Oralce 11g compatiablity for Non-Unicode.

[Former Member]

Hi,

At present we are using Oracle 10.2.0.2.0 database for SAP Product, EhP4 for ERP 6.0.

It is a non-Unicode system.

It will be helpful to know whether SAP supports 11g with Non-Unicode systems during database upgrade and after upgrade.

Are there any dependencies with respect to Support package level for database upgrade from 10g?

Regards,

Just as additional notice:

If you connect a Java system (such as an Enterprise Portal) you have to migrate to Unicode:

yes, Oracle 10 and 11 both support non-unicode.

Check

Note 1398634 - Oracle database 11g: Integration in SAP environment

Note 1478350 - Oracle 11g Support on UNIX: 7.0/7.01-Based SAP Systems

and read the database upgrade guides (http://service.sap.com/instguides --> Database Upgrades --> Oracle)

Hi,

In the mentioned notes, Upgrade guides, SDN Oracle site, the information/dependencies info related to Unicode and Non-Unicde is very minimal.

Other dependencies are well informed.
