11.2.0.4 RAC : cloning lower version database.
Hi ,
We have installed 11.2.0.4 RAC successfully in 2 nodes. Grid home and oracle homes are not shared. I have a requirement to move as lower version database (11.2.0.2) to this new RAC infra
We have a backup of both Oracle binaries and db rman backup. Is this possible. If so , what are the correct steps
1) unzip oracle home (11.2.0.2) in Node 1
2) unzip oracle home (11.2.0.2) in Node 2.
3) from node 1 , clone database using "Rman duplicate database" command. (init.ora cluster_database=false)
4) convert the clone database into cluster_database
Is the steps correct ? Am I missing something.
Thanks
Ram
