Moving database from windows to linux

carragomJun 28 2016 — edited Jun 30 2016

Hey there,

Trying to move a database from Windows to Linux.

Source:

OS: Windows 2003 server 32bits

Oracle Version: 10.2.0.3.0 -- select version from v$instance

Oracle Platform: Microsoft Windows IA (32-bit) -- select platform_name from v$database

Destination:

OS: Oracle Linux 5.11 64bits

Oracle Version: 10.2.0.5.0

Oracle Platform: Linux x86 64-bit

I'm trying to use RMAN's convert database and following this guide. So far I managed to:

  • Export my database with convert in the source system.
  • Use the transport script to start the database in NOMOUNT on the target system.
  • Create the control file on the target system with the converted data files and three log files.

The problem arise when I try to open my database with 'ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS'. This is the error I'm getting:

SQL> ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS;

ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS

*

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced

On my alert file I see the following error:

Tue Jun 28 18:58:39 CST 2016

ALTER DATABASE OPEN RESETLOGS

Tue Jun 28 18:58:39 CST 2016

Errors in file /u01/app/oracle/admin/ORCL/udump/orcl_ora_5065.trc:

ORA-00313: open failed for members of log group 1 of thread 1

ORA-00312: online log 1 thread 1: '/u01/app/oracle/oradata/ORCL/redo01a.log'

ORA-27037: unable to obtain file status

Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such file or directory

Now the file /u01/app/oracle/oradata/ORCL/redo01a.log was create when I created the database and it does exist with a size of 51M. So I'm a bit lost here. No idea what else to do. Any advice is welcome.
