Introduction 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

This note is a purely a list of the scripts to run moving between

Oracle 8 versions only. It is intended to be a quick reference

guide to script names only.

It is important to read the current Oracle8 Server Migration Guide.

Also, further important information is available in README.DOC and

READMEMIG.DOC files supplied with the Oracle release that you wish to

upgrade to. READMEMIG.DOC is not present for an Oracle 8i installation,

only Oracle 8 versions.

Important

~~~~~~~~~

Before upgrading or changing <Parameter:COMPATIBLE> it is advisable to:

o Make sure there are no PENDING transactions;

o Shut down the database cleanly;

o Take a full cold backup;

8.0.3 8.0.4 CAT8004.SQL

8.0.3 8.0.6 u0800030.SQL

8.0.3 8.1.5 u0800030.SQL ** See #1 below

8.0.3 8.1.6 u0800030.SQL ** See #1 below

8.0.3 8.1.7 u0800030.SQL

8.0.4 8.0.5 u0800040.SQL

8.0.4 8.0.6 u0800040.SQL

8.0.4 8.1.5 u0800040.SQL

8.0.4 8.1.6 u0800040.SQL

8.0.5 8.0.6 u0800050.SQL

8.0.5 8.1.5 u0800050.SQL

8.0.5 8.1.6 u0800050.SQL

8.0.5 8.1.7 u0800050.SQL

8.0.6 8.1.5 u0800050.SQL ** See #2 below

8.0.6 8.1.6 u0800060.SQL

8.0.6 8.1.7 u0800060.SQL

8.1.5 8.1.6 u0801050.SQL ** See #3 below

8.1.5 8.1.7 u0801050.SQL

8.1.6 8.1.7 u0801060.SQL

#1 On AIX upgrade to a higher 8.0 release and then upgrade to 8.1.5

Eg: Upgrade to 8.0.5 then to 8.1.5 (see Bug:1051830)

#2 This is not a typing error.

8.1.5 has no u0800060.SQL script. You can use u0800050.SQL instead.

#3 This upgrade script will remove the 8.1.5 or 8.1.6 Java system classes

automatically. In order to upgrade the system classes, you must run

$ORACLE_HOME/javavm/install/jvmu815.sql or

$ORACLE_HOME/javavm/install/jvmu816.sql manually after the rest of the

upgrade has been completed. This can take a long time....

Catalog scripts to run after the upgrade scripts

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

CATALOG.SQL and CATPROC.SQL are run by the uXXXXXXX.sql scripts.

However, you may need to run additional scripts depending on what

options are installed.

Eg:

CATPARR.SQL (only run if the Parallel Server option is installed)

CATREP.SQL (only run if the Replication option is installed)

UTLRP.sql This compiles INVALID packages and is included with

Oracle 8.0.5 onwards. It is advisable to run this

as the last script after upgrading.

Note

~~~~

You MUST run CATALOG, CATPROC as INTERNAL or SYS, NOT SYSTEM.

Also, if you have installed additional packages or views the scripts for these

should also be run after to upgrade.

Eg: DBMSPOOL.SQL, CATPERF.SQL etc..
