I think 128 MB RAM is VERY little for Oracle 8i, I have 256 MB and it is not
too much either. But with 512 MB it's speed is screeming, users were
overwhelmed when we upgraded from Oracle 8.0.5 on NT.
I am not shure about SP6, Oracle Support for example in case of OAS4 did not
like it.

Subject: Trashing Oracle.
Hi Guys,
Just wanted to double check with you guys - I am going to be trashing my NT
4, 8.0.4 test instance once I have managed to download the 8.1.6 zip from
technet over my 31,200 bps line!! Yeah - 6 years later..
Anyway, I am going to totally wipe Oracle and start over a again, and just
wanted to check on how to wipe completely -
- Shut down the instance
- oradim80 to delete all of the services (what is the command by the way?)
- Delete the Oracle directory
- Delete all mention of Oracle in my registry.
Is this the right way to do it? Should I do anything else? Also is there
anything that I should watch out for with 8.1.6 on NT 4 sp6? I only have
128mb RAM on my NT box, will that do for an empty instance? The only reason
it is there is to test tools against.. Do I need to worry about anything
else?
Cheers
Mark
