In V8 GA, the following cross platform restores were allowed (note that the image and the instance must both be V8):
AIX <=> SUN <=> HP <=> AIX64 <=> SUN64 <=> HP64
WIN <=> WIN64(IA64)
LINUX(x86) <=> LINUX64(IA64)
For FP3, LINUX(x86) <=> LINUXAMD64 was added.
For FP4 support for LINUX64(IA64) <=> LINUXAMD64 was added.
Support for HPIA, HPIA64, LINUX_PPC, LINUXPPC64, LINUX390, and LINUXZ64 has been added with the AIX block of platforms after FP4.
It should be noted that tablespace restores, restores from tablespace images and incremental restores are all blocked when doing cross platform restore.
Prior to V8, the only sort of cross platform restores that could be done were between HP and SUN. That is,
HP <=> SUN
HP64 <=> SUN64.
hope it helps |
