Supported Oracle Versions on Various HP-UX Versions?

Does anyone know which versions of Oracle are supported on which versions of HP-UX? Is there a chart somewhere on HP's or Oracles website that outlines this?

Specifially, I'm wondering if 7.3.4 is supported on 11i?

Thanks again,
Greg

7.3.4 is not supported by Oracle any more.

This information is on http://metalink.oracle.com

Will it work?

Anything from 8.0.5 and below is not supported on HPUX 11i.

As was mentioned ... 7.3.4 is no longer supported. You need to look at getting your Oracle upgraded, asap. Remember, upgrades are part of MIS life. Management may hate to take the time to have the upgrades done ( I know ours did ! ).
But, in the long run, they will thank you.
The immediate improvement we felt from going from 7.3.4.0 to 8i, was well worth the time to get there.

Just an opinion,

Some portion of support on 8.1.7 Oracle is going away 12-31-2003

Support will be gone at Oracle for that version on 12-31-2003

The obvious choice depending on your back end application is Oracle 9.0.2 aka 9i Release 2.

We are planning just such an upgrade right now, to avoid coming up against a reduced support situation.

The big issue with that database on HP-UX is that it only uses raw disk areas for the database. There is no longer an option to do it on a filesystem. This supposedly provides better performance.

Seems like we're going to get started before you so tune in right here, post your questions as you go and we'll learn from each other. Thats what itrc is for.

Good Luck,
