Re: Oracle on NT server versus Solaris server

We have tried Oracel 8.1.5 and we backed up to 8.0.6 The Oracle8i is a real berdun for your system. It uses alot of ressources. We had to upgrade Memory on our Solaris E250. There is also a few bug that are about to be resolve on 8.1.6. The installation is also not really easy and requires a lot of memory.

I would recommend to really think twice and make sure this is what you need before going to Oracel8i.

If you want more information please feel free to contact me.

Thanks
