The company I work for is performing a large IT migration at the moment (ending a contract with the current provider of many of our IT services). As part of the contract change -- I am having to move my production Oracle server (11g SE1) to a machine in a new data center. This will be a completely new installation starting with a clean-slate RHEL7. A couple of days ago, I realized that the same move is going to kill the access to my development Oracle server. While this machine is not hosted with the IT provider, part of the contract going away is providing me VPN access to the network segment it resides on. The development server is simply an Oracle XE installation.
I don't really want to lose my development environment and I don't want to pull my development code/etc. into my production database. The server hardware I am moving to has a considerably greater capacity than my current setup, so I was wondering about installing both XE and SE1 on that box so that I can continue to have my development instance available. I haven't had any luck with Google in locating people who have installed both on the same system. I think that it should be possible, but I was hoping someone here might have either done it or know of a post somewhere that details instructions... or just 'gotchas' to look out for.
