Subject: Oracle 8.0.6 32 bit versus 64 bit Oracle 8.0.6 32 bit versus 64 bit

Hi,

I am trying to find information on Oracle 8.0.6 32 bit versus 64 bit.
I am interested in knowing the advantages, disadvantages, known problems, and Oracle's recommendation about each. We are using HP-UX 11.0 64 bit operating system. I have heard that
the 64 bit versions of Oracle are somewhat buggy and to avoid their
use for now. I would like Oracle to comment on this and provide supporting documentation.

Thank You,

I apologize for the delay in responding to your message, as we have received an unexpectedly high volume of forum messages.

It does not appear that v8.0.6 is available for the hp.ux 64 bit.

Sincerely,
Lana
