Converting Sybase ASE 11.5.1 to Oracle 8.1.6.0.0

I want to migrate some Sybase ASE 11.5.1 databases to Oracle 8.1.6.0.0 Should I use the Oracle Migration Workbench 1.3.1.0.0 and create a separate Oracle home to install Workbench or should I use an older version of Workbench which installs into 8.1.6.0.0?
Where can I find the older version of Workbench that installs into 8.1.6.0.0? I have searched the OTN pages and can't find an older version of Workbench. Thanks.

Use the Oracle Migration Workbench 1.3.1.0.0 and create a separate Oracle home to install Workbench. The latest version of the workbench will have more features and more bugfixes.

Error when "Copy to Oracle" in Sybase ASE 12.5.3

I found this thread
"Copy to Oracle" issue in SQL Developer 3.0
from google and think I'm having exact same issue.
Connecting to sybase ASE 12.5.3
Right-click table, Copy To Oracle..
Pop up message says "Copy to Oracle finished" and log error:
Source: o.d.migration.copy.BridgeTableDef
Message: Issue running BRIDGE command
I am using JTDS 1.2 and have also tried JTDS 2.1. Oracle SQL Developer 3.0.04
The sybase table to copy is in the default database of the userid.

Could you please post a table and some demo data that is failing in your environment - or at least you can also test the table given in the post you are referring to:
CREATE TABLE sybdb.dbo.fetch (
     f_id           numeric identity(18)      NOT NULL,
     s_id           numeric(18)           NOT NULL,
     added_date      datetime           NOT NULL,
     added_by      varchar(30)           NOT NULL
INSERT INTO sybdb.dbo.fetch(f_id, s_id, added_date, added_by) VALUES (1080, 2944, '2011-08-05 03:36:10.64', 'User A');
INSERT INTO sybdb.dbo.fetch(f_id, s_id, added_date, added_by) VALUES (1081, 2944, '2011-08-05 03:36:35.486', 'User B');
INSERT INTO sybdb.dbo.fetch(f_id, s_id, added_date, added_by) VALUES (1082, 2944, '2011-08-05 03:36:54.24', 'User C');
Does this work for you or fails also?

Migration from SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12 and then to ORACLE 10G

Hi ,
The OWMB tool does not support migration of SYBASE IQ to ORACLE.So there should be some tool to migrate this SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12.And then which we can migrate to ORACLE which the OMWB supports.Does anybody have any idea about such tool(SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12).
Thanks With Regards,
Vinoth

Vinoth,
That's correct. However Sybase IQ is normally associated with Data Warehouses. Have you investigated the suitability of using Oracle Warehouse builder to assist with such a migration?
Ispirer supports migration from Sybase IQ 12 ( http://www.ispirer.com/products)

OMW supports sybase ASE 15 to Oracle 10g migration?

Hi,
I want to migrate data from Sybase ASE 15 to Oracle 10g. Can i use OMW for this purpose if not then what is the other way of doing it?
Kind regards
Ankit

No, not the current workbench. We will be bringing out support for Sybase 15 in SQL Developer at the next release.
You could try bringing the db down to 12 if that was an option and then migrate from that.

Sybase ASE to Oracle 11g conversion

Hi,
Can anyone please look at the following Sybase ASE to Oracle 11g conversion - the top remarked code is the original Sybase version and the two UPDATE blocks below are hopefully doing the same task... What I need to know is if there is a more simple (less code change) way of doing the same task, either as a single UPDATE or preferably even more similar to the original Sybase code..?
-- /* now apply allocations */
-- update diary_items
-- set id_user = ia.id_user ,
-- tx_icon_user = 'urlcats:/user_grey.gif?method:getAllocationInfo'
-- from diary_items di,
-- item_allocation ia
-- where di.id_diary_item = ia.id_object
-- and ia.id_object_type = 'W'
-- and ia.id_user != 'autocats'
-- OK!
-- ??? Need to check if second UPDATE which is the same as above is required again...
/* now apply notes */
UPDATE diary_items
SET diary_items.tx_icon_user =
( SELECT 'urlcats:/user_grey.gif?method:getAllocationInfo'
FROM item_allocation
WHERE item_allocation.id_object = diary_items.id_diary_item )
WHERE EXISTS
( SELECT item_allocation.id_object
FROM item_allocation
WHERE item_allocation.id_object = diary_items.id_diary_item
AND item_allocation.id_object_type = 'W'
AND item_allocation.id_user != 'autocats' )
UPDATE diary_items
SET diary_items.id_user =
( SELECT item_allocation.id_user
FROM item_allocation
WHERE item_allocation.id_object = diary_items.id_diary_item )
WHERE EXISTS
( SELECT item_allocation.id_object
FROM item_allocation
WHERE item_allocation.id_object = diary_items.id_diary_item
AND item_allocation.id_object_type = 'W'
AND item_allocation.id_user != 'autocats' )
Many thanks!!!

