Convert database

Could someone please tell me what I am doing wrong? I am trying to migrate the corporate database from Multisim 9 to Multisim 10.
From the multisim 10 menu, I went to Tools -> Database -> Convert Database. I selected the source database (from multisim 9) and clicked start.
The conversion went pretty fast and I closed the screen, but when I tried to merge the converted database, multisim gave the error: "Not a valid password"
I performed the operation on the user database and got the same error as well.
Any ideas?
OS is Win Vista SP2, Multisim Power Pro v 9.0.155 and Mutisim Power Pro v 10.1
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I found what the problem was! It was the freaking User Access Control (UAC) of windows VISTA that was responsible for my headache
When I ran multisim 9 as an administrator (right-clicked on multisim icon and selected "run as administrator"), I only saw 5 components just like you did, but when I ran it without admin privileges I saw all 1411 components
So I ran multisim 9 without admin privileges and exported the all components to a temporary directory. I then reopened multisim with admin privilege and reimported the components back to my corporate database. After that, I was able to use the convert database tool in multisim 10 to import all the components.
Garret, I cannot thank you enough for the assistance provided. Thank you so much.

The same thing is working in the Oracle 9i but not in the Oracle 10G.
Can Anybody plz help me in this?

.

export ORACLE_SID=<SID>
rman target /cmdfile="C:\ORACLE~2\BACKUP\backup.ora"
it will connect to the default SID, there's no such thing as a default SID, what do you mean?
But what if there are more that one SID available & I
want to connect to SID other than the default SID.just specify the desired SID prior starting rman.
more over the same string is working with 9i but not
with 10G.maybe due to a bug?
to summarize, you have two options it you would like to start up the instance:
either you specify the SID prior starting rman and use os authentication
or
you register the instance statically and use oracle authentication.

Approach to converting database character set from Western European to Unicode

Hi All,
EBS:12.2.4 upgraded
O/S: Red Hat Linux
I am looking for the below information. If anyone could help provide would be great!
INFORMATION NEEDED: Approach to converting database character set from Western European to Unicode for source systems with large data exceptions
DETAIL: We are looking to convert Oracle EBS database character set from Western European to Unicode to support Kanji characters. Our scan results show
both “lossy (110K approx.)” and “truncation (26K approx.)” exceptions in the database which needs to be fixed before the database is converted to Unicode.
Oracle Support has suggested to fix all open and closed transactions in the source Production instance using forms and scripts.
We’re looking for information/creative approaches who have performed similar exercises without having to manipulate data in the source instance.
Any help in this regard would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks for yourn time!
Regards,

There are two aspects here:
1. Why do you have such large number of lossy characters? Is this data coming from some very old eBS release, i.e. from before the times of the Java applet interface to Oracle Forms? Have you analyzed the nature of this lossy data?
2. There is no easy way around truncation issues as you cannot modify eBS metadata (make columns wider). You must shorten or remove the data manually through the documented eBS interfaces. eBS does not support direct manipulation of data in the database due to complex consistency rules enforced by the application itself (e.g. forms).
Thanks,

Convert Database NULL Values to default

Hi Friends,
I have two doubts. Any help on this is appreciated -
1. Convert Database NULL Values to default / Convert Other NULL values to default ( from File Menu - Report Option ), can any one please tell that Default Values are the values from respective Database or Crystal Reports itself?
2. Can anybody please provide the site - link, document covering details of Crystal Reports performance optimization?
Thanks in advance !!
Regards,
Ashish B

Hi Ashish,
Here are the few tips to enhance the performance of Crystal Reports.
1. While you are using subreports, always try to use on demand subreport when appropriate.
2. If you are creating linked subreports, try to base the link on an indexed field in the subreport.
3. If you are linking subreports with formula fields, try to keep the formula field in the main report and use a database field in the subreport.
4. Try to create proper indexed field in database, so that the data access will be faster.
5. Donu2019t use multiple data sources in reports. CRYSTAL REPORTS allows this situation, but it degrades performance.
6. Try to create SQL expression fields. Since they are evaluated in database server side, so the performance can be enhanced.
7. Always use server side processing or server side grouping. To do so, choose Database | Perform Grouping On Server from the pull down menu.
8. Donu2019t use Crystal Reports formula languageu2019s built-in functions, such as ToText, in your selection criteria.
9. Donu2019t base record selection on formula fields.
There are a number of factors that affect the processing speed of reports in Crystal Reports. For more information, search for the document u2018Tips to Improving Report Processing Speedu2019 which may improve your reportu2019s performance.
Hope it helps!!

Move Data from Converted Database Objects Successfully Finish ?

