Re: Keeping Up-to-Date With Oracle

[Joe Hood <joe hood gmail com>]

Seems Oracle differs between plain old 9i database and the 11i
application suite.  I'm looking for where Oracle says to go ahead with
errata updates with the 11i suite but haven't found much.

I'm referring to Metalink #234783.1 which lists in their "Requirements
for All Red Hat Operationg Systems."
