Can I move the folder /usr/local which is under / currently to /ora1 folder or mount point which has more space. If so , any steps for doing that...
Be careful about doing that. I know Oracle looks for specific commands in /usr/local during installs. I'm not sure how the installation would proceed if the executables were moved to another location.
You could try the tar(1) command to pack up the files in /usr/local and then use the ln command to create a symbolic link to the new location back to /usr/local. BUT, I am not sure how this would affect your Oracle install. Some thing like this might work:
Dont forget to change your PATH variable (in $HOME/.profile and /etc/profile) to point to the new directories.

Thanks. (7 Replies)

makewhatis.local
MAKEWHATIS.LOCAL(8) BSD System Manager's Manual MAKEWHATIS.LOCAL(8)NAME
makewhatis.local, catman.local -- start makewhatis or catman for local file systems
SYNOPSIS
/usr/libexec/makewhatis.local [options] directories ...
/usr/libexec/catman.local [options] directories ...
DESCRIPTION
The makewhatis.local utility starts makewhatis(1) only for file systems physically mounted on the system where the makewhatis.local is being
executed. Running makewhatis by periodic weekly for rw nfs-mounted /usr may kill your NFS server -- all NFS clients start makewhatis at the
same time! So use this wrapper for cron(8) instead of calling makewhatis directly. The catman.local utility is using for same purposes as
makewhatis.local but for catman(1).
FILES
/etc/periodic/weekly/320.whatis run makewhatis.local every week
/etc/periodic/weekly/330.catman run catman.local every week
SEE ALSO catman(1), find(1), makewhatis(1), cron(8), periodic(8)HISTORY
The makewhatis.local utility appeared in FreeBSD 2.2.
