Oracle 8i 8.1.7 on HP-UX11i

[kenny chia]

I intend to purchase a new HP9000 system. Is there an official release note on the web that says that Oracle8i can be installed on HP-UX11i?

That really is an Oracle question.
It is not up to HP to decide this.
So please doublecheck with the Oracle support folks or support web site.
But I can tell you the answer you'll find: yes it is supported.

Start for example:

http://otn.oracle.com/products/oracle8i/index.html

hit: support

or:
http://otn.oracle.com/support/metalink/index.html

Now drill down:

by product: database/server

database enterprise edition

platform: hpux pa-risc

ceritified comninations: [check] +

---> 8.1.7 is certified on 11i.


Cheers,
Hein.

Hi Kenny,

Oracle metalink has the certification matrix which says which release of Oracle rdbms is certified for which release of HP-UX software.

Attached is the certification matrix for oracle 8i (32-bit / 64-bit) rdbms release 8.1.7 for HP-UX 11 and 11i.

Then there will be release notes of the Oracle rdbms that will describe the installation procedutes and the details about BUGS nad fixes if any.


I hope this helps.
