- What are the supported Database and National Character Sets for an Oracle database when using Metastorm BPM?
Resolution
Metastorm BPM version 7.x has been tested using the following character sets, and only these are supported. Note that for 10G R1 the two character sets (Database, National) are not selected separately during the Oracle installation.
Also note that Metastorm BPM version 7.0 only supports a Unicode database.
See the Supported Environments document for more information.
