Installing by Copying Existing Binaries
• Copy the binaries• Attach the Oracle home• Why do DBAs install the binaries this way?

Upgrading Oracle Software• MOS note 7303365.1• Download the upgrade file• Unzip the upgrade file• Configure the response file• Run the installer
![Page 12: CHAPTER 1 Installing the Oracle Binaries. Introduction to Managing and Safeguarding Your Organization’s Data Efficiently installing Oracle software Create](https://reader038.vdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022100505/5a4d1b4e7f8b9ab0599a69b6/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Upgrading Oracle Software• Upgrade existing Oracle home
versus
• Create new Oracle home• Upgrade new Oracle home
• Advantage of creating and upgrading new Oracle home is that you can leave the old Oracle home binaries in place in case you need to roll back an upgrade.

Summary• Common DBA task is installing, patching, and upgrading
Oracle binaries.• Use the OFA standard to provide consistency with naming
and directory structures.• DBAs should be familiar with efficient methods for
installing Oracle software.• Silent installations provide a consistent and efficient
mechanism for installing Oracle binaries.
