RE: Re[2]: WHICH UNIX FOR ORACLE?
Well, I will put in my two cents since everyone else is. 1.HP-UX 2.HP-UX 3.HP-UX 4.Solaris Oracle works equally well on both of them (IMO) but HP provides you with better support, better hardware, better reliability, etc. Course, none of that is free. All in all I have not been disappointed per say with Solaris (which is a good thing cause I will be working with it ALOT from here on it) but I have had far less issues with HP. -Original Message- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, April 04, 2002 12:09 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Another shot across the bow: Hp-UX if you like to sleep at night Solaris if you want speed and sleepless nights Aix if neither of the above is of any value in your life Linux if both are valuable $$$ are a consideration Dick Goulet Reply Separator Author: Gene Sais [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 4/4/2002 9:24 AM here go the wars :) 1.

RE: Re[2]: WHICH UNIX FOR ORACLE?
My experiance is just the opposite : 1. Solaris 2. Solaris 3. Solaris 4. HP-UX 5. AIX 6. Digital Unix 7. SCO Unix Solaris has much better features and is more reliable as per my experience. For eg. only Solaris provides the option to use Asynchronous I/O for file systems as well as raw devices. Asynchronous I/O on HP will b used only while accessing raw devices. I think that the Oracle software is primarily written on Solaris these days.

Re: Re[2]: WHICH UNIX FOR ORACLE?
Dick, I agree completely with your #1. We run on all of these platforms here (the Linux is running off my desktop). I have not had any Oracle support calls on the AIX system, but it is a very lightly used db. IBM's hw support response is awesome though. I put it above HP's which is pretty good for our area. (Location caveat: I am in Sioux Falls, SD - ANY call will most likely be a minimum of 4HRS wait probably 8 depending on the vendor). I haven't dealt with Sun support here. As mentioned in other posts, I am my support for Linux. We met with Oracle and HP reps back in 2001. They did confirm that HP is the development platform for Oracle, and that 64bit is being worked on both the PA-RISC and IA64 processors on HP. So... 1. HP 2. AIX (fast hw support in the boonies is cool) 3. Sun (Have fits with ksh on Sun it doesn't work the same as the other two) 4. Linux (May move up if had 3rd party 7X24 support available) Rodd Holman On Thu, 2002-04-04 at 14:08, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Another shot across the bow: Hp-UX if you like to sleep at night Solaris if you want speed and sleepless nights Aix if neither of the above is of any value in your life Linux if both are valuable $$$ are a consideration Dick Goulet Reply Separator Author: Gene Sais [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: 4/4/2002 9:24 AM here go the wars :) 1.
