How to create 10gr2 DATAGUARD on mixed platform Windows ITANIUM and Windows INTEL x64
Hello,
I have to move a SAP database from Windows ITANIUM to Windows INTEL x64.
Different platform id, same little endian format
This is a certified configuration as related on note 413484.1
the general guideline is :
- Shutdown immediate of the Primary
- COLD-backup of all RDBMS files
- Startup Primary
- Copy the COLD-backup to the Standby
- Start the standby instance in MOUNT using the controlfile from the COLD-backup
- RMAN CONVERT DATABASE, See "Avoid Datafile Conversion during Transportable Database" (Doc ID 732053.1)
- SHutdown the Standby
- Create a Standby controlfile on the Primary and transfer it to the Standby
- Start the standby in managed recovery mode
