RE: 32 bit oracle standby running on 64 bit linux

Hi Christo

I'm guessing when you talking about 64bit you mean Intel EM64T

Here what oracle certification says

Linux x86-64, support on AMD64/EM64T and Intel Processor Chips that adhere to the x86-64 architecture with supported Linux releases. Running Oracle 32-bit on AMD64/EM64T (64-bit OS) is not supported .

I tried once to install 32bit Oracle on a 64bit OS, not very fun

Subject: 32 bit oracle standby running on 64 bit linux

Hello,

Currently we have 32 bit linux and 32 bit Oracle 9i.

My idea is to move to 64 bit in the following way:

• install 32 bit Oracle software on 64 bit linux
• install 64 bit Oracle software on 64 bit linux
• setup standby of production using the 32 bit Oracle software on the 64 bit server
• switch to this standby
• shutdown, reopen with 64 bit and upgrade on the stop

Do you guys know if I can have a standby of a 32 bit Oracle database on a 64 bit server running 32 bit software ?
