Hello all,
I am running RAC on Linux RHEL 8 servers. Our admins have /tmp mounted with the “noexec” option:
tmpfs on /tmp type tmpfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noexec,seclabel)
This causes problems with installs and when running opatchauto. My admins state:
CIS compliance says /tmp should always be "noexec". Any procedure that tries to run executables from /tmp or /var/tmp is a bad procedure.
They have given me a temporary workaround, but I'm looking for a more permanent way to run opatchauto without /tmp. I looked at the opatchauto apply options but did not see anything that stood out that would help.
Regards,
Nicole
