Am doing my first install of OEM Cloud Control - v 13.2 on Oracle Linux 7.
I've created my repository database with a standard ORACLE_HOME of '/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0.2/dbhome_1', with ORACLE_BASE at '/u01/app/oracle'.
Now I need to decide on directories for "Middleware Home Location" and "Agent Base directory". The installation guide is using '/u01/software/em13c/oraclehome' and '/u01/software/em13c/gc_inst', respectively. But it seems to me that it would make more sense to "anchor' them under $ORACLE_BASE, say at '/u01/app/oracle/product/em13c/oraclehome' and ''/u01/app/oracle/product/em13c/gc_inst'.
It may seem like I'm obsessing over names, but I've been in this business a long time an know that "just names" can make life easy or difficult because they *do* tend to convey information and assumptions. I don't want to paint myself into a corner.
