HP OpenVMS and Installation-Specific Issues and Restrictions

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 Oracle8i Release 2 (8.1.6) and Oracle8i Release 3 (8.1.7) and Oracle9i Release 1 (9.0.1) to Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.2). To migrate from an Oracle database earlier than these releases, you must first upgrade to an Oracle8i Release 2 or Release 3 or to an Oracle9i Release 1, and then follow the steps outlined in the document ora_rdbms:readmemigvms.doc to migrate to Oracle9i 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 Oracle9i 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.

Oracle9i 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.

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.

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 Oracle9i, 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:
