Subject: Oracle Home naming (and out-of-place patching)
Metalink Note: 1189783.1 speaks of out-of-place upgrading and patching.
I'm wonder if it might be a good idea to change the oracle home naming
conventions to use four or five digits under product directory, out-of-place
patching being a driving factor.
Examples:
/orasoft/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
/orasoft/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2/dbhome_1
/orasoft/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2.1/dbhome_1
I was wondering what a sampling of opinions would produce from this list.
Five digits would represent PSU patching. In my case, once the oratab file is
updated, everything else (scripts, etc), will set environment correctly, so no
issues there.
