You can use 32-Bit media for installing Oracle Database Client on all supported operating systems. You can use 64-Bit media for installing Oracle Database Client on all supported 64-bit x64 operating systems. This guide is for both Windows 32-Bit and Windows x64. This chapter covers the following topics:

3.1 Preinstallation Considerations Before Installing Oracle Database Client

Instant Client Features. Free to download, deploy and distribute. Small footprint. ZIPs available for quick, one-step install. RPM Packages also available for Linux, and DMG Packages for macOS. Same libraries as full Oracle Database or Oracle Client. Includes tools such as SQL.Plus, SQL.Loader and Data Pump. Widely used and tested.

The Oracle Database Client software is available on the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) Web site. In most cases, you use the graphical user interface (GUI) provided by Oracle Universal Installer to install the software. However, you can also use Oracle Universal Installer to complete silent-mode installations using response files, without using the GUI.

Review the information in Chapter 1, 'Oracle Database Client Installation Overview' and complete the tasks listed in Chapter 2, 'Oracle Database Client Preinstallation Requirements' before beginning the installation.

Next, consider the following issues:

3.1.1 Installation Consideration on Windows Vista and Later

On Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2012, and Windows Server 2012 R2, command prompts should be opened with Administrator privileges.

3.1.2 Installing Oracle Database Client Installations in Silent or Response File Mode

If you need to perform multiple installations of Oracle Database Client, you may want to use silent or response file mode, with response files. In these modes, at each computer, you run Oracle Universal Installer from the command line using a response file. The response file is a text file containing the settings you normally enter in the Oracle Universal Installer GUI dialog boxes. This method lets you quickly perform multiple installations using similar settings for each computer.

See Also:

Appendix B, 'Installing Oracle Database Client Using Response Files' for instructions on performing silent or response file mode installations

3.1.3 Creating the Oracle Base Directory

If you install Oracle Database Client on a computer with no other Oracle software installed, Oracle Universal Installer creates an Oracle base directory for you. If Oracle software is already installed, one or more Oracle base directories already exist. In the latter case, Oracle Universal Installer offers you a choice of Oracle base directories into which you can install Oracle Database Client.

You are not required to create an Oracle base directory before installation, but you can do so if you want.

Note:

You can choose to create a new Oracle base directory, even if other Oracle base directories exist on the system.

3.1.4 Installing Oracle Database Client into Multiple Oracle Homes

You can install all Oracle components in multiple Oracle homes on the same computer. However, some components can only support one active instance at a time. This means that the current (latest) installation renders the previous one inactive. These components are:

  • Oracle Administration Assistant for Windows

  • Oracle Counters for Windows Performance Monitor

  • Oracle Objects for OLE on Windows 32-bit

  • Oracle Provider for OLE DB

Note:

Oracle Objects for OLE is not supported on Windows x64.

3.1.5 Installing Oracle Database Client on a System with an Existing Oracle Software

Oracle Database Client can be installed in the same Oracle Database home if both products are at the same release level. For example, you can install Oracle Database Client 10g Release 2 (10.2) into an existing Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2) home. If you apply a patch set before installing the client, then you must apply the patch set again. Oracle Universal Installer will prompt you for an Oracle home directory, whether you have other Oracle software installed on the computer or not. You cannot install products from one release of Oracle Database Client into an Oracle home directory of a different release. For example, you cannot install Oracle Database 11g release 1 (11.1) software into an existing Oracle9i Oracle home directory.

You can install this release more than once on the same system as long as each installation is installed in a separate Oracle home directory.

3.1.6 Updating the Existing Software with the Current Version

Use the In-Place Upgrade feature to upgrade an existing client installation to the latest release by installing the new client software into an existing client home with the same installation type. For example, if release 11.2.0.1 is installed, then use Oracle Universal Installer to upgrade to release 11.2.0.2.

Consider the following before selecting this option:

  • This upgrade is only possible in a client home and not in any other Oracle home that contains non-client installations, such as Database installations.

  • This upgrade does not delete files in the client home that are commonly updated by other users. For example, configuration data files.

  • This upgrade cannot be performed if processes associated with the Oracle Database Client home are running.

This functionality is available starting with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2).
