Cross platform migration DB from Windows to Linux platform

edited Aug 20, 2016 5:00AM in Database Administration (MOSC) 5 commentsAnswered

Hi,

I would like to transfer a database of 300G.

The source and target servers have different endians.  Source= Windows 2008 Enterprise R2 64 bit,  Target=Linux SUSE 11

The source database has approx 15 schémas with its mapping tablespaces. The target database was created using DBCA.

I tried to use the rman convert (tablespace and datafile) utlity but had all kinds of issues and not a good option.

Should I use datapump instead ? Or should I pre-create the tablespaces in target and use exp/imp ? Should I stick with 'rman convert' ?  Which usefull Doc ID ? 

Our permiited down time is approx 5 hours.

Howdy, Stranger!
