Question 2 oracle version in unix application server

Hi,

Ive got to 2 Oracle Versions in the application server. Currently running on 8.0.5, and I've recently installed 8.1.7. I would like to ask if it is possible upon restarting the server, to set the default environment to be pointing to 8.1.7 instead of 8.0.5?

thnks

The oracle 'environment' that most influences the application basically the ORACLE_HOME and the ORACLE_SID variables. In your application startup, you may be setting these variables to some value (such as ORACLE_HOME=/oracle805). You have to change this to the new oracle home directory and your application will startup with the new oracle environment.

There are possibly other variables that will also have to be changed, but these might be specific to your site/requirements. I have just mentioned the most obvious changes.
