  • 1.  DevTest on Oracle Linux?

    Posted Jan 18, 2016 05:37 PM

    I know it is not part of the supported Operating Systems list, but does any of you guys have installed (or tried to install) DevTest on Oracle Linux? if so, what can you say about it? I suppose it's still Linux after all so should not be a problem. 

     

    Thank you so much in advance!!

    Patricio,

     

    I am verifying with development if any problems have been reported with running on an Oracle Linux system.

    If it is not in our System Requirements documentation, it is not supported.  You can use it, and most likely it will work,  but if there is any nuances with Oracle Linux OS and DevTest, you would need to use a supported OS.

     

     

    Please file an Idea on this Communities if you want support specifically for Oracle Linux.

    Hi Marcy!

    Did you get any reports from development on this one?

     

    Thanks!

    I would open an Idea on this Communities board and request this as a feature request.

    If the question is about Oracle Enterprise Linux, rather than using an Oracle database on Linux, then as far as I'm aware, Oracle Enterprise Linux is still a rebadging of RedHat Enterprise Linux.

     

    If this is still the case, then it will work. It worked the last time I tried it (which was a few years ago).

    I made the same query last year, and development agreed w/Rick (It's Red Hat at the core).  We successfully executed a POC with DevTest running on Oracle Linux.
