FAQ on using Transportable Tablespace

Q1: Can I move/migrate to both a different RDBMS version and OS platform at the same time?

Yes; must be 10g or higher to move across OS platforms; charactersets must be the same regardless of version.

See "Limitations on Transportable Use" in Document 371556.1 How to move tablespaces across platforms using Transportable Tablespaces with RMAN


Q2: Do I have to convert the datafiles?

Yes, if the endianness is different.  If the endianness is not different and no undo is in any of the tablespaces being transported, then the convert step is not needed. 

Document 243304.1 10g : Transportable Tablespaces Across Different Platforms confirms the answer.

Q3: Can I use TTS with ASM?

Yes, with RMAN, ASM files can be moved.

See "Transportable tablespace EXP/IMP of ASM files" in Document 371556.1 How to move tablespaces across platforms using Transportable Tablespaces with RMAN


Q4: Can I move raw files?

Yes, with RMAN.

See "Transportable tablespace EXP/IMP of ASM files" in Document 371556.1 How to move tablespaces across platforms using Transportable Tablespaces with RMAN

Q5: Can I transport just a single partition?

Yes.
See Document 731559.1 How to move or transport table partition using Transportable Table Space (TTS)?

Q6: Is there a size limitation?

No, except for a couple of size-related bugs, one which is a potential-corruption bug in < 11g.  Please see note for description and patch information.

What is Tensor Parallelism and relationship between Buffer and GPU

  Tensor Parallelism in GPU Tensor parallelism is a technique used to distribute the computation of large tensor operations across multiple GPUs or multiple cores within a GPU .   It is an essential method for improving the performance and scalability of deep learning models, particularly when dealing with very large models that cannot fit into the memory of a single GPU. Key Concepts Tensor Operations : Tensors are multidimensional arrays used extensively in deep learning. Common tensor operations include matrix multiplication, convolution, and element-wise operations. Parallelism : Parallelism involves dividing a task into smaller sub-tasks that can be executed simultaneously. This approach leverages the parallel processing capabilities of GPUs to speed up computations. How Tensor Parallelism Works Splitting Tensors : The core idea of tensor parallelism is to split large tensors into smaller chunks that can be processed in parallel. Each chunk is assigned to a different GP...

What's replicated, what's not?

Logged operations are replicated. These include, but are not limited to: DDL DML Create/alter table space Create/alter storage group Create/alter buffer pool XML data. Logged LOBs Not logged operations are not replicated. These include, but are not limited to: Database configuration parameters (this allows primary and standby databases to be configured differently). "Not logged initially" tables Not logged LOBs UDF (User Defined Function) libraries. UDF DDL is replicated. But the libraries used by UDF (such as C or Java libraries)  are not replicated, because they are not stored in the database. Users must manually copy the libraries to the standby. Note: You can use database configuration parameter  BLOCKNONLOGGED  to block not logged operations on the primary.
