Upgrade SLES8 > 9 with oracle 9i and SSA ERP 2007-01-24 - By gj
Back Hi Chaps & Chapettes
I am planning to upgrade a server from SLES8 to SLES9, with an oracle instance and some erp software on board.
Is the installers "upgrade" option safe ?
Would I be better going straight to SLES10 ?
I have no great urge to do this upgrade, but sadly SSA (Now infor) and Veritas (now Symantec) have dropped SLES8 Support, and the latest Oracle/Linux agent will not work on SLES8. on a side note if anyone is backing up oracle to a Backup Exec 11d server from SLES8 please let me know how ;-)
Back to the question at hand, I can possibly get a lower spec`d server to hold replicate SLES8/9i and test on, but if the upgrade is really solid do I need to bother ?
Thanks
Geraint
