Specifying a Custom Temporary Directory for Database Provisioning

To specify a temporary directory other than /tmp for placing binaries when provisioning databases, follow these steps:

  1. Log in as a designer, and from the Enterprise menu, select Provisioning and Patching, then select Database Provisioning.
  2. In the Database Procedures page, select the Provision Oracle Database Deployment Procedure and click Create Like.
  3. In the Create Like Procedure page, in the General Information tab, provide a name for the deployment procedure.

    In the Procedure Utilities Staging Path, specify the directory you want to use instead of /tmp, for example, /u01/working.

  4. Click Save.

    Use this deployment procedure for provisioning your Oracle databases.
