I hear you. Some one came up with the idea that 30+ HPUX 10.20, Oracle 7.3.3 systems could be updated to HPUX 11.x, Oracle 8.1.7 in less than 36 hours, with only 2 dba's and 2 sysadms, remotely. I shudder to think of the psychoactive compound dosages that led to this conclusion. Oh well, I've

We just had someone from Oracle in yesterday who said a) it will be a 9.0.2 feature b) 9.0.2 won't be out until June, 2002 Unfortunately they are still holding fixed to forcing me to come in on Christmas weekend to upgrade to 8.1.7. For no good reason. Forcing me to cancel the plans I've had

If I were you I would find a conflict during your testing against the new version. If confronted with a problem, few managers will want to press on and put the production system at risk. Some folks would say this is passive aggression. I'd remind them it is preferable to outright aggression.