I am using SQL Developer 3.2.20.09 try to migrate KSMMS database from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11g R2. After the migration process is done, the Captured Database Objects model, and Converted Database Objects model have been created in the Migration Projects Navigator panel on the left side, and the corresponding sql scripts has been generated in the project output directory. I run the sql scripts, it created all the tables, views, index and stored procedures in the oracle database, everything seems working perfectly. However when I try to Move Data (by right clicking Converted Database Objects) and try to move all the data from SQL Server to Oracle database, the Data moving process run less then 1 minute, and show me the result as Data Move successfully. I have about 1 GB data in the SQL Server database, it seems nothing has been moved into Oracle DB. Here are the detail structures of MS SQL Server Database which I am trying to migrate to Oracle:
The SQL Server Database name is KSMMS, under that database there are 9 users (azteca, cwweb, dbo, guest, plladmin, pw, pwadmin, tbills, wsdadmin). All my application objects (tables, views, indexes, procedures) are under azteca user, during the migration process, Converted Database Objects creates user azteca_KSMMS and dob_KSMMS, all my application objects have been created under azteca_KSMMS user schema. The generated .sql scripts actually can create all the objects under azteca_KSMMS schema, however when I try to Move Data, nothing has been moved into Oracle database. I opened an SR#3-6708733861 last Friday, it seems Oracle Support can't find what cause the problem during the Data Move process. Any help regarding my questions will be highly appreciated. Thanks.
Kevin

I changed Data Move Mode to Online and run the Data Move again. Same Results: Migration action have completed successfully. However no records have been moved into Oracle tables.
I am running SQL Developer under Windows 8 Operation system. There is no Oracle client software available for Windows 8, does that cause any problems?

RMAN convert Database

Hello,
1)What is transportable database?
2)By using RMAN CONVERT DATABASE, can we achieve the following tasks at one go?
-Database migration from Windows to Linux
-32-Bit Windows to 64-Bit Linux migration
3)Can I use RMAN CONVERT DATABASE between two different patchset levels i.e. windows(11.2.0.1) to Linux(11.2.0.2) ?

Hi,
1)What is transportable database?check here..

2)By using RMAN CONVERT DATABASE, can we achieve the following tasks at one go?OK, But you have to check before migration.
I think 32bit Windows and 64bit Linux are same endian(little), So, OK.

What i do wrong?When you say host mv... it is executing OS move command...
Did you check your current working directory 'pwd' when you started SQL*Plus ? You are moving file from /u01/oradata/DATABASE/ to ??

Yes, you could be right but mostly links.. like these
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/internationalization-localization.html
http://www.wowebmaster.com/mysql/mysql-character-set-change/
Try these two links and make sure the characterset file exist before you try alter database.
Do not forget reading the consequence of changing language for a database as it might cause data loss.

How to convert database in 3NF to Star schema

Hi
Can anyone help me out to convert the database in 3NF to Star schema so that it can be used for Business Intelligence.
Our Application will be populating the database in normal 3NF form which may be difficult for the intelligence to generate queries from it. From the documents given, i saw that only star schema containing dimensions table and fact table is simpler to generate reports. Is there any tool that would convert the schema from 3NF to star schema?
Regards
S. Kokila

Hi,
I do not know any tools that would do this for you. You can apply a certain logic to create your dimensions and facts, but decisions will have to be taken along the way.
You need to know the basis of database design for datawarehousing. A few good books and articles are available on the subject.
Bonne lecture!

Converting database from appleworks

Hello
I have been finding that appleworks no longer seems to function, so I have gradually been transfering my wordprocessing and spreadsheet documents to iWork. I now need to convert my appleworks database to another format, because, as I mentioned, Applework does not seem to function properly any more.
I know almost nothing about computers, but I cant get my head round the fact that neither do the people who produce software
what I am referring to is the childishly ludicrous situation whereby Apple have created iWork without a database application. - surely it could and should have been foreseen that this would eventually get Appleworks users into a very difficult situation i.e. they would have built databases which could not be readily converted to another format.
Perhaps I'm missing something, but wasn't it a bit daft for iWork to have wordprocessing and spreadsheet apps but no database?
Regards

You cannot open an Appleworks database in anything else (and I agree about iWork). You can export a database as tab or comma delimited text (of course you lose all formatting and any calculation fields) but obviously you need to use AW to do that.
However it should work perfectly well on Tiger or Leopard. There are steps you can take to get it to work; please see the second post in this thread:

How to convert databases into schemas

Hi
i have got 3 small size databases P1, P2 and P3 on 3 different servers.
I have got another database SUPER in a different server.
Now I want the 3 databases to incorporated into SUPER as schemas.
Thus after transfer, SUPER will have 3 additional schemas P1, P2, P3 with the
corresponding users and data.
Please reply.
Thanks.

Hi,
Assuming there is only one owner of all objects in each of the small databases, this is my suggestion.
1. export all tables of the in each of the small databases...
you will generate 3 *.dmp files for example:
p1.dmp,p2.dmp,p3.dmp
2. create 3 users in the SUPER database as P1,P2,P3
3. Import the three dump files into the SUPER database similar to the ff:
a. imp username/password@SUPER file=p1.dmp fromuser=p1_owner touser=P1
b. imp username/password@SUPER file=p2.dmp fromuser=p2_owner touser= P2
c. imp username/password@SUPER file=p3.dmp fromuser=p3_owner touser= P3
Hope this solves your problem..

Mike

Converting Database License

Hi,
I have been using a downloaded copy of Oracle 10g for development and testing purposes and I now want to use the same database in production environment. Can I use the same software and just upgrade the license to a double processor license? or do I need to get a completely "licensed" version of the database?
Thanks in advance.

You should only need to obtain appropriate licenses, assuming the version of the database you downloaded and installed is the same as the version you are licensing. If you installed the enterprise edition, and you want to license the standard edition, for example, you might need to do a fresh install.
