install ORACLE8

What is the preferred method to set up ORACLE8? We have a brand new machine and want to set it up with ORACLE8. We are currently running 7.2.3. Is it better to install both versions on the new machine, restore a tape backup to the 7.2.3 d/b and then use the migration utility or just install v8 on the new machine and use exp/imp to load it. One problem is that our current version of AIX only allows file sizes of 2G and one of the tables involved is about 2.5G in size. Also, I would assume that the exp/imp route would be quite time consuming. Any sugestions would be greatly appreciated. Received on Fri Nov 13 1998 - 00:00:00 CST
