RE: Migrating TOOLS tablespace to ASSM

Mainly because I originally used this technique to transport a set of tablespaces from one non-ASM instance to another ASM one - in those circumstances I didn't have to take the tablespace offline at all. However by only taking the datafile offline at the point I did does minimize the downtime for anyone who might want to use the tablespace rather than having it offline for the duration of the copy. I may even have got away with an "alter tablespace .... begin backup" rather than "alter table read only" but as I said I was adapting a working example. In fact I still think the rman copy , convert, switch to backup approach is probably the "correct" method but I didn't have the syntax to hand.

Cheers,

Ian

Why don't you take the tablespace offline before you move the datafile?

I didn't see you get an answer to this but the steps below seem to work. I
believe another alternative would be to use the rman convert command.

Tim,

Thanks, however, the "alter table ... move..." does not work when they have

"Long" column types, and hence the question.
