2 Installing Oracle Tuxedo Application Rehosting Workbench Using GUI-Mode Installation

The following sections describe how to install Oracle Tuxedo Application Rehosting Workbench using graphical user interface (GUI) mode installation on UNIX systems:

2.1 What Is GUI-Mode Installation?

The graphical user interface mode installation is the graphics-based method of executing the Oracle Installation program. It can be run on UNIX system.

Note:

To install Oracle Tuxedo Application Rehosting Workbench on a UNIX system with a non-graphics console, use silent install mode.
