Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Financials Client question
We have outsourced implementation and setup of a scaled down Oracle
Applications 11i (rel 11.5.5) for Suse Linux...
I have received a memo from the implementation team's application DBAs
and they
have informed me of a certain limitation for the specs of the client
PC's.
I was informed that the clients must either be Pentium 3s and below or
all Pentium 4s.
Mixed network of Pentium 3 and 4s will not work. I was told it was
because of the JInitiator being invoked from the server.
to quote:
"Let us further clarify that, through our proven installation/setup
experience, the Shooman Application works on a network environment of
"mixed" Pentium 3s and earlier computers. As of this writing, we have
yet
to prove that Shooman works properly in a network of Pentium 3 (or
older)
workstations mixed with Pentium 4s. However, we have proven that the
application works if ALL workstations are Pentium 4s. It therefore
follows
that, should you purchase the latest Pentium 4 computers, you must issue
ALL your Shooman users with this model in order for the system to work properly." (Shooman refers to the Oracle Application residing on a server named Shooman)
I am completely ignorant of Oracle Applications as I have 0 experience
in managing it.
I'd really appreciate your opinion if we are being fooled or not.
I am very concerned about this because as we all know PCs become
obsolete in months...
time will come we will have to change PCs...maybe move on to Pentium
5/6...
This can pose a problem for us.
Thanks a lot!
