After thinking about this some more, I have one question. What if the new box has a different name?
When we move to the new production box, this will likely not be an issue because we will keep the same name. But while we are testing our process with 2 development boxes they will have to have different names so they can both be on the network. Of course if I could use Migrator then it would not be an issue. However it makes no sense for me to pay a lot of money for something I will use for 30 days.

If so I would recommend building the new box, installing Oracle, copying the data from Oracle 9 (I think the Oracle utility is called Data Pump or something like that), and installing ARS 7.5 as an upgrade. Using the Oracle utility will also copy things like your Procedures/Functions and dbLinks to the new database. The DBAs here used the utility when we moved our databases from a Sun RISC cluster w/Oracle 9i to a Sun x86 cluster w/Oracle 10g with no problems.

Thought is to completely build the new box, install ARS 7.5 and the move the data over to the new server. Has anyone done this before? Any suggestions on the best way to move the data? Is there a better way?
