OEL & 11gR2 on Intel E7500 - 32bit or 64bit?

Hi all
I am a bit confused over which bit version of Oracle Enterprise Linux and Database should I select for my server specs of:
DELL Desktop
Intel Duo core E7500 Processor
4GB RAM
Which one would be the optimum selection: x86 32bit or 64bit?
I understand whichever version is chosen needs to be the same for both OEL and DB.

Oracle 10g XE migrate from 32bit to 64bit becomes slower

Oracle 10g XE migrate from 32bit to 64bit becomes slower
Currently we have a database using Oracle 10g XE R2
(Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0)
on a linux 32bit server.
And recently we did migrate it to another 64bit linux server.
But found after migration is it running slower at 64bit server (~ 25% slower)
1. We would wonder any tuning is required on 64bit server?
Besides, as I know Oracle XE only using single core CPU for processing.
On 32bit linux the CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E31235 @ 3.20GHz
On 64bit linux the CPU is Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2470 v2 @ 2.40GHz
2. Would the CPU clock speed on a single core also made the 64bit Oracle slower?
Thanks a lot.

32 or 64 bit normally won't cause much performance difference as long as you can't use > 4GB RAM
Please note that XE can use only 1 core and 1GB memory.
According to benchmarks, Single Thread Rating of the 2 CPU really differ by around 25%. Quite consistent with your observation.
Of course, IO (i.e., disk) speed is also an important factor.

I want to buy windows 7 to download on my iMac but don't know if I need a 32bit or 64bit for parallels

How do i know which,32bit or 64bit windows7 to buy for my iMac with parallels desktop. I just got my 21.5" iMac Dec. 2011 .Intel 2.5ghz but I don't see any 32bit or 64bit info for the system anywhere or if it matters.

Home/Pro 32-bit address 3.5 GB memory.
Home 64-bit Pro addresses 16 GB memory.
Pro 64-bit addresses 192 GB memory. And 64-bit Pro has XP mode just in case you need it.
You dedicate a certain amount of memory to Parallels VM, and you have a machine that can install at least 16 GB memory. So you can actually dedicate 8 GB RAM, and thus exceed and 32-bit Windows OS ability.
In short ... to avoid re-buying Windows 7 in the future, and get XPmode, and address more than 3.5 GB RAM any time I want to ... buy 64-bit Pro once.

What's that mean?
I'm installing mysql on a newish mac dual core and have the
option of
downloading a 32 bit version or 64 bit version of mysql hummm
which ?
or where do it say on a mac if its 32 or 64 bit?
maybe core is 32 bits and I have a dual core so its 64 bits.
Could it be
that simple?

Especially with macs, they make them so simple, that when you
try to do
something slightly hard its really confusing or just doesn't
work. I

I honestly don't know what to suggest, I thought these new

Stupid question: Difference between 32bit and 64bit 10g Client?

We have an application (Informatica 8, 32bit) for which the vendors claim they only support a 32bit client. Oracle does not ship a word-size specific client for 10g. This leads me to believe that 32bit vs 64bit is really innocuous and perhaps irrelevant. For my own curiosity, is the 10g client (not Instant Client) actually 32bit or 64bit?

Hi,
Note that you can always run 32-bit apps on a 64-bit client . . . . .
There are separate clients for 32-bit and 64-bit instant clients:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html
Instant Client for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
Instant Client for Microsoft Windows 64-bit Itanium
Instant Client for Microsoft Windows (x64)
Instant Client for Linux x86
Instant Client for Linux x86-64
Instant Client for Linux Itanium
Instant Client for Linux AMD64 (32-bit and 64-bit)
Instant Client for Linux on Power (32-bit)
Instant Client for Linux on Power (64-bit)
Instant Client for z/Linux (32-bit and 64-bit)
Instant Client for Mac OS X (Intel x86)
Instant Client for Mac OS X (PPC)
Instant Client for Solaris Operating System (SPARC) (64-bit)
Instant Client for Solaris Operating System (SPARC) (32-bit)
Instant Client for Solaris x86
Instant Client for Solaris x86-64
Instant Client for HP-UX PA-RISC (64-bit)
Instant Client for HP-UX PA-RISC (32-bit)
Instant Client for AIX5L (64-bit)
Instant Client for AIX5L (32-bit)
Instant Client for HP Tru64 UNIX
Instant Client for HP-UX Itanium (64-bit)
Instant Client for HP-UX Itanium (32-bit)
Hope this helps. . .

