Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Unorthodox 8i install/upgrade
I have installed 8.1.7 on a Tru64 5.1 system. I simply copied the CD's into
separate directories on
our NFS mounts, then logged into the system where I wanted to do the
install, found the
installer program, and ran it. I don't remember there being any problems.
I did the same thing when I went to patch 8.1.7, I untarrred the patch onto
my NFS mount,
then I could apply the patch to any of my systems from one central location.

Tru64 V5.1 on Alpha 4100/8100
ORA 8.0.6
I have upgraded our sandbox system to 8.1.7.2 last month, and will be
upgrading several other machines shortly. The problem is the stage &
ORACLE_HOME mount points have insufficient disk space and our systems folks
have told me that it will be very difficult to add any more space to these
mount points. There are other mount points that currently have enough
space, so my questions are, has anyone done a 8i/UNIX install/upgrade from a
directory other than under /oracle/stage, or used a symbolic link to
download the CD's contents to another directory? Or broken out the
ORACLE_HOME subdirectories onto more than one mount point? Any suggestions
would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
