See note 277650.1 in Oracle's Metalink support site - it's the document we used to start the process.

They are coming from Sparc/Solaris. The database won't restore directly due to platform differences. Oracle indicates that the process requires the RMAN utility to 'convert' the database for restore on Linux. Are there other shops that have had to do this? Is this the only way? For some reason, this customer is afraid of RMAN. Thanks. -- Rich Smrcina VM Assist, Inc.
