RE: Oracle Migration 8.1.6.0 to 8.1.7.2

The server already has 8.1.6.0 and 8.1.7.2 installed in separate oracle homes. We could install 8.1.7.0 in a third oracle home (we have the media) but are trying to avoid that as we would only need it for migration after which we have no use for it. So I was just wondering if we can migrate directly (8.1.6.0 -> 8.1.7.2) instead of a two step migration (8.1.6.0 -> 8.1.7.0 -> 8.1.7.2)... just to avoid installing yet another version of oracle on this server. The docs seem to advise the two step process but don't go as far as stating that it must be done this way so I wondered if others have first hand experience?

Thanks,
Ken

Ken,

    How do you plan on getting to 8.1.7.2? You need to apply the patch set ontop of an 8.1.7.0 install. I'd double check your CD's.

List,

One of the DBA's here needs to migrate a fairly sizeable database from 8.1.6.0 to 8.1.7.2 on Solaris. The doc's state that it is advisable to migrate to 8.1.7.0 and then go to 8.1.7.2 but we don't have 8.1.7.0 installed and don't want to install it unless we really have to. Anyone know if it is possible to migrate directly to 8.1.7.2 (docs don't explicitly say it can't be done but don't seem to suggest it either).
