RE: Issue on disaster recovery

It was Solaris 2.8 to Solaris 2.6 and I copied the Oracle binaries and datafiles for one database a small one. It does save time and relinking did seem to resolve the issue as relinking with the new version of Solaris caused Oracle to point to the correct libraries from the OS-side.

Paula - When you say you copied Oracle from one host to another, what do you mean? Did you copy the Oracle data files or the Oracle binaries? I am not familiar with those two Solaris versions, and you didn't say which Oracle version this is, but you might check the certification matrix to make sure this Oracle version will work on both systems. I'm assuming you considered installing Oracle on the other system and decided to save time. Just a couple of off-the-top ideas.

Guys,  

To save time we thought we could simply copy Oracle from one host with version Solaris 2.8 to another host with version 2.6. The error we are getting is:  

ld.so.1: svrmgrl: fatal: libgen.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory

Killed

and I cannot open any databases. Can I fix this by relinking? Why is this file being called? My LD_LIBRARY_PATH looks correct and on the previous host this file existed so it must be a Solaris 2.8 library (so says system admin.). Do I have to reinstall Oracle software for this to work? Can I just copy over the file or what if it was the same version of Solaris?  

Thanks,

Paula
