Is migration possible from InformixDB (SUNOS) to Oracle (Linux) using OMWB?

Hi
Is it possible to migrate from Informix under SUN OS platform to Oracle under Linux platform using Oracle Migration work bench.
If so should it be offline capture or online capture? Please provide some detailed info.
Regards
Prabhu

Kgronau - Thanks for the detailed update.
Given below are the detailed information.
I am trying to migrate from Informix Dynamic server 7.3. I downloaded OMWB from the specified location, got the informix jar file and informix7 plug-in file. Completed the setup of OMWB wizard.
As I dont have password of informix user, I decided to go for offline capture.
Followed the steps provided in the user guide, copied the shell script from the omwb\offline_capture\Informix7\IDS7_DSML_SCRIPT.sh to Infomix Dynamic server. On executing shell script, it created 2 folders one sysmaster and informix database folder name with dat files in it.
The dat files in the database folder name are

Copied the 2 folders along with the .dat files to the folder omwb\offline_capture\Informix7\.
Then started OMWB wizard and opted for capture source -- > offline source model load --> On click of load button browsed to the folder omwb\offline_capture\Informix7\. It loaded all the files and showed me the status available, on click of next button and opting "No" for oracle model proceeded to Finish.
It completed loading with pop-up message as Loading Source Model Complete with Number of Errors 0 and Number of Warnings 0. Expanded the tree struture of Source Model and found Databases(1) with our informix db name. To my understanding it should show the number of components loaded with respect to each objects. But it displayed 0 at end of all the objects. For example Stored Procedure (0), Tables (0).
Could you please let me know if I have done some thing wrong or missed any steps.
Please let me know in case of any further info required.
Thanks

Faster way to migrate data from SQL Server to Oracle 10g

We have to migrate data from SQL Server to Oracle 10 g.
One particular table on SQL Server has records around 1.25 millions.
We tried moving data using DTS package, but looks it will take hours with current speed of 300 records/minute.
This table has TEXT column, which has XML strings stored. I am not sure, if this is the reason for slow migration.
Would you please suggest better options to migrate it faster?
Thanks in advance !!!

Have you tried Migration work bench?

How to migrate data from MS Access to Oracle???????

how to migrate data from MS Access to Oracle???????

You can use heterogeneous services (HS) connection to MS-Access from Oracle and still use the same PL/SQL (or even a single CTAS statement) or SQL to load directly to Oracle tables. It's transparent, quick and clean as opposed to writing complex control files.
You might have to set the ODBC connection to your Access database and add the details to Oracle listener.
Please let me know if you are not sure how to set up the connection.

How to insert data from *.dmp file to oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Develope

hi
i backup my database using PL/SQL developer and made *.dmp file
how to insert data from *.dmp file to oracle 11g using Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64
and how to make *.dmp file from sql*plus ?
thanks in advance

Pl/Sql developer has a config window, there you choose the exec to do the import/export.
Find it and his home version, it may be exp or expdp, the home version is the version of the client where the exp executable is.
Then use the same version of imp or impdp to execute the import, you do not need to use Oracle SQL Developer 2.1.1.64. If you want to use it, you must have the same version in the oracle home that exp/imp of sql developer use.

Migrating table from Sybase 12 to Oracle 10g

Hi ,
We have a situation where we have to migrate multiple Sybase databases to Oracle10g . These multiple database have same set of tables but different data in these tables on each sybase database ( data differ, based on location or region wise but same table name and structure). We want to migrate all these sybase database to Oracle 10g and in single database, which involves inserting data from multiple tables ( though they exist on different database in sybase) into single Oracle table.
for example if we have a table 'TESTK' that exist on five different sybase database but with different region wise data. I want to bring data from these five tables( Five as they exist in five differet sybase databases) and insert them into a single oracle table 'TESTK' .
Have anybody ever face such scenerio , what are all possible approch please suggest. Once data is inserted into oracle table i need to partitioned this oracle table as well.

