Move database 10GR2 from Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server 2008

933205Apr 25 2012 — edited May 16 2012

Hi,

I have to move the database to a new server.
The database is an Enterprise 10GR2 (10.2.0.3.0) with the Partitionning option on a Windows Server 2003 x64.
The new server is a Windows Server 2008 x64.

All the files (admin, flash recovery area and oradata) are on one disk. So when I have to do this, usually I just install a new instance on the new server and toggle the disk to the new server, start directly the database and everything is ok !

However it seems that the version 10.2.0.3 is not available for Windows 2008 x64 (in the Downloads part of oracle.com), I saw that I have to Install 10.2.0.4 or higher.
I'm newbie on patching a database, so what I have to do ? First upgrade the database on the 2003 server and then install 10.2.0.4 on the new server ? Or other ?

Thanks.
