Call it a case of Back to the Future in the IT channel. Oracle claims to be rallying partners around the classic (but upgraded and overhauled) hardware-software combination of SPARC/Solaris. Indeed, Oracle says nearly 500 partners have sold SPARC T4 servers running Oracle Solaris 11.

Oracle will port its Enterprise Linux distribution to Sun's Sparc processor, a move that could help it compete better against IBM and Hewlett-Packard in the high-end server business. CEO Larry Ellison made the disclosure in response to a question about Oracle's Linux strategy at the company's Sparc systems launch last Thursday.
I have a laptop and need to build an Oracle Linux kickstart server and a Solaris Jumpstart server that can build sparc and x86 systems.
Is the best way to create a dual boot from grub for Oracle Linux and Solaris x86?
Can the Oracle Kickstart be used as a Jumpstart to build both Solaris 10 sparc and x86?
Currently the laptop has Windows installed but I was going to partition the hard drive.

Hello friends,
I hope everyone is fine and doing well. I want to learn Assembly language for SPARC architecture. Is there any emulator available for 64 bit SPARC on which one can install Oracle Solaris 11 SPARC version. And ofcourse on my intel laptop computer???
Thanks!
Oracle’s SPARC T5 Servers are powered by the world’s fastest T5 processor, and have achieved 17 world record benchmarks, and are the highest performing single servers for database and middleware, Oracle asserts.

Hi,
I have two solaris servers running Oracle Applications. One is SPARC 5.9 and other one is SPARC 5.10
I want to share the tape drive attached to 5.10 with other machine so that i can enhance my backup strategy for backing up Oracle DB.
I tried to share my tape drive by performing the below which I got it from one forum

Greetings,
We are interested in the sparc T4-2, but have not seen too many people using it. Has anyone had any experience with it? Please let me know if you have. We are testing out the server with Oracle applications and wanted to see how it could handle 1000 or so sessions.
Thanks,
Tom
