3.1.2 Creating the Inventory Directory UNIX Only
If you are installing on a UNIX system, and if this is the first time any Oracle product is being installed on your system with the Oracle Universal Installer, you will be asked
to provide the location of an inventory directory. This is where the installer will set up subdirectories and maintain inventory data for each Oracle product that is installed on
this system.
Follow the instructions in Table 3–1
