Conversion of Oracle 8 Database to Oracle 9i Database

Hi,
Can anybody tell me the steps to be followed to transfer a database of Oracle8 into Oracle9i?
Thanx.

That is a big question. The best answer is that you should read the 9i Migration Guide documentation. Also, if you have MetaLink access, there is a "Top Articles" document that is very helpful.

How to convert Oracle database to Sql server Database

Hi All,
I have one database made in the Oracle 8i, i want to convert that database to Sql Server Database,
Can anyone please give me the step by step process to do this conversion.
Regards
Ramesh Jha

Try using the DTS (data transformation services) services of SQL Server 2000
DTS is based on an OLE DB architecture that allows you to copy and transform data from a variety of data sources. For example: Oracle directly, using native OLE DB providers.
Alternatively, you could follow the following broad steps for data migration (assuming you are retaining the same table structures in SQL Server, and that you are talking about SQL Server 2000).
1. Get the CREATE scripts corresponding to each Oracle table / view / index. These can be reverse engineered from the database using a tool.
2. Map Oracle datatypes to SQL server datatypes e.g: date maps to datetime/smalldatetime, numeric maps to one of int, bigint, smallint, etc depending on the range of values in the CREATE scripts.
3. Indexes in SQL Server are of two types: Clustered / non-clustered. There can only be one clustered index on each table.
4. Converting procedures and triggers will have to be line by line, since SQL Server uses a proprietary T-SQL instead of ORacle's PL/SQL
I have yet to see a really good tool to do this migration, but it is possible to write a PL/SQL procedure / Pro*C program to automate the script creation for creating tables in the SQL Server database.
For the actual data import into SQL Server, export the Oracle data table by table into flat files, and then use the import wizard of SQL Server enterprise manager

My Experiences re: Migrating SQL Server Database to Oracle

I am using SQL Developer EA4 for thsi conversion, best attempt yet.
I had numerous problems with this conversion.
1. The wizard asked me to specify the new Oracle database; instead it just ignored this information and created an Oracle database similarly named as the SQL Server database. I also noticed a file name "Migration.out" was produced; it contained errors such as:
Error starting at line 3 in command:
CREATE USER Emulation IDENTIFIED BY Emulation DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
Error at Command Line:3 Column:36
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges" and
Error starting at line 4 in command:
GRANT CREATE SESSION, RESOURCE, CREATE VIEW, CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW, CREATE SYNONYM,CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TO Emulation
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges" and
Error starting at line 7 in command:
CREATE USER dbo_COREv13 IDENTIFIED BY dbo_COREv13 DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
Error at Command Line:7 Column:38
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges" and
Error starting at line 8 in command:
GRANT CREATE SESSION, RESOURCE, CREATE VIEW, CREATE MATERIALIZED VIEW, CREATE SYNONYM TO dbo_COREv13
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges".
I followed all of the steps listed in the "Help" section re: Migrations but still ended up with these errors.
2. My schema consists of 1000+ tables; approximately 10 tables were NOT created. When I copied the SQL from Migration.sql making NO changes and pasted it into the new Oracle database it created without issues.
3. While the conversion is taking place, different objects (constraints, indexes, foreign keys, etc) are shown to be copied; their appears to be ordering of these items. Shouln't a dependancy tree be established, and object converted based on this?
4. Several tables, in my case about 250 tables did NOT get any data copied across. No reasons given.
5. A log of all activities should be produced for review and completeness.
6. I tried to use the "Migrate select tables" option but met with no success. Apparently, it makes an assumption that both the "source" and "target" databases wil be of the same type (ie both SQL Server or both Oracle); this does not make any sense to me since the point of the exercise is to migrate data from one database vendor to another. Obviously, different database vendors use differing datatypes for similar data (ie dates).
7. I noticed in the "Migration" sql that the "Connect" statements are not correct; they were missing the "instance name" portion.
8. Also, when I looked in the "MIGRATION" sql, I could not find any entries for the last step of the conversion - the movement of data from SQL Server to Oracle. Is this intentional or an oversight.
I dont want to appear negative on this Migration; I have used SQL Developer since it inception; in my opinion this is the best attempt to date.
Murray Sobol

