Attention: To align with new corporate security policies, and to match policies adopted by other communities within Oracle, the My Oracle Support Community access requirements will change beginning September 18, 2025. MOSC will now require that member accounts in our community be associated to a *corporate* email address. This means that users with generic domains (such as gmail.com, yahoo.com, and others) will no longer be granted access to the discussion forums and ideas labs. If this policy affects you, act now to change the email address that is associated with your Oracle (and community) account. Alternatively, you can opt to create a new Oracle account that uses your corporate email domain.

Database - RAC/Scalability (MOSC)

Can we install 2 separate ORACLE_HOMES on a RAC server

We are installing a 2 node RAC using Oracle 19c database.

After the Grid infrastructure is installed as grid user, the next step is to install the ORACLE_HOME as oracle user.

Can we create 2 separate ORACLE_HOMES at this stage as oracle user ?

Ex -

/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_1 -- For DEV databases
/u01/app/oracle/product/19.0.0/dbhome_2 ---For TEST databases

Will both these ORACLE_HOMES be patched automatically with the autopatch utility run as grid user ?

Thanks
