Re: Moving Oracle from IBM AIX to Linux?

Oracle is available on Red Hat Linux. "Officially", it is only supported on Red Hat Linux AS. But it works on other flavors as well. You can download a copy of Oracle for Linux on Technet (http://technet.oracle.com).

You will always have licensing issues. Can you transfer your license from one server to another? It all depends on your license agreement so check with your Oracle reprensentative.
