Since the undo_management parameter is static, I'm currious how they plan on doing the switchover online....

Barb:

We moved our SAP system to 9i last year, and are just now evaluating the movement of Rollback segments to UNDO segments. SAP has a very nice note titled "Oracle 9i: Automatic UNDO Management", and it describes a method of switching over while on-line. Yikes!

I did not try that, but I did use this doc as a guide for implementing Automatic UNDO.

I will send you a copy outside of the list. It's 13 printed pages long.

Cheers,
Mike

Howdy, list.
For those of you who migrated a database from 8i to 9i, did you move convert to undo tablespace immediately? Did you run for awhile still using rollback segments then convert later? Any gotcha's?

I cannot find a concise doc on how to change over. (I'm using notes from Kirti's excellent RMOUG presentation on "Understanding Automatic Undo.." but I've already forgotten stuff.)

Here are the steps I know. What I do not know is when to remove my rollback segments. If I add the undo params to init then bounce the db, can I then offline the rbs segs and tablespace after I come back up? Or do I offline them before I bounce the db?

Anyone know of a doc that outlines this stuff? Thanks for any help.

(here's what I think I need to do)

    Changing Rollback Segments to Undo

set compatible 9.0.0 in init (currently 8.1.7.4)

create undo tablespace

   create undo tablespace undotbs1
   datafile '/class17db/u01/undotbs1.dbf'    size 500m;

insert init parameters

	undo_management=AUTO
	undo_retention=10800
	undo_tablespace=UNDOTBS1
	undo_suppress_errors=TRUE

shut down and restart database
