Migrating database from windows to linux using dbca templates

Hi every one,
Is it possible to migrate Oracle10g database from Windows to Linux by using DBCA templates?????????????
If yes please guide me, as i tried it and am getting error while creating database on linux using DBCA templates of Windows server.
Warm regards,

With DBCA you can create a new database, delete a database, create ASM, and manage templates.
There's no option of migrating a database from one platform to the other. If you want to migrate your database from Windows to Linux you have 2 ways of doing it:
1 using IMP/EXP Export you db on windows and Import it on Linux.
2 Use across platform transportable tablespace if you db is already on 10g.

  • Migrate Oracle 11g database from Windows To Linux using RMAN hot / cold  backup ?

    Hi Friends,
    Is it possible to Migrate Oracle 11g database from Windows To Linux using RMAN hot / cold  backup ? ( as i would like to perform Point In Time recovery)
    (or) The only way is to use RMAN convert as mentioned here  - Transporting Data Across Platforms
    (or) Is there any other method (except exp/imp and data pump)
    Regards,
    DB

    HI
    his post describes the procedure required to migrate a database from Windows to Linux using the RMAN Convert Database command.
    Both Windows and Linux platforms have the same endian format, which makes possible to transfer the whole database, making the migration process very straightforward and simple.
    To migrate between platforms that have a different endian format, Cross Platform Transportable Tablespaces (XTTS) needs to be used instead.
    List of Steps Needed to Complete the Migration
    The migration process is simple, but as it has several steps it is convenient to be familiar with them before running it.
    1. Check platform compatibility between source and target OS
    2. Start the database in read only mode
    3. Check database readiness for transport from Windows to Linux using DBMS_TDB.CHECK_DB
    4. Check if there are any external objects
    5. Execute the Rman Convert database command
    6. Copy converted datafiles, generated Transport Script and Parameter File to Linux
    7. Edit the init.ora for the new database
    8. Edit the Transport Script and Parameter File changing the windows paths to Linux Paths
    9. Execute the Transport Script
    10.Change the Database ID
    11.Check database integrity
    Thank you

  • Migrating database from solaris to linux

    I am not sure if there is a migration section here. However, I would like to migrate a 9.2.0.8 database from Solaris to linux and upgrade it to 11g. I reckon that both platforms have different endian format and using rman convert+transportable database and so on will be work if I can upgrade the database to 10 or 11g.
    My question is that since the database is small around 35GB, can I use just exp/imp? If yes but can someone outline what will be needed to take care of the endian format and other hidden hints.
    I believe someone must have done this ------> 9i to 10g or 9i to 11g across platform.
    Thanks.

    It just depends on what how you define 'large'. Generally speaking exp/imp is slow when compared to Data Pump or transportable tablespaces (but both cannot be used in your case).
    I don't think that 16 GB is large but you have to test in your environment how much time import is going to take: import needs always more time than export.

  • Migrating database from windows to unix

    Can anyone, please suggest me some reading on migrating a database from windows to unix? Thanks

    Yes an export import is the most likely migration path you have. There is another option. You may install, just temporarily a 10g environment on the windows platform, then upgrade using the DBUA from 8i to 10g on the same platform. This way you will make sure you don't miss a piece of data during the migration process.
    Once your database is at the 10g platform, you may proceed with a transport tablespace from 10g win to 10g unix. Violà, your database will be on the 10g platform.
    Next, deinstall the windows temporary 10g installation.
    Notes:
    1. Make sure your 8i db is at the latest patchset available at 8i (8.1.7.4.0)
    2. Define which unix platform you are referring to. It's because of endian issues.

    Thank

    Vincent;
    is that mean it is not possible to restore the db from one platform to another?It's possible, but there's quite a lot of planning that needed to be done.
    The Database Backup and Recovery User's Guide should have a section on Transporting Data Across Platforms.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/backup.112/e10642/rcmxplat.htm
    You need to use dbms_tdb.check_db to test if it can be done with the OS's you have in mind.
    There's a fairly good example here, but not using the exact OS's you have in mind.
    http://mohamedazar.com/2011/06/08/transport-an-entire-database-to-a-different-platform/
    My understanding is it won't transport certain items :
    Control files and Redo logs
    Bfiles
    Temp files
    External tables
    Directories
    Password files
    Also you need to create a new instance before you can use RMAN backups from the source.
    Here's another example :

