Re: Database Catchup

You may be able to achieve the desired results by creating a clone of the unicode database and then applying the logs. Theoretically, you are able to redefine the characterset of the database this way (rebuilding the control file), but it would definately be a test the first time. The definative word here is "may".

If you wanted them to stay in synch - I would consider replication.
