Directory Structure for two or more versions

[kburrows]

Hello everyone,

I was in need of help setting up a filesystem in UNIX where I am running two versions (806) & (816).

What kind of filesystems did you create?

Does anyone have a good directory structure?

I see an ofa standard disk layout, but is there some kind of standard filesystem for two or more versions?

Thanks again,
Kathy

The OFA gives you guidelines to have one or more versions.
That's why you have "product/806" and "product/816"
So you could have.
/u01/app/oracle/product/806
/816
And they can be mounted in different logical volumes ..say.. 1.5Gb each one (could be 1G)
Don't forget to set right the oratab and execute oraenv so you don't have to set ORACLE_HOME everytime you enter; or you can create 2 users beside oracle, i.e. oracle80 and oracle8i