It is not quite clear whether you have multiple tables (referencing each other) in multiple sybase databases or either one table or several non connected tables in multiple sybase databases.
In the first case of course your task is harder because you need to keep references and most probably you cannot blindly copy data from db 1, db 2 and unite them because they can have the same id's coming from different sources.
In the second case your task of course is much easier you can simply load all your data in Oracle tables either using some interim tables (if you need to filter out duplicates) or load data straight into target tables if you are sure you haven't duplicates.
Also another question in case 1 is whether intersection of your data is 0 rows i.e. all data are completely different in each source db or not.
So I'm sure you can find tools for blindly moving data from sybase to Oracle, although if you need to do some more complex filtering, computation or whatever you most probably need to write it yourself.
I'v done a few data conversion projects from one schema to another and as the requirements were quite complex the only possibility for us was to initiate a separate data conversion project and create conversion software (pl/sql packages manually).
You can find an overview of our approach in my article "Data migration from old to new application: an experience" here http://www.gplivna.eu/papers/legacy_app_migration.htm

Hello,
just migrating a DB2 database to Oracle 10g might be an easy task. The Oracle Migration Workbench is the tool for such a migration:

I have no idea about SAP, and that might complicate the picture. But there exist specialists for this task:

Issues Migrating Data from SQL Server to Oracle

Good morning, I'm currently trying to migrate data from a SQL Server 7 Database to Oracle 11GR1.
I've followed the steps outlined in the guide that's on OTN and for the most part it worked well, the Data Model Capture, transformation and generation worked fine but when i try to do an online data migration the parallel DataMove threads stop working, i have no errors at all on the migration log they just don't pickup new tables to migrate data.
After looking at the last tables they tried to migrate i noticed that this happens when the table has a text, timestamp or image column on Sql Server which translate to CLOB, RAW[50] and BLOB columns on Oracle.
I'm i missing something here or just flat out doing something wrong with these datatypes?
Oh btw i'm using SQL Developer 2.1 December Edition plus the jtds 1.2.5 drivers for SQL Server.

As you don't have an error message it is difficult to diagnose. You could perform the offline data load for those failiing tables and continue to use the online method for all others.
Another option would be to log a service request and to provide some demo data to analyse the root cause.

Migration map from DB2 MVS to oracle

Hi there,
I am looking for more details for OMWB,
if it could be used to migrate from DB2 MVS to oracle,
and especially concerned about the mapping procedure,
also concerned about volume and speed as for about millions of records /rows are involved.
How much the OMWB can help?
Please help.......:~
Thanks
and regards.

Hi there,
Thank you very much for your reply,
also,
can the OMWB for DB2/400 also works for DB2/MVS?
is there utility in OMWB exists for the mapping procedure?
thanks a lot.

Migrating data from one databaes to oracle?

is there any way to migrate my data from my old/previous database to oracle db.
ie. migrating data from one databaes to another.

If you are using Oracle 9i, look at external tables. Otherwise, dumping your data to text files and using SQL*Loader to load it into Oracle tables is a good option. There are various tools and utilities you might look into, including ODBC and migration toolkit. I prefer the SQL*Loader method for DBase, FoxPro, and Access.

Migrating Jobs from 4.0 to 4.2 using .atl?

Hi Experts
We recently migrated most of our BODS application from v4.0 to v4.2.
We used Repository manager to upgrade our repositories.
We still have one machine which is running BODS 4.0.
My question is that is it possible to migrate jobs from v4.0 to v4.2 without using repository manager i.e exporting these jobs as .atl or xml file and then importing them into BODS 4.2 enviornment.
Please let me know your views.
Thank you.

Hi Ankit,
Possible? yes.
Suggested? No.
Try to follow the best practice in order to avoid issues, because if you have a problem during the migration and you call SAP support, they will tell you to follow the standar steps, not the short cut ways.

Can't migrate date from old mbp to new mbp using maverick

Hi have a new MBP 15 and 1 old one 12 maths old bothe running maverick. Have been trying to migrate data from older MBP but they keep disconnecting as soon as the transfer is about to start.

Use the Setup Assistant during your initial setup of the new computer. You will need to connect your old computer to the new computer to do this. You can do this using a current Time Machine backup of the old computer if you can connect the backup drive to the new computer. See Target Disk Mode and About Windows Migration Assistant.
