Migrate from db2/400 (V5R2) to Oracle

Greetings!
We are looking at helping a customer migrate their DB2/400 (V5R2M0) database to Oracle (planned for 10gR2).
I see there is a Migration Workbench offering for the lower revisions (v4r3) as well as for DB2/UDB, however nothing for V5R2M0.
There are over 1500 files (tables) to convert so we don't want to have to do a dump & load.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!!

Jim,
I work for a group in Oracle Server Technologies that focuses on legacy (mainframe and midrange) modernization. There are three options from Oracle:
1. Oracle Data Integrator (was Sunopsis) - This product is completely written in Java so it can even run on the iSeries/AS400. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/oracle-data-integrator/index.html
2. Oracle ransparent Gateway for DB2/400 - Can execute qeuries directly against DB2 to migration the data. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/gateways/tg4db2400.htm
3. OWB (Oracle Warehouse Builder) - This is an ETL offering from Oracle. Two options for moving the data FTP (and load the flat files) or if you have an ODBC driver on the iSeries can use this with OWB. http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/index.html
Hope this helps. My team is hear to help with legacy modernizations so don't hestitate to contact me at [email protected]

Hi VKMP,
As well as reading the documentation thoroughly the following note available in My Oracle Support may be useful -
Problem To Migrate Table With Table Type P From DB/AS400 With OMWB (Doc ID 466271.1)
as OMWB does not support migrating physical files.

Migration from DB2 on mainframe z/os, os/390

Hello,
we are planning to perform a migration from DB2 on a mainframe towards Oracle. I've read about the Oracle Migration Workbench I didn't find anything that states that a migration from mainframe can be performed with the Migration Workbench.
We only want to migrate the DB2 tables towards a staging environment (in Oracle), so we only need to migrate the table definitions with the data.
Can this be done with the migration workbench?

Arno,
The Migration Worklbench does not support migration from DB2 on the mainframe currently. support for this is under development. If you would like access to this you need to get in contact with your local Oracle account team to progress.
If all you are interested is tables/data this can be achieved via our gateway products.
We also have gateway support for DB2 natively. You will find more information about that here:

Migration from SQL SERVER 2008 to Oracle 10g issues.

Hi ,
I'm trying to migrate from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 10g and I end up with some issues that I wanted to ask some info about it.
First, I was following a tutorial
http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/db/hol08/sqldev_migration/mssqlserver/migrate_microsoft_sqlserver_otn.htm
and and in the last version of Oracle SQL developer I downloaded, I didn't find the Load Database Capture Script Output option.
My first question is how can I either add this option or is there a new way to load the capture script ?
Then I use the migration wizard and after following everything, I had the migration complete message from the application.
When I tried to open my connectionss, it tells me version 11.2 is required. Does that mean that Oracle SQL developper 3 only
do the migration for oracle 11g? And if I tried the previous versions, it doesn't support SQL server 2008.
What do I do in this case ?
Thanks !

Thank you for your reply.
After using the wizard and made the offline migration script, in the Migration projects window I made a move data to the oracle connection I previously made and after when I tried to reopen the connection, I couldn't.
Well I didn't retry it yet to see if I'll have the same behavior but basically this is what I think I did. When I tried to open the connection I made, it says, Oracle 11.2 is required.
Now, I just generate target from the convert model and it says migration complete but how do I test it and I do I go to oracle and see change ?
Do I had to create a special user in SQL Server to log to it first ? How do I logon to it ?

Migration from Informix 9.4 to Oracle 10g

We have to perform a migration from Informix 9.4 to Oracle 10g. Many tables, many data and many stored procs.
We use the Online mode and the imports finish with any errors, but it has not recovered any stored procedures or we can't view the Informix Stored Procedures in the Source Model in the workbench.
In the importation log appears as no found procedures, but under owner informix are all procedures.
What we can do?

In the 10.1.0.4 version of the workbench we create an informix user who will have all the stored procedures.
If you want these migrated as another user you can right click on the user in the oracle model and rename it for a start.
If this is a large migration, I would recommend the following.
1. generate the ddl for the oracle database.
2. for the users, that will be created, move the objects to the users that you want these in.
3. Make sure that the privileges that a particular user has is appropriate to use the data and execute the stored procedures if necessary.
This tool is not just a one shot deal.. It will bring the informix db over to Oracle, but you need to verify the structure and the logic of the stored procedures as being correct.

