Migrate SAP in AS400 to Oracle

Hi all,
there is a customer with SAP in AS400 and they are thinking in migrate the SAP database from AS400 to Oracle
but they are interested in other customer experiences with this kind of migration.
Does anyone know customer examples?
Thanks in advance

Thanks Pavan,
But the link is not active anymore Can you please share me the new location or the ones that you have downloaded already? Thanks
[code]
Step 1: Download all required software and documentation
I started out by downloading the Oracle Migration Workbench from OTN as well as the MySQL 4.0 plugin. The Reference Guide on Windows is here as well as the Release Notes. All Migration Workbench Documentation. I had to download the MySQL Connector/J 3.0.x driver as well (from MySQL’s Site).
[/code]
I can not understand why the migration workbench seems not updated anymore? Its version is pegged at 10g? Is there new for from this? Thanks

Can we migrate SAP 40B release system from windows NT to windows 2003.

Hi,
We want to know can we migrate SAP 40B release system from windows NT to windows 2003 server; if yes, please share with us the OS migration document.
Regards,
R Mav

> Our SAP 4 O B is on windows NT and oracle version is 8.0.5 and wants to do OS migration from NT to win. 2003.
Neither Oracle 8.0 nor 8i were releases on Windows 2003, they won't work and are not released.
So I'm afraid the only way you can go is Windows 2000.

SAP over Infomrix to oracle

Hi all
Dou you know anything about this subject?

This forum doesn't cover SAP Migrations. SAP migrations can only be done using SAP tools, not the Oracle Migration Workbench. Try www.oracle.com and search for SAP Migration. There is an Oracle Support Services SAP Centre of Excellence.

Migrating SAP products from a non-SQL Server platform to a SQL Server 2005

Hi,
I have another question too.
Can someone pls provide me the Considerations for Migrating SAP products from a non-SQL Server platform to a SQL Server 2005 platform?
More specifically from Oracle to SQL 2005.
Regards
Abhi

Hello
You need to perform an OSDB migration.
This will involve exporting your SAP system into a DB neutral format and then reloading this into an SQL 2005 SAP system.
Please review http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration
I recommend you review the homo/heterogeneous system copy guide for your SAP release.
Thanks

Insert /delete data from SAP Z table to Oracle table and opposite

Hi,
Can u help me write this FM from the SAP side?
So, I have two tables ZTABLE in SAP and Oracle table ORAC.
Let's put three columns in each of them, for example
TEL1
TEL2
ADRESS
NAME
where TEL field is primary from ZTABLE to ORAC...
(in FM there shoud be abap code for writing data in ZTABLE after we press some pushbutton made in sap screen painter..)
for example, when we write new record in ZTABLE
00
112233
Street 4
Name1
this data shoud be inserted in Oracle table ORAC.
when we write new record in Oracle table for example
01
445566
New Street
Name2
this data shoud be inserted in ZTABLE.
Field TEL1 can be only of two values 01 or 02, other combination is not valid...
I must have all data from Oracle table ORAC in ZTABLE and opposite.
It should be the same scenario for DELETE...
And this communication should be online between sap and table in oracle database...
Can u help me from sap side? and give idea how to configure on oracle side??
Thanks a lot,
Nihad

I dont know if we can directly connect to a oracle database ( wait for the answers from others on this )
but in XI we have the JDBC adaptor to insert and retrieve data.
so for the outbound from SAP the flow can be something like this (with XI in landscape):
1) You have a screen to maintain a new entry / delete an entry
2) On save , this record gets saved or deleted from the Ztable in SAP
3)) In the same screen you can call a proxy class-method (generated using SPROXY transaction ) to send the record to XI.
4) XI to format it and insert into the oracle table

TIME_OUT in SAP when accessing external Oracle table thru native SQL

Hi,
I have a problem in one of my native SQL statement. It takes a long time accessing the table considering that the number of records to be retrieved is only small.
Something happened on the Oracle system. But, stilll to be confirmed. Before, there wasn't any issue. Looking further, I found that when the value in the where clause equated is a literal (meaning the value is not declared in DATA or CONSTANTS in the ABAP Program)
Example
1.
EXEC.
WHERE FIELD = '1'
ENDEXEC.
instead of
2.
CONSTANTS: c_1 value '1'.
EXEC.
WHERE FIELD = c_1
ENDEXEC.
i found that when the way of coding is same as Example 1, a time-out error occurs. But when in Example 2, no issue.
Can someone explain this? is their something that could affect SAP with respect to Oracle configuration?
Thanks!

