Oracle Client and HP-UX 11i Compatability

[Andrew Webber_1]

Looking at the discussion thread entitled "What versions of Oracle are supported-certified on HP-UX 1111?" seems to suggest Oracle 8.1.6 is the earliest version of Oracle that is certified for use with HP-UX 11.11 - is this correct?

View Certifications by HP-UX 11.11 as follws:
32-bit/64-bit Information:
HP-UX 11.0 & 11i can be either 32-bit or 64-bit.
If the Server product is 64-bit then 64-bit hardware (processors) is required.

Patch Sets

8.1.7.2.1 replaces 8.1.7.2.0: Do not install 8.1.7.2.0 on top of 8.1.7.1 or 8.1.7.1b. You need the 8.1.7.2.1 patch. This problem is specific to this platform.
