Motivation:

The current client for 10g is buggy and won't allow OCI/wallet connections to the astro database for the new pass 7 oracle account. The 11g drivers work fine, but this change affects all web applications as we can't use two different drivers simultaneously.

In Summary:

Drivers will be updated from 10g to 11g.

Components to be upgraded:

Symlinks in the tomcat common directories will be updated for all tomcat webservers.

Related Jira Issues:

SSC-317

Backward Compatibility:

We tested on various applications without seeing any complications.

Upgrade Procedure:

Change symlinks to the new driver, restart tomcat server.

Back-out Procedure:

Change symlinks back to the old driver, restart tomcat server.
