Re: Cloning Oracle versus Installing from OUI

I do not understand why you, as a dba, need to install software on a server. This is the job of the server administrator. 

Does anyone agree with this?  Do sys admins install Oracle
these days?


In my previous job, it was the sysadmin who did the
Oracle install.  Mainly because it was me and I was
the dba as well...

but in most cases I know of, the dbas do the oracle
installs.  In close collaboration with the sysadmins,
of course: the sheer number of patches that needs to
be installed/verified in most Unix and Linux sites
precludes any other solution.
