2.10.5 Installing on NFS-Mounted Storage

To run Oracle Application Server on NFS systems, you have to use a certified
NFS-mounted storage system.
Currently Oracle Application Server is certified to run on these NFS systems:
Network Appliance (NetApp) filers
■
The NetApp system should be exported to at least the remote install user and remote
root user. You can do this using exportfs command:
prompt> exportfs -i /vol/vol1
Before installing, verify that the NFS mount setuid permission is set to suid. The
nosuid option will cause the install to fail.
To check the latest certification list for any updates, visit Oracle Technology Network
(http://www.oracle.com/technology).

2.10.6 Running Multiple Instances from One Installation

Oracle Application Server components are intended to be run only on the computer
where they are installed. You cannot run the components on remote computers, even
though the computers can access the files through NFS.

installer. Refer to the X emulator documentation for instructions on
how to change the color model or visual settings.
Although other computers can access OracleAS files installed on Computer A,
they should not run OracleAS components from that installation. For a computer
to run OracleAS components, it must have its own OracleAS installation.
