It's not clear what your concern is with Oracle 11g install...is it
because you want to keep it online? If so, you will have to have some
downtime regardless of the method of upgrade (i.e. DVD upgrade or
preupgrade). Perhaps a yum upgrade would give you the least amount of
downtime but I would think that during the time that yum is
processing/installing, performance from the Oracle server would be
miserable.

If you have other concerns regarding upgrading a system with Oracle, you
probably would want to be more specific.

Craig

In the past, every time the Oracle server machine was upgraded, the
process was to do a full (cold) database backup; A complete OS install; A
complete Oracle install; then a full database restore.

Very, very time consuming and always the question - What was missed? It's
not a requirement to stay online, but a real great advancement would be to
go from 2-days to 4-hours!
