Description

Upgrades and Migrations
This month's session started with a half hour about fallback strategies: what to do if you run into a problem during the upgrade, compared with options for fallback after an upgrade.

Our Q&A segment (33:10) then covered topics such as comparing DBUA vs command-line upgrade, using RMAN to restore an earlier version database into a later version environment, and quite a discussion about patching.
