Hi Listers Saw this on SearchOracle What new features are customers excited about in 10G? Abramson: What they've done is given you complete flexibility. They have introduced transportable table spaces, so all you have to do is export metadata and just copy files across during an upgrade. You don't have to do a full extraction. I've been in a situation were a company was on Sun and moving to HP, and they wanted to know how to do it. I told them that you just unload the database and reload the database. It sounds easy, but with two terabytes of data it's not unless you have transportable table spaces.
Can anyone confirm that this is true, that is, the implication that I can copy a transportable tablespace from Sun to HP or vice versa without issue. I suppose then is it big endian - little endian constrained or not Cheers -- ================================================= Peter McLarty E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Technical Consultant WWW: http://www.mincom.com APAC Technical Services Phone: +61 (0)7 3303 3461 Brisbane, Australia Mobile: +61 (0)402 094 238 Facsimile: +61 (0)7 3303 3048 ================================================= "If people did not sometimes do silly things, nothing intelligent would ever get done." - Ludwig Wittgenstein ================================================= Mincom "The People, The Experience, The Vision" ================================================= This transmission is for the intended addressee only and is confidential information.
