Enterprise Edition or Standard Edition

[Ablakios]

Hi Guys
We used to have Oracle 8.1.7.0 Standard Edition. We just upgrade to 8.1.7.4.
What script will show me the type of version we have, stating not only the "8.1.7.4 but Enterprise edition
or Standard edition.

I query v$version.
select * from v$version;
it did not give me the info I really want.
Select * form v$license; not satisfy with the result.

I need the query to return the word"Enterprise Edition or Standard Edition"
Thanks

Don't know what you really mean by v$version..
This one works just fine here...

scott@NICK817.TARRY.LOCAL> select * from v$version

or maybe you can try this sql:

• select decode(instr(banner, 'Enterprise'), 0, 'Standard Edition', 'Enterprise Edition') from v$version where banner like '%Oracle%'

This is what my result show on the production.
SQL> select * from v$version;

Why don't you simply start OUI and see what it says?

Can you pl. run the following query and let me know of the output

            SELECT * FROM product_component_version
            WHERE product LIKE '%Oracle%';

Sam,
V$PRODUCT_COMPONENT_VERSION is derived from V$VERSION so it won't show anything different.
Extract from catalog.sql

create or replace view product_component_version(product,version,status) as
(select
substr(banner,1, instr(banner,'Version')-1),
substr(banner, instr(banner,'Version')+8,
instr(banner,' - ')-(instr(banner,'Version')+8)),
substr(banner,instr(banner,' - ')+3)
from v$version
where instr(banner,'Version') > 0
and
((instr(banner,'Version') <   instr(banner,'Release')) or
instr(banner,'Release') = 0))
union
(select
substr(banner,1, instr(banner,'Release')-1),
substr(banner, instr(banner,'Release')+8,
instr(banner,' - ')-(instr(banner,'Release')+8)),
substr(banner,instr(banner,' - ')+3)
from v$version
where instr(banner,'Release') > 0
and
instr(banner,'Release') <   instr(banner,' - '))
