Hello,
I have a db in a linux system which I want to export to a windows system. I think that I can shutdown the db and manually copy the data files, log files and the control files to a different location and then start the database. I am thinking of copying the files over the network to the windows system. I am not sure whether this will work. Is there any other way of doing this?
Thanks and Regards
Praveen Balla

>> i think if you want to export the data then both the platform is must be same
If you are talking about the Oracle export /import tool, then the platform can be anything. The sole purpose of exp/imp/expdp/impdp tools are to move the data around. The dump files created are oracle proprietary and OS independent.
