8. Introduction:
The purpose of this document is to provide a step-by-step procedure
for upgrading Oracle Database 12c to Oracle Database 19c. The
upgrade process involves several tasks, including pre-upgrade tasks,
upgrade planning, performing the upgrade, and post-upgrade tasks.
9. Pre-Upgrade Tasks:
Before starting the upgrade process, it is important to perform the
following tasks:
 Take a full backup of all Oracle database files, including data files,
control files, and redo log files.
 Review the Oracle Database 19c documentation and release notes for
any specific requirements or considerations.
 Verify that the hardware and operating system meet the minimum
requirements for Oracle Database 19c.
 Ensure that your existing Oracle Database 12c is at the latest available
patch level.
 Consider using Oracle's Database Pre-Upgrade Information Tool
(DBUPGDIAG) to identify any potential issues or conflicts.
3. Upgrade Planning:
4. Review the Oracle Database 19c documentation for the upgrade
paths and supported configurations.
5. Identify any deprecated features or changes in behavior between
Oracle 12c and Oracle 19c.
6. Develop an upgrade plan, including a timeline, resource allocation,
and any necessary downtime.
7. Performing the Upgrade:
8. Download the Oracle Database 19c software from the Oracle
Technology Network (OTN) or Oracle Cloud.
9. Extract the downloaded software and run the Oracle Universal
Installer (OUI) to begin the upgrade process.
10.Follow the OUI wizard to select the desired upgrade options, such as
the database edition, installation location, and upgrade type (in-place
or new Oracle home).
11.Provide the necessary credentials and specify the source Oracle home
(Oracle 12c) and the target Oracle home (Oracle 19c).
12.The OUI will perform prerequisite checks and prompt you to resolve
any identified issues before proceeding with the upgrade.
13.Once the prerequisites are met, the OUI will initiate the upgrade
process, which may take some time to complete.
14.Monitor the upgrade progress and review the OUI logs for any errors
or warnings.
15.After the upgrade is complete, the OUI will prompt you to run the
Database Upgrade Assistant (DBUA) to perform post-upgrade tasks.
16.Post-Upgrade Tasks:
17.Run the DBUA to complete the post-upgrade tasks, such as
upgrading the database dictionary, recompiling invalid objects, and
gathering optimizer statistics.
18.Review the DBUA logs for any issues or warnings and address them
accordingly.
19.Verify the upgraded database by performing functional and
performance testing.
20.Update any configuration files, scripts, or applications that reference
the database to ensure compatibility with Oracle 19c.
21.Consider implementing the new features and enhancements available
in Oracle 19c, based on your specific requirements.
22.Monitor the upgraded database for any performance or stability
issues and address them as necessary.
23.Conclusion:
Upgrading from Oracle Database 12c to Oracle Database 19c requires
careful planning and execution. By following the steps outlined in this
document, you should be able to successfully upgrade your Oracle
database while minimizing potential disruptions. Remember to
consult the official Oracle documentation and seek assistance from
Oracle support if needed.
