No hpux no windows so far ...

Linux 32 bit and 64 bit ... solaris 64 bit both sparc and x86-64 ...

Maybe they even got the 10.2.0.4 patchset out for solaris x86-64 by
now?

Speaking of Solaris, what will happen to it? Will it survive the demise
of SUN Microsystems or will it perish and die, just like VMS did?
BTW, John, your nickname suggests that you're using HP-UX. Why do you car
about Solaris?

We actually are now running all our stuff on linux these days and we
ditched RAC a while ago. Just finishing an upgrade to OEL 5.4 on all
our systems.

Sometimes google uses my name in postings other times it sticks out
the old hpuxrac thing ...

At one point we were seriously thinking about Solaris x86_64 but I was
not exactly convinced that maintenance on that platform was going to
be provided on a timely basis. Plus after I was sitting in the
audience at Open World the year Larry paraded all the penguins around
on stage I figured it was time to start making linux plans.

In the old days new releases on hpux and solaris came out first and
were well tested.

Time will tell on solaris but with 11.2 coming out on solaris before
windows that is at least promising. The new big buck Exadata machine
V2 I think is based on solaris maybe?

Thanks for the heads up. 11gR2 for Solaris x64 been on OTN for about
a month, but I just noticed that its on eDelivery now as well.
