Migrate 9i database to 11gR2

Hi All,
I want to migrate our 9i database to 11gR2 using export/import.
Is this supported process?
Before exporting "someone said" I need to :
export NLS_LANG to avoid database conversion error
export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8
Is this true?
Thanks a lot,

It's depends on what NLS_LANG has your database.If my database nls_lang is UTF8, and my target 11gr2 database is UTF8, do I still need to export nls_lang?
When is the proper time to use export NLS_LANG? I guess if my source db is not the same nls_lang as my target DB.
So I export the nls_lang of my source db or my target db?
Thanks a lot,If NLS_LANG same on source & destination, AFAIK there would be no issues in migration.
also check this note The correct NLS_LANG setting in Unix Environments [ID 264157.1]

Migrating from 10gR2 to 11gR2 using impdp with network_link fails

Hi,
I'm trying to migrate a database from 10gR2 (Novell SLES 10) to a new server (Novell SLES 11) with 11gR2. I created a database on the new system with all required users and tablespaces. Then I used impdp in 11g with a database link to the source database:
impdp system/pw@db NETWORK_LINK=X_SourceServer FULL=Y
This command fails immediately with ORA-39113: unable to determine database version. Even using the parameter VERSION=10.2.0 doesn't change the result.
The Oracle Upgrade Guide tells me that upgrading is possible from 10* to 11* and recommeds impdp and network link. Is the failure perhaps a bug in the NETWORK_LINK procedure? Should I better try expdp on the source and impdp on the target with a dumpfile as intermediate (the database ist rather big, so dealing with files across the network will take a lot of storage capacity)?
Has anyone tried this method with success?
Thanks
Friedhelm

This is due to an bug. The workaround is in the DOC
IMPDP From 10g TO 11g Gives ORA-39113, ORA-4052 & ORA-6544 PL/SQL: internal error, arguments: [55916] (Doc ID 1062428.1)

Migrate oracle database 9i to 11g

Hi,
i am in charge for migrating existing oracle 9i running on windows server 2003 to windows server 2008 with oracle 11g,, could you please advise me on the procedures needed to accomplish that.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Basem

Hi Basem,
It is advisable to upgrade latest oracle version 11.2.0.3
The minimum required 9i version to 11.2.0.3 is 9.2.0.8
In case db version is less than 9.2.0.8, upgrade db to 9.2.0.8 using patch number 4547809
11.2.0.3 patch set is a full release. There is no need to install 11.2.0.1 software
First refer the upgrade path from below document
Oracle Database Upgrade Path Reference List (Doc ID 730365.1)
Note 419550.1 : Different Upgrade Methods For Upgrading Your Database
Note 837570.1 : Complete Checklist for Manual Upgrades to 11gR2
Note 870814.1 : Complete checklist to upgrade the database to 11gR2 using DBUA

How can I determine what sites are being referenced within Central Admin Upgrade and Migration Manage Databases Upgrade Status?

When I go to Central Admin > Upgrade and Migration > Manage Databases Upgrade Status, I have 2 content databases which have the status:
Database is up to date, but some sites are not completely upgraded.
How can I determine which sites are not completely upgraded?

Manage Databases Upgrade Status will provide you all active and offline DB details, you can get same result
using below PowerShell cmdlet.
Get-SPDatabase and Get-SPContentDatabase will provide all active database/Content DB in Farm which include Service application db, central admin DB.
Get-SPDatabase | Format-Table Name, ID
Coming back to your question, if you find that there are some site are not completely upgraded then run below command and understand the cause if issue on specific DB.
Test-SPContentDatabase WSS_ContentDB_Name
If you find any missing file issue in DB then resolve these issue to upgrade content database.
(verify all customizations referenced within the content database are also installed in the web application. This cmdlet can be issued
against a content database currently attached to the farm, or a content database that is not connected to the farm )
Use the Upgrade-SPContentDatabase cmdlet
to resume a failed database upgrade or begin a build-to-build database upgrade against a SharePoint content database
Upgrade-SPContentDatabase WSS_Content

Migration oracle database 8.1.7.3 to 10.2.0.2

Hi,
I have a problem to migrate my database in 8.1.7.3 to 10.2.0.2 on different database server because the size fo this database is 2200Gigas.
With RMAN or copy it's not possible because the database version are different.
The solution is the export/import but it's probably too long.
Anybody have a solution

The other solution is "Database Upgrade". Here are the basic steps whci you can perform for this:
1) Install oracle 8i (with same patchset as the old one) and oracle 10g on new server
2) Restore the RMAN backup of your 8i database on new server and start the database using 8i home.
3) Apply 8.1.7.4 patch on 8i DB
4) Either run DBUA or use manual update to update you 8i DB to 10g
Here is the doc for Database Upgrade process:

How can i Migrate a database from DB2 to SQL Server 2008r2.

