Hi Carlos, I'm still not clear from the email thread why the customer needs RHEL 4 ,unless it's currently RHEL 4 on Intel, and they want to eliminate that - we really do prefer that a newer kernel is used, and also that 10.2.0.4 as a minimal Oracle level is used - 10.2.0.5 is also now available.

This application is running today in intel server with 02 QC chips. Customer wants to check performance and portability. He is evaluating possibility to migrate from intel to z10.

Why is he customer insisting on RH 4.6instead of the newer (and still supported)RH 5.4?