What's different between 32bit and 64bit ?

Hi all,
What's different between 32bit and 64bit for Oracle Database 10g Release 1 ?
such as "Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.2) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)"
and "Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.0.2) for Microsoft Windows (64-bit Itanium)"
Thanks

What's different between 32bit and 64bit ? oooh, about 32 bits ;)
what is different between (x64) and (64-bit Itanium)This really is the short of question google could answer better but in a nutshell Itanium is the Intel 64bit chip (AKA the Itanic, due to its troubled history). Whereas x64 is the appelation given to AMD's 64bit Opteron chips; I believe x64 was coined by Microsoft but Sun use it as well.

32bit and 64bit oracle 9.2

Dear Guru's,
I have SAP 4.7 ext 200 with oracle 9.2 and windows 2003 standard edition all these are 32bit .Now my client wants to buy new hardware which is 64bit to implement the same version mentioned above.for SAP4.7 64bit kernel is available in SMP but I didnt find oracle 9.2 64bit .Please advice whether SAP 4.7 ext 200 can be installed with 64bit kernel and oracle 9.2 64bit available(OS win2003 64bit) on 64bit hardware or all the OS and SAP with oracle 32bit on 64bit hardware should we choose.
Best Regards,
Sanju

Well... those are the rumours - which are just that.
Itanium is a 64bit processor - yes - but it´s a totally different architecture. Those programs will NOT run on an Intel Xeon processor. The difference between those two is, that one is IA64 (Itanium-2) and the other is X86_64 (also called x64).
You will need an installation CD set for that x86_64 (or x64) - NOT for Itanium if you have an Intel Xeon processor.
Read the following notes:
960769 - Windows: Migration from 32-bit to 64-bit (x86_64)
931024 - FAQ: 64-bit platforms for Windows
Especially the second will explain the differences.
It makes no sense to install 32bit (SAP-) application software on a 64bit operating system since there are native 64bit binaries to use, without them, you won´t benefit of the 64bit hardware. You need to check, however, that 3rd party software (backup etc.) has also 64bit clients for your combination.

Does iTunes come with 32bit and 64bit install?

I have Windows 7 and it's a 32bit and 64bit Gaming Laptop G73SW.
I've done all the troubleshoot tips, which has just made my computer worse.eg all icons changed, things now missing, so probably have to do a System Retore to get it all back.
Every time i speak to Apple, they're suggestions just make my computer stuffed, iTunes takes over all my programs etc.
Simply put: Does iTunes come with a 32bit and 64bit Install??? If not i won't be using that program.
Which makes it hard for my line of work atm as an Alpha and Beta Games Tester for many Private Platforms i play on.

Well genius, it's either a 32bit or 64bit system, it cannot be both.

Install jre 32bit on 64bit system with error

Hello,
i try to install "jre-7u51-windows-i586.exe" (32bit) via CA IT Client Manager (Version 12.5) on serveral machines (64bit), OS MS Vista.
Error: .... cannot start or run due to incompatibity with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please contact the software vendor to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version is available.
manually installation works without errors.
i need jre 32bit on 64bit!
thx in advance for your friendly suggestions!

Hello gimbal2,
i agreed with my CA-Support to ask for help here, after many trys to fix the issue.
we thought it would be a nice idea to ask oracle community - perhabs somebody know how to fix this prob.
The error was reportet by "Wow64 Emulation Layer"
this behavior we face since jre-7u45.
if that diskussion rings a bell, i would be happy to get rid of my installation prob.
thx for your sympathie

Distribution kit calling 32Bit or 64Bit executable

Hello,
my CVI app distribution calls an executable that installs a hardware driver. Unfortunately, that executable (DPInst.exe) has separate versions for 32bit and 64bit OSs.
Question:
can the distribution kit (CVI 2009) be configured to call e.g.
"DPInst32.exe" when my app gets installed on a32bBit system, and
"DPInst64.exe" on a 64bit system?
or
What would be an other solution for that kind of problem?
Thanks,
Greg

