Migrate EBS 12.1.3 with DB 11.2.0.4 from Supercluster Servers on Solaris platform to Oracle EXAData with Linux OS

[sravan]

Hi All,

I am on 12.1.3 with DB 11.2.0.4

Planning to migrate DB  from Supercluster Servers on Solaris  to Oracle Exadata with Linux OS and want to upgarde DB to 19c on a single step.

Is this possible?

And wants to know which document to follow from migration of DB to Exadata on linux. I have found below document for platform migration. I would like to know there are any specific documents for migrating DB from Supercluster Servers on Solaris  to Oracle Exadata with Linux

R11i / R12: Oracle E-Business Suite Upgrades and Platform Migration (Doc ID 1377213.1)

It is a cross platform EBS database migration.

The root document to follow is "R11i / R12: Oracle E-Business Suite Upgrades and Platform Migration (Doc ID 1377213.1)", so your finding is correct.

In this document, you will be focusing on the methods given in the following subtitle:

C. Migration to a new platform of different endian formats

As for your upgrade related questiın -> A Database upgrade as part of this migration option *is* supported both for export/import method and TTS method.

Hi Erman,

Thanks for the information. So no other specific document related exa is required?.

Also any reference document saying both cross platform migration and DB upgrade can be followed at one go?

Yes it can be done in one go, as the documentation states..

For instance for exp/imp method; note 1377213.1 states the following;

"A Database upgrade as part of this migration option *is* supported as the export/import process for higher versions of the Database (for example, 11gR2) supports the import of files exported from lower versions of the database (such as 10gR2). Please review the above documentation for further details.

AS for the RAC related part; (according to our target db releae and EBS release)

you may follow ->

Using Oracle 12c Release 1 Real Application Clusters with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 1490850.1)
Using Oracle Real Application Clusters 11g Release 2 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 (Doc ID 823587.1)
Using Oracle 19c RAC Multitenant (Single PDB) with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2 (Doc ID 2530665.1)
Using Oracle 19c RAC Multitenant (Single PDB) with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1 (Doc ID 2530680.1)

So, you will combine the related document that I mentioned, and do the migration and RAC configuration accordingly.

I have also EBS RAC migration related blog posts and article in my blog.
