The Specify Installation Location step appears, as shown in Figure
2-7
. You created
/u01/app
for Oracle Database, so enter
/u01/app/oracle
for the Oracle base
directory. The installer will determine the Oracle home according to the Optimal
Flexible Architecture (OFA). Out-of-place upgrades have always been a best-practice
recommendation, but starting with Oracle Database 11.2.0.2, patch set installations are all
out of place by default. So you may prefer to enter the full version in the path, such as
/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.3/dbhome_1
.
