Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Upgrade to 8.1.7.2 on Linux -- an interesting happening
Today we upgraded one of our 8.1.7.0.1 _STANDARD EDITION_ distributions on a test server to 8.1.7.2.
An interesting thing happened.
After we brought up the test database we had running on the machine, it came up indicating that we were running the _ENTERPRISE EDITION_ of Oracle. A query of v$option showed that we were, indeed, running the Enterprise Edition of Oracle.
Just for grins, we restored the old 8.1.7.0.1 distribution, brought up the old database, and it was running under the Standard Edition.
Has anyone else done an upgrade to 8.1.7.2? Anyone notice the same thing?
We think it's great of Oracle to provide us a patch allowing us to seamlessly switch to the Enterprise Edition.
Somehow, though, I don't think that's what they're trying to do here...
