4Change directory:

cd /usr/local/bin

5Copy the installation files from the CD to the hard drive, changing the CD as prompted:

cd /var/mcp/db/install

7Run the installation script:

./installOracle.pl

•For small (2-server) configurations, enter [4] for x3550 Micro.

•For medium (4-server) configurations, enter [5] for x3550 Standard.

Warning messages can appear. These messages are normal and no action is required.

10When prompted, choose to have the installer remove the installation files. Nortel recommends that the installation files be removed to conserve disk space.
