Oracle Rac as part of OSDB Migration

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

We are going ahead with OSDB Migration from HP-UX to Linux. Here as HA solution, we plan to implement Oracle RAC on the target systems. Where as the current environment is non RAC.

As part of OSDB migration we are not confident in doing it on Oracle RAC. Documentation for Oracle RAC on SAP explains first go for single instance installation on oracle cluster filesystem and implement RAC as a high availability solution with SAP Enqueue Replication service. Then do the backup and restore process from non RAC system to RAC.

But in our scenario we should go for EXPORT/ IMPORT process.

Please guide us in going ahead with the right approach.

This is not an antagonism, you can do a single instance installation by doing the import. Basically an "import" is a new installation with the export you've done before.
