Is Oracle 10.2.0.4 Supported for OTM 5.5

[Joe Patton]

Hello All,

I will go through metalink for this info, but I was wondering if anyone is running OTM 5.5 on Oracle RDBMS 10.2.0.4? I am preparing to apply the April 2009 Critical Patch Update to the client and RDBMS Oracle homes in our OTM environments. We are currently at version 10.2.0.3. The terminal quarterly Critical Patch Update for Oracle 10.2.0.3 was the January 2009 CPU. We are currently at OTM 5.5 CU5 RU3 in all of our OTM environments. If I want to apply the April 2009 CPU, I would have to update the database servers and client installs on the app servers to version 10.2.0.4. Does OTM 5.5 CU5 support Oracle 10.2.0.4?

Re: Is Oracle 10.2.0.4 Supported for OTM 5.5

I found my answer in the "OTM 5.5 Technical Architecture" document. Section 2(Supporting Software) lists the following for Oracle 10g:

10gR2 (10.2.x.x)
32 bit or 64 bit

Enterprise Edition

So, it looks like any 10.2.x.x version is supported. I am going to apply the 10.2.0.4 patch set and April 2009 Critical Patch Update to our DEV environment on Monday(4/20).

Joe,

FYI - the Technical Architecture guide tends to stay generic and OTM is very specific on the versions of the infrastructure products supported, including the DB patch version.

I'm sure you're past this now, but in the future I definitely recommend running it past Oracle Support, just to ensure you're safe.

(BTW - I haven't seen any issues with 10.2.0.4 myself.)
