copying a database
Hi:
I am working on a project that will involve copying an Oracle 10.2.0.3 on an AIX 64bit system to an Oracle 10.2.0.4 Linux 5 system. I wanted to conduct a Proof of Concept and simply place the database in backup mode and then copy all the datafiles over and conduct an incomplete recovery.
As I research I found that Linux 64 bit uses little endian and AIX 64bit uses big endian. Understanding this, does this rule out my POC altogether or does endianess only refer to transportable tablespaces?
Would the standby database concept work here is export/import my only option?
Please advise.
