Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Converting from ASCII7 to UTF8
We are planning on converting our 240-Gig data warehouse (will be 8.1.7.2
on Sun Solaris 2.6)
from character set ASCII7 to UTF8.
Has anybody had any experience in doing this? If you have, what pitfalls,
problems, etc. did
you encounter? Anything that we need to watch out for? What about
longs?
A particular concern for our database owners is whether this conversion
will increase the size
of the database. Anybody know of any anecdotal evidence either way?
Thanks,
Cherie
