Migrate GoldenGate trail files and checkpoint files from Solaris to Linux

WoodsNov 22 2016 — edited Nov 22 2016

This question is not about migrating the Oracle database.

Scenario:  Two Oracle 11gR2 databases using GoldenGate 12c with bi-directional replication will be moving from Solaris to Linux. 

Migrating the databases is not an issue, that can be done with Export/Import or RMAN to support the conversion of Big/Little Endian byte order.

GoldenGate stores the trail files and other data files on disk.

Do these data files also need to be converted when the database is migrated? 

If no, why not?

If yes, what tools are available to support the file conversion.

In advance, thanks
