Use this workflow if you are going to install the new Oracle server on the same machine as the previous Oracle server installation.

  1. Using the Oracle Database Upgrade Assistant, choose the instance that you want to upgrade.

  2. Select the sys account for the instance.

  3. Accept the values on each page of the wizard, other than on Page 2, where you should select the following options:

    • Move Database Files during Upgrade.

    • For the storage mechanism, choose File System.

  4. After installing SmartPlant Instrumentation 2016, use the Smart Upgrade (Admin) to update your database to SmartPlant Instrumentation 2016.

  5. If you upgraded from a non-Unicode database, create a new Oracle Unicode instance and initialize domains from the upgraded database to this new instance.

Some scenarios require that you initialize new domains using the upgraded domains as a source.  You need to familiarize yourself with the domain initialization prerequisites and procedures pertinent to your database platform.  For details, see the Administration User's Guide, Domain Initialization, Backup and Deletion, Domain Initialization.

In scenarios that involve domain initialization using another domain as a source, you lose the source audit trail data.  Therefore, before implementing such a scenario, we recommend that you back up the existing audit trail data.  For details, see the Administration User's Guide, Domain Initialization, Backup and Deletion, Backing up Files Containing Audit Trail Data.
