Question regarding Oracle 19c Database Migrate & Upgrade
I have been assigned a task to migrate Oracle 19c databases to a new hardware by creating physical standby database on new hardware and failover to make it as new primary.
Please note the OS and database versions
Source OS: Oracle Linux Server release 7.4 - OVM
Source Database: 19c Enterprise Ed - Database Release Update: 19.6.0.0.200114 (30557433) RAC
Destination OS: Oracle Linux Server release 8.7 – OLVM
Destination Database: 19c Enterprise Ed - DATABASE RELEASE UPDATE: 19.18.0.0.230117 (REL-JAN230131) (34765931) RAC
Draft Steps:
1) Create Physical standby on new hardware
2) Failover to new Physical standby on new hardware to make it primary
3) Apply data patch on datapatch on new primary.
