Silent Install of the 11gR2 Oracle Client failing

Surprising error whilst performing a silent error installing Oracle.



Using paramFile: /home/oracle/Oracle/client/install/oraparam.ini


Checking Temp space: must be greater than 120 MB.   Actual 2225807 MB    Passed
Checking swap space: must be greater than 150 MB.   Actual 4095 MB    Passed

The number of files bootstrapped for the jre is 0.

The number of files bootstrapped for the oui is 0.


The problem was the filesystem I was installing on was too big!

[root@sec-dev-qa001 /home/oracle]# df -h .
Filesystem      Size  Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/test3       2.2T  225G  2.0T  11% /


I created a file about 300GB (to take the filesystem below 2TB) and tried the install again and it worked!
