Subject: AW: RE: convert big endian to medium endian
thanks for this information. But when I hear the only one way to do something,
I need to know why there is only one way. And why my approach will not work.
My problem is when using XTTS I should (from my understanding) export the
metadata using datapump and the problem this takes 3 days and 4 hours. And from
my understanding why should I export the metadata. Our DBA is an expert and he
told me the export takes long time because of known bug in 11g. In the past I
could copy databases using only cold backup, I could copy the data files in
parallel using several processes. I'm not a DBA (I am from the application
vendor installed on the db) but I read D. Kuhn book from the beginning to the
end. So I need to understand how to to do this task: upgrading 11g on aix to
12g on linux in less than one weekend without using the buggy datapump.
this should be possible or not?The db is only 16tb big.
regards
Ahmed

AFAIK:
The only way this would work would be with transportable tablespaces; either
using the tablespaces, or RMAN (MOS 2013271.1).
There’s no “silver bullet” for this…
IMHO, your best choice is export/import with some sort of replication solution
to help minimize downtime.

Hi all,
I want to test (I hope this weekend) following:
1 from 12c Db on AIX (big endian) I will create a cold backup
2 on Oracle linux (medium endian) I will create a new db using the cold backup
from point 1
3 somehow I should convert the files from point 1 in medium endian
is this possible?
I don't want to use XTTTS and exporting the metadata using data pump.
Kind Regards
Ahmed
