QUESTION POSED ON: 08 October 2009
I have Oracle 8i Release 8.1.6.0.0 enterprise 64 bit. The database size is quite small, say 100GB.

Now we need to migrate to Oracle 10g R2. I have the 8i full dump taken using Oracle 8i. The new Oracle will be installed on Windows 2008 server x64 bit OS and we have Oracle 10gR2 standards 64 bit. I have not yet installed Oracle in the new server. Is there a link on step by step instruction to doing this migration from 8i to 10g you can give me?
