Hi,

thanks for the feedback.

Basically, you will migrate your db using rman  (supposing all EBS requirements and RDBMS requirements are already met on your new Linux Server -- like rpms, like Database examples installation and etc..)

You will then migrate your apps tier except the techstack. -- You will install the techstack using the Linux techstack installer.

However, I see that you need an application upgrade + db upgrade during this migration.
These needs make the process highly complex.
EBS application upgrade is a big thing.
Db upgrade is also a big thing.
In addition, you have custom codes and you are migrating from Windows to Linux.

In this case, you better split this work in to phases.
First you migrate your db to linux.
Then upgrade your db
Then migrate your apps tier to linux (take care of the customizations in this phase, as well..)
And lastly upgrade your EBS (a big work)

If you need more questions, please ask them clearly. enumerate them and please be specific. (ask specific questions)
