Thanks for the wisdom. I read Ruth's comment about different OS and leapt to the wrong conclusion that I had been wrong before, but of course I now realize that I'm wrong (I thought I was mistaken but I was wrong :)

Of course Ruth was referring to different OS version not different OS Platform.

My mistake.

You can go back to you lives people.

endian format and vice versa, and 10g data files are now platform-aware.
this is meant for the cross-platform transportable tablespace feature, though -- I am not an RMAN expert, so I don't know how this affects RMAN
DUPLICATE ...
Kind regards,
Lex.
>>> Mladen.Gogala_at_aetn.com 08/10/04 07:58AM >>> Stephen, "duplicate across platforms" possible in 10g, but impossible in other versions. The requirements for "duplicate" are, quite logically,
identical to the requirements for transportable tablespaces. Prior to 10g,
you couldn't do that across platforms.
