make command and ins_rdbms.mk file

John_75May 24 2012 — edited Oct 10 2012
RDBMS version : 11.2
os : UNIX/Unix Like

To enable a component in Oracle RDBMS , we usually run make command.
For example to enable partitioning , we run
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib
$ make -f ins_rdbms.mk part_on
What does make command do ? What is inside ins_rdbms.mk file?

One more question :
in 11.2 , for enabling partitioning, can I skip the above steps and use new chopt utility
like:
shutdown  all database 
 chopt enable partitioning
start  all database.
