Migrate oracle 9iR2 database from Suse to Red Hat???

Hi Everyone,
We're going to move an oracle 9iR2 database from Suse to Red Hat. At this moment I don't know the detail about the platforms yet. I still like to ask a question if DB backup on Suse is compatible on RedHat? Physical restoring may be our prefer instead of exp/imp.
Any advices?
Thanks,
Eric

I'm pretty sure (never did it myself) that there will be not problem when moving the database. The Oracle software is the same (at least when you use the x86 version) so
the format of the datafiles and controlfiles should be identical.
However some configuration files (network settings) might differ so try before you die :-)

  • 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

    To move/migrate the 11i Apps Database alone means you need to follow the export/import method.
    Please refer the note: 362205.1 "10g Release 2 Export/Import Process for Oracle Applications Release 11i"
    In general steps to follow the DB migration is :
    1. create the complete export file in source database
    2.create a new DB in the target instance
    3.perform the import
    4.create the new auto-config and sync with apps tier

  • Migrate Oracle 9i Database to Oracle 10g Solaris Platform

    Hi DBAs,
    Thank you very much all of you, you helped me in RMAN Duplicate Database, There was a problem in my backupset and now it has been resolved.
    I have now following task.
    I want to migrate Oracle 9i Database to Oracle 10g ASM, both are on Solaris platform. Please provide me step by step solution. I have very big Database about 250G Database.

    In the "Complete checklist for manual upgrades to 10gR2" is written:
    PREREQUISITES
    =============
    + Install Oracle 10g Release 2 in a new Oracle Home.
    + Install the latest available patchset from Metalink.
    + Install the latest available Critical Patch Update.
    ... so "Install the latest available Critical Patch Update" step is that for the Oracle 10g database Oracle Home or Oracle 9i database Oracle Home ? I think that is for the 10g database/ Oracle Home ...
    after applying the CPU pacht there is some "Post Installation Instructions":
    3.3.5 Post Installation Instructions which demande a connection to the database:
    3. For each database instance running out of the ORACLE_HOME being patched, connect to the database using SQL*Plus as SYSDBA and run catcpu.sql as follows:
    cd %ORACLE_HOME%\CPU\CPUJan2007
    sqlplus /nolog SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
    SQL> STARTUP
    SQL> @catcpu.sql
    SQL> QUIT
    My question is ... If I want to upgrade a 9i database to 10g and I apply this CPU before the upgrade is done (to 10g Oracle Home), how could I connect to an instance which is not present to run this script ? ... is this step mandatory or is optional ?
    Thanks,
    P.

  • Installing Oracle Database 10g  on Linux Red Hat 5.1

    While inslalling Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Linux x86-64 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.1 (Tikanga) we've got an error
    Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4, UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2
    Failed <<<<
    Could we install Oracle Database 10g on Linux Red Hat 5.1 or we need only Oracle Database 11g?

    Verify that the redhat-release RPM is installed on your Red Hat system:
    rpm -q redhat-release
    This RPM is important for RHEL since RHEL AS 4, RHEL AS 3, and RHEL AS 2.1 are Linux releases supported by Oracle. Without this RPM, Oracle 10g OUI won't be able to recognize it as a supported OS. However, the installer of 10g 10.1.0.3 does not recognize RHEL AS 4 as a supported release yet. This means that you will have to edit the /etc/redhat-release file. You also have to change /etc/redhat-release for unsupported releases like Fedora Core and RH9.
    I do not recommend to execute "runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs" since this will disable other checks you probably don't want to.
    On RHEL AS 4 (for 10g R1), RH9, and FC 1 you have to change the /etc/redhat-release file to make Oracle 10g believe it's running on a supported release.
    Regarding RHEL AS 4, the installer for 10g 10.1.0.3 does not recognize RHEL AS 4 as a supported release but 10g R2 OUI does.
    To change the /etc/redhat-release file, you can simply copy/paste the following commands:
    su - root
    cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release.orig
    cat > /etc/redhat-release << EOF
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon)
    EOF
    After you are done with the Oracle10g installation, undo the changes you made to /etc/redhat-release:
    su - root
    cp /etc/redhat-release.orig /etc/redhat-release

    Hi,
    u can go for any of the migration steps provided by oracle..say
    1.By using DBUA
    2.By using PL/SQL scripts provided by oracle like utlu102i.sql
    3. Using exp/imp utilities
    4. Using Copy

  • Moving Oracle 9i database from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3

    Hi,
    We are planing to move few of our Oracle 9i databases from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3 on another server. Will offline backup/restore work in this case ? The databases are fairly big (> 1 TB each). Looking for some advice.. Thanks.

