Hello,

I just want to know if it is technically possible to install Oracle 8.1.7 & Oracle 10 on the same server while users can connect to both databases without having to change any parameters on the server. The server is a Win2K server and has currently installed Oracle 8.1.7. We would like to install Oracle 10 in a seperate home.

Is this possible ? What are the restrictions ? Do we need to use the oracle utility to switch homes? Or can we just use two seperate listeners, one for the Oracle 8i and one for the Oracle 10 server ?
