RE: Installing 73 and 816 on one NT server?

Hi Denham,

A word of warning: We used to have an app that used an Oracle 7.3.4 DB on NT 4.0 SP5. After the *second* datafile corruption in less than a month, we moved the DB to OpenVMS where it happily lived out it's usefulness. (Thanks to a proper setup, we were able to completely recover in both cases)

Dump NT, especially for Oracle7. Put it on some Unix flavor or OpenVMS. It's either a little pain now, or a lotta pain later.

Good luck!

Hi Gurus,

I have annihilated our test system trying to achieve this. Does anyone have any links to sites or Metalink which documents this. What I have done is try to load two versions of Oracle 7.3.4 and 8.1.6 onto an NT system.
I did the obvious by placing the versions in their own Oracle Base directories and different Oracle Names.
I have a suspicion that the registry is where the two cannot share their settings?!

Anyway any guidance will be appreciated. Many Thanks
Denham
