Hello Oracle Experts -

Environment: Redhat 6.7, EE 12.1
DB size: 4TB

We have been looking into switching the Characterset of a DB from "WE8ISO8859P15" to "AL16UTF8". This is a standalone Enterprise Edition database (non-RAC, No Data Guard).

We have looked at DB Migration Assistant and DataPump as possible options. Both involves quite a bit of downtime, wondering if there is a better way to perform this activity? Would Transportable tablespace be an option?

Thanks much in advance
-Upendra
