[Feb 21, 2008 Update: Corrected introduction from R12 to 11i. Argh...]
Three new 64-bit database tier only certifications are now available for E-Business Suite Release 11i: Oracle Enterprise Linux 5, Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, and Sun Solaris.

Prerequisites
- E-Business Suite Release 11i 11.5.9 CU2 or 11.5.10.2
- Oracle Database Server 10gR2 version 10.2.0.3
- Sun Solaris x64
- Oracle Enterprise Linux 5 (64-bit) on x86-64 architectures
- Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5 (64-bit) on x86-64 architectures
- Oracle Applications Release 11i with Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0) Interoperability Note (Metalink Note 362203.1)
- Using Oracle Applications with a Split Configuration Database Tier on Oracle 10g Release 2 (Metalink Note 369693.1)

Jorge,
Oops. What a difference a single keystroke makes. Thanks for catching that typo. All references to Linux 6 removed now. ;-)

Steven

Hello there
I gasped when i read "Oracle Enterprise Linux 6", but you corrected it in the second bullet.
Besides that, kudos for the effort.

Hello Steven,
We're currently on 11.5.10.2/DB 10.2.0.3 on RH Linux 4.0. We are in the process of upgrading to RH Linux 4.0 64-bit for the Database Server. Are there any compelling reasons to consider RH Linux 5.0?
Thanks,
Sriram

Hi, Sriram,
Sorry for the delay in responding; I've been abroad for the last five weeks.
I circulated your original query internally. This bounced around our various Linux and platforms engineering teams. The upshot of these discussions was that there appeared to be few *functional* reasons to upgrade, but thatthe primary motivation for upgrading to the latest version would be to stay current for support reasons (i.e. avoid falling outside of the support window).
Regards,
Steven
