Bitwidth of Avamar Plug-in for Oracle and Oracle

The bitwidth of the Oracle software, the Avamar Plug-in for Oracle, and the platform must match.

Ensure that you download the correct software packages for the platform and version of Oracle. System requirements provides more information.
NOTE:64-bit operating systems do not support the 32-bit versions of Oracle 10g and later versions. You can find additional information about Oracle on the Oracle website.

To check the bitwidth of Oracle, change to the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory and type the following command:

file ~/oracle/product/version/db-name/bin/rman

where:

  • version is the version of Oracle.
  • db-name is the name of the Oracle database.

The following output appears in the command shell:

/home/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/rman: ELF 64-bit
LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.4.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs),
not stripped

To check the bitwidth of RMAN, change to the $ORACLE_HOME/bin directory and type the following command:

file ~/oracle/product/version/db-name/bin/sqlplus

where:

  • version is the version of Oracle.
  • db-name is the name of the Oracle database.

The following output appears in the command shell:

/home/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/sqlplus: ELF 64-bit
LSB executable, AMD x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.4.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs),
not stripped

The text string ELF 64-bit LSB executable in the command output confirms that both Oracle and RMAN are 64-bit.
