Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Upgrade 8.0.5 to 8.1.7.3
Matt:
I don't have the bug#s. When I opened a TAR on this (now unpublished) the support person called me and told me that I had to downgrade the database to workaround the bug. (All the TAR says is that they called me.) The analyst said that bug is one that is fixed in 9.0.2.
In our case, whenever a specific stored procedure was called with a certain range or parameters, Oracle would use all of the available memory on the server -- causing the server to crash.

First of all, there are some serious problems with 8.1.7.3 that can cause database crashes and corruption. One bug (may be solaris specific) can crash
the box. I would highly recommend that you "only" upgrade to 8.1.7.2 unless absolutely necessary. We have downgraded all of our 8.1.7.3 databases to 8.1.7.2 (a *very* painful experience)
That said, I never had trouble upgrading directly to 8.1.7.2 directly from 8.1.5.x or 8.1.6.x. We have done in development, staging and production without any adverse effects. I don't think I've ever done a 8.0.5 to 8.1.7 directly.

Hi All,
we are in the process of upgrading to 8.1.7.3 some of our databases (now
8.0.5)
According to the Doc's thsi has to be done in two steps
Upgrade to 8.1.7.0.0 followed by and upgrade to 8.1.7.3.0.
This means that we have to upgrade all our databases in one go, or install another base 8.1.7 install to do some databases later.
On our test system however we have upgraded directly form 8.0.5 and all seems to be fine.
Anybody care to comment/share their opinions/experiences
TIA Jack
