2 DIVA Product Compatibility

This chapter describes compatibility between DIVArchive 7.5 and other DIVA product lines, and includes the following information:

Oracle Database and DIVArchive Backup Service

The DIVArchive Oracle Database and Backup Service components are installed as an integral part of the standard DIVArchive system installation. The components are typically installed on the same server as the Oracle DIVArchive Manager.

The Oracle Database is backed up using the RMAN and RSYNC components that are distributed as part of the Oracle Database package.

Scheduled backups using the DIVArchive Backup Service are configured in it's configuration file. The DIVArchive Backup Service manages and monitors the entire backup process.

  • Windows only supports DIVA Oracle Database 12.1 package OracleDivaDB_3-0-0_12_1_0_2_0_SE2_Windows_64-bit.zip and later. No previous database package will work with DIVArchive 7.5 and later.

    The OracleDivaDB_3-0-0_12_1_0_2_0_SE2_Windows_64-bit.zip and later releases no longer includes the 32-bit Oracle database client.

  • DIVArchive 7.5 in a Linux environment only supports DIVA Oracle database package OracleDivaDB_3-0-0_12_1_0_2_0_SE2_OEL7_x86_64.sh and later.

Oracle DIVAnet

DIVAnet 2.1 is a new release for compatibility with DIVArchive 7.5 Linux-based installations. DIVAnet 2.1 also runs on Windows-based systems, but it is not backward compatible to releases before DIVArchive 7.3.1. You must use either DIVAnet 2.0 or Legacy DIVAnet (Release 1.0) when running DIVArchive releases earlier than DIVArchive 7.3.1.

The Legacy Oracle DIVAnet (Release 1.0) is still available for connecting DIVArchive systems with different software release levels, and releases before DIVArchive 7.3.1.

If you are operating a DIVArchive release earlier than 7.3.1, refer to the DIVAnet Installation, Configuration, and Operations Guide in the Oracle DIVAnet 2.0 Documentation library, or the appropriate Legacy DIVAnet documentation in the Oracle DIVArchive Legacy library (for releases 6.5 and 7.2).

Oracle DIVA Enterprise Connect and DIVArchive WS API

The software release containing the Oracle DIVArchive WS API has been renamed to Oracle DIVA Enterprise Connect 1.0. This release of DIVA Enterprise Connect is compatible with DIVArchive 7.4 and later, and DIVAnet 2.1 and later. DIVAnet 2.2 and later is required for the HTTP-based transport to the DIVAnet ManagerAdapter.

The current DIVA Enterprise Connect software release is 1.0. DIVA Enterprise Connect 1.0 supports the 2.2 release of the DIVArchive Web Services API; earlier API releases are not supported on release 1.0. This is true for both SOAP and REST.
