OCI library side should also be the same for all unix platforms, but your application definitely needs to be tested on Sun, there's many differences between platforms, especially when using threading and other advanced programming techniques.

Exp/imp of a 200GB database is possible, but I'd think the time required would be the long pole in the tent. I'd say your looking at at least a 4 day weekend at best and only if you used direct mode. Someone has hinted that you can simply move the datafiles from one box to the other. Well I'd not loose the original system before you prove that.

Re: HP-Sun Cross Platform Migration - Exp/Imp, CTAS over
Aah !Hint, hint that some certain RDBMS vendor will offer cross-platform compatibility of database files soon. Hemant At 04:14 AM 07-06-03 -0800, you wrote: Sashidar: In THEORY HP datafiles and Sun data files are compaible. That is you can just move the HP data files to the Sun server and recreate the data files. Both data files are in same endianness and they are cross platform compatible. There is no tool to convert a datafile from one OS format to another OS format. Some time back, some one (Guess who??) tried developing a tool and the idea was dropped since Oracle started addressing this issue as a standard feature inside the RDBMS product. So there is no third party tool available in the market to do that conversion and I don't expect any new tools to do that. Having said that, that above said method is NOT officially supported by Oracle in current versions. You have to wait for some more time to get that officially supported by Oracle (clue!!) If you have a faster interconnect CTAS will be much faster than export import method, I remember seeing some comparitive numbers in Metalink.. Have you checked that? = Have a nice day !!

RE: HP-Sun Cross Platform Migration - Exp/Imp, CTAS over dblink or
1. Join the 10i beta program 2. Convert your 9.2 datafiles using the cross-platform transportable tablespaces feature of a dummy 10i instance. ;-) Or... Back when one of our system swas at around 200M, we had a C program that dumped table data in parallel by rowid ranges, wrote the streams in SQL*Loader native format to named pipes that were being dd'd with large block sizes across a fast network, to several SQL*Loader processes on the other side using direct/unrecoverable. We ran several of these at a time. As soon as a table would finish we would kick off the index creation in parallel/unrecoverable mode. The goal was to get both the source and target hosts as close to 100% utilization as possible. This was Oracle 8.0.5, migrating Compaq Tru64 (DEC OSF to HP-UX 11 64-bit. The migration took 6 hours. It shouldn't have even taken that long, but we were clumsy in a few ways. There's a lot involved in a migration. Lots of dependencies and details to think about. I recommend repeated practice runs on test equipment before trying the real thing. There's a lot of blood to be squeezed out of this stone to get the time down and reliability up. -- Jeremiah Wilton http://www.speakeasy.net/~jwilton On Mon, 9 Jun 2003, Goulet, Dick wrote: Exp/imp of a 200GB database is possible, but I'd think the time required would be the long pole in the tent.

RE: HP-Sun Cross Platform Migration - Exp/Imp, CTAS over
Direct mode doesn't work across platforms [or, at least, I haven't tried it]. It isn't supported. SQLLDR, Parallel Export-Import, Parallel Index Build are options -- these can be done in parallel. Run at least two rounds of testing to see how you can migrate the data.

Re: HP-Sun Cross Platform Migration - Exp/Imp, CTAS over dblink or ..
Sashidar: In THEORY HP datafiles and Sun data files are compaible. That is you can just move the HP data files to the Sun server and recreate the data files. Both data files are in same endianness and they are cross platform compatible. There is no tool to convert a datafile from one OS format to another OS format. Some time back, some one (Guess who??) tried developing a tool and the idea was dropped since Oracle started addressing this issue as a standard feature inside the RDBMS product. So there is no third party tool available in the market to do that conversion and I don't expect any new tools to do that. Having said that, that above said method is NOT officially supported by Oracle in current versions. You have to wait for some more time to get that officially supported by Oracle (clue!!) If you have a faster interconnect CTAS will be much faster than export import method, I remember seeing some comparitive numbers in Metalink.. Have you checked that? = Have a nice day !!

The catch is the hassle of getting the data out to a flat file and creating a loader control file. 2. Database links and exp/imp are roughly the same speed, so you have to test to see which will be fastest for your situation.

Typically, just a handful of tables contain most of the data. In my case, a single table contains about 25% of the data. It is worth the effort to develop a method to dump the data to a flat file and to create a loader control file if that is the fastest method. For the many small files, just use exp/imp.

Cross Platform RPC

Re: Cross Platform RPC
I'm supporting Siebel; where the database is Oracle running on Solaris while the Siebel application server software runs on an NT box. As part of the DB shutdown script an rsh is issued to the NT box to stop the application server s/w prior to bringing down the DB. In the DB startup script the application server is started after the DB comes up. I've successfully tested starting from NT invoking a script on Solaris, but don't have anything just yet in production that uses this capability. HTH YMMV!

Multi-platform Editors - Was: Unix
Hi Roland, (DISCLAIMER - I have no interest in Pacemaker software, other than that Paul has a good product) I use an editor called CRiSP extensively - it is a GUI-based version of a character based editor called Brief (from Underware), that got bought by Borland (remember them ...). It runs under Windows, Unix, Linux It has lots and lots of features (including the ability to FTP a file from a UNIX server, allow you to edit it locally, and then FTP it back, if you really want to). But you could also edit the file directly on the server if you wanted to. It is also the only editor that I know that will allow you to highlight a COLUMN, and then do regular expression changes on the column. Unlimited Undo's, file compares, extensible etc. etc. Colouration of reserved words (including SQL) - very configurable -. Pricing is extremely good as well (GBP 150.00 for Win/Nt), and he is constantly working to improve it. You can also buy locked or Floating licenses. Works well with your favourite complier to become an IDE (allows you to compile from within the editor, picks up the output and displays the errors and highlights the offending lines) Go to www.pacemaker.co.uk and have a look - you can also download an evaluation copy there.

Moving database to another platform with GL app 10.7 Character mode
Hi List, Currently, we are running Oracle Application 10.7 ( GL and AP modules, character mode) + Oracle Database .. all of them on one AIX box, so now we have plan to move Oracle database to SUN Solaris, and still kept Oracle application on old machine. I wonder about the Oracle Application library (FND) on AIX can connect to new database ? Please give me your advice about this situation and email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thanks so much.
