Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Upgrading Oracle
I have to upgrade one of my databases and just want to check on
any concerns/issues.
We currently are running Oracle 8.0.4.0 on HP10.20 32-bit. We are upgrading the OS to HP11 64-bit. As a result we are upgrading Oracle. I have decided to go to Oracle 8.1.6 32-bit. We are only doing basic stuff in this database so I am not to concerned with bugs.
Has anyone attempted a similar upgrade? What issues did you end up with? My big concern is that if the Oracle upgrade fails we have to actually reinstall the OS back to 10.20. I am already looking at a really long time to bring the database back from tape for the first install. I am not to concerned about the OS upgrade as they have done that 7 times successfully already. Just the first time we have thrown Oracle in the mix.
