pachot/oracle5 repository overview

This is Oracle 5.1 on MS-DOS 5.00 through QEMU. The image comes from https://vetusware.com/output/zlnszazk/Oracle51c-qemu.7z⁠ I think you need a valid license to run it. It is for lab only anyway and to see how Oracle Database has a long history of awesome features with small footprint.

run it with:

docker run -it --name oracle5 pachot/oracle5

and you are at the DOS prompt with Oracle started

• You can choose your keyboard with keyb like I use keyb sf for Swiss French
• you can run sqlplus system/manager or sqlplus sys/change_on_install or sqlplus scott/tiger but also investigate other tools
• when connected help topicsis a nice online help
• you exit the QWMU with Contol-A x - no need to shutdown properly - Oracle recovery works well 😋

Have fun... Feedback welcome on https://twitter.com/FranckPachot/status/1312839182075727872?s=20⁠
