Yes. It depends on the shell you are using. By default Linux uses the
Bash shell (/bin/bash). To set your environment variables in bash edit
the file ~/.bash_profile and include something like:
ORACLE_BASE=/usr/oraInventory
ORACLE_HOME=/usr/oracle
EXPORT ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME
If you are using the C-shell (/bin/csh), you can edit your ~/.cshrc
file, the syntax is slightly different:
set ORACLE_BASE = (/usr/oraInventory)
set ORACLE_HOME = (/usr/oracle)
If you are not sure which shell you are using, you can find out by typing:
echo $SHELL
also, the "~" thingy is a short hand for your home directory. So if
your user name is "tsharma" ~/.bash_profile and
/home/tsharma/.bash_profile refer to the same file.
