Hi,
Currently Database ownership lies with user ORACLE ( oracle:dba)

 to change this owership to user ORAEXT ( oraext:dbaext)

to use the existing file system mount points with changing the ownership and start the database from it. 

Is it possible to start the existing database from the new oracle home with the below steps?

install new oracle binaries using oraext:dbaext . Copy all the required files in the new oracle home.
Shutdown database
modify oratab with new oracle home details.
change the Database File system ownership to oraext:dbaext from oracle:dba
Start the database from the new oracle home.

Howdy, Stranger!
