I'm not sure whether it's me or Oracle that is daft (although I'll gladly accept psychotropic prescriptions when dealing with 9iAS), but are they now calling things "instances" that don't have databases associated with them? That's how I'm reading metalink note 243561.1, where they talk about "installed on BOTH Infrastructure AND Mid-Tier instances." Or is it just weird for me because I'm trying to do it on one box? Or did I lose an instance somewheres? Or is there some different definition of home and instance on windows?