Hi Murray,
Thanks for this feedback.
There is a lot of questions here, I think some of it boils down to misunderstandings, which we should clarify in the doc.
Hopefully Ill get a video of a migration online soon as well.
But here is a brief break down.
*1.*
"The wizard asked me to specify the new Oracle database; instead it just ignored this information and created an Oracle database similarly named as the SQL Server database."
So this relates to Step 7 of the Migration Wizard. Where you can select the target connection.
SQL Developer doesn't ignore the Target Connection you selected, It just uses it to connect to the target database , not the target schema.
SQL Developer generates a new target schema for the migrated objects. It standard approach is not to generate objects directly into an existing Schema.
The Target Connection is used to create all the migrated objects (including new Oracle Schemas) in your target oracle database. So you should choose an Oracle Target Connection which has enough privileges to create new Schemas and Objects.
But as you have found, it doesn't generate the migrate objects , like tables, ... , directly into your chosen Target Connection.
From the errors you encountered it doesn't sound like the Target Connection (and the underling Oracle Schema) doesn't have the privileges to create other Schemas.
If you use something like a connection to the SYSTEM schema on your target database, it should run OK.
It wont create any objects in SYSTEM, rather it will use SYSTEM privileges to create a new schema (ex: dbo_Northwind) and populate it.
You don't have to use SYSTEM, but you do need a schema with enough privileges to create other schemas.
That is the straight forward way. But if you really need to generate into an existing schema the following steps can be taken.
a)rename the schema under the Converted Database Objects
b)Right click "Converted Databases Objects" and choose generate. it will kick off the Migration Wizard in the correct place
*2.*
My schema consists of 1000+ tables; approximately 10 tables were NOT created. When I copied the SQL from Migration.sql making NO changes and pasted it into the new Oracle database it created without issues.
When you say Migration.sql , is the entire generation file , which can be found in your <outputspecified>/generated/<projectname.modelname>.sql ?
When your say "pasted it into the new Oracle database" , are you running it in SQL Developers SQL Worksheet using the Target Connection.
Basically your migration is all out of shape once the target Schemas are not created. So the above issues (insufficient privileges) has to be resolved first.
Please post back if it is still an issue.
*3.*
While the conversion is taking place, different objects (constraints, indexes, foreign keys, etc) are shown to be copied; their appears to be ordering of these items. Shouln't a dependancy tree be established, and object converted based on this?
Objects are converted in a particular order and their dependencies are persisted so that they can be generated in the correct order.
Are you seeing an issue?
*4.*
Several tables, in my case about 250 tables did NOT get any data copied across. No reasons given.
I'm surprised any tables were populated with data due to the target schema not being created.
The online data move is pretty simple and it does not report or recover very well from issues.
If you are having difficulties once item 1. is resolved, please post an example of the source table and I will give it a go.
For better control of the data move with much more powerful tweaking, error handling, reporting and performance try the offline data move.
SQL Developer can created a suite of scripts which use SQL Servers BCP tool to dump out the data to dat files, and Oracle SQL*Loader tool to insert the data in the dat file into Oracle.
*5.*
A log of all activities should be produced for review and completeness.
The output/generated/<projectname.modelname>.out provides the output of running the generation script.
The migration reports http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2010/11/migration-reports-30.html outline what happens during the migration.
Apart from online data move issues, is there any other data missing?
*6.*
I tried to use the "Migrate select tables" option but met with no success. Apparently, it makes an assumption that both the "source" and "target" databases wil be of the same type (ie both SQL Server or both Oracle); this does not make any sense to me since the point of the exercise is to migrate data from one database vendor to another. Obviously, different database vendors use differing datatypes for similar data (ie dates).
Do you mean "Copy To Oracle" ? This option is intended to migrate tables from non Oracle databases like SQL Server to Oracle.
Can you give more details on what issue you are seeing.
*7.*
I noticed in the "Migration" sql that the "Connect" statements are not correct; they were missing the "instance name" portion.
The generation script is meant to be run using SQL Developers SQL Worksheet. I think you only get this "instance name" issue if running from SQL*Plus.
Can you confirm
8. Also, when I looked in the "MIGRATION" sql, I could not find any entries for the last step of the conversion - the movement of data from SQL Server to Oracle. Is this intentional or an oversight.
The online data move is performed separately from creating the objects. It is not script based, it uses JDBC to pump the data from the source database to the target database.
In summary , I would
a) Create a connection to your Target database using your SYSTEM schema
b) Right click on your "Converted Database Objects" and choose "Generate Target"
c) Choose your new "System" connection as the Target Connection
d) Follow the Migration Wizard to the end.
You will end up with a new target Schema and the migrated objects in it.

