Re: Multiple default directories for an ID
Disclosing those might have avoided
considerable wasted time and effort.

Re: Multiple default directories for an ID
I agree with Jeremy: Use a common login, and invoke an architecture-specific set of definitions. Typically, this is done using a logical name (e.g., HOST_ARCHITECTURE:DEFINE.COM). The logical name is defined in the system wide logical name table when the node is started.
There is no need to embed IF statements that check architecture in the user's login, merely an invocation of a file whose logical name differs on each architecture.
What goal are you attempting?

Re: Multiple default directories for an ID
The ID in question is used to control Oracle. Right now we have Oracle version 10 only on our Itanium node but we are upgrading our Oracle version 9 on Alpha to Oracle version 10 on Alpha.
Currently the Oracle10 default device is a drive that houses the Itanium code for Oracle. The Alpha code for Oracle will be on another device to keep them totally separate.
That is why I was interested if I could have one id that I could have go to two home devices. I do appoligize that I did not provide this information from the begging as some of you pointed out.
I am gratefull to you all for taking the time to share your experience and knowledge and I have decidied that the best alternative is to go with two ID's one for each version of Oracle10. It end up being much easier to keep things straight going forward.

Re: Multiple default directories for an ID
How about defining a system logical name "ORACLE_HOME" which is defined based upon the architecture?
Arguably, this definition could be used as part of the UAF entry for the ORACLE DBA account.
The above is based upon your last description of the specifics of the situation.

Re: Multiple default directories for an ID
With the logical name being the same on each system, there are no changes required in login.com or any other common procedure.

Re: Multiple default directories for an ID
Is that what you are asking about?
