RE: Oracle8i to 10g upgrade using exp and imp

Hi 
 
My database was around 170Gb pretty smallish what i had done was taken a export 
in 8i using full=y and then imported into 10g using imp full=y .
 
The database is functioning well but my concern was what would have happened to 
the old sys and system objects of 8i that got imported into the new 10g version 
 
regards

Hrishy,
 
Why would you want to do an exp with full=Y?
 
I would simply recreate any scripts to create local roles and users. Include 
any privs assigned to each user in the recreate scripts.
 
Run these scripts to create the roles and users.
Export and import each schema individually.  Export with Oracle 8 and Import 
with Oracle 10.
 
Resolve any problems.  Should be a snap.
 
You don’t say how big your database is and this may be a deciding factor in how 
you do this.
 
Hope this helps.

Tom

Hi

 

It doesnt seem to say anywhere that i can export the whole 8i database with 
full=y (including sys and system users) and then import into 10g using 
full=y(including sys and system)

Hi,

Oracle has the Oracle Database Upgrade Guide. In this the method is mentioned.
See 
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/preup.htm#i694345.
 Start reading from the paragraph Export/Import

Hi

I would like to know any metalink note or Oracle documentation link which 
spells out that i can do exp full=y on 8i database and imp full=y into 10g 
database.

I searched this but unable to locate that this is a a supported method for 
upgrading from 8i to 10g

regards
Hrishy
