I am in a bit of bind here and am wondering if anyone can help. Here is my environment:
OS AIX 5.2 64-bit kernel Oracle 9.2.0.5 64-bit Oracle 8.1.7.0.0 32-bit (I have both versions of Oracle running and have databases at both levels) TDP for Oracle 5.2 64-bit The problem I am running into is that database backups for 9i run fine. When it comes to running 8i backups they fail. I am guessing this is because of 32-bit oracle trying to use 64-bit TDP. My question is can I have both TDP 32-bit and 64-bit running at the same time? If so, do I need to be doing some special configuration? What kind of problems should I expect? Is there a work around solution to use 64-bit TDP libraries without having to install 32-bit TDP code? Any insights would be helpful. Thank you, Ram
