Question: I am using your instruction for
cloning
an Oracle database by copying the datafiles.
Can I use the
copy file method to clone an Oracle database on Linux machine to a
Windows server?
Answer: When copying a file between
platforms you need to ensure that the
Endian values match, big endian vs. little endian.
In your
copy example, the answer is YES. Windows and Linux x86 have the same
Endian.
Oracle RMAN also has a convert utility for changing
Endian values.
