migrating 8.1.6 on veritas quick I/O to 8.1.7.4

[prakashs43]

Hi Friends,

We are planning to migrate 8.1.6.3 database which is on veritas quick I/O.

I have checked the compatibility matrix .

VxFS Version 2.6 7 8 9 QIO QLOG
------------- --- - - - ------- -----
4.0 n y y y 4.0 none
3.5 y y y y 3.5 3.5 (MP2RP1 patch)
3.4 y y y y 3.4 3.4 (Solaris 9 need to run 3.4s9)
3.3.3 y y y n 3.3.3 1.2
3.3.2 y y n n 3.3.2 1.1
3.3.1 y n n n 3.3.1.1 1.0.5
3.3 y n n n None None
3.2.5/3.2.6 y n n n None None


i think from this diagram we can have both 8.1.7 and 8.1.6 on VxFS 3.3.3 version .

can anybody update this thread on how to migrate from 8.1.6 to 8.1.7.4 , if the databse is on veritas Quick I/O filesysetm,

I searched most of the veritas Quick I/O threads in this site , but couldn't find any .

appreciate your help .

thanks .

i know nothing of veritas quick io, but surely you can just migrate the database regardles of the filesystem. In which case, go read the migration guide

actually quick i/o files uses links to all datafiles ..
i was wondering if oracle installation and oracle migration is diffrent .

recently i have done oracle migration on test database on solaris . but the production one is on solaris + having veritas quick I/O format ...
