DB from AIX to NT

Can I use the full database backup (made under AIX)to restore it
under Windows NT 4.0? Both databases are version 8.0.4, however
the NT version is a workgroup version and the AIX version is an
Enterprise Edition.
Thanks in advance.

Fermin,
you need to do an logical export and import of the database. Just
moving a backup will not do it. The needed programms are exp and
imp. They are fully described in the utilities manual.

File from AIX to AS/400 via FTP

Hi,
i need to transfer a file as it is from AIX to AS/400. Doing that with WS-FTP works fine. So i set up a scenario in XI, getting the file from the AIX with NFS and putting the file to the AS/400 with FTP. The runtime workbench tells me that everything is ok (successful) and the file is created on the specified host in the specified folder.
But - the file is not created on the host, or maybe its not visible? Any idea what to check to get a solution? The host is ok, the folder is ok, WS-FTP works fine resulting in a visible file, in XI everything is fine, but the file is missing at least. I really dont know where to have a look at. Anything special to AS/400 in XI?

I mean the second option(File being picked by some other program on AS400 side)
Is the file name or the pattern of the file name the same when you create it using WS-FTP and via XI?
May be, the files created by the XI system are only qualified to be picked by that INVISIBLE Job(Based on some selection on file name patterns) (Assuming that it exists)?
Just keep the FTP folder on the As400 side open while you run the scenario and make sure everything happens in front of your eyes..:) (Like the file coming and being picked away..)

Ravi Kanth Talagana
P.S: Sorry if I am getting on your nerves with my Invisible Job theory..:)

Oracle E-business suite database migrate from AIX to Linux

Oracle 11i application database migration from single Aix instance to oracle Linux cluster RAC.
What is the easy way to migrate?
Migrate single instance from aix to linux cluster.
OR
Migrate single instance from aix to linux cluster RAC.
We have installed oracle Linux cluster.
Please help me which way I can go with RAC.
Thanks
Prince

Migrating to a single instance will be the simplest. The migration itself will not be much different between the two because you're migrating from one platform to another. The options you have available are, the traditional IMP/EXP, datapump, and RMAN to migrate to either a standalone or RAC environment. The difficulty will be in creating a RAC environment and a little a few extra steps in the RMAN restore. Working with RAC will make things harder, but the actual migration is similar. The steps to IMP/EXP, whether it's traditional or Datapump will be no different. However, standing up a RAC database will be.

Steps to export and import oracle 10g databse from AIX to AIX and LINUX

Hi,
I need the steps to export the oracle 10g database from AIX server to AIX server and LINUX server.
Please give me all the steps as this is my first exort an import activity.
thanks,

For 10g there exist two ways to do so.
1) Regular exp/imp.
2) Data pump expdp/impdp.
As this is your first export and import activity, relevant concept understanding is mandatory for you.
Documentation Link
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/toc.htm
Read the chapters 1,2,3 (Data pump expdp/impdp) and 19 (regular exp/imp). Good luck.

Installing OBIEE 11.1.1.5 on AIX but running RCU from AIX is not supported.

Hi, according to Oracle® Fusion Middleware System Requirements and Specifications
11g Release 1 (11.1.1) I wiill not be able to run the RCU from AIX because as it states"RCU is available only on 32-bit x86 Linux and 32-bit Microsoft Windows operating system platforms" Does anyone know of a workaround for this? Any help would be appreciated.
Ryan

Correct, there is no workaround.
The RCU installer is available only on x86 as it is not instelf an application but an installer utlity to create the relational schemas and objects required by the core software components such as the OBI, EPM, and other fusion middleware products.
Just run the RCU from a windows client machine, etc. which points to the database server that will retain the schemas.

SAP Printer migration from AIX to windows

Dear Experts,
We migrated our ECC from AIX to Windows.
We want to migrate printers from AIX to windows.
Do we have to create queues from scratch in SPAD?
Can we use existing queues in SPAD?
Please guide what all steps are required.
Your help will be highly appreciated!
Thanks,
Harry

Hi Hary,
For windows environment you need to change the spool server hostname in SPAD and activate all the relevant printers.
Please check whether you had any network printers configured on AIX host. You can use command
smitty spooler or
lpstat -W -p<queuename>
If there are any spoolers configured for SAP system, you need to recreate them on windows.
Hope this helps.

Moving Oracle 9i database from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3

Hi,
We are planing to move few of our Oracle 9i databases from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3 on another server. Will offline backup/restore work in this case ? The databases are fairly big (> 1 TB each). Looking for some advice.. Thanks.

Hi Kamran,
As the DBs are fairly large ( approx. 1 TB each), how long it would take to copy the databases to the target server using RMAN DUPLICATE .. ? Do you think offline backup/restore would be a better approach ? Both the source and target boxes are co-located in the same data center. Thanks !
Rgds,
HimansuI assume that RMAN will be more faster than hard copy/paste (cold backup). I can't say how much it will probably take to take RMAN DUPLICATE, but it should be faster than cold backup

Porting Forms/Reports when migrating Oracle 9i DB from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3

Hi,
Looking for advice on how to port Oracle Forms/Reports modules when moving our Oracle 9i database from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3 platform. Details are as below:
Oracle Forms and Reports v6i (There is no version upgrade in Forms & Reports)
Database is Oracle 9i (No upgrade in database)
There is upgrade in hardware only : from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3
The application is having some 8000 forms/reports modules
Do we need to recompile the forms/reports after porting the 9i database to AIX 5.3 ?
Any direction would be appreciated .. Thanks !!
Regards,
Himansu

Hi,
Thanks for the response, we are going to recompile the Forms/Reports in the new environemnt.
Just wondering how much time it may take to recompile all the 8000 odd forms/reports modules.. ? Will 10 seconds per form/report module be safe enough for the compilation ? Because in a batch file every time it is going to connect to the database while compiling a module, I am assumming it may take some 5 seconds to 10 seconds for the compilation. Thanks for the help again.