I managed to work it out in the end - here's the solution...
/* now apply allocations */
update diary_items
set ( id_user,
tx_icon_user ) =
( select ia.id_user,
'urlcats:/user_grey.gif?method:getAllocationInfo'
from diary_items di,
item_allocation ia
where di.id_diary_item = ia.id_object
and ia.id_object_type = 'W'
and ia.id_user != 'autocats'
)

Oracle to SAP Sybase ASE Migration

Hi
We are planing to migrate Solution Manger 7.1.
Source : OS- HP-UX , DB - Oracle 11g
Target : OS - SUSE Linux , DB - SYBASE ASE 15.7
Can we migrate using normal system copy method ( heterogeneous) using SPM toool or is there any specific procedure/ steps need to follow ?
Thanks
Shashi

Hi Shashi,
You need to use SWPM tool and Heterogenous system copy to perform this migration.
You may need to read some notes related to Sybase as mentioned below
1734039 - SYB: Migration to Sybase ASE using unsorted unload/load
1680803 - SYB: Migration to SAP Adaptive Server Enterprise - Best Practice

Migrate Sybase ASE 15 to Oracle 9i

Hi!
Are there any plans to support migration from Sybase ASE 15.x to Oracle (in my case it would be Oracle 9i) ?
Thanks

Hi,
At the moment our current focus is the redevelopment of the Oracle Migration Workbench as an extension to SQL Developer. We have published our statement of direction here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/migrationtoolsstatementofdirection.htm
Once this is completed, I would expect Sybase to be the next database we would upgrade to this new tool and we would deal with Sybase 15.x as part of this. Sorry, no dates for this yet.
Adventent tool, does support this now

Sybase ASE integrator to Oracle 10g use Synchronous mode?

I want to use ODI to replicate Sybase ASE data into Oracle 10g, what I've done is using "JKM Sybase simple" and "LKM SQL to SQL" and "IKM Oracle Incremental Update", then create a interface, create a scenario, create a scheduling running in Scheduler Agent, every 5 seconds get the journalized data from Sybase and refresh to Oracle.
This is acceptable, but my question is: Can I set this scenario in synchronous mode, not pulling changed data every 5 seconds but instead of pushing changed data to Oracle just after DML committed in Sybase?

No, not the current workbench. We will be bringing out support for Sybase 15 in SQL Developer at the next release.
You could try bringing the db down to 12 if that was an option and then migrate from that.

Teradata database , sybase ASE and oracle database

hi
what are the difference between the architecture of teradata database and oracle db??
i have some working experience on oracle database but none on teradata and sybase ASE.
1)as per i know oracle schema is a user is the same in teradata and sybase ASE??
2)what is the architecture teredata and sybase ASE follows as oracle doesn't.who have more benificial architecture ??
3)teradata follows a transact sql (i guess) what is that??
4) teradata have Backup Archive and Recovery feature is it same as RMAN in oracle??
etc.
kind regards

hi
suppose you want to grade oracle db,sybase,and teradata with in 10 what you will grade??
from architecture and security perspective :==
kind regards

Sybase ASE 15.7.103 ODBC Driver invalid descriptor index

Hey guys,
after migration from oracle nuc to sybase ase 15.7.101 unicode and implementation of sapnote 1558958 (dbacockpit collection for NW 702) there were everything which was in dbacockpit displayed ok.
After upgrade to patch 103 theres a problem in the dbacockpit. I will show in the register Database SID - Space - Tables and Indices - Tables.
After I select this. There comes follwing error: ASE Error SQL30013:07009][SAP][ASE ODBC Driver]Invalid descriptor index.
In error details I see SQLCode 30013
The Database ist open and there are no other kown problems with connection. SAP could establish connection to sybase ase database and users can work normally.
In the dbacockpit Database SID - Space - Devices and Databases are shown without problems.

