ARS 6.3 requires the Oracle 9iR2 client. I can't remember if the Oracle 9 client can connect to an Oracle 11g database. If it can then you can upgrade Oracle all the way to 11g while still on ARS 6.3.

The key fact being that Oracle 11g is not supported by ARs 6.3, but Oracle 10g is supported by both ARS 6.3 and ARS 7.5. The lazy in me is trying to find out if I can somehow skip 10g. To do so, I would have to try ARS 7.5 with Oracle 9, or ARS 6.3 with Oracle 11g. I know these are not supported combinations, but it doesn't mean I can't have them (especially for the duration of the upgrade work). Anybody done it? ARS (both 6.3 and future 7.5) and Oracle 9 are in Solaris. Oracle 10g, 11g will be in Linux. Thanks in advance. _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org attend wwrug10 www.wwrug.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
