Oracle Version 8.1.6 Standard Edition (64 bit)

[Witter]

Does anyone knows, where i can find a supportmatrix where the suppported Oracle Version (Standard or Enterprise Edition) are listed. I wish to install Oracle Standard Edition 8.1.6 on HP-UX 11.11 and i don't know, if there exists a 64-bit Version

Anyway I have this matrix.,Might be helpful

Standard Edition:
OS Product Certified With Version Status Addtl. Info. Components Other Install Issue
11i 8.1.7 (8i) N/A N/A Certified Yes None None None
11.0 8.1.7 (8i) N/A N/A Certified Yes None None None
11i 8.1.6 (8i) N/A N/A Desupported Yes None N/A N/A
11.0 8.1.6 (8i) N/A N/A Desupported Yes None N/A N/A

This is the latest matrix from Metalink for product certification. It looks as if only EE supports 64 bit. Standard Edition can also only handle 4 CPU per cabinet enclosure.

Sorry about the formatting.

It looks as if 8.1.6 is no longer a certified combination (both SE and EE) for HPUX.
8.1.7 and above are still certified.

Also, there are desupport notices on metalink for 8.1.6 stating they are no longer doing "Error Correction" but still providing assistance as it pertains to existing issues.

(Also, it's been my experience if you do call with an issue, they will strongly suggest going to certified versions)

Do you have metalink? All the latest info (along with certification matrices) are under Certify and Availability -> Certifcations.

Good luck,
Scott