Hi Gurus,
Kindly help me letting me know the process for migrating the database from DB2 to SQL Server.
1) Is there any way to migrate a database from DB2 to SqlServer. (My assumption is we can not migrate database, if wrong correct me gurus).
2) Or we can only transfer data from that DB2 database to SQL Server (Using SSIS packages).
Please help me knowing the process to migrate the data from DB2 server to MSSQL server. Even am reading the documents available in the web.
Thanks in advance.. :)

Microsoft provide a migration assistant for DB2 to SQL Server:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=45296
SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) is a free supported tool from Microsoft that simplifies database migration process from DB2 to SQL Server and Azure SQL DB. SSMA automates all aspects of migration including migration assessment analysis, schema and
SQL statement conversion and data migration.
Hope that helps

Did you have a look at the dataguard docs,
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10700/standby.htm#i72073
Which has this mentioned quite clearly,
>
Oracle Data Guard is available only as a feature of Oracle Database Enterprise Edition. It is not available with Oracle Database Standard Edition.
Note:
It is possible to simulate a standby database environment with databases running Oracle Database Standard Edition. You can do this by manually transferring archived redo log files using an operating system copy utility or using custom scripts that periodically send archived redo log files from one database to the other. The consequence is that this configuration does not provide the ease-of-use, manageability, performance, and disaster-recovery capabilities available with Data Guard>
So if you want to have data guard, use Enterprise Edition.

How to sync primary and standby database in 11GR2 on linux

Hi ,
How to sync primary and standby database in 11GR2 on linux . Both my primay and standby are 3 node cluster each.
Can you please suggest a good link and brief steps .
Thanks

Are you trying to setup a new standby or sync an existing standby database?
OK I see it
"standby is behind the primary"
So you have a gap.
I would check both alert logs for a cause. You might find something like this
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor.Look for ORA-00308 and ORA-27037 and ORA-16055.
There's no sense fixing the gap unless the cause is fixed too.
Also check out this post from a few days ago its dealing with similar issues.

How Migrate MySql Database to Oracle

Hi...
I like Migrate MySql Database to Oracle, can help me?
Alexandre

I am trying to migrate a MySql to an Oracle database. I have not had any problem setting up the migration workbench.
What I am having a problem with is copying the source database to the Oracle DB - I have verified that the host name is correct - and the MySql is at the default 3306 port number.
What my problem is that the root user on the Linux server is not the user with DBA priviliges - instead a user called admin is the user on the linux box that has DBA priviliges.
Is my only way around trying to get the root user assigned DBA priviliges in order for this extract to succesfully happen - and if so, how do I go about assigining DBA priviliges on the MySql database to the root user?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

How can i migrate oracle database data to DB2 database

Hi
how can i migrate oracle database data to db2 database.
can anyone provide me solution.

BTW why do you want to migrate oracle database data to db2 database? Any specific project requirement like Parallel run with Oracle database (e.g data replication)? Or any other issues - Cost? Manageability? Availability? Business requirements?
Do you need to do a day-to-day data transfer or it is for permanent migration?

Migrating a database to ASM.

Hi all,
I have an environment for test purposes running 10.2.0.1.0 database on a Linux CentOS 4 box.
Now what I´m trying to accomplish is migrate this database to ASM.
Some adittional info:
$ ps -ef | grep pmon
oracle 4063 1 0 07:27 ? 00:00:00 ora_pmon_APPS102
502 6659 1 0 07:34 ? 00:00:00 asm_pmon_+ASM
$ lsnrctl status
Services Summary...
Service "+ASM" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "+ASM", status BLOCKED, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
Service "APPS102" has 1 instance(s).
Instance "APPS102", status READY, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
What I´m doing is to log into database through EM 10g console as sys user, then I go to the Administration page from where I can run the ASM migration wizard.
Then, after inform my SYS password and my Host account/Password, I´m facing below error:
Listener refused the connection with the following error: ORA-12528, TNS:listener: all appropriate instances are blocking new connections The Connection descriptor used by the client was: (description=(address=(host=VM_PEGASUS.localdomain)(protocol=tcp)(port=1521))(connect_data=(sid=+ASM)(server=dedicated)))
I´ve already stopped and started the listener and restarted both instances. Did not work, same situation.
Well, any help will be very appreciated.
Thanks,
Marcello M.

Hi,
Please see (How To Use Automatic Shared Memory Management (ASMM) In Oracle10g) Doc ID: Note:295626.1 on Oracle Metalink.
The main goal of this document is to show you how to put in place the ASMM facility introduced with Oracle10g, how to configure it, and also some examples on how to monitor its activity.

Use exp/imp to migrate a database

hi,
I want to migrate a database from window to hp unix,
Can I use the following way? thanks!
First,exp from windows:
1.exp the schema without data
2.exp the whole database with data
Second,imp to unix:
1.use dbca to create a database;
2.imp the schema
3 imp the data to all schema.

Yes. Just make sure that you do a binary file transfer between windows and unix system otherwise you will end up with a corrupted dump.
Even after transfer, just to make sure, you can have a trial import with indexfile and show options to check the integrity of the dump.
Probably you can merge steps 2 and 3 of import in 1 step.

Problems migrating a database from 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.1

Hello,
I'm migrating a database on a test machine. I've got the database on 10.2.0.4 and i've installed the 11.2.0.1 (Standard edition). The OS is windows server 2003 SP2
Using the migration assistant, after it does the analisis and shows the conclusions (before step 1), it throws a warning.
It sais that it can't update some components because it doesn't have proper actualization command files. These components are OLAP analytic workspace, OLAP catalog, Spatial and Oracle OLAP API.
I've tryed installing them from OUI, but it fails with an OUI-10150.
It can be that standard edition doesn't have that components? As long as I remember, I did a clean new installation of the 11.2 software, standard edition.
Thanks

Hi,
is your 10.2.0.4 version standard or enterprise?
I think you should install enterprise 11G R2 and then upgrade. because standard edition doesn't have all feature which are there in 10.2.0.4 so upgrade cannot happen.
