Support for Software Patches and Upgrades
Due to the ongoing nature of software improvement, vendors will issue patches and service packs
for the operating systems, application servers and database servers on top of specific versions that
Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management has been tested with.
If it is necessary to apply an upgrade, please do so in a test environment that is running on the
same platform as your production environment prior to updating the Oracle Utilities Meter Data
Management production environment.
The exceptions from this rule are Hibernate software version 3.3.2 ga and the Oracle Client
version 11.2.0.1. These versions should not be upgraded.
Always contact Oracle Utilities Meter Data Management support prior to applying vendor updates
that do not guarantee backward compatibility.
