Where is ORACLE_HOME set in AIX?

In Linux I can set ORACLE_HOME in .cshrc. Where do I set this variable in AIX?

There's no such thing as "compiling" .cshrc. source only reads and executes that file. – Renan – 2012-06-26T17:16:27.037

If you are using the C shell in AIX, then you would also set it in ~/.cshrc. If you are using a different shell (e.g., Korn shell, Bash, Bourne shell, etc.), then you would set it in a startup script that is specific to that shell.

Then where can I set alias names? – Venkatesh – 2012-06-26T17:51:33.270

You define aliases in the startup script for the shell you are using. If you are using the C shell, you would do it in ~/.cshrc. If you are using Bash, you would do it in ~/.bashrc. Each shell documents a startup script that it executes. If the shell supports aliases (all do except the original Bourne shell), you would define your aliases in the startup script for that shell. – Fran – 2012-06-26T18:02:58.767
