Informix SP conversion tool to Oracle

I've downloaded the Informix Stored Procedure conversion tool form Oracle web site for our Informix to Oracle conversion project. However, this product never worked and it seems Oracle tech. support does not provide support for this product. Has anyone ever used this product succesfully? If so, could you please share your experiences with us? Thank you very much in advance.
Ganesh.

There is an Informix plugin for the Oracle Migration Workbench currently under development, including stored procedure conversion. The stored procedure conversion will be better than the previous standalone tool but some manual conversion will still be required. There will be some support for the new Informix plugin available through the Oracle Migration Workbench channels, i.e.

  • Report Conversion Tool - problem with logging in table OBJ_G_MIGRATION

    Hello Community-Members,
    since several days I am searching different BO-Communities for a solution, but I didn't find any threats about my problem.
    I am new to BO XI R3.1 and I want to convert deski-reports with the report conversion tool.
    I tried it directly on the server-machine and all is ok (report is converted inclusive the logging in the audit-table OBJ_G_MIGRATION).
    When I try it on my client-machine, the conversion is made successfully, but there is no result in the audit-table.
    On the client-machine, I use the same connection like on the server machine and on both machines, I am logged on (in the report conversion tool) with the "Administrator"-user.
    Has anyone an idea? Could it be a problem of user-rights in the Oracle-DB?
    kind regards
    Guenny

    Hello Denis,
    thank you for your reply.
    From my client machine I can successfully test the connection to the Audit-DB. With non BO-Tools like "SQL Tools1.4.1" I can also connect to that DB.
    After your reply I have tested once again and I have found something else strange.
    If I convert a deski-report, and the conversion-status is "not converted", the Audit-DB is written (for example: error-text = "document cannot be read" / workaround = "remove protection password if set").
    But when I convert the same report together with an other report, which will result in "partially converted", nothing is written to the Audit-DB (same effect as when I convert only reports with status "partially convertet").
    regards

  • DDL Generation/Conversion Tools

    I am looking for a DDL generation tool, preferably command line, that can convert DDL of one RDBMS to another - say DDL of Oracle schema/table to MySQL/SQL Server & vice-versa. I have reviewed Oracle's SQL Developer - its DDL generation is one way MySQL to Oracle, SQL Server to Oracle etc.
    I would prefer a general-purpose DDL conversion tool/utility if one exists! Also, is there a way to use GGs DDLGEN for this ? I have explored this a bit but it seems all conversions are from Tandem DDL to DDL of various RDBMS.
    Thanks,
    Satish

    Satish,
    You can use DDLGEN to perform some basic DDL between systems but you'll likely need to make modifications to the .tpl file. Otherwise you may want to look into some other paid tools on the market.
    Good luck,

  • Informix Date Conversion Functions

    I am converting some Informix ESQL/C programs to Oracle Pro*C.
    I was wondering if there are any libraries out there that do the same thing as the Informix Date conversion functions(to avoid re writting them).
    Thank You
    null

    Hi ,
    Please try this one.
    if ITAB_DTL-date   <> ''.
                       CONCATENATE ITAB_DTL-date+6(2) '.'
                                   ITAB_DTL-date+4(2) '.'
                                   ITAB_DTL-date+0(4)
                              INTO ITAB_DTL-w_date.
    endif

  • Conversion tool question

    Again, I have a question regarding the conversion tool, BIPBatchConversion and it's output.
    In the original report there is a line like this
    Report Year : 2008
    where 'Report Year :' is boilerplate text and 2008 is the selected parameter when the report was run.
    In the converted .rtf file this has been implemented as a two column table like this :
    Column 1 in the table:
    Report Year : &F_year ( all boilerplate, no form fields )
    Column 2 in the table contains a form field with syntax <?P_YEAR?>
    The strange thing is that this form field has the default text, F_year ,which is the same that is used in the boilerplate text in column 1 !
    Will this work ?
    What is the meaning of the boilerplate text &F_year ?
    My expected behaviour would be :
    'Report Year :' as boilerplate text, directly followed by the form field containing the parameter P_Year
    Customer has several hundreds of Oracle Reports which we would like to autoconvert with minimum hands-on.
    If simple things like this is failing, we will not be able to use the conversion tool.....
    I have no access yet to customers database, so I can not verify if the converted report is working.
    Edited by: user792912 on Oct 23, 2009 4:35 AM

    Nonsense. You can use the conversion tool to get the converted rtf files. Touch up work is usually required no matter what.
    To answer your question, you will need to fix the substitution variables that are used as boiler plate text.
    Example - Reports6i bad practice: Personally, it's a sloppy practice to do that since a frame could be used and should be used
    Report Year:  &P_YEAR  <-Will not convert
    Fix in BIP:
    Report Year:  <?.//P_YEAR?>  I believe I answered your question, don't forget to give me the points.

  • Migration to CC&B: location of Conversion tool batches

    Hello,
    We are at the beginning of the process to migrate data into CC&B using ODI and CC&B Conversion Tool.
    We are on a DB 11gR2, using CC&B 2.3.1.
    After installing CC&B conversion tools, we are not able to find on the server the validation batches (for instance "VAL-PER" for validating persons)
    Qa) Is it normal ? If not, do you think our install is wrong ?
    Qb) Do we have to manually create the standard batches (VAL-PER.properties, calling CIPVPERB) ?
    I hope that my explanation is clear, and that someone will be able to answer.
    Thanks in advance,
    Olivier

    Hi Danbaker,
    you can find a lot of information in this blog: http://blogs.oracle.com/theshortenspot/
    In MDM 2.0.1 Oracle introduced new set of services for data synchronisation. You can find a description of these service
    in the MDM_Configuration_Guide in Chapter 15.
    I don't know if there are special tools available to migrate form legacy systems to MDM.
    From my point of view you have to create a set of XIA Inbound services to create all the necessary master data in you system.
    Advantage of this solution is, that you can also use this services to synchronize you system later in production mode.

