Hi,
Regarding to connect from Oracle to DB2:
Is this link helpful? http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/gateways.102/b16222/toc.htm
No, as this link is for installing the software on IBM iSeries OS/400
And from where can i download the gateway software?Have a look at this thread.
Transparent Gateway software download

Connect to DB2 from oracle 11g on windows 2008 server

Hi Folks,
I want to conenct to DB2 from oracle 11g using DB link.
DB2 :
user : db2user
pwd : db2pwd
database : db2database (OSBLDEV)
able to connect to db2 server (installed on machine M1) using db2 client with above details from machine M2 (where oracle is installed).
Oracle :
user : orauser
pwd : orapwd
host : orahost
port : 1521
service : oraservice
able to connect to oracle server using oracle sql developer with above details on Machine M2 (windows 2008 server)
when i execute the query with database link
select row_id from siebel.s_org_ext@OSBLDEV;
I get the message : ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified.
could you pls check and let me know whether the below enteries are correct or not.
Pls share if you have step by step connectivity from DB2 to oracle using DB link.
1. I have created the Data source for DB2 - test successful
create database link OSBLDEV
connect to "db2user"
identified by "ldb2pwd"
using 'OSBLDEV';
1. I have made the following entry in E:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\hs\admin\initosbldev.ora
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = OSBLDEV

2. I have modifed the listener and removed the entry - hsodbc
3. stop and start the listener.
still can't see the service entry in listener status.

Connecting db2 from oracle

hi,
i)what is the cwbcfg program to be executed you have mentioned.
ii) I executed caths.sql
iii) In tnsnames.ora how to specify the dsn that you create for db2 database.
for example if I have created a dsn for db2 naming it kishore_dsn, how do i specify that in tnsnames.ora file.
and by what sid is the iniths_sid.ora to be created. is it the dsn you create for db2 database. for ex. if dsn name is kishore_dsn, should the file be initkishore_dsn.ora, or it should be the name of local oracle database service.

IBM DB2 to Oracle Database Migration Using SQL Developer

Hi,
We are doing migration of the whole database from IBM DB2 8.2 which is running in WINDOWS to Oracle 11g Database in LINUX.
As part of pre-requisites we have installed the Oracle SQL Developer 4.0.1 (4.0.1.14.48) in Linux Server with JDK 1.7. Also Established a connection with Oracle Database.
Questions:
1) How can we enable the Third Party Database Connectivity in SQL Developer?
I have copied the files db2jcc.jar and db2jcc_license_cu.jar from the IBM DB2 (Windows) to Oracle (Linux)
2) Will these JAR files are universal drivers? will these jar files will support in Linux platform?
3) I got a DB2 full privileged schema name "assistdba", Shall i create a new user with the same name "assistdba" in the Oracle Database & grant DBA Privillege? (This is for Repository Creation)
4) We have around 35GB of data in DB2, shall i proceed with ONLINE CAPTURE during the migration?
5) Do you have any approx. estimation of Time to migrate a 35 GB of data?
6) In-case of any issue during the migration activity, shall i get an support from Oracle Team (We have a Valid Support ID)?
7) What are all the necessary Test Cases to confirm the status of VALID Migration?
Request you to share the relevant metalink documents!!!
Kindly guide me in-order to go-ahead with the successful migration.
Thanks in Advance!!!

Hi Klaus,
Continued with the above posts - Now we are doing another database migration from IBM DB2 to Oracle, which is very less of data (Eg: 20 Tables & 22 Indexes).
As like previous database migration, we have done the pre-requirement steps.

We have seen only "Missing" in the chart, also we couldn't have any option to trace it in Log file.
Only after the status is VALID, we can proceed with the Translation & Migration PHASE.
Kindly help us how to approach this issue now.
Thanks

For DB2 to Oracle conversion best practices

My company is enhancing existing application adding newly J2ee web interface and database as DB2.I am new to J2EE. In future if we want to migrate my database to Oracle,which are the best things to do it now.
Which J2EE framework is good in respecte JDBC connectivity and future migration of DB2 to Oracle? (Minimal changes at Migration Time)
It is medium size application with 5000 users.Which are other best practises to follow in development keeping the migration in Mind. Thanks..

