Examples of AutoUpgrade Workflows

To guide your upgrade, review the AutoUpgrade workflow example that matches your upgrade use case.

These examples are presented in a typical workflow sequence.

AutoUpgrade with Source and Target Database Homes on Same Server
When your Oracle Database source and target Oracle homes are located on the same physical server, and where both Oracle homes are up and available, use this example.
AutoUpgrade with Source and Target Database Homes on Different Servers
When AutoUpgrade where your Oracle Database source and target Oracle homes are located on different physical servers, use this example.

AutoUpgrade with Source and Target Database Homes on Same Server

When your Oracle Database source and target Oracle homes are located on the same physical server, and where both Oracle homes are up and available, use this example.

Context: source and target homes are on the same server.

To start the analysis, enter the following command.

java -jar autoupgrade.jar -config config.txt -mode analyze

The command produces a report that indicates any error conditions that the command finds. Review the error conditions. When relevant, customize the fixups that AutoUpgrade has created to address error conditions.

To start the deployment of the upgrade, enter the following command:

java -jar autoupgrade.jar -config config.txt -mode deploy

AutoUpgrade with Source and Target Database Homes on Different Servers

When AutoUpgrade where your Oracle Database source and target Oracle homes are located on different physical servers, use this example.

Context: Source and target Oracle homes are on different physical servers.

To start the analysis, enter the following command.

java -jar autoupgrade.jar -config config.txt -mode analyze

Because the source and target Oracle Database Oracle homes are on different servers, you run fixups for each server.

Run fixups on the source server:

java -jar autoupgrade.jar -config config.txt -mode fixups

Perform the relevant tasks to move the source Oracle Database from the source server to the target server. For example, use a technology such as Oracle Data Pump or Oracle Recovery Manager (RMAN) to copy database files from the source to the target server.
On the target server, start up the database in upgrade mode, and then run AutoUpgrade in upgrade mode:
```
java -jar autoupgrade.jar -config config.txt -mode upgrade
```
