APPS R12 File system structure

In this blog I will show you the new R-12 file system tree structure.

R-12_filesystem.JPG

As you can see in above tree structure, we have db, apps and inst as top level dir's

Under DB we have tech_st which is DB home and apps_st which holds DB datafiles.

Under apps, again we have tech_st which holds 1012 and 1013 homes, and apps_st holds APPL_TOP and OAD_TOP.

And finally inst which mainly stores instance specific files including runtime files, log files and configuration files

Note: If image is not been displayed fully, you can save the image to your desktop and open locally to see the full size image.

Rima:

Thanks Mukund for giving such a clear idea about R12 file system. but has one query.you said Under DB we have tech_st which is DB home and apps_st which holds DB datafiles. Is this DB home same as ORACLE_HOME which a database consists of ? means if we log in to Database tier and fire command echo $ORACLE_HOME will it give the same location which we will get by typing pwd in tech_st of DB top?

Mukund:

If you login to database tire and say echo $ORACLE_HOME you may get some thing like
/u01/R12TR2/db/tech_st/10.2.0

So in tech_st folder you will find one more folder called 10.2.0

Mukund
