 Description   

In corporate environments, the user's home dir can be shared across all machines (ie. in NFS), which makes it an unsuitable place for a DB install to support multiple machines. Symlinking from the home dir to local drives is a possible workaround, but is undesirable since it adds unnecessary NFS lookups to binary calls and complicates the install process.

Normally would have closed as a Duplicate, there are a number of JIRA already opened for this issue. But since its was opened by a customer, better to leave open to show a request from a customer..

This will be tracked under MCOL-539 just so we have one ticket for this.