I wonder if you could share the outline of your code to access an external oracle database. I've just been given the assignment to do just that, but don't know where to start.
thx,
Mike DeGuire

Getting parsing SP error while migrating SQL Sever 7 to Oracle 8.1.7

Hello,
I migrate SQL Sever 7 database to Oracle 8.1.7 using latest
Migration Workbench + sqlsever7 plugin.
I captured the source database and created Oracle model but some
of straight forward enough stored procuderes didn't pass. I try
manually correct them but still receive the following error
message:' java.lang.StringIndexOutOfBoundsException:string index
out of range:0 ViewLog Window' I check log - not much help
I check all names - non of the exceeds 30 char.
Although, I'm not sure of following code:
@sqlstr='select....'
@sqlstr=@sqlstr+'select...'
exec @sqlstr
Could it be a cause?
Thanks in advance

SAP SRM Prod with Oracle DB and AIX 5.3 Performance Issue.

Hi Basis Gurus,
Today my SAP PRD system all of a sudden was running slow and users had difficulties executing TCodes as it took minutes before the screen appeared.My system is SAP SRM 4.00, Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 and AIX 5.3.
From Basis point of view , we noticed that all the work process were hanged due to RFCs' occupying it.Couldnt investigate further on the system as we needed to restart asap because users needed to log on. A quick check on SICK shows no errors.What we managed to find out is that we needed to check this parameter below and set it accordingly:-
rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp:-
Definition
Number of work processes kept free for other users.
Use
This parameter is used to reserve a number of dialog work processes for dialog mode. It prevents parallel RFCs from occupying all the processes.
The parameter rdisp/wp_no_dia specifies the absolute number of dialog work processes.
Unit: number of dialog work processes
Default value: 1
Example
If 10 dialog work processes are configured for the instance (rdisp/wp_no_dia = 10) and the parameter rdisp/rfc_min_wait_dia_wp = 3 is set, parallel RFCs can occupy a maximun of 7 dialog work processes. Three dialog work processes always remain free for dialog mode.
There are 20 DIA processes in our system, perhaps reserving a minimum of about 5 work processes for DIA users will be useful via the parameter.
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
When we went for a restart of the system we encountered another issue. Steps to the issue are as below:-
1) Did a proper shutdown of Oracle and SAP.
2) When we start using startsap script, it doesn't start DB so we started DB manually but listener was having problem
    so we stopped all.
3) We also did a cleanipc, it too throws below error:-
sidadm> cleanipc <systemno> remove
               exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program cleanipc because of the following errors:
               0509-130 Symbol resolution failed for cleanipc because:
               0509-136   Symbol memmove (number 106) is not exported from
               dependent module /usr/sap/sid/SYS/exe/run/libsapu16.so.
               0509-192 Examine .loader section symbols with the
               'dump -Tv' command.
4) Also the Listener file has no contents,it's null file.
5) This is another error :-
    exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program /oracle/sid/112_64/bin/tnslsnr because of the following errors:
    0509-150   Dependent module /oracle/sid/112_64/lib/libttsh11.so could not be loaded.
    0509-101   The module has too many section headers
    or the file is damaged
The libttsh11.so file was empty dated 25th timestamp as below in PRD:-
-rw-rr    1 sid   dba               0 Nov 25 07:12 libttsh11.so
Further checking has let me to understand this is an Oracle Bug from this link:-
http://gavinsoorma.com/2009/12/11-1-0-6-clusterware-upgrade-to-11-1-0-7/
This Oracle bug only happens in an Upgrade time and how could this happen to my Production system during a restart process.
Also this system was restarted during the last weekend's maintainance window and it came up with no issues.
6) We copied over the libttsh11.so from our QA environment to PRD and did a Startup:-
-rwxr-x---    1 sid   dba        65967496 Nov 25 07:40 libttsh11.so (This is the copied over file from QA)
7) After Startup everything has been in order till now.
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before. Hope all the Gurus here could shed some light into my 2 questions as I am looking for positive answers.
Thank you.
Regards,
John

Hi,
Firstly I would suggest you to upgrade your database from Oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0 to Oracle Release 11.2.0.2 . This is the recommended Oracle 11g database version for SAP solutions. Many of your problem will get resolved with it.
Question 1:
So my first question would be is there any other suggestions besides adjusting the mentioned parameter above in order to ensure that no work processors going into hang state due to RFCs' occupying it as this issue always happens at the end of the month only when there are massive users accessing it.
For immediate resolution the approach you have followed is correct viz limiting number of dialog processes for RFC. Secondly you need to analyze why RFC processing takes so much time. You need check which programs are getting executed by those RFC.
Generate EarlyWatch report for more detailed view
Question 2:
My second question is what went wrong with the libttsh11.so file. How could it be 0 size in PRD when no signs of changes had happen to the PRD system. Is this a proven Oracle Bug or something else since I have never encountered anything like this before.
The libttsh11.so library cannot be found in the related directory.
Cause
The file system is mounted using CIO option, but per Note 257338.1 Direct I/O (DIO) and Concurrent I/O (CIO) on AIX 5L, an ORACLE_HOME on a filesystem mounted with "cio" option is not supported.
Such a configuration will cause, installation, relinking and other unexpected problems.
Solution
Disable the CIO option on the filesystem.

