We are planning to move to raw devices for all our existing file systems. Our database size is around 400 Gig. What is the recommended method that you guys feel is best as far as time required to convert and ease of conversion.
We feel we cannot use export - import as this may take more time for conversion.. I checked many documents to find out the best method, there are few suggestions to use RMAN to convert to raw. seems it is fastest. At this point we have not configured RMAN on our databases so this suggestion seems to be of no use for us. Please let me know, if any of you went through this exercise and any suggestions and tips will be more beneficial, Thanks in advance, -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Nat INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services -- 858-538-5051 http://www.fatcity.com San Diego, California -- Mailing list and web hosting services --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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).
