CSSCAN isn't it? please post fromchar/tochar values.
[Database Scan Parameters]
Parameter Value
------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------
CSSCAN Version v1.2
Instance Name SUNCONV
Database Version 9.2.0.8.0
Scan type Full database
Scan CHAR data? YES
Database character set WE8ISO8859P1
FROMCHAR WE8ISO8859P1
TOCHAR al32utf8
Scan NCHAR data? NO
Array fetch buffer size 1000000
Number of processes 3
Capture convertible data? NO
------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------
al32utf8 is not a binary superset of WE8ISO8859P1; check Metalink Note #260192.1
al32utf8 is not a binary superset of WE8ISO8859P1; check Metalink Note #260192.1
WE8MSWIN1252 is a binary superset of WE8ISO8859P1. So I need to first convert clob data to WE8MSWIN1252. Metalink Note #260192.1 does suggest the same. If this is right, could you please let me know the steps involved to convert from
WE8ISO8859P1 to WE8MSWIN1252 and then to al32utf8? Should I do fix the Lossy first? I still have to handle dictionary "convertible data" (sys.source$, sys.metastylesheet and sys.external_tab$).
Thanks,
