Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Effect of Upgrading O/S to the 817 database !!!
Jackson - It is a holiday for most of the U.S. folks, but hopefully someone
will get back to you. I am on Unix myself, so of no help to you. My laptop
was recently upgraded from NT to 2000 Professional, and the PC
administrators said that their experience was to not upgrade the system, but
to reformat the hard drive, fresh install Windows 2000 and then reinstall
everything. I think your existing Oracle software should be good to
reinstall, but you should check the compatibility on
http://metalink.oracle.com. And of course you will be doing this on your
test machine before you jeopardize your production system. You don't say
which 8.1.7 version you are using - 8.1.7.4?

Hi
We are currently running Oracle 817 database on a Windows NT, version 5, service pack 6. We need to upgrade O/S to Windows 2000. What should we do on the database side, do we need to do a new Oracle 817 software installation after upgrading O/S and try to startup the database or do we need to do everything from scratch, i.e. install software, create database and import ? I tought this should not have an effect on the database, if that the case, do we then need to just try to startup the database after O/S upgrade ? Please help ...your response will be highly appreciated. Desperado
