Hi Del I could see oracle SPARC support API v8.1 but BA client not released for v8.1. What is the purpose of releasing API support for v8.1 without BA client ?
Means no BA client backup supported but still support TDP for oracle ? TDP also require BA client to install. Please advise if you have any background.
