<os-name> links

During installation, symbolic links are created, typically in /usr/bin and /etc, so that Oracle Secure Backup users do not need to change their search paths. You can modify this behavior as follows:

These parameters are particular to each supported platform. On some systems, it may be more appropriate to place links in /bin instead of /usr/bin or in /usr/etc instead of /etc.

This parameter must be followed by three values, in the order shown:

  1. The name of the directory in which to create the bin link.

  2. The name of the directory in which to create the etc link.

  3. The name of the directory in which to create the lib link.

os-name is a placeholder for linux or solaris64.


Note:

Oracle recommends using the defaults provided for this parameter.

Table B-10 os-name links: Parameters and Values

Parameter Meaning

linux links

Specifies the directories where symbolic links are created for Linux hosts. The default directory list is /usr/bin /etc /lib.

solaris64 links

Specifies the directories where symbolic links are created for Solaris 64-bit hosts. The default directory list is /usr/bin /etc /lib.



Note:

If the obparameters file specifies a lib directory for the operating system type of the current installation, then installob creates a libobk.so symbolic link in that directory. That symbolic link points to the actual libobk.so file in a platform-specific lib directory in the Oracle Secure Backup home (such as .lib.linux32).
