Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: transition from win32 to *nix64
Paul - How strong is your *nix background? My theory is that moving to a new
platform produces frustration. Things you could do easily on the old system
are difficult on the new system until you incorporate the mindset of the new
system. Frustration is more easily dealt with when you understand that it is
just a temporary inconvenience. Just my 2 cents worth.

Subject: transition from win32 to *nix64
Anyone care to share their stories regarding benefits and gotchas in the move of databases from win32 to *nix64?
We've already started migrating development off win32 to lin32 for some apps and have an app that has been running on a dedicated RH8 box for (9.2.0.3) for quite some time.
I'm hoping that as we test on and migrate to 10g, that it is on a 64 bit architecture. Thinking that the flexibility of AMD Opteron can't be beat for near-term purchases.
thanks in advance.
Paul
