Re: Solaris patches needed for patchset 9.2.0.6 ??

Daniel,
If you're on Solaris 8 and you plan to use DISM features w/ 9.2.0.x, you'd better be ready to apply significant patches. (When I laid it out, my sysadmin seemed to think moving to Solaris 9 was easier....) If you don't plan to set sga_max_size, you won't be bitten by the DISM bug, but, there my be other features that need other patches applied to work correctly. My recommendation, go to Solaris 9 before you go to Oracle 9iR2.
