From: Oracle, Narayanan Jayapalan 23-Jan-01 08:47 Subject: Re : Kernel upgrade

Hi,

Normally, after the OS upgrade, it is enough to relink the oracle executables and regenerate the binaries on the new version of OS.

However, check the certification matrix and ensure that the combination of the new OS version and the rdbms version you are using is certified.

Thanks.
