During the installation of Oracle 12c (12.1) I encountered the following error:
Error in invoking target 'irman ioracle' of makefile
'/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_1/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk'.
See '/u01/app/oraInventory/logs/installActions2015(...).log' for details.
Inside the logfile the following error is encountered:
INFO: collect2: ld terminated with signal 9 [Killed]
According to metalink doc 2040972.1 this is due to less memory available (in a VM environment).
Need more memory
I indeed had ‘not much’ memory (2GB) for my VM in Oracle VM and after increasing the memory to 3GB and relinking, irman and ioracle where build!
Relink with:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin /usr/bin/make -f $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk ioracle /usr/bin/make -f $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk irman
Happy relinking!
Hello, I am instlling grid control and I am getting this error.
I passed in all requirements.

Helps!
Heeey, I think I found my problem.
I saw in another forum

Thanks Salman for the reply. It was in the end a dumb error that i made .
I had unzipped the oracle grid software on my host machine first (windows) (hoping to save the processing time on the virtual machine) instead of doing it on the VM . In that process, some of the symbolic links that should have been maintained was lost and hence during the linking process i got that error. Its interesting however that there were other symbolic links which was indeed maintained and ran fine during the linking process.
Once i unzipped the files as the grid user inside the VM, the above error went away and i was able to install the grid software successfully.
Thanks again for your response on this.

Anyway you were part of this process. Thanks
Sorry for the late reply, but glad that I could help ;)
Cheers, Ian.
