Hi all, I have to move a database from oracle9i on windows 2000 to oracle 9i on Aix. I backup the database on windows with rman with options "include current controlfile" and "backup archivelog all". I created a new database on Aix with the same name as in windows. How can I now recover my backup on Aix? Because on windows's controlfile, for example, the location of datafile is samething like "c:\....", but in Aix "/oracle/....
How can I risolve this problem? Or rman do so automatically? Does exist another way to move a database across platform? Thanks!
PS. I moved the backup file from windows to a folder in aix via ftp and I tried to restore database:
rman>run {
allocate channel disco1 type disk;
restore database;
recover database;
alter database open;
}
But it result an error:

RMAN-03002: failure during compilation of command
RMAN-03013: command type: restore
RMAN-03002: failure during compilation of command
RMAN-03013: command type: IRESTORE

RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 2 found to restore
RMAN-06023: no backup or copy of datafile 1 found to restore
It seems rman can't see the backup file! Any suggestion? Received on Wed Apr 02 2003 - 07:06:24 CST
