Is there CSM-ACE4710 config conversion tool?

We are replacing CSM modules with 4710 appliances. Is there a config conversion tool? Have not seen it in any Cisco documents.
Thanks a lot

There is one tool onboard of the ACE module.

Is there a CSM-to-ACE conversion tool?

Hi Sir,
Is there a tool to convert CSM config to ACE equivalent config?
I have a long CSM config that needs to be migrated to ACE. If there's such a conversion tool, it would be great.
Thank you.

ACE web interface has the tool. Besides you can go to this site

CSS/CSM to ACE conversion tool

Hi,
Are there any plans to release a standalone CSS/CSM to ACE config migration tool? (just like the CatOS to IOS tool)?
thanks,
Andrew.

Currently, there isn't one available yet, the conversion tool is embedded into the software image of the ACE. Not sure if there are plans to make it standalone, I have been looking for those answers as well.

6506 sup1a-ge2 to sup720 ios (native) config conversion tool

I am migrating from a sup 1a(hybrid mode) to a sup720 and in a class in December I heard that there was a conversion tool for the cat config to the ios config. If this is true - can you please let me know what it is and where can I get it?
thanks

Hi there,
It's online, you'll need a CCO-login and the link is here:
http://www.cisco.com/cgi-bin/Support/CatCfgConversion/catcfg_xlat.pl
Remember to check this link to understand the difference between CatOS and IOS commands:

CSM to ACE conversion Tool

Hi
Gilles made mention in a couple of posts about a tool on the ACE that can be accessed by enabling the http server and then connecting to the IP address of the ACE module.
Could somebody point me at some documentation relating to it because I can't seem to find anything.
Thanks
Mark

Hi,
Assuming the ACE module and appliance both have the same tool you can find the online user guide here:

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
Guenny

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!

Config Lab tool for Oracle CC&B Package

Hi,
Is there any configlab tool for Oracle CC&B package for confifuration management accross different environments. we can use VSS as version management for java codes and cobol codes in CC&B. But i am unable to identify any config lab tool for configuration management.
Guys please help me out in this.
Thanks and Regards
sayantan

Sayantan,
There is (unfortunately) no silver bullet for your requirement.
Here is a good blog article on the different options available.
https://blogs.oracle.com/theshortenspot/entry/configlab_versus_bundling_vers
Implementations use variations and combinations of the 3 tools that are available, coupled with 3rd party migration tools (like vss). The strategy for an implementation's development-to-production life cycle will vary based on a multitude of factors. Skill set of the IT shop, what tools they are used to, internal audit procedures, etc.
Hope the article provides some food for thought!

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,

Conversion Tool in batch mode

During a migration project from BO 6.5 to BO XI r2 SP3, the process of conversion to WID is decomposed in many steps (due project reason)
In folder <install dir>\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5\win32_x86\scripts there is a batch file called migbatch.bat.
With this file is possible to call conversion tool in batch mode.
One parameter is a XML file, but I can't found a description how to build it. I think it contains REP list.
Do anyone know the XML structure?

OK I'm still not clear on whether or not this is supported but I did find an old adapt where they attempted to add this functionality. Does this help?
2> Create a xml input file which contains the File names to be converted using the RCT UI mode.
3> Now run the batchmode in the command line using the following syntax.
Go to C:\Program Files\BusinessObjects\BusinessObJects Enterprise115\win_32x86\scripts.
Syntax usage:
Usage:
-h[ost]: cms name (by default hostname is used)
-a[uthentication]: secEnterprise(default), secLDAP, secWinAD, secWindowsNT
-u[ser] : user name
-p[assword]: user password(optional)
-x[ml]: xml file
-l[og]: log file
-t[race]: yes, no(default)
4> Check the log files after conversion (chk the log entry for the "Not Converted" reports)

Conversion tool, UTF-8

I am sooo confused about a problem regarding the BIPBatchConversion tool.
The problem occurs because of the swedish characters Å, Ä and Ö
If the report contains any of these characters, the conversion tool fails to create the .xdo file.
Or rather, the .xdo file is created but size is 0.
I think I have tracked the problem to the data template file, xx_template.xml, that was created by the conversion tool.
I guess this file is used when creating the .xdo file.
And, the problem is that the data template file has encoding="UTF-8".
This means I can not even open the template file in my XML editor.
It says :
'The XML page cannot be opened. An invalid character was found in text content....'
And the invalid character is, of course, the Å, Ä or Ö
There are two ways I can solve this, to be able to open the file with my XML editor :
A. Open the file with Notepad and change the XML declaration to encoding="ISO-8859-1"
B. Open the file with Notepad and chose Save As, and change Encoding from ANSI to UTF-8.
After any of these manual steps I am able to open the data template file with my XML editor.
But the BIPBatchConversion tool does not allow med to stop and do this change, it does everything in one command.
So, how can I get to the final step, which is to create the .xdo file ?
Is there another command I can use, to create the .xdo file ?
Or is there a way to make the data template file be created with the declaration encoding="ISO-8859-1' when I run the BIPBatchCoversion command ?
Or maybe there is a way to make the data template file be encoded with UTF-8 instead of ANSI ( can I set this in Windows XP ? )
I hope someone can help me on this one.

Sorry, no good example code to give, but here's the basics.
When you create an InputStreamReader to read your file, it optionally takes an encoding scheme, ie. in your case "Big5_HKSCS".
This means that as you read your source file, it performs the proper conversion to Unicode. ( All Java strings are in Unicode )
When you want to write out that string, using UTF8, again look at the
extra parameter in OutputStreamWriter, and pass in "UTF8"
Note : You must use the "International" version of the JRE to obtain the full list of encoding schemes. If you use the US version, there's only about 8 basic encoding schemes out of the possible 150 or so.

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.

Conversion tool BO XI3 crashed with certain files without any reason

Dear all,
While using the conversion tool BO XI 3 to convert reports from deski to webi, I am facing some issue.
Without any reason, any warning and any explanations afterwards, the conversion tool just close.
And i dot not know why and how I can resolve this.
It only happens to some of my reports.
I opened them under BO XI 3 deski to have a look but they are working fine.
Did anyone had this kind of problem ?
Thank you,
Audrey

Yes indeed, but I have another issue (I posted another subject here) as for BO XI 3 deski:
http://scn.sap.com/thread/3591504
I can not open the deski files with problems because the folder is empty when trying to import from the CMS. It is like there are no documents at all whereas when I open the conversion tool they are all here (around 250).
It is strange because as for Webi 3 I can access to CMS and import documents without any problems.