  • Migrating code from windows to linux

    Hi, 
    I am looking for a solution or method to migrate labview code developed in windows platform into Linux platform. The thing is we have developed instrument driver code in Windows platform and have used VISA as well for communication purposes. I've come to know about some method for such porting to follow as the project file of ours contains vi.lib stuff as well. We do have a license for both Windows and Linux versions of Labview.
    Please suggest me any solution to do such porting into Linux platform if someboy have come across such things.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Vivek 

    Thanks guys for quick responses. I really appreciate your support. I tried the way you mentioned. I copied all my code into the linux system. Created new project file but again same problem occurs, labview is crashing because of VISA.
    Why I am sure about the VISA is because I tried to open/create new VI in linux using VISA API's and all are creating trouble and further it leads labview to crash.
    Rest all other functions in labview are working fine. Hope all my assumptions are correct and could blame VISA for creating problems.
    Please do suggest us ...
    Thanks in Advance,

  • Migration assistant from windows to mac using Ethernet cable

    I have just bought a year old MacBook Pro and have been trying to transfer date from my windows laptop to the mac using the migration assistant.
    The first time I tried this process it tried to do it via wifi and the information message stated it would take 28+ hours, but the connection was lost after a few hours and the process stopped.
    I would like to restart this using an Ethernet cable from the windows laptop to the mac, but when migration assistant starts it automatically defaults to wifi and doesn't give me an option of choosing to use an Ethernet cable.
    How can I force it to use this cable? Because it will take too long by using wifi.

  • Migrate coldfusion from windows to linux

    Hello Everyons,
    we're running about 50 (not very complex) coldfusion mx7
    websites on our windows server.
    we've been contemplating to change to a linux server though.
    can anyone inform us on particular pro's and/or con's for
    such a migration?
    are the website going to behave differently on linux?
    is our coldfusion license for windows also usable for linux?
    tnx for your remarks!

    Here are some points that you need to be careful.
    - File naming. Linux is case sensitive.
    “Application.cfm” and “application.cfm” are
    different files and CF looks for “Application.cfm” or
    “OnRequestEnd.cfm” etc..
    - Directory reference is different. Be careful for your
    application specially for CFFILE etc. tags.
    - “/” instead of “\”.
    - There is no C CFX tags on Linux. Be sure that you
    don’t need any Win based components.
    - There is no COM objects on Linux (some of them have support
    with 3rd part tools but this is in general). If you have any COM
    usage, forget it.
    - Verity has different behaviors on Linux. (Check CF
    technotes for details)
    - Go with Debian Linux as server platform! Debian rulez! :)
    There would be some more suggestions but these are my
    response in 2 min.
    IMHO.

  • 10gR2 to 11gR2 from Windows to Linux with 6TB Database.

    Hi,
    I need to do migration from 10gR2 to 11.2.0.2.0 and from Windows to Linux for 6TB database Size. As both Endian format same, I did the migration using RMAN Convert database on UAT but for same 10gR2 version.(Both Source on Target Oracle Version was 10.2.01.0). Now I have to migrate from 10gR2 to 11.2.0.2.0. So it's 2 way process.
    is it possible to club these 2 way migration process ???
    Are following steps right or any modification is required ??
    1) Install 11.2.0.2.0 on Linux OS
    2) Open Source Database (Windows) in Read Only. Generate TRANSPORT.SQL, CONVERTSCRIPT.RMAN & Pfile.
    3) Copy Source datafiles in temporary location on Target OS. Also copy above files.
    4) Create dummy controlfile.
    5) Startup nomount with Changed pfile
    6) Mount database with Dummy Controlfile.
    7) Run CONVERTSCRIPT.RMAN to convert actual datafiles from Windows Platform to Linux Platform.
    8) Shutdown the instance and delele Dummy Controlfiles.
    9) Edit TRANSPORT.SQL and do Appropriate Changes like redolog files, datafiles path...
    Now my question is, can I add ?/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sql in TRANSPORT.SQL script after Startup upgarade command so that Complete Upgradation to 11.2.0.2.0 would be done.
    10) Then run TRANSPORT.SQL on Target System (11.2.0.2.0)
    Tell me if more inputs are required from my side...

    The directory structure is different...that's why you need to create the tablespaces in Linux. e.g. export dump says create tablespace in D:\..., there is no such thing in Linux. You can just export it, install software, create the db, tablespaces in Linux and import into the 10g in Linux.
