Ken,
Jared is probably right as far as a checklist for the actual upgrade.
A test run through will probably highlight any problem areas.
After the upgrade there are a number of things that usually need to be
checked/modified/recompiled (of course it depends on how you upgrade).
Here is a list that I found useful. Please add to it if you wish.
- ODBC connections
- applications
- DBA scripts in SQL, PERL, etc.
- SQL*LDR jobs
- regular imports, exports, snapshots
- FTP's of data to be loaded/imported/exported
- database links
- backups
- scheduled jobs
- scripts that mail logs or reports
- alert log check scripts
- parameter files (*.ora)
- metadata for third party query tools

Ken,
The best to do list will be the one you create yourself.
You can do this by reviewing the migration manual, and determining
which steps are appropriate for your environment.

Subject: Oracle DB Upgrade TO DO LIST
I am looking at a project to upgrade a number of Oracle development, test
and production DB's to newer releases. I have reviewed Oracle's list of
tasks from OTN. I would like your feedback on other tasks, etc. that
should be included. Is there a list somewhere on the web that gives a
comprehensive list of tasks that need to be accomplished and "gotchas"?
TIA,
Ken Janusz, CPIM
