Technical – Oracle 12.2.0.1 and Windows Server 2012 are no longer supported for Oracle Database Servers (3.74)
Description
The following are no longer supported for your Oracle database:
- Oracle 12.2.0.1
- Windows 2012 R2 (64 bit)
Note: The Oracle 12.2.0.1 Client is still required for this release.
When migrating from Oracle 12.2.0.1 to Oracle 19c, provided customers have a current support contract with Oracle (themselves, or via Capita), their existing licenses (for Oracle 12.2.0.1) will cover the Oracle 19c servers. Customers should be aware that they will need additional licenses to cover the new server whilst the old one is still running. This is usually achieved by purchasing a small number of named user licenses, rather than licensing the processors temporarily. Customers will need to ensure they are always appropriately licensed for Oracle.
