RUNINSTALLER OUI_HOSTNAME

[Former Member]

Hello

I wander how to run RUNINSTALLER (as part of oracle upgrade)in an cluster Service guard environment. Maybe using  OUI_HOSTNAME switch.

This way we were installing  SAP i.e. sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME <short name>

as we used short name for sapinst I guess  OUI_HOSTNAME should be used also with  <short name>. However I tried it and got " Unable to create directory  /oracle" (which is missleading as it already exists)

Kindest regards

Hello Jan

The RUNINSTALLER is executed to install the Oracle database software.

You should run this script on the node where the database is running.

Hi,

You must be running your runinstaller on db mounted host, in this case no separate parameter is required.

Let me know if my understanding is incorrect!
