Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Multiple Oracle Versions on Same Host (Workgroup 8.0.6 & Ente
Dennis,
I had mentioned the licensing. But, it is a separate topic. They wanted to know from a technical perspective could it be done.
I agree that one should stick with vendor certified systems. I support PeopleSoft on Oracle so I am very fussy about what versions we are on. As for this application I don't know what their intentions are. I have been involved with them for only a couple of hours when this came up.
I certainly find it disturbing if the vendor has not yet certified 8i, when 9iR2 is shipping. I also intend to track that one down.
I just found out that the entire issue is being grouped into a project passed to IBM so they have to worry about it. (We outsourced our Infrastructure to IBM). Though enquiring minds want to know.
Thx.
David
