I'm trying to install packages for oracle 11 requirement and can not install i686 packges .

Ideally, you should be able to resolve the problem with these two commands:

yum clean all
yum install glibc.i686

One troubleshooting tip might be to try

yum search libc.so.6

These links might also help:

ADDENDUM:

You posted this additional information:

yum install glibc.i686 Loaded plugins: product-id, security, subscription-manager Updating certificate-based repositories.
No package glibc.i686 available. Error: Nothing to do

This means that none of your currently configured repos happen to have the 32-bit glibc runtime.

If you have the RedHat DVD, try this:

  • The error message `No package glibc.i686 available` helps - thank you. You need to find a repo that has the 32-bit glibc runtime, and add it to your /etc/yum.d config. See my updated above. – paulsm4 Sep 01 '17 at 22:16
