Converting Informix data to Oracle 10g

Hi,
We are planning to convert data on Informix 5.x based legacy system over to Oracle 10g.
Wondering if anyone would like to share some light on this process, experience, use of Oracle or Other tools..
Regards,
Subhash

Are you looking to convert your data alone or do you wish to maintain the structure of the your legacy system? If you wish to retain the structure of your legacy system then something like like the oracle workbench may be what you are looking for. If you are just trying to convert your data from one database application to another then you just need an analyst map out your conversion needs and a good conversion programmer to convert the data.

Migration using data pump Oracle 10g - Oracle 11g

HI all,
1)
Right now I`m using Oracle 11g. I have a plan to import data from Oracle 10g. I would like to know if its possible to import data which was exported by datapump on Oracle 10g ?
Should I convert somehow expdp output from Oracle 10g to Oracle 11g format ?
2)
Next question is. If I will use expdp to create dump of complete database. May I use *.dmp to import selected users ? Or only full database can be restored ?

Yes, you can import 10g dump into an 11g database.
Maybe you should take some time and read the section on datapump in the fine Oracle® [Database Utilities|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28319/dp_import.htm#i1007324] manual.

Problem in importing data in oracle 10g from 9i backup

Hi ,
Am trying to import data in oracle 10g..but it does not importing constraints, and stop doing anything by the msg.
About to enable constraints.....
after this msg it does not work.
plz help,
Regards,
Neha

Hi Neha,
You have a lot of options. I'll supose you can test first, and you're using an export file.
First forget about the data, think in your database structure. So you can do this:
exp userid=... file=exp_norows.dmp full=y rows=n statistics=none
Now you have the structure of your database. Create the database, in 10g, empty, check you have all filesystem, etc. for you new datafiles. And do the import with parameter ignore=y, you'll see a lot off errors on SYSTEM schema, don't worry about it.
Now you have the structure of you database in 10g. You can take a look in the import log file, looking for some possible errors come from your schemas. so check the objects, and check the schemas.
Bear in mind things like CONNECT role in 9i it's different in 10g, you can't create db_links in 10g with "IDENTIFIED BY VALUES" because you'll get an ORA-00600, etc.
Well, fix all problems on source database (9i) and repeate this procedure until you don't recieve any more errors (not a SYSTEM schema errors).
When you have everything solved, you can try to import the data.
I hope, this method can help you. If you have any problem do not hesitate to ask me.

How to migrate MS SQL Server OLAP data to Oracle 10g OLAP

Hi,
Anyone has any idea on whether migration workbench can migrate my MS SQL Server OLAP data to Oracle 10g (with OLAP option) ?
Best Regards,
Ian Ho

Ian,
What exactly do you mean by SQL*Server OLAP ? Is it just a 'normal' SQL*Server database which is used for an OLAP application ?
The migration workbench migrates schema objects, triggers, and stored procedures and is not concerned with the application that uses those objects.
And the same with the Oracle OLAP database. Once the data etc has been moved into the database you can then use it for whichever application you want.
If you have concerns apart from moving the actual data then please give us more details.
Regards,
Mike

There are several ways, such as ODBC or migration workbench, which is also mentioned in the current article on sqldeveloper on OTN, here's the link. If you use this forum's search function, you should find several threads regarding this topic.

Tool for Viewing 3D data in Oracle 10g

Hi,
I had uploaded the 3D DGN format Data from FME Oracle Suite to Oracle 10g database.
the following tables were created
TESTASH_SDODIM TABLE
TESTASH_SDOLAYER TABLE
TESTASH_SDOGEOM TABLE
TESTASH_SDOINDEX TABLE
TESTASH TABLE
When we are trying to browse the data using AutoCAD of any other viewer, we are unable to find this table in that particular user. Whereas if we run a sql command and run a sql query we are able to get the record count.
Can you suggest something to view this data.
Thanks and Regards
Ashish Dhawan

Ok.. I'd bet then that there are no entries in USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA AKA MDSYS.SDO_GEOM_METADATA_TABLE. FME view needs to find an entry in there to show you it in the dialog so you can pick the table. The same holds true for views of tables, there needs to be an entry, although I find it somewhat ironic that it then goes on to not know what projection the data is in.
Also, the viewer will pick the first SDO_GEOMETRY column it finds. So if you have more than one, you will then need to make a view for just that column.
Anyway, add an entry into the table, and you should be good to go.

Hi,
I have oracle 10g database installed in 2 servers machines. One has the backup datas from other.
I would like to import the latest datas from one to other database.
I don't want to import all the entire database, only the information from 2 weeks ago.
Best regardsWell, as alluded to earlier, first you have to be able to identify that data. There is nothing inherent in Oracle to do so. At least not after the fact. Is there any column in the table(s) that could be used to identify the data you need? If one database is a backup of the other, why would you NOT want to back up the entire 'source' database? A little more information about the business problem you are trying to solve might lead to some creative solutions.

Retrieval of xmltype data from oracle 10g to java

Hi
Right now we are facing an issue on xmltype retrieval from oracle 10g to java.
I used xmltype column.getClobval() to get the xml content, but unable to do the parse to get the xml data.
So i tried getStringval(), getting the xml content as string format and here in this case also, i didn't get document object.
Here is the code snippet:
String sql = "SELECT node_id,node_desc,parent_node_id,e.report_xml.getStringval() FROM TABLE_STRUCTURE e";
st = con.createStatement();
rs = st.executeQuery(sql);
while (rs.next()) {
Object value[] = { rs.getString(1), rs.getString(2), rs.getString(3), rs.getString(4) };
list.add(value);
DOMParser parser = new DOMParser();
parser.parse(rs.getString(4));
doc = (Document) parser.getDocument();
System.out.println(": DOM = " + doc.getClass().getName());
Please do guide in this scenario.
Thanks in advance.

Import Informix data into Oracle

Hi. We have an Informix 7.25 SE database and we need to schedule daily imports of some of its tables into an Oracle 10g database on Solaris. The databases are on different machines. Thank you for your help.

You could export to a flat-file (e.g CSV) and then import to Oracle using sqlldr.
You could install Oracle Heterogenous Services and setup an Oracle database link to select directly from Informix.

Thanks for suggestion, now I got different error
Database error text........: "ORA-01858: a non-numeric character was found
where a numeric was expected#"
When I debugg I have some unxpected field values in internal table itab:
DAT      USNAM        NOVI
X2009032|0NIHADOM     |
X2009032|0NIHADOM     |
But, it should be like this
DAT      USNAM        NOVI
20090320|NIHADOM     |X
20090320|NIHADOM     |X
Any idea why I got indicator X in DAT field but it should be in NOVI. Is that why I got above error?
