Oracle data properties

The Oracle data properties check Oracle prerequisites such as the version. For
Windows systems only, it uses the Oracle collector. For UNIX systems only, it uses
the UNIX Oracle collectors in the ips_root/UNIX_Linux directory, with the oracle
prefix in their file names. For Window systems only, it uses the Windows Oracle
collectors in the ips_root/lib directory, with the oracle prefix in their file names.
Table 25 outlines the Oracle prerequisite properties. This category of prerequisite
properties require the oracle prefix identifier.