Migrate peoplesoft sybase HRMS database to oracle 11g

Hi All,
I want to know if I can migrate a sybase peoplesoft HRMS database to oracle 11g using sql developer 3.0. I am trying to do this following the steps given in the link below but it is taking for ever for the convert step, I could see the messae saying building converted model.
http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/sqldev/r30/SybaseMigration/SybaseMigration.htm
The sybase database is 55GB and the version is 12. There are around 20,000 tables in Sybase Database.
Please advise, if this is possible with SQL Developer??
If yes, how long this process might take(for each step in the above link), based on any past convertions of the same size database??
If this is not feasable with SQL Developer because of the complexity of the database, are there any other tools we can look into which might be faster/better than SQL Developer.
Please advise.
Thanks..

Hi Dermot, Tanks for the reply.
"Do you know the number of views and procedures captured". Below is the ouput from some of the tables in migration repositary.
count from md_derivatives table, grouped by derived_type.
MD_CATALOGS     1
MD_USERS     1
MD_CONNECTIONS     2
MD_SCHEMAS     4

Count from md_views table 34316
Count from md_additional_properties table 110322
"Is there a chance the convert phase has hung, or does it refresh ever so ofter with details of another object being "migrated"?"
It is not hung. I can see the message 'Translating views' right now, and the View names change often but not fast roughly every minute. When I checked for what the session is doing, I could see the below two sql statements.
SELECT PROP_KEY, VALUE, PROPERTY_ORDER, CONNECTION_ID_FK
FROM MD_ADDITIONAL_PROPERTIES
WHERE REF_ID_FK = :1
ORDER BY PROPERTY_ORDER;
SELECT ID
FROM MD_TABLES -- Some times this is MD_VIEWS
WHERE SCHEMA_ID_FK = :1 AND UPPER (TABLE_NAME) = UPPER (:2)
"What is the current "Being migrated" information?"
Translating View xxx.
"Does the tablespaces your migration repository schema is based on have sufficient space?"
Yes, Since there is no data at this point, it is all done in one table space which is set to grow UNLIMITED. At this point the size of the table space is a little over 500M.
"Is SQL Developer being run on the same machine as the Oracle database containing the migration repository? (conversion can be alot quicker for procedure,view,trigger conversion if SQL Developer is on the same machine as the repository)"
NO. SQL developer is running on my machine but the migration repositary is in the database which is on HP-UX box. Below are some of the details of the server. Also, since the database in on HP-UX, I couldn't find SQL developer for UNIX. I also read in the release note of 3.0 that it is not supported with UNIX, Is that right? else is there a way I can install SQL developer on the Unix server and that might improve the performance!, if yes, please guide me with the steps to do this installation.

Migrating from Pick Database to Oracle 8i database

We are investigating the possiblility of exporting the entire contents of a pick database into an Oracle 8i database. Can you suggest any resources needed or utilities needed to perform this?
thanks in advance
warren

If Access2000 allows you save the database as an access97 database then you can use the Oracle Migration Workbench to do the conversion. Sorry, Im not the Access expert so I can't say for sure whether the save as 97 option is shipped with 2000. I'll look into it and post a definitive answer tomorrow.

How to migrate Postgres database to Oracle?