    Rgds,
    HimansuI assume that RMAN will be more faster than hard copy/paste (cold backup). I can't say how much it will probably take to take RMAN DUPLICATE, but it should be faster than cold backup

  • Porting Forms/Reports when migrating Oracle 9i DB from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3

    Hi,
    Looking for advice on how to port Oracle Forms/Reports modules when moving our Oracle 9i database from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3 platform. Details are as below:
    Oracle Forms and Reports v6i (There is no version upgrade in Forms & Reports)
    Database is Oracle 9i (No upgrade in database)
    There is upgrade in hardware only : from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3
    The application is having some 8000 forms/reports modules
    Do we need to recompile the forms/reports after porting the 9i database to AIX 5.3 ?
    Any direction would be appreciated .. Thanks !!
    Regards,
    Himansu

    Hi,
    Thanks for the response, we are going to recompile the Forms/Reports in the new environemnt.
    Just wondering how much time it may take to recompile all the 8000 odd forms/reports modules.. ? Will 10 seconds per form/report module be safe enough for the compilation ? Because in a batch file every time it is going to connect to the database while compiling a module, I am assumming it may take some 5 seconds to 10 seconds for the compilation. Thanks for the help again.

  • Migration of Content Databases from SP 2010 "Domain A" to SP 2013 "Domain B"

    Hi there,
    I am in the process of planning the migration of my SP Foundation 2010 farm to SP Server 2013.  I have tested this previously with the following steps and was successful:-
    Backup DB on SP2010 SQL
    Restore DB on SP 2013 SQL
    Run  Test-SPContentDatabase –Name WSS_Content_*** –WebApplication
    https://intranet.***.com.au
    Mount the DB - Mount-SPContentDatabase –Name WSS_Content_*** –DatabaseServer DomainA\SHAREPOINT –WebApplication
    https://intranet.***.com.au
    Convert Web App - Convert-SPWebApplication -Identity 
    https://intranet.***.com.au -To Claims -RetainPermissions –Force
    Now, the goal posts have changed and we may be moving to another domain.  Now, when I run
    Test-SPContentDatabase command in Step 3 above on Domain B, I get the error Login Failed for 'DomainA\SP_admin'
    - which makes sense.
    What would be the best way to restore a DB to a new domain?

    you have to perform the same steps....you need new account on the new Domain. then you have to run the migrate user command.

    I want to connect to Oracle 8i database from weblogic 10.3 application server. I found a classes12. zip file on Oracle.com to use as driver for the same.
    I am also connecting Oracle 9i database from the app server. Now if i replace the classes12. jar from the lib folder won't it disallow me to connect to the Oracle 9i database.
    2ndly the claases12.zip file i found from the site is for jdk 1.2 will it create any problems. Please let me know
    Kindly let me know what is the standard procedure to install a new driver in Weblogic 10.3.

    I tried to install weblogic 10.3 using jdk 1.5.07 but. it is not supported. Moreover from the sites also i found that it's only the application wars and ears compiled in jdk 1.5 need not be recompiled in 1.6. But no reference of jdk 1.5 is there.
    I tried to use thin client from the code and connect to Oracle 7i

  • Migration of the database from Microsoft SQL 2014 Express to Microsoft SQL 2012 Server

    I posted a similar thread yesterday, and I realized that there was a serious typo.
    Link: https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/b3e201ea-6c7c-43a4-8908-842b714ea451/migration-of-the-database-from-microsoft-sql-2014-express-to-microsoft-sql-2012-server?forum=sqlservermigration
    Therefore, I made a decision to post another thread right now.
    I am
    writing to ask if there are any known issues when migration from MS SQL 2014 Express to MS SQL 2012 Server version. Are there any step-by-step instruction on how I can go about doing this?
    Looking forward to your response. Thank you for your time.

    Hello,
    SQL Server 2012 setup program won’t allow you to perform a downgrade from SQL Server 2014 Express Edition. Backup/Restore
    and Detach/Attach won’t help you either.
    One option you have left is using SQL Server Import/Export Wizard as explained on the following article.
    http://www.mytechmantra.com/LearnSQLServer/Downgrade_SQL_Server_Database_P1.html

  • 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
