migrating large database without downtime and data loss
860661May 9 2011 — edited May 10 2011Hi all,
I am planning to migrate a DB of size 1 TB from DB to DB (10g both) by expdp/impdp. I estimate it will take more than 24 hrs. So my DB will be down during migration. My questions are:
1. If I make the source DB accessible to users during migration, after migration can I get the data updated and inserted during migration?
2. If not, how can I minimize the downtime? transportable tablespace is confusing for me. I am familiar with expdp.
I will appreciate any suggestion.
thanks in advance
