JDE 64 BIT SUPPORT


Oracle Recently released the latest Tools Release 9.2.3. With Tools 9.2.3 Oracle has brought many new features. One of the feature is the 64 bit support.

Until Tools 9.2.2* 64-bit is enabled only for HTML, AIS, BSSV, and RTE servers , also JD Edwards has supported 64-bit hardware, operating systems, databases, and middle ware for multiple years.

With the latest Tools Release 9.2.3 and Application Release 9.2, JD Edwards supports 64-bit processing for the Enterprise server and development client. This enables customers to adopt future technology and future proof their JD Edwards environments.


Lot of third-party components and even Hardware such as database drivers and Java, are delivering only 64-bit components. Soon there will be very limited or no support for 32-bit components, taking all these into Consideration Oracle started moving JDE into Complete 64 bit. 


JDE Tools Release 9.2.3 (64-bit) can be implemented/supported only on JDE 9.2 Application release. Tools Release 9.2.3 (32-bit) supports JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Applications 9.2, 9.1 and 9.0 releases.

Tools Release 9.2.3 provides support for upgrading Enterprise Servers and Development Clients to 64-bit. Support for upgrading the Deployment Server to 64-bit is provided in a future release. Until support for a 64-bit Deployment Server is provided, 32-bit is the source of truth for the tools release and all development should be done from a 32-bit Development Client.

As per Oracle, there is no impact to spec-based objects such as interactive applications, batch applications, named event rules, and other spec-based objects. Customized C business functions may need to be retrofitted for 64-bit processing.  To simplify the retrofitting, Oracle has delivered an embedded utility to assist with converting customized C business functions to be 64-bit processing compliant.



As per oracle, with the 64 bit enabled system performance has been improved. Oracle stated that some of the heavy use interactive programs showed a 6 to 10 percent improvement in response times. Heavy use batch applications showed upwards to 13 percent runtime improvement. 


Below is the process outlined by Oracle to do TR upgrade and move to 64 bit.
