Re: fwd: Sun box, existing Oracle instance, need to add

You need the CD to install Oracle Software (that's only once). Although the install process does create an instance for you, the others you could create yourself, as many as you want as long as you have enough resources.

I could find only this document on Metalink, but it's for Win NT. You'll get some idea at least to incorporate it on Sun.

Note:68720.1

A few Hints:
Win-NT: <ORACLE_HOME>\database
UNIX: <ORACLE_HOME>/dbs

Win-NT: <ORACLE_HOME\net80
UNIX: <ORACLE_HOME>/network
