hi,
i am to migrate our db from solaris to linux. it would be the same instances, same users, same data, same schema, same evrything. can you please provide me a guideline or any useful link.. i'm not a dba and the dba is not available - but this is urgent. so it would be nice if i can get simple instructions. anyway, it's the development db, not prod, so am doing it...
thanks in advance..

Although why
a) this would be done at all
b) this would be done by a non-dba
would be questions I'd want answered if I were working there.

Mahesh,
Can you please explain how materialized views can be used to migrate a database from one O.S to another.

There are only two options available.
Export and import
or
using materialized views.
In your case, exporting the source and importing into target is the simplest way.

If you are non-DBA then it may be good to know that you should create the tablespaces with the exact name existing in your solaris environment.
If you don't create the tablespaces then when you import it in Linux all your objects will go in your system tablespace by default and this is really serious problem.
If you are not able to create the tablespace on your own then it may be a good idea to ask someone else to perform the task. Export/Import is easy but not that easy if you are not DBA.

Thanks for your response! But that doesn't answer my question.
I want to know how one can migrate a database from one O.S to another O.S using materialized views. This was one of the suggestions made in the same thread. I am just curious to know how that can be done.

Hi, If you are using 10g there is another method to do is using RMAN convert command. for complete steps please refer to oracle's RMAN advanced users guide.
