We are still ways out before we implement the solution (several months), but
will definitely keep posted.
I had a kind of related question w.r.t. AIX vs Redhat Linux. Currently we use
CIO with AIX. Is there anything equivalent on Linux (that doesn't involve ASM)?

Now, since you have experience with actually doing the migration, letThis can be achieved with a minimal downtime, by shutting down the database and
me know if this would work (we will of course try it out soon too):
1. Copy the 'datafile copies' from source to destination staging area
2. Run the 'convert from platform' RMAN command, to convert those
datafile copies so they land in the real datafile locations
3. Copy the subsequent 'Incrementals' from source to destination area
4. Convert the Incrementals on destination to apply to real datafileYes it does. However, few steps have been left out. I am not sure whether AIX
(from Step 2).
5. Repeat 3 & 4, until you're almost caught up, and do a final 3 & 4
with source tablespaces being read-only.
Does this make sense? Pls share your thoughts.
