When installation is almost complete, you are prompted to run two scripts, orainstRoot.sh and root.sh, as root. This is shown in Figure A-3.
Hi guys,
as instructed by the OUI, one have to execute the 2 script purely as ROOT.
is it possible to sudo su - from oracle (software owner) as Root and execute the 2 scripts.
What is the purpose OUI is asking to start a new terminal and login as ROOT.
Sorry i am quite new to this sudo thing.
But for cloning and installation of GI and rdbms home , database , is it advisable to login as a user and sesudo su - (to root, or oracle)
think it all depend on the /etc/sudoers file configuration?
i am more use to just login as the oracle account and the root account for the task. But bum into a environment which is more restricted so i am not too sure will i bum into any error because of sudo -ing here and there.
