Hi Ed,

We have in the past taken the entire oracle_home tree and it worked (same os version patch level) I do not remember the UNIX boys doing any other magic.

                    to ORACLE-L

Given virtually identical Unix machines (i.e., same kernel and patch sets,) is there any reason NOT to take the cowards way out and use a tar file of $ORACLE_HOME from the first client only install (from CD with X-win client) to install to another machine? My original install CD has 'walked'; I could download and cpio ... or wait 3 days for support to get me new CD's. Why shouldn't I use the working installation as a base? Are there any machine specific actions taken by the installer besides obvious tnsnames if you use the installation gui) for client installations ?

TIA
