Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: problem oracle mogration 8.0.5 to 10g
Personally, I've nearly always used manual migration. I've never used exp/imp, as it is only useful for rather small databases.
I did use the GUI migration tool on one occasion. In general I use the command line as it allows more control.
3. what were the runtime problems u faced and what are the risk factors we need to take into account?
You need to build a test environment that mirrors production.
This will help you determine runtime issues and risk.
Other risk is dependent on your environment. You're asking the wrong people. You should be asking your business users.
4. I have migration doc from oracle, but do you have your own prepard doc which describes the steps required for the migration
Yes, I developed it by using the migration doc as a guideline and tailored it for our environment.
I recommend you do the same. No, I can't share mine.
5. ALSO they customr has some other tools like power builder and forms 4.5 running,, so will it have any problem for connecting to oracle10g ?
See #3 and #4 regarding a test environment.
