I've been looking through the Streams manuals trying to find out if there are any problems implementing streams between Big Endian and Little Endian based platforms. So far all I can find is information about the database convert command in RMAN. Has anyone done this? Are there any problems with doing this? I wouldn't think there would be but I'd feel a lot better if someone else has tried this and seen it work. Thanks, Kyle Brokaw Database Team Manager Intermountain Healthcare
