Other preliminary details:

Establish ORACLE_BASE directory

set ORACLE_SID and ORACLE_BASE

Use a custom install so these can be set:

-eliminate repository creation for DB Control

-advanced init parameters

-avoid repository schema creation

Use the release notes for the 11.1.0.7.0 patchset install:

800550.1 11.1.0.7 Patch Set - Linux x86 64bit README

-Select 11.1.0.6.0 database Oracle Home

-Run DBUA after patch is installed as per readme

Later, either CPU or PSU update should be undertaken to keep the installation compliant with current

Oracle standards.
