[Spacewalk-list] Connect Spacewalk (2.2) to Oracle 12.1 database

[Souvignier, Daniel]

Hi,

 

thanks for your answer, I'll try that as soon as possible and report back if
it worked. To connect to an upgraded database with just new connection data,
I run spacewalk-setup again with skip populate database setting, right?

 

Regards,

Daniel

Yes, from Spacewalk 2.3 and higher, or Spacewalk 2.2 provided by Oracle.





I read in  <http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E64575/E64575.pdf>
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E37670_01/E64575/E64575.pdf that it is supported,
but in   <http://spacewalk.redhat.com/yum/2.2/RHEL/6/x86_64/>
http://spacewalk.redhat.com/yum/2.2/RHEL/6/x86_64/ the packages for 12.1 are
missing (like oracle-lib-compat and others). Our dbas want to upgrade all
our databases to 12.1, so it would be great if we could upgrade the
Spacewalk DB as well. Thanks! 

 

We haven't (yet) upgraded the Instant Client requirements, but the 11.2.0.4
Instant Client is 100% certified with 12c database. You continue to use the
existing oracle-instantclient-11.2.0.4 RPMs on the Spacewalk server but you
can switch to a 12c database on the backend.

 

Cheers,

Avi
