RE: Oracle Version on Unix

There are couple of methods to determine it. One is when you login as sqlplus, it will show the word "64 bit" in the banner.

Or if you do "file $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle" oracle: ELF 64-bit MSB executable SPARCV9 Version 1, dynamically linked, not stripped

It shows whether is a 32bit or 64bit executable.

I know this was discussed a short time ago, but how do I determine if the Oracle 817 version installed on a Sun Unix box is 32 or 64 bit?

I'm looking at migrating to 9.2/64 bit and noticed that I cannot directly migrate a 32bit version to 64 bit.

Thanks

My house is insured and I'm contemplating a ground up redecoration. As for being an infidel, the God is great and Larry Wall is his prophet. I'm a true believer.
