Hi netters,

I need to upgrade Oracle 7.0.12.2.0 on SunOS 4.1.3 to Oracle 7.1.3 on Solaris 2.3 (that's the only set of CD I got from Oracle). I need to ask a few questions:

  1. Is it a "must" to upgrade 7.0 to 7.1 on SunOS first then from SunOS to Solaris? Does it work if I install a new 7.1 on Solaris, export db on 7.0 and import back on 7.1?
  2. Can my 7.1 server running on Solaris while my client remain on SunOS? If yes, what should I do? Can my clients still using the set of tools (e.g. sqlplus) running on 7.0?

Either email or post news are welcome.
