Francesco, Sometime in the past 6 - odd months, I had to migrate a bunch of databases on NT (why NT :-)?? Not my decision, believe me !!!)from 8.1.5 to 8.1.7.
Set ORACLE_HOME to the new version. Re-created the service (ORADIM). Re-created the controlfile. Ran u801050.sql. We did not run into any problems. thanks, sunny >From: "Francesco Cantisano" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] >To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Subject: How to port a DB(Ora815) on a different server (sameOS) but >Ora817? >Date: Tue, 20 Nov 2001 02:10:18 -0800 > >Hi to all, >I have to port a DB (Ora815, NOarchivelog) on a different server (same >OS Solaris), where there is >already installed ORA817. >I'm thinking of doing > >OLD SERVER > ->Shutdown immediate > ->Copy of db-files,redo,script for generate new ctl ,init,tnsnames > >NEW SERVER-On the 817 instance > ->STARTUP NO MOUNT > ->@RecreateControlFile > ->ALTER DATABASE OPEN > >Some suggestions? >Thanks to all! >Francesco >-- >Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com >-- >Author: Francesco Cantisano > INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Fat City Network Services -- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 >San Diego, California -- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists >-------------------------------------------------------------------- >To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message >to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in >the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L >(or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).
