Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> 64-to-32-bit "upgrade" (was "8.1.6 to 8.1.7 upgrade")
Stephane,
I've had questions on migrations and upgrades in the past and the final answer has always been: It is always safest to export/import to change what version of Oracle your database uses. It's certainly leaves the tablespaces a helluva lot cleaner than the other methods of migration! Of course, in what most consider a "downgrade" from 64-to-32-bit, I'm not sure the same applies...
BTW, what problems with 64-bit did you encounter?

I did not find on metalink how to "upgrade" and change
the wordsize from 64bit to 32bit.
Yes, I'm tired of waiting for patches that never
come...
