Never heard or ArcSDE.  But I would not let them install apps on the
database server.  No real reason to do so.  It would force multiple Oracle
homes, would open up the door to allowing them access to the server (you
*know* they will want full access to the server), and just complicate
managing the server.
 
You have an app server machine.  Force them to use it.
 
just my 2 cents.

Subject: ESRI ArcSDE application


We're working on an ArcSde migration from sqlserver to oracle. i believe the
version is 8.2
i was wondering if  anyone had  any gotchas  or  any information that we
shoudl know. mind you the consultant we have  has no clue of either unix nor
oracle.
Also the consultants are recommending installing app on the database server
instead of  an app server. This is something i dont like and if anyone has
done so reason why is it necessary ?.
 
 
 
Thanks
