Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Oracle Y2K Compliance: Need Your Feedback
Dear Oracle Users,
We have a few databases running 7.3.3. We are in the
process of upgrading to 7.3.4 in order to make them
Y2K compliant. Also, 7.3.3 is not supported by Oracle anymore.
It came to our knowledge that even 7.3.4 is not Y2K compliant. I have attached the reasons at the bottom of this posting. Is upgrading our databases to 8.0.5 our only option? I am kind of reluctanct to take this route. What is everyone else in the Oracle world doing?
Your feedback is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Kittu.
"In Oracle 7.3.4, Cumulative Exports may not include the
correct tables for the first cumulative export in the
year 2000. The bug number for this error is 778615.
In addition, some V$ tables have VARCHAR2 columns which
include date related information.
E.g.: V$LOG.FIRST_TIME V$LOG_HISTORY.TIME.
This does not cause any operational problems but may
affect any scripts which use information in these views.
Refer to tech support bulletin for bug number 817753
for workaround information."
