9.2.0.6 Solaris We had veritas installed on the weekend to take advantage of the veritas extension of the oracle disk manager(odm) (new version of quick i/o). It requires you to relink the disk manager library as follows #rm ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm9.so #ln -s /opt/VRTSodm/lib/libodm.so ${ORACLE_HOME} /lib/libodm9.so now, i have to revert because they screwed up installing veritas. The revert is as follows #rm ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm9.so #ln -s ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodmd9.so ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodm9.so I unfortunately deleted ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib/libodmd9.so Will a relink all rebuild the library. The only valid backup of the ORACLE_HOME will be from a 9.2.0.5 home as the patch was done also. Thanks Mike -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