Sybase ASE basics

Hello All,
I am new to sybase database ,I ma having some doubts in sybase database ,Please clarify below points
1) what is the phases involved while starting and stooping the database ( example in orcale Mount phase ,no mount phase etc)
2) I have read in some guides most of the datbase related parameters are dynamic there is no need to reboot the server .---these parameters storing location i mean what is the naming convention of file name ?
3) Sybase ase db configuration will store in DBSID.CFG file is that correct?
4) isql comand is case sensitive ?
5) to check missing stats execut isql -Usapsa -S<SID> -X -w999    here what is -w999 means and X also
Please sugegst and guide me

Hi
First of all, specific answers to your questions
1) what is the phases involved while starting and stooping the database ( example in orcale Mount phase ,no mount phase etc)
There is no such analogous in Sybase (I think), But as whenver ASE server starts (startserver -f RUN_servername) it checks the following areas
ASE_CORE license information
option "number of engines at startup"
Environment variables like 'SYBASE', 'SYBASE_OCS' 'SYBASE_ASE'
Configuration file located at cd $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/servername.cfg for using configuration information
ASE errorlog file located at cd $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/install/servername.log   for logging ASE messages
Allocates memory (for procedure cache which is similar to Oracle's Shared Pool)
Initializing virtual device 0, '/sybase/E10/sybsystem/master.dat' with dsync 'off'
Recovers master database and brings it online which is followed other system and user databases
2) I have read in some guides most of the datbase related parameters are dynamic there is no need to reboot the server .---these parameters storing location i mean what is the naming convention of file name ?
Here you mean the configuration file which is located at cd $SYBASE/$SYBASE_ASE/servername.cfg
3) Sybase ase db configuration will store in DBSID.CFG file is that correct?
.cfg is the extension we give to recognize easily and the general naming convention is SERVERNAME.cfg
4) isql comand is case sensitive ?
Yes
5) to check missing stats execut isql -Usapsa -S<SID> -X -w999    here what is -w999 means and X also
isql : interactive sql
-U: user name
-S: server name
-w : width of the column, sets the screen width for output
-X: is used for client-side password encryption
The following may increase your understanding on Sybase ASE (considering, you are aware of Oracle RDBMS)
When you create an Oracle server both the SYSTEM and SYSAUX tablespaces will be created and you cannot drop them thereafter.
When you create ASE, the system specific databases master, model, sybsystemprocs, sybsystemdb and tempdb will be created and you cannot drop them either.
ASE’s master database contains the server wide metadata sys and the dynamic monitoring MDA tables.
These tables are functionally equivalent to Oracle’s DBA and Dynamic Performance V$ Views respectively.
In a nutshell, master, model and sybsystemprocs databases are as vital to ASE as are SYSTEM, SYSAUX and control files for Oracle.
ASE’s tempdb database is equivalent in functionality to the Oracle’s temporary tablespace. ASE can have multiple tempdbs and these can be grouped much like Oracle 10g’s temporary tablespace groups.
Storage Concepts
In Oracle data block is the fundamental unit of storage whereas the basic unit of storage in ASE is data page.
Extent is the next unit of storage in ASE. Unlike Oracle where an extent is a specific number of contiguous data blocks, an ASE extent is fixed at eight contiguous data pages.
The smallest amount of space that a table or index can occupy is one extent.
Extents are always allocated to a table, index, or LOB structure.
The next logical unit of storage above the extent is the allocation unit. An allocation unit is fixed at thirty two extents.
Both Oracle and ASE provide logical constructs for mapping of the underlying operating system datafiles.
Oracle calls this construct a tablespace and ASE refers to the construct as device.
An ASE device, like an Oracle tablespace, is a logical structure
Most confusing part of data storage when it comes to ASE is the segment.
In Oracle, a segment is a group of one or more extents that contains all the data for a specific structure within a tablespace, such as table or index.
However, this is not the case in ASE. When an ASE database is created on devices or device fragments, three segments are automatically created on each corresponding device or device fragment.
In ASE the segments are there to constrain where an object can be placed.
For example, you can create a table or index on a specific segment. The system generated segments are called system, default and logsegment respectively. User defined segments can be added to devices if required.
Want to know more (Oracle and Sybase similarities) on Sybase ASE working. Let me know specific questions/doubts

