Abstract
Oracle installations of the past can be large, complex, and cumbersome. The Oracle database administrator (DBA) plans and performs the installation because he or she knows how to troubleshoot and address problems as they arise through the steps. There are several configuration and installation options that need to be reviewed, so installing the Oracle software (binaries) is a task that requires proficiency by every DBA. Now with Oracle 18c and even with 12c, Oracle software installations have become more automated, but understanding the steps and configurations of installing is going to be important for the DBA. The installation of the Oracle binaries should be repeatable for large environments, and the DBA needs to set up the installs to be able to provision databases on-demand and consistently.
