Not an expert but from the question what u have asked I feel is install the oracle 817 on the new machine and make that machine the standby prior to the day you want to switch keepp applying the logs and the day u want to switch shut down the production and ship the ONLINE REDLOG FILES AND THE CONTROL FILE AND BRING THE STANDBY BY IN ACTUAL MOUNT MODE AND SAY RECOVER DATABASE. ONCE IT SAYS MEDIA RECOVERY COMPLETE YOU CAN BRING THE DATABASE WITHOUT ACTIVATING THE DATABASE.
