Incorrect Encoding after upgrade from 8i to 11G

edited Aug 20, 2021 9:55AM in Install, Upgrade, Clone, Patch - EBS (MOSC) 3 commentsAnswered
Current Database :Oracle 8i
Window 2000
NLS_CHARACTERSET WE8ISO8859P1
Chinese character store as BIG5 code in varchar2 field

Plan to upgrade to new Database :
Oracle 11g
Window 2008 R2
NLS_CHARACTERSET AL32UTF8

My plan is to use exp.exe to exp all data then imp.exe to 11g.
I found that the Chinese words 心林 (big5 code:A4 DF AA 4C) is re-coded into 心(C2 A4 C3 9F) 林(C2 AA 4C)
It is strange because the correct code should be 心(E5 BF 83) 林(E6 9E 97)

Any idea about the wrong ending?
