Migration from sql-server 7.0 to oracle 8i

Hai,
I have one huge database in sql-server 7.0.
That database has chienese,arabic and korean data. And i have created one database in oracle 8.1.6 with character set UTF8.
By using migration work bench i couldn't transfer sql-server data into oracle 8.1.6 database which has character set utf8.
But i have managed to transfer sql-server 7.0 to oracle 8.1.6 database which has us7ascii character set.
Please give me the steps to transfer from sql-server 7.0 to oracle 8.1.6 database which has the character set utf8.
I need it very very urgetnt.
Best Regards,
Sudhir.

I understand that it would not be in the best interests of Oracle, monetarily that is (at least in the visible/tangible sense), to develop such a migration tool, but since the competition hasn't, why shouldn't you? I'm sure Prabha's not the first to inquire of such a thing, and I'm sure I'd have asked a similar question if I wasn't responding to you in this way. We all know Oracle is the better db - That's why we're here talking about it - but not everyone we do business with understands that, so establishing a two way street is the best way, short of requiring it of our clients, to turn them on to Oracle. I don't really think developing such a thing would hurt your business (unless MS can keep you from doing it). If your product is that much better (which we agree is true), you shouldn't be afraid of the competition. As for being afraid of proprietary constraints, I can't blame you, because I don't know how much it constrains you.

Hi Prabha,
My first reaction to your question would be "why would anyone want to migrate FROM Oracle and TO SQLServer ?". Oracle is easily the better database !
...but no, I don't really think it would be in Oracle's best interests to produce a migration tool that moved users to a propritory Microsoft product/platform..<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Hi,
I would like to migrate data from SQL Server 6.5 to Oracle

There is a new feature in version 1.2.1 of the migration
workbench that will generate the BCP and SQL Loader scripts for
you.
Right mouse click on the 'Tables' component group in the Oracle
Model UI tree and click 'Generate Data Migrate Script...'.
This will place the scripts in the Log directory you have
specified in the Tools -> Options menu. Go to the Logging tab and
enter a valid value for 'Log file directory'.
The data move scripts will be located in the 'Log file
directory'\SQLServer6 directory.

Are you migrating or taking continual updates?
If migrating it might be worth considering The SQLDeveloper Migration Workbench (which moves more than just data)..

We plan on having a beta version of this capability in early
August. Contact [email protected] if you want to register as
a Beta tester.
Yes, you can update the Oracle model in OMW to remove those
tables you are not interested in, you can also select to just
migrate tables & data and nothing else.

Migration from SQL Server 7.0 to Oracle 8.0.5

Can we migrate from SQL Server 7.0 to Oracle 8.0.5 directly without being converted to Oracle 8i objects

Hi,
U can convert from sql server to Oracle 8 but u've to look after the stored procedures in mssql server. If the stored procedures contains any temporary table concepts and resultset then some manual changes are required.
Thanx,

Data Migration from SQL server best option

Hi all,
I am importing data from SQL server to oracle server, both of them are on different machines. I had suggested DTS to be most viable option to do so, the SQL server team needs to know why DTS, here are the other options that i am aware of
1) Flat files ---delimited flat files data can be loaded into tables using external table since we have oracle 9i
2) using generic connectivity, but it requires changes in configuration files which our dba doesnt apporve , since he says that wud be lot of monitoring and maintenance when there are database upgrades
3) DBlink-- i dont know whether dblink works for oracle to sql server, i think it doesnt work?? correct me if am wrong
and the last is DTS
it wud be of great help if i could know that in such a scenario how good is DTS compared to other options in terms of speed, maintenance and monitoring, also if there are any other options to import the data.
the volume of data is large abt 500000 one time load and then abt 8000 records on a daily basis
thanks
abhishek

2 & 3 are really the same thing. Generic Connectivity allows you to create a database link from Oracle to SQL Server.
SQL Server also has the concept of a linked server that is analgous to Generic Connectivity that would allow you to connect from SQL Server to Oracle and push the changes over.
There are a variety of other ETL tools out there that can handle this sort of thing (Oracle's is Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB)) in addition to DTS as well.
Personally, I would prefer Generic Connectivity, but that's just me. At one client site, we pull millions of records out of a DB2 database every night and haven't had any issues related to the stability of Generic Connectivity. Realistically, migrating 8000 rows a night is going to be pretty easy no matter what route you take, so it really comes down to what standards your organization has for data transfer and what sort of skillset the developers are going to have.

