Hi
1. Create a new database on the Solaris
2. Create the tablespaces with enough amount
of Megas for the data size to ve imported.
3. Export from the AIX, the line should be like :
$exp system/manager_at_orcl buffer=16384 consistent=y
compress=y constraints=y full=y grants=y
indexes=y recordlength=16384 rows=y file=xxx.dmp
log=xxx.log
4. Note that if the exp doesn't receive all this
long line then copy it to a text file and run like
$exp system/manager_at_orcl parfile=exp.par
5. Import this file in the Solaris,
with the same parameters.
6. Note that unfortunately import doesn't always
get all the stuff.
7. U must have the same character set in both
computers otherwise U must have a dba permission
for doing conversions.
8. Check and couble check after the import succeed
.
9. By teh way, I havn't succeed to install
oracle8i (EE) on my new Solaris 2.6 (Sparc).
