We just installed Oracle 7.3.2.1 on AIX 4.1.4 and noticed the following problems:

The dbstart and dbshut scripts still reference sqldba, which has been replaced by svrmgrl! Simple to fix, but annoying.

The oraenv script runs osh to chnage the ulimit, but the osh binary crashes. Returns 1 and prints the following:

$ osh
osh [-l]

: Error 0

Which is not what we wanted, is it? Why don't the scripts work as-is? Is this a production release or not? What other problems am I going to find? Why are we using Oracle?

Thanks for letting me vent. If we did something wrong for the installation, I'd love to hear about it. Anyone else out there install 7.3.2.1 on AIX and not have these problems?

Stan