Rajesh

Converting Sybase Stored procedures

Our team has looked at the conv72.exe add-on that converts
Sybase Transact Sql stored procedures to PL/SQL stored
procedures (packages). We like many aspects of the tool, but
the output does not meet with our coding standards and
conventions. We would still have to completely reformat and
rename about 1/2 of the output. This would take almost as much
time as converting the procedures manually. Is there any way
that we can modify how the output is presented? i.e. Has anyone
written any tools that reformat the output of this tool, or is
there anyway that we can have access to the source code so that
we can change how the output is formatted. Our team is familiar
with virtually every programming environment, so we would not be
looking for any support if we were to get the source code.
null

Julie,
We would be very interested in looking at your coding standards
to see if there is something we should do with our new Sybase
plugin to the Migration Workbench to improve the quality of
PLSQL code generated.
If you would be interested in following up on this please
drop an email to the Workbench helpdesk, infomwb@ie oracle.com,
and we will discuss further.
We are always looking to improve the Workbench and if there
is something that we can do to help address this issue we
would be very interested in persuing it.
Regards,
Marie

Unable to install Client Tools for Sybase ASE 15.7 on Windows Server 2012 64-Bit

Hello Folks,
I just downloaded the client tools package from https://support.sap.com/swdc --> Installation and Upgrades --> A-Z list --> SAP ADAPTIVE SERVER ENTERPRISE --> SYBASE ASE 15.7 --> Installation --> Microsoft Windows --> 51044415.zip
I'm trying to install the client tools for a newly provisioned Windows 2012 64-Bit machine. After unzipping the folder and running autorun, the installation does not proceed. When I go to pcclient64 and run either setup.exe or setupConsole.exe, I get the error "This Application has Unexpectedly Quit, Invocation of this Java Application has caused an InvocationTargetException. This application will now exit. (LAX)". I stumbled across various posts on the forum, and it appears that the installer is not certified for Windows Server 2012. I tried using the compatibility mode for Windows 7, and it proceeds further and launches the SAP GUI; however, it closes afterwards.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
51044415 is a PC-Client 15.7 refresh.
You are using a version that was not certified with Windows 2012. Get the most current version PC-Client 15.7 SP130 or SDK 15.7 SP130 or SP132.
If your looking for PC-Client5.7 SP130 look for EBF23439
We didn't get certified with Windows 2012 until SDK 15.7 ESD#6 even with that I reported a few minor issues.
You need the following on the machine before the installation.
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 Redistributable Package (x64)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)
Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x64) (or dsedit and ocscfg will not work)
Thanks,

Sybase ASE 12.5.4 EBF 14124 ESD#4 running out of connections

I am working on a web application which works on SQL sever back end as well as Sybase ASE 12.5.4 EA server. Our project main focus was to move everything to sybase backend.
Earlier there were 2 databases, the app was connecting to - db1 on sql server, and db2 on sybase. Now we have created a separate namespace within db2 in sybase. So application only connects with db2, but with different users and in separate schemas.
Application is in java and connecting to db server using jcon3 driver library. It is using SybXADataSource driver class (provided by jcon3 jar) to connect to the server. Till last week application was able to connect to the server, everything was working fine (though I must say that code is still not optimized to use connection pools etc., I am opening a connection, and closing it for every request).
For sometime, I have been facing an issue from the server- login failed, try again. In the server error logs I found it was throwing an error- "Error 1601 Severity 17 state 3: no user connections available to run the process" I checked for available connections (using sp_configure), allowed connections are 900, and total active connection at the time this error shows up is typically between 30- 100 (using sp_monitorconfig). Seems like this is well within limits.
Also yesterday, I did one more exercise, I restarted the server and logged in as sa from isql console only. Logged out and logged in again afimeter 20 minutes (no application connection was made), and isql login again gave this error. So I am inclined to think that something could be wrong with server configuration as well. Server is on linux red hat.
I have searched all the db forums and SCN website as well, and all of these refer to one resolution of increasing the number of connections, but as from my observation regarding that, I do not think it is an issue.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

During your sa/isql test, how did you exit from your sessions? Did you type 'exit + go', hit ^S, hit ^C, something else?
Are you running your sa/isql test from the same linux host where the ASE is runing, or from another host on the network?
Is your isql session connecting directly to the dataserver or are you going through an intermediary service?
Are there any login triggers on your sa account? (See the output from sp_displaylogin sa)
Could you run your sa/isql test again, but this time:
session #1: log in as sa using isql; stay logged in
session #2: perform your login/logout test using sa + isql
session #1: periodically run 'sp_who' to see the active connections; does the list of connections grow over time?
