All, Here's a heads up for any of you using TDP for Oracle on Solaris.. (I'm not sure about AIX).. There is a Tivoli PMR 77023 out for TDP and Oracle 8.1.7. (Oracle bug 1529085). TDP with MTS worked for us at Oracle 8.1.6.3 (initial deployment) , but stopped working at 8.1.7. Another customer has reported this issue from 8.1.6. We were extremely fortunate to choose a config that worked. Oracle and Tivolis are talking regarding this, but basically do not use MTS with 8.1.7 LONDON Tel: +44(0) 207 547 4917 Fax +44(0) 207 650 7917 Mobile +44(0) 468 361-885 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- This e-mail may contain confidential and/or privileged information.
