So I've done a quick read of the upgrade and install manuals, I've searched metalink, asktom, and here. I just can't find what I'm looking for and I'm probably just not searching on the correct phrases.
I know you have to create seperate homes and I know that a 10g install can't read a 9i database and vice versa. My question is what exactly is it that tells the instance what version of the software to use? I'm assuming it is just the ORACLE_HOME environment variable that you have set when you start the database. Am I missing something real obvious here? Received on Tue Jun 05 2007 - 10:12:32 CDT
