Patch is not required if you dont use iSCSI. No, as I know, Novell had such patch long ago (from other users) and never integrated it. (I dont see how I can send patches for such purpose - no good feedbacks with them). FS are - I used reiserfs (with 'notail' option) in sles9 and ext3 in sles10. We experimented with xfs @ sles10, and it looks promising, but I'd better avoid it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ciro Iriarte" <[email protected]> To: "Alexei_Roudnev" <[email protected]> Cc: "Arun Singh" <[email protected]>; <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, May 07, 2009 11:35 AM Subject: Re: [suse-oracle] Oracle + SLES 10.2 - any issues? > 2009/5/7 Alexei_Roudnev <[email protected]>: >> I don't have problems with >> SLES9 SP3 kernel 287 (some known bug exist but it is rare to affect >> anything) >> SLES9 SP4 kernel >= 312 - VERY STABLE SYSTEM >> SLES10 SP2 x86_64 kernel 2.6.16.60-0.37_f594963d-smp #1 SMP Mon Mar 23 >> 13:39:48 UTC 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux - VERY STABLE SYSTEM >> >> (But it worked on few previous klernels as well). >> >> Don't use: >> >> SLES9 SP4 kernels <= 312 >> SLES10 SP2 original kernel >> (Technically, I strongly advice against using any SLES* SP* before first >> upgrade because of the poor beta testing in Novell. >> Most such kernels was broken, examples >> sles9 release >> sles10 release >> sles10 sp2 >> sles9 sp4 >> >> in all cases, 1 - 3 updates after the release fixed the problem.
