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.

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,
Veeresh.S
(Oracle DBA)

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.

ABAP Adaption while migrating from Windows to Unix

Dear All,
I am working on a project where SAP system has been migrating from Windows to Unix os. Because of this all ABAP which are using Files, Operating system command has to be adapted as well.
How can I get such a list of ABAP objects which will be affected by this migration.
Example I can look for Dataset command, External OS Commands and so on..
Please advice if there is a straight forward way to get such a list?
Your prompt response would be higly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance

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

Hello, How do I tell sql+ to spool output file from windows to Unix server?

Hello, How do I tell sql+ to spool output file from windows to Unix server?
I am new to SQL+ and just learned how to spool the file. But file is saved in my local windows enviroment and since it's 2GB in size...I want to spool it directly to another remote unix server.
Pls answer in detail... I have been to most of the thread and didn't see relevant answer to above question.
Am I suppose to develope some script which FTP the spool file directly to the server I want to
or
i Have to use UTL_FILE Package ?
Thanks for reply

You may not be able to...
SQL*Plus can only spool to the local machine. If you have mapped a directory on the Unix server from your Windows machine, you can specify that directory in your SPOOL command.
You could telnet to the Unix server, run SQL*Plus there, and spool the file to a local (Unix) directory.
If the Unix server is also the Oracle database server, you could use the UTL_FILE package rather than using SQL*Plus to spool a file.
If the Unix server is also an FTP server, you could also FTP the file from your local machine to the server.
Of course, I would tend to re-examine a requirement to regularly generate a 2 GB text file. It seems likely that there is a better way...

I have recently migrated data from Windows PC to Macbook Pro 13in. On booting the macbook now the account with the migrated data an only be accessed via the Apple menu. Is this normal ?

I have recently migrated data from Windows PC to Macbook Pro 13in.running Yosemite. On booting the macbook now the account with the migrated data can only be accessed via the Apple menu. Is this normal ?

Open the Users folder on the internal drive, drag all of the other home folders to the desktop, and then move the files inside to the desired locations.

Is there a migration assistent from windows to Leopard?

My new MacBook Pro runs de Snow Leopard... I would like to transfer my files from my PC, but can't find a migration assistent from windows to Snow Leopard... just from windows to Lion...

There is no migration assistant for Windows to Snow Leopard. But you can transfer your files to an external drive that has been formatted FAT32 as the Mac can read and write to a FAT32 formatted drive.

Ora-25215 from windows to unix - please help

I have successfully set up streams replication from unix to windows -- it works beautifully!
However, when I set up streams with a different set of tables going from windows to unix, I get the propagation error, "ora-25215: user_data type and queue type do not match"
I have been all over metalink and the internet trying to find a solution or explanation, and there is very little out there. I found a dozen hits on my metalink search on ora-25215 and one of them was "How to resolve ora-25215..." Alas, it really doesn't address a fix for simple streams, it goes into setting up a payload, etc...
Like I said, my unix to windows works like a charm, but unix to windows doesn't. By the way, my windows is 2k and my unix is solaris 8. Anyone have any ideas for what the problem is?
Thanks,
jimmy

Jimmy,
Make sure your propagation is configured correctly. It is also possible to get this error in Oracle9iR2 if you use the wrong queue name or schema when configuring propagation.

Moving oracle 9i database from windows 2000 to windows 2003 server

hi everybody,
plz provide me a solution how to move oracle 9i database from windows 2000 server to windows 2003 server with step by step and also with commands plz as i am very new to oracle
thanks in advance
suresh

Install 9i on windows 2003 server and patch to the same level as the Oracle on Windows 2k
Shutdown and make a cold backup of your old database. That includes datafiles, controlfiles, redo files, init file (spfile)
Copy and put these files to the exact same directory structure/location, for example if old file is under D:\oradata\mysid\ then the file on new file should be under same directory. (If you are using Network Storage that make things easier, just mapping to the same drive letter.)
Also make sure archive log dest and all dump dest directories are created. You don't have to copy all old logs and dump files over.
Use oradim to create a new service for the database instance
http://www.psoug.org/reference/oradim.html
Set proper ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID envionment varibles
Run netca to configure listener, actually copy listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to $ORACLE_HOME\network\admin will do
Try to start the database

Assuming you're actually using any of the features of Oracle at present, this will be an impossible task, since MySql has such narrower set of supported SQL.
