8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade

We are about to do an 'emergency' upgrade from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7 on NT 4.0. Since this is the first time we are doing this on NT, I am wondering if anybody on the list who has been there, done that, and let us know what kind of caveats we might run into or just outline the steps we should go through

Re: 8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade

Take a look at the Oracle 8i Mogration Guide, part number A86632-01 (available on Technet). In particular, review all the steps in Chapter 7. You can either have the installer do the migration for you, or do it manually. I just did a migration from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7.1.3 on NT 4 Sp6a following t

Re: 8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade

For the record, this isn't a migration, it's an upgrade. A migration is changing your database to a new version. An upgrade is a new release. 8.1.6 -> 8.1.7 is a new release, and an upgrade according to Oracle. Migrations imply much more work than an upgrade. Jared On Thursday 19 July 2001

Re: 8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade

It's pretty simple, actually, to change the wordsize. Check out the Oracle8i Migration guide - specifically, page 7-38. Brian paquette stephane wrote: > I did not find on metalink how to "upgrade" and change > the wordsize from 64bit to 32bit. > Yes, I'm tired of waiting for patches that never

64-to-32-bit "upgrade" (was "8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade")

Stephane, I've had questions on migrations and upgrades in the past and the final answer has always been: It is always safest to export/import to change what version of Oracle your database uses. It's certainly leaves the tablespaces a helluva lot cleaner than the other methods of migration! O

Re: 64-to-32-bit "upgrade" (was "8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade")

I did not have a specific problem, it's just that patches are 3 to 6 months behind the 32 bit version, on Solaris anyway. I have 2 bugs fixed in 8163 which is not available... Also, we will not have that much ram available so I'm ok with the 32 bit version. --- "Jesse, Rich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