Run SGEN in linux while Importing transports from AIX app serevrs

Hi
We have multiple AIX and Linux app servers for SAP NW 2004s/SCM 5.0 systems. We completed SGEN in AIX app servers. We need to import more than 300 transports. Can we run SGEN on Linux app servers (we will remove LINUX app servers from SMLG to prevent user logon from LINUX app servers) while we importing transports from AIX app servers? Will it be any impact with REPOSRC/REPOLOAD or Object locking?
Thanks
Dilip

Yes We do run SGEN both servers. and it takes double the time. My question is can we run SGEN on Linux while importing transports using AIX app servers. So this way we can gain sometime durinng our Mock Cutover timeline.

Cold backup from AIX to HP-UX

Hi,
Is it possible to restore a coldbackup which has taken form AIX machine to HP-UX machine?
I think there are endians different and not possible.. Please suggest me and correct me
Thanks

Not (AIX to Solaris) Edited by: KSG on Aug 11, 2010 6:25 PM

As I said above, if endaness are not same, you should use transportable tablespace across plateform, if they are same then you could use transportable database.
But most likely you cannot copy the file from AIX to Solaris and hope that'll work, you have to do some stuff especially on tablespaces containing rollback segment.
Please, read the doc I linked earlier, everything is in there, you have to convert the database on source or on target (it is up to you), but simply copy won't work.
Again, following that doc should remove the doubts and shows the way to take.

How to export and import from AIX to solaris a whole schema with different

how to export and import from AIX to solaris a whole schema with different character set
import done in US7ASCII character set and AL16UTF16 NCHAR character set
import server uses WE8ISO8859P1 character set (possible charset conversion)
Import terminated successfully with warnings.

The conversion between the character sets on the two servers are handled automatically. Export from one server will export the data given the character set defined on that server. Import into another server will import the data given the character set defined on that server, performing a conversion if necessary. This can be a problem when going from single-byte to a multi-byte character set. In your case, the warning is simply for your information, shoule be no real problem given the character sets you're using.

Migrating from AIX to Windows

Hi all,
We are considering in a SAP R/3 4.6c to ECC6 Upgrade, the option to migrate from AIX to Windows OS.
We heard that this option is not so usual.
- Could you tell us some feedback and recommendation about it?
- What kind of issues will we face?
Thanks for your help,
Chris

Usual? What is "usual"?
> - Could you tell us some feedback and recommendation about it?
> - What kind of issues will we face?
This depends heavily (if not only) on your environment. Some thoughts:
- Windows is little endian whereas AIX is big endian; this may affect connected software (non-SAP software, filesystem transfers etc.)
- additional software plus licenses may become necessary (cluster, backup...)
- do you have enough knowledge about Windows (+ its internals) as you have on AIX? Windows is not "easier" by default just because you have a mouse to click... (even if everyone thinks it is). Windows administration is totally different to any *nix (you may need to change scripts, consider updating regularly, think about problems you didn't have before (Virus, Worms) etc.)
- Hardware for Windows is usually cheaper than Power based hardware for AIX
- Windows licenses (+ CALs) must be bought
Just as another thought: Did you consider running Linux instead? You will use the same (cheaper) hardware with a more common environment (if you come from AIX)?

Oracle E-business Suite release 12.1.1 migration from AIX to OEL on OVM

Hi
We will be migrating our current Oracle E-business suite release 12.1.1 production environment from AIX to OEL using OVM. We are experienced in migrating from one platform to another on single box but this is the first time we will be using OVM.
We will be gratefull if somebody can provide us the right path to migrate to OVM, my understanding is:
1. Setup Hypervisor, install OVM guests OS using OVM templates
2. Install E-business suite environment using OVM templates
3. follow Export / import document to migrate E-business suite environment
need suggestions
Thank You
Shahrukh yasin

No. Do not use the EBS templates.
1. Get OVM up and running.
2. Install OEL guests.
3. Check requirements for running OEL on EBS 12.1. They are different for different version of OEL. There are several oracle support articles detailing the requirement from OEL4 thru OEL6. I personally would use OEL5.
4. Clone your DB and app tops and get them working.
5. When you get ready to cut, refresh your DB. You can use datapump but it will take some time depending on how much data you have. You may want to upgrade your DB. If you're running anything less than 11.2.0.3. If you do, then datapump is the best option. At least in my opinion. There are several issues with running 12.1 and 11.2.0.3. Make sure you address them. There are several support articles detailing them. Oracle 10 database isn't supported on OVM. 10 isn't offically supported at all anymore.
6. Rerun you clone scripts on your app tiers and reconfigure your app layout.