Hi Experts,
Please guide me to migrate Postgres database to Oracle. Postgres database version is 9.2 and it is in Linux server.
can I use Oracle SQL Developer migration tool for migrating from Postgres to Oracle?
Please give valuable suggestions.
Regrads,
Suresh.

As per earlier threads, Oracle SQL developer doesn't support Postgres to Oracle migration hence you need to go for some other tool/approach as listed in my second reply.
such cross RDBMS migrations are done in 2 phases.
Phase 1- Code migration
Phase 2- data migration
In phase 1, you work on DDL conversion for all objects like- tables, views, triggers, procedures, packages, Mviews, in-built function conversion etc. This becomes complex when there is lot of code present since in many cases, you have to re-write the code to make it work in target RDBMS.
in phase 2, it is about migration of table data from source to target. It can be done by simply dumping the table data in CSV format and then using SQL loader kind of tool to load it.
You can also use replication tools like- Oracle Golden Gate and other tools available in market.

Creating a new database in Oracle Database 10g...

I have downloaded a copy of Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from Oracle's website. I am using Windows XP. I am trying to create an Oracle database that I can connect to from Access 2003 via ODBC.
1. How do I create a new database? I can see options to create tables, views, etc. but not a database.
2. I have created a System DSN connection in the ODBC Data Source Administrator for the Oracle ODBC driver. Once I create a database in Oracle, how do I actually establish a connection to it from Access? The ODBC code to connect is there, but when I run it, I get an error.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

1. How do I create a new database? I can see options to create tables, views, etc. but not a database.If you can see those options then you are already connected to the database. You probably want to create a user, not a database (are you by chance coming from SQL Server?)
driver={OracleDriver};Dbq=TESTDBQ;Uid=Administrator;Pwd=;You would replace "Administrator" with the name of the user you created in the database.

Index does not exist in database system ORACLE??????

Hi Experts,
I created a Secondary Index in DEV, its fine and the message is,
Index KNA1~Z01 exists in database system ORACLE
I moved it to TEST and there I got the message is like,
Index does not exist in database system ORACLE
So,
1 - Wht I hv to do now? Shuld I see BASIS people?
2- Why its happened like that? Coz of not enough space?
ThanQ.

thanq sudheer,
I got the return code as 4, so Can I go for creation of new request and there by moving to test?
1 - Anyways, so, after Activating Seconadyr Index, Shuld I come back and Do I need to activate the Table also?
or
2- Just activating the index is enough?
thanq.

Can't mount database using Oracle 8i on linux

I am not able to mount an Oracle database.
I am new to Oracle and am working on an Oracle8i installation on an
Intel Linux Suse 6.3 platform. I am using only one harddrive and am
not using the 4 mount points as mentioned for efficiecy purposes in
the Oracle documentation..I am using the installation cd from Oracle8i
for Linux Starter Kit by Oracle Press. If anyone has this book they
can refer to pages 41-44 for the examples I followed.
As sysdba in sqplplus using the STARTUP command I can not Mount the
database -step 2 of the 3 stage process (Start, Mount and Open the
database) of opening an Oracle database.
I show the errors I encountered when I did the first 2 of the 3 steps
in the step-by-step mode (STARTUP NOMOUNT pfile=, ALTER DATABASE
MOUNT) in the sqlplus session and alert log respectively with startup
nomount and alter database mount for this sqlplus session.
Additionally I show the init.ora file lines referring to control file
which seem to be referred to by the sqlplus error messages and the
alert.log file. Perhaps some can give me some advice as what I can try
to fix this problem.
At the end of this e-mail I added several questions I had in regard to the control
files. Any help is appreciated.
Well, here are the sqlplus session results and its alert.log file:

init.ora control files
# define two control files by default
control_files = (ora_control1, ora_control2)
Here are my control file questions:
I need to know several points:
1) What are control files susposed to
contain and how would I recognize them?
I used the
unix find /usr/oracle \*ctl* -print
command to locate files with a ctl extension.
This resulted in about a dozen such files in
different directories as shown below:
./bin/lsnrctl
./bin/extractlib
./bin/agtctl
./bin/oidctl
./bin/lsnrctl0
./bin/agtctlO

2) On page 100 in the book Oracle 8i A Beginners's
by Oracle Press mention is made of a
CREATE CONTROLFILE command that can under
circumstances be used to re-create a control-file.
but that is all that is said about it. Perhaps
you might know something more about it.
3) Would you recommend any good text for
Oracle DBA's, especially for the problem of the sort
that I am encountering?

