Post-Install Database Migration

Gentlemen,

I'm trying to update Oracle to the latest version via the most recent patch for 64-bit Solaris machines.

The process has gone smoothly up until the post-installation configuration.

It says that to complete the installation, I should start up my database and the TNS listener service, and then run the 'startupmigrate' script from $ORACLE_HOME. However, I can't seem to find any 'startupmigrate' script from anywhere inside the main Oracle directory, and typing 'startupmigrate' in SQL*Plus doesn't seem to work either.

Do any of you folks have advice that might be helpful? I don't have access to Oracle's MetaLink yet.

Thanks a lot in advance!

where does it say that?

It should be

Code:

---

     
      startup migrate

Yeah, you're right. The instructions have an error and I didn't expect that they would, so I didn't try separating the two.

Thanks a lot.

hi
you have to log in as a sys user, and startup migrate is one of the startup method from oracle9.2.0.1 onwards.

so don't look for the script.

hope this helps

slight correction, log in as sysdba
