Roger,

   We haven't had any problems with Oracle 9i on Solaris 10.  However,
we've had some very interesting problems running Oracle 10g on Solaris
10 with zones.  In particular, the changing of the number of CPU's has
given us some problems.  In our installation, the SA had us install
Oracle in the global zone and then created local zones for the
individual databases.  He was upset that he couldn't keep the global
zone read only because Oracle wanted to write files there (the lock
files were the first of many issues that we ran into).  Zones seem like
a wonderful thing for the SA's, not so great for the DBA's.

 

Good luck,

Hi,

 

Is 9i supported with Solaris 10? 

Any comments on running two instances of oracle on two different zones
in a SUN V490 server?

 

Thanks,

Roger Xu
