Officially, database encryption is neither unsupported nor supported - supportability issues would need to be addressed by the database vendor providing the encryption. As mentioned, it is expected that it will be transparent to any application running on top of the database and thus unaffected. As long as that holds true, AR System should work properly.

Remedy shouldn't be affected because the encryption is done by Oracle itself and the clients should ensure that the calling application is unaware of the encryption. You will need to check whether BMC supports Remedy against an encrypted database and, if you do it, check that performance isn't affected too greatly.

We also have an additional requirement that the data should be "Encrypted". As Oracle 10GR2 version supports the encryption we are looking forward to this approach. Question: 1. Does the remedy 7.1 supports "Column level" or "Tablespace level" encryption. 2. If yes a. Do we have to change any settings in remedy for this changed? b. How and what impact it will be on the application and data? i. While view/search/add/update? 3. If No a. What should be the approach?
