Hi Everyone,
Kinda off topic.
We are installing a new compiler for Cobol Microfocus�on our�HP-UX 11.23 and Oracle 11.1.0.7� We are on Itanium 64 bit.� We have the option of installing 32bit or 64 bit Microfocus v5.0
�
I was going to make an SR, but thought i'd get a quicker response from the list.�
This is the SQLPLUS banner:
SQL*Plus: Release 11.1.0.7.0 - Production on Fri Mar 19 09:05:31 2010
Copyright (c) 1982, 2008, Oracle.� All rights reserved.
Connected to:
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP, Data Mining and Real Application Testing options
it says 64bit, but, to tell the truth, i never really looked into what's installed... which compiler should we install?� 32bit or 64bit Microfocus?� i want to say 64bit especially since it's Itanium... but, i'm not sure, or what's certified/recommended.� I could only find a Metalink Doc that says Micro v5.0 is certified with 11.1.0.7 on HP-uX Itanium.� Nothing about bit.
Thanks,
Lyall
