Hi all,

 

I'm planning to upgrade our UV installation later this year primarily
due to the age of the hardware (it's just over 5 years old).   We aren't
having any serious performance problems.  We're currently running UV
10.2.7 on RedHat EL 5.1 32-bit and typically max out around 100
concurrent users.  Since I probably won't upgrade again for another 5
years, I'd like to make the upgrade as future-proof as possible.
Because UV is still a 32-bit app, though, I'm wondering if there is any
real-world benefit to switching to 64-bit RedHat when I upgrade.  I know
the 64-bit kernel will remove the 4GB memory ceiling, but AFAIK, there
is also a special 32-bit kernel for that.  We also link UV to MS SQL via
a 3rd party ODBC driver and accept JDBC and UOJ connections.  I have to
make sure that functionality isn't broken, and I recall someone recently
posting that a 64-bit OS broke ODBC for them.  Is anyone else
successfully using ODBC, JDBC, and UOJ with 64-bit linux?  Can anyone
point out any advantages to running UV on a 64-bit OS?

 

Thanks,

John
