Installing the Software Using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI)
You can use the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) to install your Oracle software . The OUI is a GUI tool that enables you to view the
Oracle software that is installed on your machine, install new Oracle software, and delete Oracle software that you no longer intend to
use. There are two methods that you can use to install the Oracle software: basic and advanced. Choose the basic installation
method to quickly the install the software with minimal user input. The advanced installation method enables you to perform a custom
installation.

Follow the steps below to create a new database or a second database if you created a database as part of the software installation:
1. Log onto your computer as a member of the administrative group that is authorized to install Oracle software and
create and manage the database.
2. Launch the DBCA on a Linux or UNIX operating system by entering the following at a command prompt:
dbca
3. The Welcome window appears. Click Next.
