oraInventory missing

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have installed XI 3.0 with SP19. I could not find oraInventory in /oracle when i logged in as ora<SID>.

I dont think this is normal. I followed the installation guide provided on SMP.

I am not sure if there was any option during the installation for oraInventory directory creation or something like that.

Can anyone please help me with this.

I got the following info from note - 395521

3. Where do I create the oraInventory directory?

This is determined by setting the ORACLE_BASE environment variable during the initial installation of an Oracle 8.1 database. In the SAP guide, we recommend you place this environment variable on /oracle. If a NON-SAP database was installed first, you should store the oraInventory in /app/oracle, as described in the OFA standard.
