Abstract

Many DBAs argue that most Linux/Solaris servers don’t need an X Window System, even when hosting an Oracle database. In fact, previous chapters of this book show that you can manage your Oracle database on a Linux/Solaris server using a text console; you really don’t need a graphical console. In recipes 10-11 and 10-12, you learned how to install the Oracle RDBMS software and how to create an Oracle database without running the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) that requires a graphical display.
