We are planning on upgrading our Oracle installation from 7.3 to 8,
and at the same time move it from OpenVMS/VAX 6.2 to NT Server 4.0. I
have heard mixed reactions on moving it to an NT platform from a VAX
platform (we were told that Oracle is no longer supporting the newer
versions on VMS). We were told by some people that on Oracle on NT
gets bogged down if more than, say, 30 users are connecting at one
time. We have found that any machine that is not capable physically
of supporting 30 users will get bogged down no matter what operating
system is on it, so we took that with a grain of salt.
I would like to hear what people are experiencing with this, whether
it be good, bad, or indifferent, and if anyone has suggestions or a
"heads-up" of things that we need to look out for when we upgrade.
We woulfd greatly appreciate any input that is provided.
Thank you.
