Database upgrade process and step

Hi,

I am trying to do as following:

I have old server with 10.2.0.3 32 bits on Linux.

We are trying to have RH Linux 5.4 64 bits and oracle 10.2.0.3 64 bits.

How can i restore from 10.2.0.3 32 bits cold backup to new server?

Thanks
Pat

I don't think so you can do that because of the difference in endian formats.

I did almost similar activity (Windows 64bit / DB 32 bit to Windows 64bit / DB 64 bit) last week using export / import model to migrate the DB.

Thanks,
