Oracle 10g R2 Standard to Enterprise upgrade
Hello, I'm using Oracle Standard Edition and I want to upgrade to ENterprise, how do I do that without losing my database and current configuration? Is it possible?
I have tried installing Enterprise on top of Standard and I got a home compatibilities error during check. Not sure what to do now.
I'm using Windows XP Pro, Oracle 10g Release 2.
Thanks.

I meant the software, not the database.. I've initially installed a standard edition and found out later that some of the codes that the dev implemented requires enterprise edition. It'll still be 10g R2 so am not sure if I need to upgrade the database. Anyhow, I'll worry about the software upgrade first. Thanks.

hi.. i know this is long overdue.. thanks for the help!
Goto Start > Programs > Oracle_home > Configuration and Migration Tools > Database Upgrade Assistant.
Just to be on the safe side perform a full cold backup if you can shutdown the database or full hotbackup using RMAN before upgrade.
Good luck :-).
