We have been doing the reverse (SUN to AIX) here on a large number of databases anywhere from a 1GB in size to > 500 GB in size. We use parallel exports over pipes (using DD) and import at the same time. Have a GB Ethernet adapter direct connected between the two boxes. I can do a 500GB database in about 8 hours or so on a really good day. RF

We want to migrate an Oracle db (approx. 50 GB) from AIX to Sun Solaris. What would be the best way to achieve this? Export/Import I guess, right? This is 8.1.7 on Sun Solaris/AIX.