Extract the data from SQL Server and Import into Oracle

Hi,
I would like to run a daily job that will export the table data from SQL server table (it will be only one or two table) and Import back into Oracle table (it might one or two table tables).
Could you please guide me that how can i do this using either sql server or oracle?
We have oracle 9.2 and sql server 2005.
Normally i do from flat file which is generated by source destination nand i dump into oracle using sql*loader but this time I have to directly extract/export the data from MS Sql server and load into Oracle table, mostly it will reload so i might doing any massaging data during the load.
If you show me the detail approach, it will be really appreciated.
I have access to Sql server but i don't how to use sql server to do this or using oracle as a daily job even becuase have to schedule the job for this as it will be a daily job.
Thanks,
poratips

Unless you can find an open source ODBC driver for SQL Server that runs on Solaris (and I wouldn't be overly hopeful there) Heterogeneous Services would require that you license something-- a third party ODBC driver, a new Oracle instance, or an Oracle Transparent Gateway.
As I stated below, you could certainly use SQL Server's ETL tool, DTS. Oracle's ETL tools would require additional licensing since you're just on 9.2. You could also write a small application (Java or otherwise) that connected to both databases and transferred the data. If you're particularly enterprising, you could load the SQL Server Type 4 JDBC driver into Oracle's JVM and write a Java stored procedure that connected to the SQL Server database via JDBC, but that's a pretty convoluted approach.

How can I migrate data from SQL Server 6,5 to Oracle 8?

We have a web site based on Microsoft SQL Server 6.5.Now we plan
to migrate the database to Oracle 8.
We have redesigned the tables structure and created tables under
Oracle 8, so we only need to migrate data from SQL Server.
We've exported data from SQL Server to text files.
How can we import data from files and restore to Oracle tables.
Is there a solution which let us to import data for particular
table columns,not all columns?
We'll be appreciated if somene can give suggestions.

Best way to import data only from sql server 2k to ora9.2

I have a situation where I don't care about indexes, procedures. The DDLs from sql server 2k and ora9.2
are (mostly) teh same, I need to port the data from sqlserver to my ora database.
what is the best way to do it?
thanks.

Hello Zack,
The Oracle Migration Workbench can help you to migrate your data from your Oracle 9.2 database to SQL Server 2000. Please refer to Chapter 6, 'Migrating the Database' in the Oracle Migration Workbench User's Guide for more information about how to migrate your data using the Oracle Migration Workbench.
You can find this document at the following location on the Oracle Technology Network (OTN) Web site:

Automating Data Migration from SQL Server 2005

Hi All,
I need to migrate data from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle DB ( Datawarehouse). The data migration involves updating Dimensions and Fact table. I have got painful job of switching topology to point to over 100 different weekly SQL DBs ( in sequence) and pull the data into DW. How can I automate my ODI process to switch from one after the other.
Any Ideas?
KS

ODI Variables are there to help you with this. Please go through this post at [http://blogs.oracle.com/dataintegration/2009/05/using_odi_variables_in_topolog.html] .
This will show you how to use a variable Oracle data server.
On similar lines you should be able to switch to any of your 100 weekly SQL server DBs.
And loop in a sequence to load data from all of them.
Hope that helps

Import IMAGE type from SQL Server to BLOB in Oracle

Hello,
Is there a way to import a IMAGE type from SQL Server to BLOB type in Oracle from one table to another through a database link?
I'm waiting for an answer as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Florin
Edited by: Florin Manole on Sep 10, 2008 11:53 AM

Have you already configured a Heterogeneous Services and Generic Connectivity to create a database link from Oracle to SQL Server? I haven't tried copying IMAGE data from SQL Server via Heterogeous Services myself, but from the [data type map|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14232/apb.htm#sthref509] in the documentation, I would expect that it would work so long as the SQL Server ODBC driver maps the IMAGE data type to SQL_LONGVARBINARY

Migrating from SQL Server 7.0 To Oracle 8i (SQLServer Jobs/ Schedules)

Hi there,
How do you schedule jobs in Oracle in a similar way as SQL Server 7.0? So far I have only been able to find a DBMS_JOB.Start and Enable and Disable.
Apart from this I have a question on maintainence procedures.
I run the following steps in SQL Server for performance benefits.
1) Rebuild INdexes
2) Database Shrink
3) Recompile Stored Procedures
4) Recompute Statistics
5) Make an entry in a table to indicate that these 4 tasks have been completed.
Do these things matter in Oracle or does the database take care of it on its own? How do you get a similar maintenance schedule up and running in Oracle 8i?
Please reply.
Thanks and Regards,
Ajay

Hi,
Version 1.2.5.0.0 will be available for free download from this site within the next two weeks.
I will migrate both schema and data for a SQL Server 7.0 database.
