Issue/Introduction

Running DLP from an Oracle 19c Enterprise installed on Solaris.

Per Oracle, the Oracle Database is supported on Solaris.
Is there a database template designed for Solaris?

 

Resolution

Per our Tech Docs, yes, you can run the database on platforms supported by the Oracle database software.
See the following Tech Doc:

Running Oracle 19c Standard Edition 2 Software on Alternate Platforms

From that Tech Doc:

"You can run the Oracle 19c Standard Edition 2 software on platforms supported by the Oracle database software. See the Oracle documentation for a list of supported platforms and information on installing the database software:

https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/install-and-upgrade.html

Obtain the installation files, CPUs, and RUs for your particular platform from Oracle.

If you run the database software on an alternate platform you can use the database templates that Symantec provides. However, you must update paths in the template to be compatible with your platform and database software. Symantec recommends that you use the Linux version of the database template. The Linux template uses elements (for example, forward slashes [/] for directories) most similar to alternate platforms."

This would apply to the Oracle Enterprise database as well.
