Hi Experts,

Actually, I've gone through some topics in the forum relating to this but I am not satisfied enough.

Could you please if possible give me steps in migrating Oracle10g R1 on my Windos XP to Linux AS5 running Oracle10g R2.

Thanks in good anticipation.

Cherish

Three basic steps :

- Install Oracle on Linux
- Create the target database and the table spaces
- Export from source / Import on target

Then you can continue with step2, creating an empty database, with the same tablespaces as the original one.

Additionally, you might want to look into transportable tablespace. I am not sure if it was 10g release 1 or 2 that allowed cross platform transportable tablespaces.
