Installing Oracle Applications R12.1, Tip #3

My Oracle Applications environment is a split configuration.  I have the db tier on one node and everything else on another node.  It came time for me to stage my db portion on my db node, so I fired up adautostg.pl and attempted to stage just the db software...

Starting AutoStaging at Fri Jan 15 10:11:48 2010
Using adautostg.pl version 120.12


This script allows you to stage Oracle Applications which contains:

    - Database Technology Stack (11g)
    - Database (Vision or Fresh)
    - Applications Technology Stack (10.1.2, 10.1.3)
    - Applications APPL_TOP & COMMON_TOP 


Enter a directory path where the media is to be staged (For example: To create  
the stage area at /u01/StageR12 enter /u01 ) :/mnt/install/OracleApps

The stage area will be created at /mnt/install/OracleApps/StageR12
 
Do you use AutoMount to mount/umount the media y/n [y]?

Enter the Mount Point location [/mnt/cdrom]: /media/cdrom
