I prefer RedHat, but not because of performance. Because their support actually cares about me! We had SuSE a few years ago. We ran into a problem with the OS on our database server and found there was an issue with some library (not too sure anymore). We contacted support via phone, email, indirectly through our scales rep and never heard from them. When it came time to renew our license, we dumped them. BTW - We do not have any noticeable issues with OS performance with RedHat. -- Ron Reidy Lead DBA Array BioPharma, Inc. -----Original Message----- From: oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:oracle-l-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of The Human Fly Sent: Monday, March 06, 2006 7:34 AM To: oracle-l Subject: oracle with red hat linux Hello list, One of our client wants to run his databse on red hat linux, therefore, could any one advice me that which linux is give better performance, from the below list, if any has any further idea, please, advice me. red hat advancedserver 4 or suse 9/10 server or slackware -- Best Regards, Syed Jaffar Hussain 8i,9i & 10g, OCP DBA Banque Saudi Fransi, Saudi Arabia http://jaffardba.blogspot.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------- "Winners don't do different things.
