Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Installing 8.1.7.3 along with 8.1.6.0
You can install 8.1.7 on a machine that has 8.1.6.
During the install you can just migrate the database
to 8.1.7 and save all the hassle.
The migration process show you a screen with the 8.1.6 databases installed on the machine and allow you to choose which one you will migrate.
This way you do not have to export/import/notify users etc.

Hi,
We have 8.1.6.0 installed on a NT server. There are 2
databases(development of size 120MB when FULL export is done) already
running on the system. Now our requirement is to install 8.1.7.4 and
bring one of the DB into this environment.
My plan of approach is as follows, any feedback, comments are most
welcome:
1) Shutdown all the existing databases
2) Install 8.1.7.3 from cd's and apply 8.1.7.4 patch to bring it to ver
8.1.7.4
3) Bring the 8.1.6 databases UP 4) Create a new database in 8.1.7.4 environment 5) Export the 8.1.6 database and import it into 8.1.7.4's database (Idecided to do it with export as the DB was not very large) 6) Update the devolopers with the new DB's SID and etc. details 7) Drop the 8.1.6 database once devolopers are satisfied with the 8.1.7.4 database
Questions:
1) Are there any ramifications of installing 8.1.7.4 engine on the same
system where 8.1.6 is already present? Obviously in a different home.
2) Database migration in this scenario is done using EXP/IMP. Is this
ok? Why? Any better alternatives?
3) Do I have to really shutdown the databases and other oracle services
before starting the 8.1.7.4 installation?
Thanks,
Venu G.
