Oracle Solaris Support on HP Proliant and BladeServers

Friday, July 23. 2010

Just got the news, that Oracle Solaris Premier (24x7 Support) Support is available on HP servers via HP again. You have to order it via HP Software License Management Services. For details ask your friendly HP sales rep. However:there is (and was) a way to buy Support for Solaris on HP via Oracle, about that way ask you friendly Oracle sales rep.

Sag mal, kannst Du mal ne Hausmarke nennen, mit welchen Kosten man für den Oracle Premier Support for Operating Systems rechnen muß?
Ich würde gerne ein oder zwei kleine Sun Fire V100 oder Fire 280R ins RZ stellen und auch wenn Updates für Feiglinge sind

, würde ich trotzdem zumindest den Preisbereich gerne wissen.
Und ja, ich habe auf der Oracle-Seite gesucht aber als Privatperson habe ich keinen direkten Draht zum Verkauf von Oracle.

Oracle's finally listening? Wow.

Well ... there are two parties in every decision ....

The original announcement sounds like it was all Oracle: "As you may have heard, Oracle has exercised its right to terminate HP’s Solaris technical support agreement."

Well ... everything has two sides. However no further comment ...

Does that support include "ALL" Proliant/blades including the newest G7 line up like the DL580G7, DL585G7 and DL980G7?

If so, that's decent news.

Take a closer look at the Solaris Support Matrix: http://h18004.www1.hp.com/products/servers/solaris/supportmatrix/index.html

Well, I see DL580G7 supported(that's great). But it's missing DL585G7 and DL980G7.

DL585G7 in particular is very interesting. I was expecting a dual SR5690 implementation. It turns out to be a "quad SR5690" implementation!! 11 pci-e slots are all at least full x8 bandwidth with 4 of them full x16 bandwidth, which is far better than DL580G7 or R910 or R815.

Well, 980 is announced but not deliverable at the moment. The missing line in the support matrix may have to do with situation
