What is involved to switch from enterprise to standard-one?

| We are looking at switching oracle licensing options from Enterprise to
the Standard-One.
Aside from licensing issues, does anybody have any information about
what is involved to accomplish this? Is it relatively straigthforard?
Thanks in advance,
-Dave

Other than doing a full down-grade of the binaries - and making sure you
are not using any of the Enterprise features that may break your
existing code?
And having to wait for months for Oracle to get your request completed?
and having to make the request many times while you hold the current
bill for payment - then because they take so long to give you the quote
that your current bill is now past due and they insist that you pay
their late fees because they couldn't do their job? (I have many, many
examples and could go but I will spare the NG those gory details...)

I went through this recently.
*Confirm this with an Oracle Sales representative*
There is no real licence downgrade. You just stop paying maintenance on
the Enterprise licence and take out new SEOne licences. This means that
you still have the Enterprise Licences (assuming you bought Perpetual),
but in order to get support for them if you decide to use them later you
will have to pay the re-instatement fees.
In terms of downgrading the software and database, the only supported
way is to install SEOne in a new Oracle home, create a new database,
export from the EE database and import into the SEOne database.
Not difficult, but potentially time-consuming and disruptive[1] if your
databases are large.
[1] Potentially *very* disruptive if it turns out you *are* using some
Enterprise features. Test thoroughly.

How do you migrate partitioned tables? Is exp-imp able to do the job?
Kind regards,

Partitioning is an Enterprise Edition feature, so you won't be able to
use them in Standard Edition One...

I know that. I was just wondering, in the context defined by the topic,=20
whether is it possible to migrate EE partitioned tables to SE1=20
non-partitioned tables (of course) using exp+imp.
Thank you. Kind regards,

Precreate tables and imp ignore=y will do it.
