To ugrade from 9.2.0.6 to 10.2.0.2 does SAP have to be unicode?

[Former Member]

We have a Netweaver 04 - 640 non-unicode system.

Can I upgrade this to Oracle 10g?

Hello William,

yes you can upgrade your database to oracle 10gR2.

For more information take a look at sapnote #720886 or sapnote #858869 and #949116.

> Downward-compatible release for SAP Kernel 4.6D_EXT/SAP Kernel 6.40

> Only Oracle Version 10.2 as of patch set 10.2.0.2 is released for these SAP kernel releases.

Unfortunately you didn't tell us the platform.

Regards

Stefan

As long as you don't use doublebyte characters - yes.

Carefully check note 695899 - Multibyte character set in SAP-R/3

Yes you can upgrade Database to 10.2 (independent of SAP system).
