Database Link beetwen SAP e SQL SERVER

Hi Gurus,
i need to read a table in SQL server, from a WebDynpro abap.
My OS is Unix not windows, how can i create a DBLINK to SQL server (for example es a Oracle system), is it possible?
thanks a lot.
Claudio.

To connect an ABAP system to another database the following is necessary:
- a database client for the target database
- a database interface library for the target database
Since both are not existing on Unix for Microsoft SQL Server the only (supported) thing you can do is to install a Windows application server and execute the application there.

  • Creation of database link from oracle to sql server 2000

    Hi
    I need to create a database link from oracle to sql server 2000.

    Assuming your Oracle database is running on Windows, you can set up a database link using ODBC using Heterogeneous Services and Generic Connectivity, but there are some functional limitations (i.e. no two-phase commits). If you can live with those limitations but aren't on Windows, you can generally purchase an ODBC driver for your operating system that will connect to SQL Server through someone like DataDirect and still use Generic Connectivity. If you cannot live with those limitations, you can purchase one of Oracle's Transparent Gateway products (though this can get somewhat pricey).
    What version of Oracle are you on?
    What operating system(s) are you using?
    What are you going to use the database link for?

  • Creating Database Link from Oracle to SQL Server

    I am trying to create a database link from Oracle to SQL Server, and the documentation is about as clear as mud to me. Can anyone send me clear instructions on exactly what I need to do? What needs to be in tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files? Is there anything other than those two files that needs to be set up? Do I set up an ODBC connection? Anything else? I want to execute queries against a SQL Server database and load data into Oracle database.
    Thanks so much,
    Susan

    These are the instructions from an old document I created. The steps are same for SQL Server and Sybase. Hope it helps.
    The 9i Transparent Gateway Software is in Oracle Software CD -> oracle9i database -> Custom -> Oracle Transparent Gateways
    The gateway can be installed on the same machine as the Oracle database or
    on the Sybase server or on a third machine as a stand-alone.
    We have installed the gateway software in one of oracle database
    servers in a separate oracle home.
    These are the steps involved in configuring a gateway to a Sybase database
    1.     Install Sybase client and Gateway software on the Gateway Server
    2.     Configure <initsidfile> in the Gateway Server's <gatewayhome>
         /u00/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/tg4sybs/admin/init<gatewaysid>.ora
    Sybase server and database information is required for this step.
    eg: HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=USTRUD01.uwd
    3.     Add an entry in listener.ora in <listnenerhome>
         (/u00/app/oracle/product/9.0.1/network/admin/listener.ora) for the <gatewaysid>
    4.     Edit the tnsnames file (/u00/app/oracle/product/9.0.1/network/admin/tnsnames.ora)
    to add an entry <tnsalias> for the <gatewaysid>
    5.     Create a database link to the Sybase database in the oracle database.
    The steps for creating the database link are
    a. create a login oracle_tgw in the sybase server
    b. add the user to the sybase database with the necessary privilege on the tables
    c. create the database link in the required oracle database using the command
         "create public database link <dblinkname> connect to oracle_tgw identified by password using 'tnsalias'; "
    6.     Restart the gateway listener.

  • How to create database link between oracle and SQL Server

    Hello Everyone,
    Here i have Oracle Database 9i and SQL Server 2005 databases.
    I have some tables in sql server db and i want to access from Oracle.
    How to create a database link between these two servers
    Thanks,

    Thanks for Everyone,
    I was struggle with this almost 10 days....
    I created Database link from Oracle to SQL Server
    Now it is fine.........
    Here i am giving my servers configuration and proceedure how i created the db link...@
    Using Generic Connectivity (HSODBC) we can create db link between Oracle and SQL server.
    Machine (1)
    DB Version : Oracle 9.2.0.7.0
    Operating System : HP-UX Itanuim 64 11.23
    IP : 192.168.0.31
    Host : abcdbt
    Machine (2)
    Version : SQL Server 2005
    Operating System : Windows server 2003 x86
    IP : 192.168.0.175
    Host : SQLDEV1
    User/PW : sa/abc@123! (Connect to database)
    Database : SQLTEST (exsisting)
    Table : T (“ T “ is the table existing in SQLTEST database with 10 rows)
    Prerequisites in Machine (2):
    a)     Oracle 10g software
    b)     User account to access SQL Server database (sa/abc@123!)
    c)     Existing SQL Server Database (SQLTEST)
    d) Tables (testing purpose) (T)
    Steps:
    1)     Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 (Only SW,No need of database) *(Machine 2)*
    2)     Create a DSN where your windows Oracle 10g SW resides *(Machine 2)*
    Control panel >> Administrative Tools >> Data Source (ODBC) >> System DSN ADD
    You can follow this link also.....
    http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/3442661/Making-a-Connection-from-Oracle-to-SQL-Server.htm
    I created DSN as
    DSN name : SQLTEST
    User : SA/abc@123! (Existing user account)
    Host : 192.168.0.175 (machine 2)
    Already I have 1 database in SQL Server with the name SQLTEST
    You can create DSN with different name also (not same as db name also)
    3)     Create a hsodbc init file in $ORACLE_HOME\hs\admin *(Machine 2)*
    Create init<DSN NAME> file
    Ex: initSQLTEST
    Copy inithsodbc to initSQLTEST
    And edit
    initSQLTEST file
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = SQLTEST    <DSN NAME>*
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = OFF*
    save the file....@
    4)     Configure Listener.ora *(Machine 2)*
    LISTENER_NEW =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.175)(PORT = 1525))

