Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: export database from AIX to Sun
Gopal,
Are all the datatype representations identical between solaris and HP OS? Are they both big-indian/little-indian? I know you and I have discussed this before - I actually requested Oracle to build a migration utility that takes this approach.
As for CTAS over DB link, doesn't that do on e round trip per row? That seems like it would be much slower than parallel unload/load over named pipes / dd with large blocksizes over a fast network. The latter approach uses many fewer round trips
One advantage of CTAS over DB link is that the new tables can be created NOLOGGING, which cannot be accomplished with import. SQL*Loader, however can do parallel nologging loads, so I would say the most supportable, most efficient method is parallel unload/nologging sqlload over named pipes/dd/rsh/dd with large blocksizes over a fast network.