Hello Eren,
thanks for you feedback. I don't want to distribute and maintain different versions for 32bit and 64 bit OS of my CVI application, just because a small USB driver of an accessory has two versions. In the meantime, I came up with a different idea.
The distribution calls an executable that
a) checks wether it runs on a 32bit or 64bit OS
b) then calls the correct DPInst.exe version
This is quite easy:
I'm using this example code to check the OS version.
with that I call this code at the end of the installation:
void main()
char path[512];
int status;
status = GetDir (path);
   if(IsWow64()) strcat(path,"\\64bit\\");
   else strcat(path,"\\32bit\\");
status = SetDir(path);
LaunchExecutable ("DPInst.exe");
void main()
char path[512];
int status;
status = GetDir (path);
if(IsWow64()) strcat(path,"\\64bit\\");
   else strcat(path,"\\32bit\\");
status = SetDir(path);
LaunchExecutable ("DPInst.exe");
This should do the trick.
Best Regards,
Greg

Windows Vista 32bit or 64bit?

Which is better for my new mac book pro, Windows Vista 32bit or 64bit Ultimate? All I care about is all of my programs and games working properly. And what does 86x mean? Will one version of the bits work faster than the other?

Hi Konnexion,
There is another more important limit with 32-bit versions of Windows, and that is the limit of 2 GBS of RAM per process. Unless some tricks and tweaks are used (which can result in reduced stability), no matter how much physical RAM is installed, a single application can't use more than 2 GBs. This is important for applications that can use large amounts of RAM like video and picture rendering apps, and even some games these days (particularly in Vista).
On the other hand, the 64-bit version of Vista has a number of additional security enhancements over the 32-bit version, such as address-space layout randomization, mandatory driver signing. If you have the RAM (at least 4GBs) and games are not a priority, I would actually recommend using the 64-bit version. Of course, why would you be using Boot Camp, if it weren't for games LOL?

Oracle 9i 32bit to 64bit

Dear all,
I have a question about oracle 9i change from 32bit to 64bit:
We want to change our SAP server from 32bit to 64bit (LINUX). In this case, we also want change the SAP from 32bit to 64bit (but no SAP release changed), and oracle 9i from 32bit to 64bit. Is this possible? How to do it? How much time need based on your estimate?
Because the system can not shut down more than 12 hours, we intend to use a old oracle export for new system installation and use the redolog rollforward to the lastest status. The new system is running on 64bit (oracle and SAP), but the redolog is 32bit, is it OK?
Thanks
Michael

steps are
Verify there are no invalid objects.
Verify all components in the DB are Valid
Install Oracle 64bit
Copy the Database files from the 32bit machine, to the 64bit machine.
(Datafiles, Logfiles, Controlfiles, init.ora, tnsnames.ora, listener.ora, etc..)
Run all the post scripts
When this was all done, there should be zero invalid objects.
export/import. advantage being that the old database will remain usable in case the migration fails
Good Luck

How to identify the installed Weblogic Server and JDK are 32bit or 64bit?

Hi everyone,
I have a question ~
Both Weblogic Server and JAVA JDK are installed on the server already, but I only know the Weblogic Server is 10.3.4.0 and JAVA JDK version is 1.6.0_25.
I know the 64bit Weblogic Server installation file is a wlsXXXX_generic.jar package and 64bit JAVA JDK needed also.
But, since the Weblogic installed already, there are no such installation files on the Linux Server now.
I have tried the "java -version" for java version and check the Weblogic version from Weblogic console.
How to identify the installed Weblogic Server and JDK are 32bit or 64bit with Linux command? Or is there any way to check it?

What you can try to do is use WLST (or an MBean browser, such as JConsole or JRockit Mission Control) and connect to the adminserver.
For example when using WLST:
# set the environment by using setWLSEnv.sh (located in the ${WL_HOME}/server/bin directory).
# start WLST by using: java weblogic.WLST
# connect to the adminserver
connect('adminusername','adminpassword');
# change to the serverruntime environment
serverRuntime();
# show the attributes
ls();
# Here an attribute is shown called WebLogicVersion that shows the version of WebLogic
-r-- WeblogicVersion WebLogic Server 10.3.5.0 Fri Apr 1 20:20:06 PDT 2011 1398638
# Note that this does not show if is 32 bits or 64 bits to retrieve this information you have obtain the JVM version
# change the directory
cd('JVMRuntime/AdminServer');
# show the attributes
ls();
-r-- Version R28.0.1-21-133393-1.6.0_20-20100512-2126-linux-x86_64
# when you have something like x86 at the you are running a 32 bit version, if you have something like x86_64 you are running a 64 bits versionAs mentioned above you can also retrieve this information by using a MBean browser.
