Source and Target OS and DBMS Compatibility
The source and target must be running the same DBMS/Operating System combination (for example, Oracle 10.2.0.4 on RHEL 5.2) in order to successfully provision a VDB to the target. If the DBMS versions are compatible, the OS version on a target host can be different from the OS version on the source host.
Supported DBMS Versions
- Oracle 9.2.0.8
- Oracle 10.2
- Oracle 11.1
- Oracle 11.2
- Oracle 12.1
- Oracle 12.2
Oracle 9.2.0.8
The Delphix Engine has limited support for Oracle 9.2.0.8 and cannot link to a database that has a compatibility setting lower than 9.2.0.8.
Delphix features supported with Oracle 9.2.0.8:
| dSource | VDB | |
|---|---|---|
SnapSync | Yes | No |
LogSync | No | No |
Rewind | Not Applicable | No |
| V2P (virtual to physical) | Yes | No |
| RAC | No | No |

Oracle 10.2.0.4
The Delphix Engine does not support Oracle 10.2.0.4 databases using Automatic Storage Management (ASM) that do not have the patch set for Oracle Bug 7207932. This bug is fixed in patch set 10.2.0.4.2 onward.
