Critical Patch Update - July 2008

CPU Patch for July released

SQL Server 2005 Vs Oracle 11g

orainstRoot and root.sh

Why do you run orainstRoot and ROOT.SH once you finalize the Installation?

orainstRoot.sh needs to be run to change the Permissions and groupname to 770 and to dba.

Root.sh (ORACLE_HOME) location needs to be run to create a ORATAB in /etc/oratab or /opt/var/oratab in Solaris and to copy dbhome, oraenv and coraenv to /usr/local/bin.

orainstRoot.sh

[root@oracle11g ~]# /u01/app/oraInventory/orainstRoot.sh

Changing permissions of /u01/app/oraInventory to 770.

Changing groupname of /u01/app/oraInventory to dba.

The execution of the script is complete
