Oracle Net
Requirements

Oracle Net on HP OpenVMS is developed and certified using

Hewlett-Packard

TCP/IP Services for OpenVMS (UCX)

.

If you wish

to use the TCP/IP protocol adapter for Oracle Net, you should have
version 5.1 ECO 4 or higher of TCP/IP Services for HP OpenVMS Alpha
installed

.

TCP/IP protocol stacks from other vendors may work with

Oracle, but customers use these products at their own risk

.

Any TCP/IP

problems that cannot be reproduced using TCP/IP Services for
HP OpenVMS Alpha will be referred to the TCP/IP vendor.

Vendor-provided protocol services are usually upward compatible, so
that existing applications will continue to work without modification

.

Thus, later releases of TCP/IP are upward compatible with Oracle Net,
provided that the vendor-specified Application Programming Interface
(API) does not change with new releases.

Oracle Database
Server

Oracle9i Enterprise Edition server release 2 (9.2.0.2.0)

Oracle database server can reside on any supported platform.
