That is why each oracle home has its own oraInventory directory.

I have 10 different instances across 2 machines. Each instance has its own user id and group.

There have been no problems at all with this setup for 8.1.7.4 and 9.2.0

maybe multi-user oracle homes would be a problem for stuff that's in oracle base such as the inventory.

during an install/upgrade this common data needs to be updated.

i suppose i would work ok if u were careful with permissions, but it would be just one more thing to go wrong.

thanks,

steve

Would you mind expanding on that, other people say the multiple userid idea works for them. They may be surprised one day, I can imagine. I can imagine blowing one's foot off the other way, also.

Thanks.
