Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Re: Move whole database
Hopefully Immo didn't try this yet. It is completely wrong
Steps to be executed
1 make a cold backup of that database (You never know)
2 restart the database and in svrmgr<xx>
issue
alter database backup controlfile to trace
then
show parameter user_dump_dest
the trace file will be located in that directory.
3 take the whole lot to the new server including that trace file
4 alter the control_files parameter in init<sid>.ora
5 edit the tracefile created in step 2 to reflect the new directory names
6 start the services
7 run the trace file through svrmgr<xx>
Now you should be set
