Upgrade Oracle Database From 11g To 12c Using The RMAN Backup

Upgrade Oracle database from 11g to
12c using the RMAN Backup

Description:-
In this article we are going to see upgrade Oracle database from the version
11g to the version 12c using the RMAN
Environment Detail’s
High Level Steps:-

1. Oracle Database 11.2.0.3 Rman Full Backup
2. Oracle Database 12c Restore
3. Alter database open
4. Upgrade Database
Let’s start the Demo:-
1. Oracle Database 11.2.0.3 Rman Full Backup
Step1:- Verify the Database name and archive log is enabled on database
11g.
[oracle@gg-11 ~]$ export ORACLE_SID=oradbwr
[oracle@gg-11 ~]$ sqlplus ‘/as sysdba’

Step2:-Testing After Upgrade to 12c

SQL> create table chennai (name varchar(10));
Table created.
SQL> insert into chennai values(‘HARI’);

1 row created.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
Step3:-Going to take 11g database Full backup using rman
