Questions on Migrating/upgrading using datapump

edited Oct 19, 2011 3:41AM in Database Install/Upgrade/Opatch (MOSC) 1 comment
We are working on migrating a 11.1.0.7 database from HP-UX IA 64 bit (Non-ASM) to a new server 11.2.0.1 running RHEL 5.7 64 bit (Using ASM).

We have decided on using datapump imp/exp with full database option.

expdp system/password@db1 full=Y directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=DB10G.dmp logfile=expdpDB10G.log

impdp system/password@db2 full=Y directory=TEST_DIR dumpfile=DB10G.dmp logfile=impdpDB10G.log
My questions are:
  1. Since the platforms are different endianess, is a conversion required to do the import?
  2. How should the new DB be prepared before the import?  (blank database, no tablespaces, pre-created tablespaces, no users, pre-created users?) 

Howdy, Stranger!
