So you look ok...

You could use tts or export, you could probably also check on using rman duplicate to another host

Good Luck!

    Hi Anurag

    This is called "Platform Migration"

    High level overview

    The source database needs to be the same version as the target
    If the Endian  is the same for each platform then you useTTS
    If the Endian  is different, you need RMAN to convert the
    datafiles along with TTS
    NFS mounts of the target are a big help and could be quicker (&
    more logical)  than FTP

    Hi All,
Can we move a Oracle 9i (9.2.0.7 <http://9.2.0.7/>) database from
    a Solaris 9(64 bit server) server to an AIX 5.2 (64 bit) server,
    by using RMAN backup/restore/recovery??
