Yes, but when I read something like ‘followed by a full or partial import’…in oracle documentation, it leaves me ambiguous as to what happens to the existing system schema in the destination database, and the consequences thereof.

Hi,

 

the paragraph states:

Export/Import

Unlike the DBUA or a manual upgrade, the Export/Import utilities physically copy data from your current database to a new database. You can use either the Oracle Data Pump Export and Import utilities (available as of Oracle Database 10g) or the original Export and Import utilities to perform a full or partial export from your database, followed by a full or partial import into a new Oracle Database 10g database. Export/Import can copy a subset of the data in a database, leaving the database unchanged.

 

I think above paragraph states the use of full for both Export as Import.

Hi

 

It doesnt seem to say anywhere that i can export the whole 8i database with full=y (including sys and system users) and then import into 10g using full=y(including sys and system)

Hi,

Oracle has the Oracle Database Upgrade Guide. In this the method is mentioned. See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/preup.htm#i694345. Start reading from the paragraph Export/Import

Hi

I would like to know any metalink note or Oracle documentation link which spells out that i can do exp full=y on 8i database and imp full=y into 10g database.

I searched this but unable to locate that this is a a supported method for upgrading from 8i to 10g

regards
Hrishy
