Title: Install of two client versions on same box



I would go ahead one step and suggest keep ORACLE 
BASE also separate for each Oracle Version.... And also take care of INVENTORY 
FILE...

  This 
  is very easy if you follow OFA standards for software installation.  The 
  different versions are installed as sub-directories of the $ORACLE_BASE 
  directories (i.e... /oracle/app/oracle/product/8160, 
  /oracle/app/oracle/product/8172).  You then switch versions by changing 
  your ORACLE_HOME, LD_LIBRARY_PATH, etc.

    box
    Hi! 
    Is it possible to install two client versions (8.1.6 and 
    8.1.7) on the same Sun Solaris box? The reason for 
    that is that we are using BEA Weblogic, which requires a specific Oracle 
    client version and our application needs another one. Don't ask me about the 
    sense behind it...
    This is 8.1.6/8.1.7 on Sun Solaris. 
    Thanks, Helmut
