as we can see there is no difference so the queries provided gives no
useful info.... any more suggestions?
Thanks

Hi Ram
I have used that query as well, I dont want to know if the database was
created in 32 bit, I want to know if it currently runs in 64 bit mode, that
is if UTLIRP.SQL has been run.
I will test all your sugegstion anyways in a few hours time and let you
know
Thanks!

Try this. I used this query long time ago:
/* To identify whether a database was created as 32-bit or 64-bit,
execute the following SQL statement: */
select
case
when INSTR(metadata,'B047') > 1 then 'The Database is 64 Bit.'
when INSTR(metadata,'B023') > 1 then 'The Database is 32 Bit.'
end as Result
from sys.kopm$ ;
/*
If the output references the string 'B023' , then it indicates that the
database was created as 32-bit.
If the output references the string 'B047' then it indicates that the
database was created as 64-bit.

Hi Ram
I already tested that, once a database is migrated to 64 bit and
utlirp.sql is NOT executed that query returns 64 bit too!

Hi
Does anyone know if a database is currently in 64 or 32 bit?
IHAC migrated a few database a couple of weeks ago from Linux x86 to
Linux x86_64 and they unsure if utlirp.sql is run in all of them.
Anyone know how to check if the database is running in 64 bit mode?
All I have found is how to check binary bitness but not the database.
Thanks