Hi ()
My problem is accessing the database with sqlplus system/manager @oralin, on page 55 of the Linux starter kit. Do you notice the space here, between system/manager.. and.. @oralin. I think it needs to be there.
Is your database named Chestnut?
And for Startup, why are you using init.ora? the book mentions initoralin.ora on page 43.
Your configurations are different than recommended in the book. I'm not sure if any of this helps, but maybe you can help me. When I try sqlplus system/manager @oralin, the response is: can't connect to oralin.sql.
According to the book, I need to use @oralin at the end of the command in order to see if I have properly configured the server for MTS, a multithreaded server.
Any ideas? I hope I can help further.

Error not send data a database of oracle please

I cannot send data from a variable a the database of oracle.
variables they are = unot,dost,trest but it does not recognize its values......
it does not insert anything in the fields of the data base
this code:
con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,"ora1", "oracle");
stmt = con.createStatement();
String uprs = "insert into anexo (cod_ane,codigo,desc_anexo)
values(" + unot + "," + dost + "," + trest +")";
stmt.executeUpdate(uprs);
this error:
SQLException: ORA-00936: missing expression

Are they text fields? Try surrounding them with quotes:
String uprs = "insert into anexo (cod_ane,codigo,desc_anexo)
values('" + unot + "','" + dost + "','" + trest +"')";Try displaying uprs before the executeUpdate() and make sure it's really valid SQL.

HELP: Problem creating a new database in Oracle 9i

I am having difficulty in creating a new database in Oracle 9i, on Windows 2000. I would be obliged if somebody can go through the posting below and guide me as to what mistake I am making or what is the source of the problem:
I reproduce the steps taken by me.
I have decide the database to be called Mydb. I have made the following directories:
-- d:\mydb
-- d:\mydb\data
-- d:\mydb\control
-- d:\mydb\log
-- d:\mydb\bdump
-- d:\mydb\cdump
-- d:\mydb\udump
-- d:\mydb\archive
-- d:\mydb\pfile
-- d:\mydb\scripts
-- d:\mydb\exp
I copied the initoracle.ora file to d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora, and made the following changes to it:
-- db_name = mydb
-- instance_name = mydb
-- control_files = ("d:\mydb\control\control01.ctl")
-- background_dump_dest = d:\mydb\bdump
-- core_dump_dest = d:\mydb\cdump
-- user_dump_dest = d:\mydb\udump
-- remote_login_passwordfile = exclusive
Also, I created a text file called d:\Oracle\Ora90\DATABASE\initmydb.ora with the following contents:
ifile=d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora
At DOS prompt, I run the following command:
set oracle_sid=mydb
I run the ORAPWD utility to create internal password file at the command prompt.
d:
cd \oracle\ora90\database
orapwd file=pwdmydb.ora password=panther entries=25
I create a Windows service for the database as follows:
oradim -new -sid mydb -startmode a -pfile d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora
I get connected:
sqlplusw /nolog
connect sys/change_on_install as sysdba
startup nomount # pfile=d:\mydb\pfile\initmydb.ora
create database mydb

Now I get the following error:
create database mydb
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-01092: ORACLE instance terminated. Disconnection forced
The data files, control file, redo log files are all created. But the above error comes, and I am unable to start the database. What is the reason?
Thanks in anticipation.
PS

Hi DENIS,
I have executed the following commands (which are in a script file),
1. sqlplus /nolog
2. connect sys/change_on_install as sysdba
3. create database ...
4. ...
When I execute the 3rd command, I get an error message as "ORACLE TERMINATED FORCED" and it will end the session. So when the next set of commands in the script are executed, I got the error saying "DATABASE NOT OPEN".
How to rectify this problem.
Thanks in advance,
Kiran
