.168.0.50 new_host_name.dbaora.com new_host_name
2. Modify “/etc/sysconfig/network” file
NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=new_host_name.dbaora.com
3. Reboot your machine
Have a fun 🙂

This article presents how to install Centos 6.
I assume you have already downloaded Centos Linux 6 64 bit(about 3.5 G) and you know how to use VirtualBox 64 bit(100M) which is available on OTN. Create virtual machine with default settings for Centos Linux 64 bit. 1GB ram and 32G for disk is enough to run Centos 6 64-bit. Rest of options you can keep default – however I usually increase memory for graphic card to 128M, enable 3D acceleration and set processor to 2.
