Database upgrade - 9i to 12c - cross platform
Hi,
we have a 9i database running on AIX. It is a stand alone database. no RAC no STANDBY
We need to migrate that database to a new standalone 12c database on Linux 7x
So basically we need to address the cross platform and different endian issue here
We plan to first migrate from 9i to 11.2.0.4 and then upgrade that 11.2.0.4 to 12c
With appx 3 TB of data, export / import is an option that would work but will take a lot of time
With the above scenario, we are looking for guidance / advice to see what other options besides export / import do we have
