Release 12 (12.0.4 and higher, 12.1.1 and higher) with Database versions 11.2.0.2 and 11.2.0.3:
- Linux x86-64 (SLES 11)
- IBM: Linux on System z (SLES 11)
The certification of R12 with 11.2.0.3 on IBM: Linux on System z (including SLES 11) is in progress.
These certifications cover the above 64-bit operating systems. There are no plans to certify 32-bit SLES 11 (Linux x86).
Database Tier Only
These certifications cover only the E-Business Suite database tier. The application tier of the E-Business Suite is not certified with SLES 11. Customers must run the application tier on a different certified operating system (such as SLES 10). If you plan to use SLES 11 for an EBS application tier server, please contact me to discuss your business case.
