While it is possible to copy /mnt_point/app/oracle tree to a different
host
and still get oracle to run, you might be in for a RUDE surprise in the
future.
After I copied an 8.1.6 tree onto a test system earlier this year,
Oracle
refused to allow it to be upgraded to V8.1.7 because the "inventory"
directory did NOT contain any knowledge of the 8.1.6 installation.
I am NOT saying that you can't work around such problems,
I'm just warning that it has the potential for future additional work.
HTH & YMMV!
