Database Install/Upgrade/Opatch (MOSC)

How much storage is required for 19c install and why does my oracle directory look to be bloated

we are trying to justify moving to OOP patching and need to size our resources

Per Oracle doc (via SR)

Common Requirements

  • RAM – Minimum - 1 GB of RAM. Recommended: 2GB of RAM or more
  • Swap - 1.5 times the size of RAM
    • - Between 2 GB and 16 GB of RAM - Equal to the size of RAM
    • - More than 16 GB RAM – 16 GB
  • Disk space - 11 GB -Database Software Files. + additional at least 2 GB for preconfigured db, 1.0GB /tmp

However my oracle homes all come in around 30 - 40 G.

Why are my homes so much larger and is there a way to identify unnecessary components/items to reduce the footprint of grid and rdbms homes?

Howdy, Stranger!
