Products installed in Oracle_home

Hi,
I am really confused about which products can be installed in a same Oracle_Home.
Till now, my understandings are for installation of each product, we need a separate Oracle_Home.
Then what does this line "If two products are built on the same version of the base
libraries, then (theoretically) they can coexist in the same Oracle Home." means?
What are these base libraries?
Can two products reside on a single Oracle_Home?
OUI helps in installation of Oracle products and it comes in CD alongwith the product. So, whether this OUI get installed on each Oracle_Home alongwith the product or
it gets installed in a separate Oracle_Home?
And what happens when we try to install a product using new version of OUI?

You can only have one product in each Oracle Home.
Lets say you have Oracle Database and an Oracle client on your server, then these need their own individual Oracle Homes. This is the same with the clusterware also. It needs its own Oracle Home. From 11.2 onwards ASM also needs its own Oracle Home.
I did not understand what you meant by installing an older product with a newer OUI. When you install Oracle products you generally use the OUI that comes with it. But you can use the same release of OUI as the product that you are trying to install, i.e. you can use the 10.2.0.4 OUI to install the 10.2.0.1 companion CD. I have never tried to use a newer release of the OUI to install an older product i.e. use 11.2.0.1 OUI to install a 10.2 Oracle Server, and i do not know how to do it.

    Hello Anu,
    this information comes from the "Global Inventory".
    Metalinknote #360079.1 describes this:
    Global Inventory
    The Global Inventory is the part of the XML inventory that contains the high level list of all oracle products installed on a machine. There should therefore be only one per machine. Its location is defined by the content of oraInst.loc.
    The Global Inventory records the physical location of Oracle products installed on the machine, such as ORACLE_HOMES (RDBMS and IAS) or JRE. It does not have any information about the detail of patches applied to each ORACLE_HOMEs.
    The Global Inventory gets updated every time you install or de-install an ORACLE_HOME on the machine, be it through OUI Installer, Rapid Install, or Rapid Clone.
    Note: If you need to delete an ORACLE_HOME, you should always do it through the OUI de-installer in order to keep the Global Inventory synchronized.
    Regards
    Stefan

  • Can't install Acrobat X Pro. Error message says I already have a more functional product installed.

    Hi Beth,
    You should not receive this message if you dont have Acrobat 11 installed.

  • Setup has detected you already have a more functional product installed....

    Ok, have adobe standard XI. end user needs Pro to redact sections of pdf's.
    paid 199.00 for digital upgrade from standard to pro. download...execute...
    error on starting setup. setup has detected you already have a more functional product installed....installation will now terminate.    
    I have 2 choices. the Go to hell adobe your product dont work, and process a refund.
    or
    try to get phone technical support.
    Honestly why does adobe make it so difficult to work with them. My company needs digital signatures and i'd never use adobe. Adobe support is the worst in the IT industry imo and apparently their software developers cant determine that Pro is and UPGRADE from standard.
    if anyone understands a work around i'd be interested in hearing but i can't say i've ever had an efficient experience with adobe and i wish i could find an alternative for adobe acrobat pro.

    First you are attempting to install Acrobat Pro XI over Acrobat Standard XI and it's throwing an error that you have a more capable product.  While not the most elegant or even correct message IMHO what it means is that you can't install the same version of Pro over Standard. If they were different versions (ie. Acrobat Pro XI over Acrobat Standard X ) then it would work.   There are good reasons for this installation error, but let us try to get you to the place where you can actually get the work that you need to get done accomplished. 
    You can use a virtual machine like VMWare, VirtualPC, Parallels, or Oracle VirtualBox to host another Windows instance and load Adobe Acrobat Pro on that vm.  These are really the best way to keep things on the same machine and have both as separate usable installations.  In all cases, you provide the Windows installation media. The price of the VM software varies from free to some reasonable prices.   Your choice though.
    VMWare is a purchased product Windows and Mac:  http://www.vmware.com
    Parallels is a purchased product for Mac only:  http://www.parallels.com
    VirtualPC is downloadable from Microsoft at no cost:  http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=3702
    Oracle VirtualBox is downloadable from Oracle at no cost: https://www.virtualbox.org
    And one more thing... you need to contact Adobe Customer service because you should be using the full Acrobat XI installer with a full blown installer Serial Numberand not the upgrade installer with an upgrade serial number.

  • 2 products installed in this Oracle Home

    Our security scanner is indicating that our Oracle 10g install has a vulnerability that should have been address with the install of CPUApr2011.  Our server is patched with every 10g CPU until end of life in Aug 2013, so I know it is a false failure.  But one question that I have is that the opatch lsinventory command indicates that I have 2 products installed in my Oracle home:
    Installed Top-level Products (2):
    Oracle Database 10g                                                                    10.2.0.1.0
    Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Patch Set 4                           10.2.0.5.0a
    There are 2 products installed in this Oracle Home.
    What is that actually telling me?  Do I actually have 2 installs of Oracle in that home?
    Thanks in advance

    You have installed 10.2.0.1.0 released base, and over this 10.2.0.5. You release is 10.2.0.5.
    You can verify this by
    i) from sqlplus execute at command line "sqlplus -version"
    ii) into the database "select * from v$version"

  • Attempting to reinstall Acrobat Pro ver 8. Error: a more functional product installed"

    My computer crashed a few months ago which required reinstalling all software. Acrobat Pro was not showing up on my programs menu yesterday so I assumed I had not reinstalled it. I attempted the installation and received error: "Setup has detected that you already have a more functional product installed. Setup will now terminate."
    Assuming that it was installed, with updates, I decided to uninstall it. It is not listed as an installed program in Control Panel / Programs and Features; however, there is an Acrobat 8.0 folder in Program Files/Adobe. After this didn't work, I uninstalled Adobe Reader 9.0 but it made no difference.
    The following are installed: Adobe AIR, Adobe Captivate 4, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Production Premium, Adobe Creative Suite 4 Web Standard, and Adobe Reader 9.1 (which I reinstalled today).
    I called tech support, but since it is not the current version, have to pay for support. Can anyone help with this problem?
    Thanks!

    You are not supposed to have Reader and Acrobat Pro installed on the same computer. Additionally, your CS 4 Production Premium should have come with Acrobat Pro 9! If that is installed, you should not try to install 8. See if you can fix the installation of CS 4 Production Premium installation to get it to install Acrobat Pro 9. If that is not possible, I'd advise deactivating your Adobe Software, running the CS 4 Cleansscript  and then try re-installing fram scratch.

This is another issue, so please start a new topic for this. The Disk Ordering tab should always show all the disks that are assigned to a VM.
    2- What's the difference between XE and SE? Do they work differently with OVM?XE is the free-to-use, resource-limited version of Oracle DB, which comes with no support.
    3- If using Oracle SE, do I need to configure anything to be able to use it or the installer will automatically configure it? You need to install SE or EE manually first, either on the Manager server or another machine. Once SE is installed, you use the Production installation mode for Oracle VM Manager to connect to the existing SE database.
