3. Set the DISPLAY environment variable on remote_computer to point to local_
computer.
Example (C shell):
remote_computer> setenv DISPLAY local_computer.mydomain.com:0.0
Example (Bourne or Korn shell):
remote_computer> DISPLAY=local_computer.mydomain.com:0.0; export DISPLAY
4. Run the installer. See Section 3.15, "Starting the Oracle Universal Installer" .
2.10.5 Installing on NFS-Mounted Storage
To run Oracle Application Server on NFS systems, you have to use a certified
NFS-mounted storage system.
Currently Oracle Application Server is certified to run on these NFS systems:
■
Network Appliance (NetApp) filers
The NetApp system should be exported to at least the remote install user and remote
root user. You can do this using exportfs command:
prompt> exportfs -i /vol/vol1
Before installing, verify that the NFS mount setuid permission is set to suid. The
nosuid
option will cause the install to fail.
To check the latest certification list for any updates, visit Oracle Technology Network
(

2.10.6 Running Multiple Instances from One Installation
Oracle Application Server components are intended to be run only on the computer
where they are installed. You cannot run the components on remote computers, even
though the computers can access the files through NFS.
Figure 2–2 Run Oracle Application Server Only on the Computer Where It Is Installed
Note: You can use a PC X emulator to run the installer if it
supports a PseudoColor color model or PseudoColor visual. Set the
PC X emulator to use a PseudoColor visual, and then start the
installer. Refer to the X emulator documentation for instructions on
how to change the color model or visual settings.
If OracleAS is installed
on this computer, OracleAS
components must run
on this computer only.
Although other computers can access OracleAS files installed on Computer A,
they should not run OracleAS components from that installation. For a computer
to run OracleAS components, it must have its own OracleAS installation.
