Why Oracle 19c got timezone version file timezlrg_40.dat

user-88ledMay 9 2023 — edited May 11 2023

Dear Experts,

I am a newbie in Oracle database.

My team setup 2 servers which use Oracle 19c, but timezone file version is different. First server is timezlrg_32.dat, another is timezlrg_40.dat.
Both 2 servers use version: Oracle Database 19c Enterprise Edition Release 19.0.0.0.0 - Production Version 19.18.0.0.0

- DB server 1:

select * from v$timezone_file;
FILENAME |VERSION|CON_ID|
---------------+-------+------+
timezlrg_32.dat| 32| 0|

- DB server 2:
FILENAME |VERSION|CON_ID|
---------------+-------+------+
timezlrg_40.dat| 40| 0|

My questions are:
1. Why they have different timezone file version?
2. I'm using oracle client (instantclient_19_8 => I think it locate to timezlrg_32.dat), so I need to downgrade DB server 2: timezlrg_40.dat => timezlrg_32.dat. How to do that?

Thanks in advance!