Hope this helps.

Problems while migrating from mySql DB to oracle DB

Hi All,
I'm using sql developer tool to migrate from MySql DB to oracle DB. I followed the below steps.
1) I've created oracle and mysql connections successfully.
2) I've captured Mysql data and I'm able to see the captured model in ' Captured Models ' window. After that right clicked on the captured model and selected ' Set Data Mapping'. Selected ' apply ' button without changing anything. After that I've right clicked on the captured model and selected ' Convert to Oracle Model ' . It has shown the converting process. After some time it has shown conversion completed successfully.
But converted model is not visible in ' Converted Models ' window.
Can anyone kindly assist on how to migrate from MySql Db to Oracle DB?
Thanks,
Saty.

Hi,
We did mysql to oracle migration some time back and played with workbench tool and many other softwares available.
However our experience was not so good with these tools, each tool had its own limitation and was not able to migrate 100% data. Even the speed of migration was too slow which would have violated our production SLAs.
So after spending a month with these tools we finally decided to create our own scripts for data migration. We used tools like TOAD and SQL Yok to create the DDL for the tables and other DB objects.
For the data migration we downloaded the mysql data in flat files and used sql loader to upload the same data in oracle. Even if this was a time consuming activity but this resulted in 100% data migration with no record getting failed and the time taken for this activity was around 6 Hrs in comparison to time of 24-28 Hrs that the workbench tool took.

Is that a Hyperion sqr file? I doubt there are migration tools, so you will need to rebuild the report in Oracle Reports.

Does anybody have idea? Thanks!

Hi Donald,
Thanks for your reply.
"ROGER"."ABB_FILE"."ABB04" means in user "ROGER" schema, have a table "ABB04", and have a column named "ABB04".
So the column's name is "ABB04", not exceed 30 characters.
The table's description in Informix as follows:
create table "roger".abb_file
abb00 char(2),
abb01 char(12),
abb02 smallint,
abb03 char(24),
abb04 char(30),
abb05 char(6),
abb06 char(1),
abb07 decimal(16,3) not null ,
abb08 char(10),
abb11 char(15),
abb12 char(15),
abb13 char(15),
abb14 char(15),
abb15 char(4)
And the table in Oracle's description:
CREATE TABLE "ROGER"."ABB_FILE"
     "ABB00" VARCHAR2(2),
     "ABB01" VARCHAR2(12),
     "ABB02" NUMBER(5),
     "ABB03" VARCHAR2(24),
     "ABB04" VARCHAR2(30),
     "ABB05" VARCHAR2(6),
     "ABB06" VARCHAR2(1),
     "ABB07" NUMBER(16, 3) NOT NULL,
     "ABB08" VARCHAR2(10),
     "ABB11" VARCHAR2(15),
     "ABB12" VARCHAR2(15),
     "ABB13" VARCHAR2(15),
     "ABB14" VARCHAR2(15),
     "ABB15" VARCHAR2(4)

How to configure SAP 4.7 to Oracle 9i Real Application Cluster ?

We are using SAP 4.7 running on Oracle 9i with HP-UNIX clustering.
If we change our existing SAP 4.7 for Oracle 9i Real Application Cluster, is it very complicated ?
Do we need to re-install SAP and Oracle ?

Both 4.7 and Oracle 9 are already out of support.
If you plan to use RAC then I'd first upgrade the application and the database and then implement RAC. You won't have support for your environment without additional costs.

Weird tables are added in the db after migrating an Access db to Oracle 0816

Hi,
The migration workbench has been giving me headache recently. I
was trying to migrate a small Access 97 db to Oracle081600. It
used to work fine. But one day, it began to give me problems.
Each time after I migrated an Access97 db to Oracle, the
database in Oracle included lots of tables which I don't know
where they come from (such as ACC_COLUMN,
ACC_DATABASE,...MTG_COL_DEP_CHG...OM_ALL_INDEXES_INFO...SS7_SYSCO
LUMNS...etc). And I just could not find the tables that I wanted
in the migrated oracle db. Is there anyone who knows what's
wrong? I really need someone's help on this problem.
The oracle I installed is Oracle0816, running on Windows2000.
Thank you.
Li yang

I am having the same problem. I had never used the tool before
so i thought it was normal. If you have figured it out let me
know. my boss wants to know if we can use this tool or should
pursue other ways of migrating.