    (PROGRAM = hsodbc))
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
    (ORACLE_HOME = G:\oracle 10g\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
    (PROGRAM = extproc) )
    :> lsnrctl start LISTENER_NEW
    5)     Configure tnsname.ora *(Machine 2)*
    SQLTEST11 =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.175)(PORT = 1525))

    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = SQLTEST))
    (HS=OK)
    :> tnsping SQLTEST11
    If No errors then conti….
    6)     Configure a file *(Machine 1)*
    Cd $TNS_ADMIN ($ORACLE_HOME/network/admin)
    Create a file
    $ vi TEST_abcdbt_ifile.ora
    something=
    (DESCRIPTION=

  • Creating Database link from Oracle9i to SQL server 2000

    Pls how do I create connectivity from Oracle9i database to query a table in an SQL server 2000 database.
    Pls I need the necessary steps to take.
    Thanx

    There are 2 solutions that you can use:
    1) Transparent Gateway for SQL Server
    2) Generic Connectivity
    Generic Connectivity is free with the database but has less features than the Gateway. For Generic Connectivity you will need to obtain an ODBC driver.
    The steps for using the gateway are available in the gateway manual and the steps for using Generic Connectivity is available in Chap 7 of the Heterogeneous Connectivity Administrator's Guide.

  • Developing database views between Oracle and SQL Server tables

    I am on Oracle 10.2, my organization has many SQL Server databases as well and has now made
    SQL server as company standard so many new databases will be developed in SQL Server. It is of course
    not possible to convert all Oracle databases to SQL Server, so a mix environment will exist. Two questions:
    1.     Is it possible to develop database views in Oracle (10g in my case) which join Oracle tables with tables in SQL Server 2008? If yes, how. I have seen some heterogeneous connectivity setup to connect SQL Server to Oracle, but not sure whether it is possible to develop a database view across two databases.
    2.     I know it is not a SQL Server forum, but many DBA’s know both Oracle and SQL Server. Is it possible to develop views in SQL Server (SQL Server 2008 R2 in my case) which join Oracle 10g and SQL Server 2008 tables? I know in SQL Server, there is way to set up linked servers, but do not know whether it is possible to develop views.
    Thanks a lot for your insight.

    You can create views that join local Oracle tables and remote SQL Server tables. I'm pretty sure you can do the reverse as well but I haven't personally done it.
    However, I would be very concerned about the performance you'd get if you created that sort of view. You'd very frequently end up in a situation where Oracle has to pull all the data in the remote table across the database link in order to apply predicates and join the data locally. That could be disastrous from a performance standpoint.

  • Using database link  with a dynamic SQL in Forms 5

    I have a Form 5 application where a database link is specified in a client version of dynamic SQL. The function that the application is designed to perform is to access data in a table in a remote database and use it to populate another table in a local database with the same structure as the source table. Dynamic SQL is used because the name of the table can only be resolved during run time.
    The problem is that it gives error with code 'ORA-03113' and text 'End-of-file on communication channel' when you try to run it.
    Is it not possible to use a database link with a dynamic SQL? What can I do to overcome the problem ?

    Try to create a local view based ao the remote table and use the view.

    It's often only a problem of the service dependencies. SCVMM starts to fast, SQL server on the same machine in not initialized yet. Here are working service dependencies to ensure SQL server is initializes before SCVMM starts.
    You can set the service dependencies directly in regedit (as always: be careful modifying the registry ...)
    Here is the content of a reg file setting the dependency.
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\SCVMMService]

    Does SAP use SQL server's snapshot and transactional replication?
    Thanks!

    Hi Christy,
    no, SAP does not directly leverage these functions.
    But none the less, it is up to you to use these on your system. I regulary use the snapshot functionality when applying Support Packages. In case somehing goes wrong a snapshot is the easiest way to roll back the import process (not exactly the best choice when talking about production and users keep on working while importing).
    Have a look at this [document |http://download.microsoft.com/download/d/9/4/d948f981-926e-40fa-a026-5bfcf076d9b9/SAP_SQL2005_Best Practices.doc]. It deals with Best Practices and also covers snapshot, replication and mirroring.
