Hi,

This might be a stupid question, but I'll give it a go anyway.

I have two Unix boxes - a production and a newly created test box. The
production box has 8.0.5 and the test has 8.0.6 installed.

Is it possible to stop the database, take a backup of all the datafiles
(through the operating system) and then move them to the test server (in the
same directory structure they were in in the production box). Would the
database open successfully?

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Regards,

Sujatha