  • Problem when execute report Conversion Tool XI 3.0 on a client

    Hi everyone,
    When I use Report Conversion Tool on a client (not on Webi Server Windows 2003) I have an error (a red cross appears) before the conversion.
    I believe that RCT can not open the document to migrate.
    All it's OK when I use RCT since the Webi Server.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Thank you for your prompt response.
    I have install all the client tool (even SDK, Query Web Service) except Assitant migration source de données, Gestionnaires Vues d'entreprise et Gestionnaire de traduction.
    I think I have a problem of rights on my Windows 2003 Server because in the log of conversion (C:Documents and SettingsUtilisateurLocal SettingsTempconversionUSER146731693logsD30860242.xml)
    the following lines are written :

    Hi Raghu,

  • Upgrade from ICM 6 to 7 (TR) -- Domain conversion tool / UMT

    Hi, we are currently upgrading from 6 to 7.0 and subsequently to 7.5 (TR, new hardware, new domain, new instance).  So far we've staged our W2k3 domain and all the other soon to be ICM servers.
    I'm currently trying to migrate the domain users and it tells me that I need to use the Domain Conversion Tool to go migrate the domain users from 6 to 7. (Staging guide chpter 4)
    I can't find any documentation on the Domain Conversion Tool, when I run the executable I can see the different triggers (below) but that's it.
    I've done an export and gotten a file but what next?
    Do I do a convert now?
    is the convert going to change my production database?
    I'm also reading that the Domain Conversion Tool was replaced by the UMT (for 7.0 to 7.+).
    Or should I now use the UMT and point it to my export file?
    Im afraid to run the convert and and messing up my Rogger sideA database?
    Has anybody use this tool?
    any tips and or documentation is appreciated.  Thanks
    D:\ciscoutils\domainCnvTool>domcvt
    The syntax of this command is:
    DomCvt.exe /DB:dbname /F:filename /M:mode [/OD:old domain name]
              [/ND:new domain name][/P:password]
       /DB:dbname           Specifies the database name to operate on (e.g. cust1_sideA)
       /F:filename          Specifies the full path of the file to import or export to
       /M:mode              Indicates export mode or convert mode
                             E  Export mode
                             C  Convert mode
    The following switches are only needed in Convert Mode:
       /OD:old domain name  Specifies the old domain name to convert from in NetBIOS form (e.g. MyDomain)
       /ND:new domain name  Specifies the new domain name to convert to in NetBIOS form (e.g. MyDomain) or DNS form (e.g. MyDomain.mycompany.com)
       /P:password          Specifies the default password to be set for all the users in the new domain
    Use quotation marks when there are spaces in the file name or password

    Hi,
    From the 7.x(y) Staging Guide:　
    Common Steps Required before Migrating any ICM ComponentOn the Domain Controllers:
    Confirm that Domain Controllers have been upgraded from NT Domain to Windows 2000Active DirectoryOn the CallRouter Server:
    　\RouterA\Router\CurrentVersion\Configuration\Global\DBMaintenance.
    Note:
    If moving a CICM with SideA and SideB disable the Configuration changes on bothsides.
    On the Logger server:　
    Copy the Domain Conversion Tool (DomCvt.exe) from the ICM 5.0(0) or ICM 6.0(0) Third-PartyTools CD as applicable (Domain Conversion Utility folder) onto the Logger server.
    Export the ICM user list using the DomCvt tool using the following command:
    domcvt /DB:<instancename>_sideA /F:c:\DomConvert\userlist.txt /M:E.
    And then lower down in the guide:
    On the Logger server:
    Step 18
    Run the Domain Conversion Tool to convert the ICM users exported earlier, using the followingcommand:
    domcvt /DB: <instance_name>_sideA /F:c:\DomConvert\userlist.txt /M:C /OD:<old_domain_netbios_name> /ND: <new_domain_netbios_name>Note: You can use the /p option to create a global password. If you do not use the /p option,the password is reset to null.
    I'm looking to run this myself shortly. The only caveat with this info is that its extracted from the section related to ICM5 and migration from multiple to single forest ... so possibly not the correct info. However, there's not much documentation on this as you've seen!

  • Oracle 8 backup tools in Oracle 8i?

    I already posted a thread about that, but I still have no answer...
    Is it possible to use the backup tools of Oracle 8 in Oracle 8i? instead of using RMAN (which is not very nice to use).
    I'd like to write a backup script with a visual tool, and if i have to use rman to execute it after, i don't mind.
    But are there any visual tools, or can i use those of Oracle 8?
    Thx.
    null

    Hi,
    I have not any experience in RMAN. I think, u can use oracle utilities export and imports. It helps u to take backup as well as restore.
    If u want to use in any projects, U can customise it.

    Have you installed the RCT on the server hosting the CMS service or via a client? I have had this problem myself and resolved it by installing / working directly on the server.
    Hope this helps...