Yes, you should login as system, create a user, appowner, or what ever you call it, and assign that user a default tablespace of 'USERS' or whatever tablespace you decide. Then, grant that user all the privileges to create objects, i.e., create table, create procedure, create synonym, etc, etc.
Then, logout as system, login as appowner, and do all your object creation from there.
A user is a set of credentials that allow you access to the system. It defines your identity and your privileges and authority to do various things. A schema is the set of objects owned by a particular user. As soon as a user owns at least one object, that implicitly defines his schema. It's not possible for a user to own or control multiple schemas. If you want multiple schemas, that's fine, but you'll need multiple users, and each user will manage his own schema.
Hope that's clear,
-Mark
PS I strongly suggest you review the Concepts Guide, it really is quite good. It can be found here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10713/toc.htm

Hi Kamran,
I just looked up bug # 54610 in Cyber Support and it is not there yet, so a
question.
In your opinion, does this effect all databases? We are using DB2 and
considering going to 3.5 . Are we going to see the same problems you have
had with Oracle?

No gateway log information generated even with setting trave level to DEBUG indcates that the listener cannot start the gateway process.
Please check the listener.log for details on the failure. Secondly, what kind of Linux is it? 32- or 64-bit?

How Do I.... DB2 To Oracle Daily Loads

I need to upload DB2/AS400 data daily. This would be a piece of cake in SQL Server using DTS. But I don't know where to start in the Oracle world.
I DONT want to export files daily from DB2 side & then FTP them to the Oracle/Sun box; it's been tried & there are too many failure points. Also, that would require tracking dozens of files (one for each query).
I see some threads about database links using ODBC, but I'm on a Sun box. Is it still possible? Are there other connectivity options?
Thanks much in advance

John,
DB2 to Oracle on a daily basis has different options, each with their own advantages/disadvantages:
- Use Oracle's transparent gateways, that make the DB2 database look like an Oracle database to your Oracle database. Biggest pro: good performance. Biggest con: transparent gateways are seperately priced options on the database.
- Use ODBC to connect Oracle to DB2. Biggest pro: free at the Oracle side. Biggest 2 cons: relatively slow performances and manual effort to set it up.
- Generate files from DB2 and load those into Oracle. Biggest pro: simple. Biggest 2 cons: requires at least one more staging step, causing slower performance and is more difficult to manage.
Hope this helps,
Mark.

DB2 to Oracle conversion using SQL Developer Migration Wizard - different schemas

I am performing a conversion between DB2 to Oracle 11 XE, using the SQL Developer Migration Wizard. Specifically I am trying to migrate the DB2User schema over to Oracle.
Using the migration wizard, when I pick the Oracle target connection to be the same schema ( DB2User schema ) the migration is successful and all data is converted.
However if I pick a different Oracle target connection ( say OracleUser ) , I run into issues.
Firstly , the table schema is not created. When I check the project output directory, the .out file has the following errors:
   CREATE USER DB2User IDENTIFIED BY DB2User DEFAULT TABLESPACE USERS TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP
        SQL Error: ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
        01031. 00000 - "insufficient privileges"
    connect DB2User/DB2User
    Error report:
    Connection Failed
    Commit
    Connection created by CONNECT script command disconnected
I worked around this by manually executing the .sql in the project output directory using the OracleUser id in the new DB.
Then I continue with the migration wizard and perform the Move Data step.
Now - the message appears as succuessful, however, when I review the Migrationlog.xml file, i see errors as follows:
<level>SEVERE</level>
<class>oracle.dbtools.migration.workbench.core.logging.MigrationLogUtil</class>

I think what is happening is that the wizard is attempting to perform the 'move data' process using the DB2User id.
How do I tell the wizard that the target schema is different than my source schema.
My requirement is that I need to be able to migrate the DB2User schema to different schemas in the same Oracle database
( since we will have multiple test environments under the same database ) .
Thanks in advance .

