Here is the info on the Oracle "assessment." Since when did this stuff
require money? LOL!!!!
We caught one of the people that comes to our church food bank selling
the food he got in the Kmart parking lot down the street. Maybe we
could think of some revenue generation solution like that!

Mr. Martin.
Ok....The assessments normally last 2 to 3 weeks, which require
an onsite visit to collect, analyze & evaluate the IT environment. My
contract rate is $190 Hr. + travel expenses which we can try to keep
down by minimizing onsite time.
You will be presented with a final presentation at the end of
that term and I will be available to answer any & all questions. This
includes considerable amount of collateral documentation. This may also
include installation, configuration & tuning information as well.
Since I no longer work for Oracle, this document would be an
independent assessment, free of any bias that results from the pressure
of a commission based salesman. I think you know what I mean.
I can also help you/your company with the installation,
migration, tuning and other support activities...but that is another
topic that can be addressed if you wish to move forward.

Terry...
I just got off of a contract with Oracle and have moved their
data bases to zLinux because they will no longer support Oracle beyond
V10gR2. In other words, Oracle on the legacy systems are supported with
a lifetime support clause, but will not be upgraded with new features.
So I have moved Oracle Data Bases to zLinux for the newer features, V11
and RAC. Additionally, I have also consolidated servers to move the
Oracle data bases to zLinux.
Would you be interested in an assessment ?

Hi
Are you seeing a fair number of shops running Oracle on Linux on
Z and if so have the results been favorable? The question comes about
because....
My management is hearing that when people move servers over to
the Z under Linux they are mostly moving servers that have very little
usage already and that databases like Oracle are staying put on the
other platforms such as Solaris in my case, giving them the impression
that the z/Linux cannot handle this. I know there are some situations
where this may be true but I do not believe on a whole this is
necessarily true. What do you think!
Thanks,
Terry
