Hi,

I have two windows 2003 server 64bits hosts.
Unintentionally we installed a 32bits oracle 10.2.0.3 on one of the hosts and configured the databases. Now the databases are running for a while and we noticed the mistake.

I already installed the oracle 64 bit software on the new host and I would like to use rman duplicate option to clone the databases to the new host.

Should I use rman convert database to move the database to the new host or will rman duplicate do. I know the platforms are the same endian format but the database software on the first host is 32bit.

Anybody did this before?

I tried using the duplicate command but got an error after the database was openend but the database seems to function fine (I'm able to query it) This is the error message I get within rman after the database is openend.

run {
allocate auxiliary channel dupdb1 type disk;
set until sequence 270 thread 1;
duplicate target database to DRENTHE NOFILENAMECHECK
logfile
GROUP 1 ('D:\oracle\oradata\DRENTHE\redo111.log','D:\oracle\oradata\DRENTHE\redo112.log'
) size 50M reuse,
GROUP 2 ('D:\oracle\oradata\DRENTHE\redo121.log','D:\oracle\oradata\DRENTHE\redo122.log'
) size 50M reuse,
GROUP 3 ('D:\oracle\oradata\DRENTHE\redo131.log','D:\oracle\oradata\DRENTHE\redo132.log'
) size 50M reuse;
}

Thanks, this document will help me I think.

Maybe you can help me a bit further.
Follow Oracle certification matrix 32bit Oracle is not supported on 64bit Windows.

But when I read the document on metalink it states:
<quote>
If you want to change your hardware wordsize, then you should be able to switch from 32-bit hardware to 64-bit hardware and still use your existing 32-bit Oracle software without encountering any problems, except on Linux systems (32-bit Oracle on 64-bit Linux is not supported).
</quote>
Does this mean when I run my 32bits oracle on windows 64bit with 64bit hardware or does it say your 32bit windows with your 32bit oracle runs on 64bit hardware.

Dit you do this before?

Martin
