HP OpenVMS and Installation-Specific Issues and Restrictions
CD-ROM Pre-installation Requirements 3-3
Upgrading and Migrating
If you are upgrading an existing system, then some issues may exist that exceed the
scope of this manual.
It is possible to migrate Oracle8 i Release 2 (8.1.6) and Oracle8 i Release 3 (8.1.7) and
Oracle9 i Release 1 (9.0.1) to Oracle9 i Release 2 (9.2.0.2)
.
To migrate from an Oracle
database earlier than these releases, you must first upgrade to an Oracle8 i Release 2
or Release 3 or to an Oracle9 i Release 1, and then follow the steps outlined in the
document ora_rdbms:readmemigvms.doc to migrate to Oracle9 i Release 2 (9.2.0.2).
File Systems
As noted previously (refer to "Oracle9i Release 2 Dependency on ODS-5 Disk
Structure" on page 2-3), the Oracle9 i release 2 software must be installed on an
ODS-5 formatted disk. The datafiles and redolog files, however, can be placed on
ODS-2 formatted disks as well.
Oracle9 i server must be able to verify that files have been written to disk. File
systems that do not support this verification are not supported for use with Oracle
databases, although Oracle software can be installed on them.
Optimal Flexible Architecture
Optimal Flexible Architecture (OFA), the Oracle standard set of configuration
guidelines for Oracle databases, is not supported on HP OpenVMS Alpha.
Using Hummingbird Exceed
If you use the Hummingbird Exceed X Windows emulator while installing and
using Oracle9
i , then set the window manager to run in
Native
mode so that
Microsoft Windows functions as the window manager
.
Refer to your Exceed
documentation for instructions on configuring the window manager.
Following are common problems with the Hummingbird Exceed X Windows
emulator:
Note:
Because of this requirement for verification, third party
software that creates one or more virtual disks in memory
MUST
NOT BE USED for datafiles.
