Issues with COMPATIBLE Initialization Parameter
Hello,
I was trying to transport a tablespace from one database (Prod_A) to another (Prod_B), both of which are running on Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3). I took metadata export and ftp'ed both export dump and datafiles to the destination database server. While trying to import into Prod_B, I received "ORA-00721: changes by release 10.2.0.3.0 cannot be used by release 10.2.0.0.0" error.
I cross checked version of both the databases by querying V$VERSION and found that both were on 10.2.0.3, but still Oracle complains about different versions. Then, I had a look at COMPATIBLE initialization parameter of both the databases. This parameter was set to "10.2.0.3" on Prod_A, but on Prod_B it was "10.2.0". I changed this parameter on Prod_B and bounced database. Everything went fine and I was able to import tablespace into Prod_B.
Following is the import log where import terminated unsuccessfully.
