How do we determine the version of the Oracle CLIENT software??

I am sure someone in a large organization has had to deal with this...
We have hundreds of machines in our environment and over the years have loaded the Oracle client software on many... So now I am looking at implementing the July set of Oracle Security patches and there are patches for the Client machines in this release...
Looking at our list, we have machines with oracle 8, 9 and 10 (and almost every subversion known to Oracle) Clients out there... and of course each of these versions and sub-version use a different patch for windows...
so the question is, is there a quick way of identify exactly what version of the software is loaded... preferably programmatically... Running SQL*Plus on each machine manually is probably not an option.
We already have software that can scan each machine identify if a specific program is loaded and it's size and maybe pull the contents... (I know there is a $ORACLE_HOME/inventory/ContentsXML/comps.xml file in 10g that might tell us what we need to know, but I don't know if it goes back to 8/8i or not...)
This would also help me plan a migration plan for some of these older clients also...
Thanks.
Michael

This is a little late, but may be it will help someone else in the future.
There may be an easier way, but this is what works for me.
Log into ADI. Go to the Request Center. Click the ‘tool’ icon.
It looks like a hammer and screwdriver.
On the next screen, look in the bottom left corner.
It will show the version of ADI.
HTH,

  • How does one determine which version of the runtime installed?

    I am trying to distinguish whether or not a particular language version of java 1.4.0 is installed on a certain computer. As you may know, one can download the English language version of the runtime or All languages including English. Is there anyway to easily determine which language version is installed?

  • How do you determine what version of  the Darwin Kernel, iOS 4.3.3 uses in iPod Touch?

    I tried looking this up in "Settings" > "General" > "About" but it doesn't give me this information.
    Someone told me that he has Darwin Kernel 11.0.0 for his iPod Touch running iOS 4.3.3, but his iPod Touch is jailbroken. My iPod Touch isn't jailbroken, and I want to know what version of Darwin Kernel it is running. On Wikipedia, someone documented that the Darwin Kernel 11 begins with iOS 5--for a jailbroken iOS 5 device. I find this odd if my buddy has Darwin Kernel 11.0.0 for his device running iOS 4.3.3. Well, as all intelligent people know, we can't trust Wikipedia completely.

  • How do you reset the version on the ipod

    I have a 30g ipod photo and a 30g ipod video. This is my issue, my photo has version 1.2.1. I have a pioneer navi unit with ipod control and it can no longer read my ipod. My video ipod still works and it has version 1.1.1 on it. I reseted my photo ipod but it does not update the version on the ipod. I have also tried to download the old updater but since i have itunes 7, it will not work. What should I do? Install the original software on another PC and hope that itunes 6 and an old updater will work or will the new sowftware on the ipod override the installation of the old software? I really do not want to upload 3000 plus songs again and I am afraid to update my video ipod because it's the only one that works.

    Gee, I really am sorry I ticked you off tonight. I know that 1600/40=40 but the reason why I put this discussion up in the first place is because my calculator wasn't working, NOT because I wanted to start a fight. Unless you know how to reset the calculator, back off Mr. Knowitall. >=P

  • Solaris 11 IPS:  How do you post multiple versions of the same package?

    How do you post multiple versions of the same software package on a single IPS instance(port)? Oracle was able to do it here with versions 151 and 175 of S11:
    http://pkg.oracle.com/solaris/release/
    Unfortunately, based on my searches, no where in the documentation (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/solaris11/technologies/ips-323421.html) does it explain to the development community how this is done. The best I can do is create pkg repo instances on different ports to host each different software version.
    We are trying to deploy an IPS repository for our drivers and utilities that our customers can link to and pull updates from. We have been able to post a software package to the repository using the command:
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 -d ./ Appv1.p5m
    This posts the package on the IPS repository instance at port 1234 on the server. However, we would like to post multiple versions of the package on the server at the same URL. Why the same URL? So that our customers and end-users need only point to a single URL to pull down our software rather than having to add a new URL to the publisher list each time we have an update. We want at least 5 of the previous software versions to be available on the server. Posting each version of the application or driver on a different IPS instance on a different port will require customers to add multiple URLs to their publisher list and they also will not be able to initiate remote scans for updates.
    Has anybody been able to do this? Is any documentation forthcoming?

    dhduvall: Thanks for your response. Yes, one would think that as long as the version numbers are different, you should be able to accumulate multiple versions of a package in a repository. It looks like Oracle has done it in their S11 repository unfortunately, as far as I know, they have not shared the steps on how to do this. I would like to publish two versions of the same package. I.E. two different manifests with two different fmri.pkg version strings and two different binaries.
    If I publish one package after another like this:
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 Appv1.p5m
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 Appv2.p5m
    Then only the second package shows up in the repository, as if it over-wrote the first one.
    Running pkgsend with two manifest, like this:
    pkgsend publish -s http://localhost:1234 Appv1.p5m Appv2.p5m
    Will cause pkgsend to combine the packages and manifests as if they were a single package... not what I am trying to do.
    Both approaches are complete without errors but neither achieves what I am trying to do.
    alan.pae: Thank you. Unfortunately, the link didn't really help. I've read Oracle's white papers and IPS developer guide so I'm familiar with the topics covered.
    Lex: Yes, I know. I specified the versions in the pkg.fmri value string.