Data length problem migrating from sql server 7 to oracle 8i

I just migrated SQL Server 7 database to Oracle 8i db and everything seemed to have ran ok except that in my newly created oracle database, the field size is doubled. For instance a field with nvarchar(4) in sql server would convert to varchar2(8). Has anyone ran into this problem and also does anyone know how to fix it? Thank you so much.

Hi Roberto,
You cannot use Workbench 1.2.2 to migrate from SQL Server 7 to
Oracle 8.
However, the good news is that we have a new verion of the
workbench that will have a plugin that can migrate from SQL
Server 7.0 to Oracle8.
A beta version will be downloadable from this web-site in approx
one week. Eventhough this version is a beta version, it has
undergone some rigourous testing and is very close to production.

Migrating From Sql Server 2005 to Oracle (Uniqueidentifier Issue)

If i want to migrate from SQL SERVER 2005 to Oracle, How Oracle will deal with my primary key columns in almost all tables having datatype of UNIQUEIDENTIFIER ???
is there any concept of uniqueidentifier in Oracle same as in SQL SERVER ????

When you migrate your SP's from SQL Server to Oracle the parser basically does 'as good a job as it can' to migrate them.
Luckily, using SQL Developer you are able to look at the source SP and converted SP in windows next to each other and see what oracle has done to them.
You can also paste your SQL Server code into a window and ask SQL Developer to translate it to oracle for you. Use the 'Translation Scratch Editor' on the migration menu if this is something that interests you. I was told that the parser used by the Translation Scratch Editor is different to the parser used when migrating the whole database.

Data Migration from MS Excel Sheet to Oracle 9i Database

Can anyone please help me to perform a data migration from MS excel sheet to Oracle 9i Database. I have an excel sheet from which i need to move data to the database. One of the columns in the sheet posseses multiple new line characters, and which causes a problem while migrating data with the help of SQL Loader. I would like to know whether any utility is available to migrate data directly from MS Excel sheet to the database, or it would he really helpfull for me , if anyone provide me with an alternate solution.

I think Christian's suggestion will work for easily and quickly.
1) create table link of Oracle target table in MS Office's ACCESS thru ODBC;
2) from Access screen, you may easily dump the excel data into the linked table.
This is very easy and feasible ways. Don't bother to find other ways. The other ways will need you to clear the unwanted carriage return signs first.

Migration from Interbase 7.0 to Oracle 9i

Hi,
Does anyone have any documents/tool on migration from interbase 7.0 to Oracle 9i.
Thanks,
Divyesh

Richard,
To connect to an Informix Dynamic Server, you must copy the ifxjdbc.jar Informix Dynamic Server JDBC driver file to the %ORACLE_HOME%\Omwb\drivers directory before running the Migration Workbench. Otherwise, when you attempt to capture a Migration Workbench database, you receive the following error message:
No Suitable Driver Found.
If you receive this error message, copy the ifxjdbc.jar file to the %ORACLE_HOME%\Omwb\drivers directory, then restart the Migration Workbench.
If this ok and you still get the error message check paths in your %ORACLE_HOME%\Omwb\bin\omwb.bat.
I hope it helps you.

Migrate from DB2 7 to Oracle 10G(R1)

Hi, all.
I have a big DB2 db. When Oracle and DB2 set up on different computers, OMWB works good. When i install Oracle and DB2 on one system UDB7 driver not work - on step "Source Database details", when i enter user ID/pass and database name, then do nothing :(.
How explane it?
User information correct. DB2 ODBC driver - worked...
Can you help me?

Are you missing a zip file, or are using an unsupported by omwb version of the zip file/driver?
That is what is suggested by a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError found message from Java.
It is also possible, but less likely, that some corporate anti-virus/security software has changed the software. There was a post concerning that possibility recently months ago. [search for www.trend.com on this forum: Urgent help-Unable to login into OMWB
Posted: Jan 30, 2007 11:23 PM]
From the User Guide:
Before Migrating From IBM DB2 UDB
To configure an IBM DB2 UDB database for migration:
1.
Install the IBM DB2 UDB Client software on the same system as Migration Workbench.
This automatically installs the IBM DB2 UDB JDBC driver contained in the db2java.zip file.
Note:
Migration Workbench supports the use of either the JDBC 1.2 or JDBC 2.0 compliant IBM DB2 UDB JDBC driver.
2.
Copy the db2java.zip file to the following directory:
OMWB_install_dir/Omwb/drivers
3.
Make sure that you can login to the IBM DB2 UDB database with a user name that has database administrator privileges.
