    According to the support matrix Oracle 12c is supported on AIX 7.1 and LSF 10.0.6.  After installing LSF 10.0.6 the only database driver loaded was for Oracle 11.  The Oracle database driver files are there for 12 and the LSF has selections for Oracle 12 but the driver files are pretty much empty.   They are only 6276 bytes when they should be in the MB range.  Should I select the Oracle 11 drivers to communicate with the Oracle 12c database?  IE Set LAWGATENAME = oradb11 in the ORACLE file?

      Note the oracle 10 drivers files exist as well, but they to have the 6276 byte size for ordba10, verifyora10, and the bldora10 files. I can understand why the Oracle 10 drives would be in this condition but I would expect the oracle 12 drivers to be fully loaded.

          Yes. I did. You have to select the ora11 database type and use the ora11 drivers during the initial install. The APIs from the ora11 drivers work for an oracle 12 database. One of the patches after the initial install will load the ora12 drivers. At that point I changed the install.cfg to reference the ora12 database type and changed the gen and logan ORACLE files to use the ora12 drivers. I updated the install.cfg just because. It has no impact on the running of the system, but the ORACLE files do.