  • How do I have multiple versions of the same .chm?

    Our developers recently were required to make changes to an earlier version of our software (thank goodness for backups). So I'm having to revert to that earlier version, make changes, and create a revised .chm. HOWEVER, I already had completed the upcoming release's .chm and don't want to lose all of those changes. To make matters more complicated, I also have requests for changes to the Help for the future release.
    So, how does everyone have multiple versions of the .chm on their system at the same time and keep them separate, yet compile the right files with the right version? I had thought I could just create a new folder with the files that changed for the various versions, but updating them in Word 2007 is not a pretty proposition. I'll then have to import them in and replace the "old" ones. There has to be an easier way! I'm sure other people do this on a regular basis, but this is the first time I've had to go back a version, maintain the next version, and start work on a yet-to-be-released version all at the same time.

    It never ceases to amaze me how questions on the forum are like buses, none for an hour then three come along. Not your fault but this was asked just a couple of days ago.
    When your developers issue a new version you need to save a copy of the source, we just zip it up. Then you carry on editing for the next version and zip that up and go again.
    Then when a change is required to an older version, you dig it up, amend it and zip it again.
    Not sure how it works with source control. The above is easier and reliable, assuming you manage it tightly.

  • How to create a generalized version of the detailed polygons?

    How to create a generalized version of the detailed polygons?
    I have a table of detailed polygons (100+ vertices) and I want to get generalized version of these polygons.
    For example, assume I have a polygon with 100 vertices. Distance between vertex n and n+1 is 1.0.
    I want to get geometry (generalized polygon, line or point) where distance between vertex n and n+1 is 10.0 or more (I want vertices to be considered as one vertex if distance between them is less then 10.0).
    Is it possible to create generalized version of polygons on the fly?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Scenario A:
    If all of your polygons have no interaction among them (No polygon shares any boundary with any other ones).
    In this case you can use the sdo_util.simplify in 10g to reduce the vertices in your polygons which returns new polygon geometries on the fly.
    If you found that simplify is not doing exactly what you want, you can always roll out your own implementation using PL/SQL or the new SDOAPI JGeoemtry class in Java. Both will give you complete access to the coordinate arrays in a polygon and update them back to the database after you have simplified them in your code.
    Scenario B:
    If your polygons share boundaries, then the above methods will not work since the simplification process may not preserve the topology among your polygons. What you can do then is to use the Java topo package to create a new topology by adding all of your polygons to to an empty topology (which you first create in the database and then load into memory using oracle.spatial.topo.TopoMap). Once you have a topology built in the memory, you can use methods such as oracle.spatial.topo.TopoMap.changeEdgeCoords() to simplify the edges of your polygons. You can then recreate the simplified polygons from the topology. This is just a rough guide; for more details you need to check out the java doc for the various packages mentioned above which are shipped with 10g spatial.

  • How to tell the version of the ORacle 9iAS?

    How to find the version information about the Oracle 9iAS (Not OC4J) from Enterprise Manager? In windows, we can always use help-->about to get the version number, how do I know the version of the application server is 9.0.2 or 9.0.3?
    thanks

    AS rel 2 is 9.0.2, never 9.0.3. But AS suite has many many product components that has different version number strings depending on your installations and your set of installed Patch Sets (e.g. you could have Infrastructure 9.0.2.3.0 and Core RSFs 9.0.1.4.0a)
    OC4J has been released as 9.0.3, next full AS is 9.0.4 (according to Metalink but who knows, maybe it'll be 10.0.1, 10.1.4 or whatever sounds marketingishly good)

  • How can I determine what dns server the wifi client use within airport

    How can I determine what dns server the wifi client use within airport
    I want to use dns servers other then the one that airport extreme is using. For example I got the 172.16.1.1 (the default gateway - airport extreme), but I want to use the office dns servers, that are in a 10.x.x.x range.
    Is there a possibility?
    Thanks and happy eastern

    The Airport Extreme uses the DNS servers assigned by the network that it connects to. Is you Airport Extreme on the 10.x.x.x network? if it is then you are already using the 10.x.x.x DNS servers. Check your Airport Extreme with the Airport Utility and you will see in the Internet tab, the DNS servers used. The devices connecting to the Airport Extreme are assigned a DNS address of the Airport Extremes IP, In your case 172.16.1.1 but all DNS searches and resolution are done with the DNS servers you see in the Airport Extreme.
    If you want to use some other DNS then you can override in the Airport Extreme which will be used by all devices connecting too the Airport Extreme, Or you can edit the DNS address in each devices wireless settings.
