Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Upgrading from 8.0.5 to 8.1.7 - Please help
This is definitely not a production db. I was just told by Oracle that it is possible to migrate the 8.0.5 datafiles using 8.1.7 software. They say I do not need to install 8.0.5 on the "new" server. Finding instructions in a document covering this is not easy! -fs
