Disclaimer |
This package shows an alternative migration strategy, which minimizes the
required downtime approximately by factor 4. However, it is not an approved
nor recommended migration path by Oracle (do they know about it?). So I hereby
explicitely state that you may use this on your own risk only. I was
able to test it on several databases successfully - which does not mean it
will run under all circumstances. I will take no responsibility whatever
for any damage, data loss, corruption or whatever may happen, even if this is
not expected.
