需要在64位的linux上安装oracle的客户端，server版本是9.2.0.8.0。
原先客户端机器上安装了10.2.0.1，但是OCI程序有问题，32位客户端正常；64位客户端，有个解决不了的BUG（来自需求方的描述，是否是64位的问题，有待研究，先装吧）。
翻了一下电脑库存，只有上面的10.2.0.1和11gr2的。兼容么？瞅了眼安装文档，
For information about interoperability(互操作性) between Oracle Database Client and Oracle Database releases, see Note 207303.1 on the My Oracle Support Web site at the following URL: https://support.oracle.com/
算了，直接搜吧，中文的搜到一堆9i之前的；只好搜英文的。
http://blog.whitehorses.nl/2010/02/19/database-version-compatibility-and-support-matrix/
Information in these matrices is always undergoing changes and you should always cross check this information with http://support.oracle.com.
Oracle has different kinds of ‘lifetime support’, where Premier and Extended Support are the most well known:
Premier Support provides maintenance and support five years from their general availability date.
Extended Support provides an extra three years of (Premier) support for specific Oracle releases for an additional fee.
Database version compatibility matrix
Oracle calls this the Client / Server Interoperability Support matrix.
| Server Version | |||||
| Client Version | 11.2.0.x | 11.1.0.x | > 10.2.0.2 | > 10.1.0.5 | > 9.2.0.4 |
| 11.2.0.x | Yes | Yes | Yes | No | ES |
| 11.1.0.x | Yes | Yes | Yes | ES | ES |
| > 10.2.0.2 | Yes | Yes | Yes | ES | ES |
| > 10.1.0.5 *) | ES | ES | ES | ES | ES |
| > 9.2.0.4 | ES | ES | ES | ES | ES |
ES) Extended Support: fixes are only possible for customers with Extended Support.
*) There are problems connecting from a 10g client to 8i/9i where one is EBCDIC based.
Notes:
- Interoperability problems will only be investigated if BOTH releases involved are covered.
- For database links between different Oracle versions connections must be supported in BOTH directions in the matrix above.
刷刷刷的一堆，算了，不用11g了，还是去下载9i的安装包吧http://www.oracle.com/technology/global/cn/software/products/oracle9i/index.html
