We are running ARS 7.6.04sp1 on Win2008 x64 and Oracle 11 x64 in production. The upgrade from 7.5 p3 was tedious whereas I had to run ARS install once, wait for it to fail, apply licensing and remove ARSystemInstalledConfiguration.xml, clean all temp directories and run again. Then upgrade CMDB to 7.6.04sp1 in almost the same manner. 4 hours for AR and 8 for CMDB made for a long night.
However, the system is running great. Queries improved from 1minute returns to 3 second returns. Of course I equate that to 64-bit, not efficient BMC code. :) From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kemes, Lisa Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2011 10:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Trying to Install ARS 7.6.04 SP2 on Oracle 11gR2 ** Or maybe we should just download sp1 for now....

I believe this to be accurate: I am having 2003 64bit with oracle 11i 64bit upgrade issues: it just does not work. But I have not had time to call, in the ticket,,, too busy... Soon I will .. but I am guessing they have an issue... I would love to hear someone say: it worked for me.. but I did .......

The oracle client that our DBA has been installed is OraClient11g (64 bit I believe) and we keep getting this error during installation: I checked the path and it looks OK to me (c:\oracle\Ora11gR2_x64\bin;) and there is nothing in the tnsnames.ora file and if he installed the 64 bit client, the libraries should be there. I checked the compatibility matrix for 7.6.04 and it says that the ONLY client that can be installed is 64-bit Oracle 11g which we installed. Is there anything else I need to check?
