Folks

 

What could be the approach to Convert a Large 3 TB NON-RAC Production
Database with Datafiles existing on cooked/Mounted Filesystem (UFS) to a
3 instance RAC using "ASM"?

 

NOTE - Production Database is Near 24*7 with Minimal Downtime.

 

Can the Datafiles be copied using "dd" Command from the Mounted FS to
the RAW Device Space of ASM?

 

Need the basic approach Steps for conversion.

 

Any Docs, pointers, Links will help. (Did search Oracle Documentation,
but could NOT find a practical Hands-On Note)

 

Config:-

---------

Solaris 10

Oracle 10gR2

3 instance RAC

 

Thanks indeed
