Migration Oracle 8.17 from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10

Is it possible to migrate Oracle 8.1.7 from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10? I find out the papers or the practices from internet that were done before. Do you have any documents said that or gurantee success?

Perhaps contact Oracle.
http://www.oracle.com
Maybe they will know how to make version 8.1.7 work with newer
distributions of various OS's.
After all, it is their product, not Sun's product.

  • 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

  • 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.
    Rgds,
    Himansu

  • 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 :-)

  • MIgrating Oracle Applications 11i from solaris 9 to Solaris 10

    Hi All,
    I want to migrate the two node oracle applications (11.5.10.2) from solaris 9 to soalris 10.
    I want to know any technical doucument or metalink tech note regarding this migration.current OS
    OS = Sun OS 5.9, 64 bit
    Target OS
    OS = Sun OS 5.10, 64bit
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I understand that the OP want to migrate from one server to another, and he is not going to upgrade the OS on the same machine.
    If an OS upgrade will be implemented, then there is no need to use Rapid Clone or backup/restore the files, instead refer to this thread.

  • Migrate Oracle Apps Instance from one server to another

    Hi All,
    We are planning on migrating our Production Oracle Apps Instance(11.5.10.2 and 9.2.0.8) on HP Tru64 UNIX OS on one server to a different server(Node name change) with the same OS. This is a single node, single OS user instance(Apps and DB on the same box). Can you please give me a brief idea on how to go about doing this?
    Thank you.
    Edited by: Ora_Apps_DBA on Jul 5, 2011 12:50 PM

    Since you will be using the same OS, then you can simply use Rapid Clone to migrate the Application/Database.

    Make sure you have all OS pre-req. software and packages installed on the target nodes before you clone the instance.

    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

  • Complexities of Migrating Oracle 10g from Solaris to HP-UX Itanium

    Can anyone share their experiences with regards to migrating Oracle 10g from Solaris on a Sun platform to HP-UX 11i v3 (Itanium) on HP Integrity servers. We are trying to consider all the risks associated with such a move. How much time delay did you experience in resolving unexpected issues along the way? How complex is the process? If you had to do it all over again, would you?
    In addtion, we will also be migrating Oracle eBusiness Suite 11i (11.5.10.2).
    We appreciate your helpful feedback.
    Thank you.

    Here is more information:
    - the database size is currently about 500GB
    - our ASP allows us to be down as much as we want however the company's own needs can only allow a downtime window of two days (over the weekend)
    - i presume further that RMAN might be an option to use to backup the database and instance to some transportable media
    - it would take about four days to get that media from the ASP to our facility so durign that time the instance at the ASP would have to be used
    - after we get the backup media and load everything into our in-house site, our last step would be to find a way to migrate all changes over the WAN. I am told that unless the platforms are the same on both ends, mirroring will be extremely difficult or impossible. If we have a platform that is different from the ASP platform, then the migration of all changes will require conversion and other mechanisms. I am told that HP-UX has so much complexities that this will be a daunting task to accomplish.
    Do you have any opinions and recommnedations?

  • Migrating Oracle from Solaris to Linux: Trouble converting FileSystem metadata with fscdsconv in Linux (Veritas Storage Foundation)

    Hello everyone,
    I'm in the process of migrating an Oracle DataBase from Solaris 5.10 server to Linux Red Hat 6.4, the storage used is SAN and volumes managed by Veritas Storage Foundation on Solaris
    At this point, I'm trying to convert the byte order of some volumes that come from Solaris in my Linux server using the following command:
    /opt/VRTS/bin/fscdsconv -y -e -f /tmp/vxConv/dbtemp01.tmp -t os_name=Linux,arch=x86 /dev/vx/rdsk/dgtemp/dbtemp01
    Note: Because of the text formating, the above command could span several lines, but I'm executing it in just one
    And I get the following errors:
    UX:vxfs fscdsconv: ERROR: V-3-20012: not a valid vxfs file system
    UX:vxfs fscdsconv: ERROR: V-3-24426: fscdsconv: Failed to migrate
    Searching for a solution of these errors in the Veritas forums, I've found this post, where the user mikebounds gives some steps to migrate Solaris to Linux. I've found that I've replicated these steps but I get stuck on the fscdsconv because the beforementioned errors.
    Does anyone know what could be happening here or have any sugestion to share?
    Software Versions involved:
    RHEL 6.4 x86_64
    Veritas Storage Foundation Enterprise 6.2.0.100 on Linux
    Solaris 5.10
    Veritas 5.0 on Solaris
    Disk layout v7
    vxfs filesystem format
    Oracle 10g
    Thank you very much in advance for any help/ideas to solve this
    Best regards
