OPatch succeeded.
============>>>补丁已经打到了11.2.0.4.2,以下是oraInst.loc中的内容：
1.Central Inventory中的oraInst.loc
[oracle@rh64 oraInventory]$ cat /u01/app/oraInventory/oraInst.loc
inventory_loc=/u01/app/oraInventory
inst_group=oinstall
2. ORACLE_HOME下的oraInst.loc
[oracle@rh64 oraInventory]$ echo $ORACLE_HOME
/u01/app/db11g/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
[oracle@rh64 oraInventory]$ cat /u01/app/db11g/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/oraInst.loc
inventory_loc=/u01/app/oraInventory
inst_group=oinstall
3. /etc以下的oraInst.loc  =====>>>Central Inventory Pointer File
[oracle@rh64 oraInventory]$ cat /etc/oraInst.loc 
inventory_loc=/u01/app/oraInventory
inst_group=oinstall


注意：可见上面三个文件都是一样的内容。都是第一行注冊文件夹的位置，第二行为宿主。

注意假设你通过新装软件的方式来升级数据库，假设ORACLE的基
文件夹有所改变，要记得同一时候改动这三个文件。以免使用OPatch的时候报错。
 
在oracle官方文档的Oracle® Universal Installer and OPatch User's Guide 11g Release 2 (11.2) for Windows and UNIX有具体描写叙述.
Oracle Universal Installer Inventory的注冊文件夹有例如以下三个：
1> Central Inventory Pointer File
2> Central Inventory
3> Oracle Home Inventory


1> Central Inventory Pointer File
每个oracle软件安装都会有它自己的Central Inventory pointer file 
Table 2-2 Default Inventory Pointer File Locations


Platform           Default Inventory Pointer Location
Linux Linux.PPC64 AIX  /etc/oraInst.loc
Solaris.SPARC Solaris.X64 HPUX HPIA HP.TRU64 Linux.IA64 Linux.xSeries  /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc
Windows Windows.X64 Windows.IA64     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Oracle/inst.loc


In UNIX, if you do not want to use the Central Inventory located in the directory specified by the inventory pointer file, you can use the -invPtrLoc flag to specify another inventory pointer file. The syntax is as follows:


./runInstaller -silent -invPtrLoc <Location_of_oraInst.loc> ORACLE_
HOME="<Location_of_Oracle_Home>"


2> Central Inventory
Central Inventory包括了在一个主机上安装的全部Oracle软件产品的信息。
这个以下包含Inventory File，Logs Directory
Oracle强烈建议不要手工改动这以下的inventory.xml。否则会造成产品安装或者patch的时候出现故障。


3> Oracle Home Inventory
包含Components File,Home Properties File,Other Folders


怎样创建Central Inventory？（见官档）
./runInstaller -silent -attachHome ORACLE_HOME="<Oracle_Home_Location>"
"CLUSTER_NODES={<node1,node2>}" LOCAL_NODE="<node_name>"
怎样创建Removing the Central Inventory？（见官档）


总结：
这个东西我如今感觉就是在安装或者打补丁的时候，还有clone软件的时候，从别的地方tar过来软件的时候，这三个文件须要注意。
另外意外丢失怎样重建也可能会遇到。当然另一些其它的日志信息可供參考的，没啥难得。看看就好