Perhaps the following from the SQL Developer documentation is helpful for you:
Command-Line Interface for Migration
As an alternative to using the SQL Developer graphical interface for migration operations, you can use the migration batch file (Windows) or shell script (Linux) on the operating system command line. These files are located in the sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin folder or sqldeveloper/sqldeveloper/bin directory under the location where you installed SQL Developer.
migration.bat or migration.sh accepts these commands: capture, convert, datamove, delcaptured, delconn, delconverted, driver, generate, guide, help, idmap, info, init, lscaptured, lsconn, lsconverted, mkconn, qm, runsql, and scan. For information about the syntax and options, start by running migration without any parameters at the system command prompt. For example:
C:\Program Files\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin>migration
You can use the -help option for information about one or more actions. For the most detailed information, including some examples, use the -help=guide option. For example:
C:\Program Files\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin>migration -help=guide

Oracle Connection Pool failure in COM+

I am having some trouble trying to get a specific database to work with an application that makes use of a COM+ Application. When we point the application at the UAT database everything seems fine, but when we point it to the production database after a few successful calls it ends up failing at the COM+ application recycles. The event viewer provides the following information:
Event Type:     Error

Not being an expert in Oracle, I have been able to dig up a little bit of information that might be of use ...
a) Our tnsnames.ora indicates that the connections are to be DEDICATED and running Toad bares this out -- dllhost ends up with a single connection.
b) most of the database initial set of parameters seem to be very similar. The only difference I noticed was that the archive log mode and db_cache_advice are ON for production.
c) We have little control over how the connection strings are being created internally in this COM+ application, but however they are created it works for UAT and doesn't for PROD.
d) When we go into our web application and hit a page that makes use of the COM+ component to render, it will work the first time but when I do a simple browser refresh it will usually fail on the 2nd or 3rd time. Almost like it is trying to expand the connection pool size and the oracle server is throwing up.
If I didn't mention earlier the two database instances run on different servers but the application server is exactly the same. We only change the alias we are using for the database (both are defined in tnsnames) and the password used to make its connection.
Does anyone have any clues on this one? I am really spinning my wheels trying to figure out what could cause this type of situation. Anything at all would be very helpful.

It appeared to us that the problem was with the Oracle server and that it might have been failing when we were trying to expand our application connection pool size or basically obtain more connections.
The biggest indicator of this is that we run the same application code against two different databases and one works and one does not work. Having said this, I suppose the problem could be rooted in a data error instead of an oracle server error ...
Is there a specific trace file on the oracle server that would help me point to any error that is truly an oracle server error? Sorry I am very new to Oracle.

Oracle Connection Manager

Hi,
i'm having a problem configuring Oracle Connection Manager. It does start the instance of connection manager
Summary of my environment is
10g Application server and infrastructure machine OS: Windows 2003
9i Database Server: Windows 2003
Client : Java Applet
JDBC driver type : THIN
Installed: 10g Infra first and then 10g midiier(portal and wireless) in seperate oracle homes on the same machine. Eveything is up and running as i was able to login seperately in infra and midtier enterprise managers.
Final Goal : Trying to connect to an Oracle 9i database on a differnt machine than the appserver using an applet, thin drivers and Oracle Connection Manager
Problem : Connection manager instance not started however cmanADMIn service started.
CMCTL:CMAN_oracle9-app> administer cmanOracleAS
Current instance cmanOracleAS is not yet started
Connections refer to (address=(protocol=tcp)(host=10.10.1.101)(port=1610)).
The command completed successfully.
CMCTL:cmanOracleAS> startup
Service Oracleoracle_infraCMAdmincmanOracleAS already running.
TNS-04012: Unable to start Oracle Connection Manager instance.
CMCTL:cmanOracleAS>
Steps done to configure Oracle Connection manager
1. Copied 4 .exe (CMADMIN, CMCTL,CMGW,CMMIGR) files to bin folder of Appserver or midtier's main ORACLE_HOME/BIN folder.
2) created a cman.ora file and copied in appservers /NETWORK/ADMIN directory
3) On cammand prompt type CMCTL...ADMINISTER cman_OracleAS where cman_OracleAS is the name of cman instance used in cman.ora file.
My cman.ora file is as follows

Forgot to mention that
cmanOracleAS.log file i.e connection manger log file is as follows.
It says does not currently know of service 'cmon' but i have the rule which
allows cmctl to conect locally with 127.0.0.1 .

PHP & ORACLE Connectivity on Solaris

Hi all,
You can check this site for PHP and Oracle connection tutorial. It is intended to installing Apache and PHP with Oracle support and connecting and using Oracle via PHP.
Page URL :
http://gokmen.selcuk.edu.tr/tutor/orasol/ociphp.php
Additionally, You will see an alternative way escaping from ORA-12154 and ORA-12545 errors while Oracle connection via PHP.
Hope you find useful...
