RE: Oracle 9.0.1 and 9.2
Hi Kevin, In the 9i R2 Migration Guide (p 321), Step 10 of the upgrade process specifies that you should open the database using "STARTUP MIGRATE". This option sets the status of the database to 'OPEN MIGRATE' in V$INSTANCE. That makes it a migration. Hence the discussion we had a few months ago along the lines of "Yes, 9i Release 1 was really only 8.2 and this is the real 9i" Did you use the Database Upgrade Assistant? That may explain why you didn't see the "migrate" step. I think my phrasing implied that migrating to release 2 was far harder than upgrading to a new version. Thanks to improvements in the process this is no longer the case.

Re: Oracle 9.0.1 and 9.2
I'd install a new home for 9.2 - once the db is upgraded and working fine, then blow away the 9.0 version. Otherwise there is always that risk that you lose a little file that you would have liked to keep (eg listener.ora etc etc) hth connor --- Stefan Jahnke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi everybody > > I've got 9.0.1 and 8.1.7 running on one laptop (to > test stuff).
