Continuing the review of the installation prerequisites, necessary inputs to the checking process are listed in the prerequisite.xml file located in the oraInventory/logs directory. After the checker is run, its results, along with the pre-defined inputs, are written to the prerequisite_results.xml file in the same location. The prerequisite_results.xml file can be reused as an input file for later executions of the checker process.

Regardless of the platform being used, minimum system requirements exist:

• A minimum of 512 MB of memory
   

• Sufficient paging Space and Disk space
   

• Operating system with up-to-date service packs or patches
   

• Correct file system format

The installer software will adjust any operating system variables needed for the Oracle database server. The OUI will provide guidance through a series of questionnaires and accept responses on software installation and database creation. The following questions apply to all the platforms.
