Oracle Step-by-Step and for Free

December 1, 2010

Pat that turnkey stuffed tummy. Flip open your trusty non-HP laptop and dig into “Complete Checklist for Manual Upgrades to 11gR2.” If you are not an Oracle fan, you need to know that the “11gR2” is short hand for the most recent version of Larry Ellison’s favorite data management money generating system.

This link will yield a useful, explicit set of instructions for upgrading to Oracle 11gR2. Looking through these steps, we found something curious. Out of 41 steps, step 39 is upgrading Oracle Text, i.e. the step that deals with search functions. This comes after updating Oracle-Supplied Account passwords at step 38. Search is either really important, like the whipped cream on a banana split or not too important, more like the napkin the soda jerk points to when you have paid.

We’re surprised that the search-related part of this upgrade comes so far down on the list. Is this indicative of the priority searching takes in Oracle’s universe? Alternatively, maybe search is so important that it is the finishing touch on an outstanding, scalable, XML savvy, high performance system? This installation information may carry you into tomorrow now.
