Performing a 32 bit to 64 bit migration using the Transportable Database RMAN feature
This note describes the procedure used to perform a 32 bit to 64 bit conversion of an 11.2.0.3 database on the Linux platform.
The RMAN CONVERT DATABASE command is used to automate the movement of an entire database from one platform (the source platform) to another (the destination platform).
This is provided that the source and destination platforms are of the same endian format.
For example between Linux X86 32 bit and Linux X86 64 bit.
Note the following:

Hi All,
I would like to share something about ORACLE_SID registry parameter.
I had a chance to restore (RMAN) a database on a new Windows server. The restoration/recovery was completed and there was no issue in logging to the database from the server.
The only thing I had to do was to set the ORACLE_SID variable everytime using the statement "set ORACLE_SID=abcd". I will encounter the error "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error".

Proxy authentication has been around since release 9i, but it isn't widely used. It can be a very useful facility for giving certain users access to high privileges without having to give them any direct grants or roles, and avoids many of the problems of using shared accounts. It is of course fully audited.

database. This helps you address the most difficult security problems remaining
today: protecting against insider threats, meeting regulatory compliance
requirements, and enforcing separation of duty. It covers the following main topics:
