Oracle DBs Migration Windows to Linux

Ricio · 08-26-2009, 12:26 PM

Hello Everyone...

Ive been pushing the migration to linux servers in the company I work for, and I ve found that we hold our Oracle databases in Windows XP 32 bit system, and I want to migrate them to a Oracle Linux Enterprise 64 bit system, is there anyone with experience here that can point me to the right direction??

Is it a simple export/import of databases?
Must I Export/Import with special parameters?
In order to use the database in 64 bit is there something that I must do after the migration?

Thank you...

Oracle is something of a universe in of itself. You might consider working with their (admittedly cumbersome) support to get definitive answers to your questions.
