Migrate/Transfer 9i Database to another OS

Hi Friends,
We have a 9i Database residing on Fujitsu Solaris server. We want to migrate/transfer it to IBM AIX Server also same 9i Db version.
My question is, can I do this using transportable tablespace option? I know export/import is the "hardway" solution.
Thanks a lot,
Ms K

The datafiles of Oracle db are platform dependent and would be using "endian format" to recognize the o/s. In 10g, RMAN was given convert command which can get your files converted to the target platform and thus those files can be used in the tablespace transport. The same is there for a whole database as well. In 9i, I am afraid your option is limited to export/import only. Though the RMAN backups are platform independant but that won't help in your case since you would be moving on to a new platform.

SQL is the Database System Produced by Microsoft.
MySQL is a open source alternative to SQL and not affiliated with Microsoft in any way. In fact they are the competition.
The Microsoft Forum is propably not the best place to ask for MySQL Problems.
If you ask here, it's propably better asked in the

Transfer data from one database to another without identities but keep the relation b/w PK and Foreign key

Hi,
I need to transfer data from one database to another database (both are identical databases).
1. Not transferring identity columns (primary keys). the destination table might have the same key.
2. keep the PK's and FK's relation b/w parent and child table
3. I have 4 levels
Example: tableA (col1 int identity(1,1) , col2, col3)
tableB (col1 int identity(1,1) ,
col2 , col3) -- col2 has the foreign key relation with tableA.col1
tableC (col1 int identity(1,1) ,
col2, col3) -- col2 has the foreign key relation with tableB.col1
tableD (col1 int identity(1,1) , col2, col3) -- col2 has the foreign key relation with tableC.col1
please advise me.
Thanks in advance

Improving performance on migrating data from one Oracle database to another

We are using hibernate to migrate complete tables from one database to the other. This takes hours to days to transfer a couple of tables, all having relationships between each other. The only difference is that the new tables have an extra column which stores the primary key of the source table as an alias key in the destination table and the destination table has only one extra column which is its own primary key. Another small difference is that the name of the columns is a little different.
Isn't there a simple way to use Oracle database's in built tools to migrate data if provided the source and destination tables and column names for mapping purposes? Please provide some suggestions for this Oracle newbie. Any other suggestions on improving the migration performance will be greatly appreciated.
Suggestions please!!!

Hello Justin,
Thanks for your prompt reply. Ours is a small company so we take up all kinda roles. In this particular scenario, I was asked to migrate all the tables from one database to another. Both of the databases are present on two different machines but on the same network. There are about 100,000 records in some of the tables and there are about 50 tables to migrate. As I said, both the tables have different columns to be mapped and then transferred and the new table has only one extra column which is a primary key in the new table. Under these constraints, Hibernate is taking way too much time.
I always felt that there must be a simpler and efficient way to do this. I would appreciate if you could you explain me the procedures in detail please.
Thanks in advance.

Different ways to Transfer data from one database to another database

Hi all,
What are the ways to transfer data from one database to another database. With the following options, i Can transfer data as far as i know. Please
correct me if i am wrong or tell me if there is any other options are available.
1) Create database link/connection string and using this string and COPY command, we can transfer data.
2) By using Export and Import utilities.
I told first one to my interviewer, he told, its strange, by using, COPY command also can we transfer data ? As far as i know, we can transfer data. Am i right ?
Thanks in advance,
Pal

transfer data from one database to another database.You mean store the data of one to another?
1) Create database link/connection string and using this string and COPY command, we can transfer data.every SELECT on a DB-link is transfering data. And you can have all kind of transfers and store on the e.g CTAS of materialized views or.... the SQL*PLUS COPY :
The COPY command is not being enhanced to handle datatypes or features introduced with, or after Oracle8i. The COPY command is likely to be made obsolete in a future release.
But there are many others. Check for ORACLE Streams, and the "COPY" your interviewer was mentioning is about the operating file system COPY right? That's transportable tablespaces.

Transfer of Data from one Database to Another

Respected Guys
Is there any way to transfer few fields from different tables located on a Database Server used by SAP to an other database used by an another application. The other database also have same fields and and Tables structure.
Both databases are located on different servers and are oracle9i.
Is there any way to transfer real time data from one database to another. If not then any way by which we can preiodically can transfer the data.
Thnx

Hi
U can use a <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/9c/d736b880c34f76b507bac7751a0474/frameset.htm">DBCON (Database Connection) tool</a>.
Here you should call another database and write SQL native code in order to transfer/read the data.

DMS: Migration of DIR's from one SAP database to another SAP database

Hi Gurus
We have a content server with originals linked to DIR's in a SAP database. We want to migrate the DIR's to another SAP system. The question is can we link the originals to the new DIR's in the new system without having to download and upload the originals in the content server using the original Phios.
Thanks in advance.
regards
barry

HI,
You can change the content server connection to the new server but you can not b able to read the data which is already stored in the content server via old server. But you can store the new documents and you can retrieve the same. you have to download and upload the documents which are stored in the content server via old server.
thanks,
Chaitanya.

Primavera P6 migrating Database to another instance with migrate.sh

I want to migrate an existing Primavera P6 Database to another instance.
What I have done so far.
I fully backed up the database with expdp and impdp, but I get an error while trying to connect with admuser (maybe because its not existing).
So I did not take more time in that.
Later I wanted to use the migrate.sh Tool which looked not that hard to do, because it only needs the credentials and Database connection Information.
The Database is large, that means over 14GB so I tried several times and the migrate.sh tool gives me after hours SQLExceptions.
So what should be the Problem?
Maybe the session time?
How to change?

Thank you for your quick reply.
Ok I will do the impdp import.
I found an db script: orpm_create_users.sql which will do the creation of all users.
But before I do that I got an error in the migrate.sh which says:
"Error in Run SQL Script orpm_ins_aux.sql : DatabaseToolException (ORA-02298: cannot validate (ADMUSER.FK_UPLIST_USESSION) - parent keys not found)
Do somebody has an idea for that?
I will post my impdp import after Ive done it...

How to Copy (or) Transfer data in a BLOB Table From one database to another

Dear Members,
I want to Copy or Tranfer the data in a Table having BLOB Column from one database to another database.
The Problem is that I am using COPY Command.
COPY from scott/[email protected] to k5esk_ldb2/k5esk_ldb2@k5_ist.world CREATE BLOB_TABLE using select * from BLOB_TABLE;
This is working only if the table is not having BLOB Column or CLOB columns.
Is there any other way to do the same.
Appreciate any Help.
Regards
Madhu K

You could try using export/import utilities, but may run into tablespace issues if the tablespaces are not the same between the two databases. You can also try Data Pump using the REMAP_TABLESPACE variable if you tablespaces are different. You could also write your own export and import code...there are plenty of examples of that to copy.

Migrating the replication-master-site-database to another hardware

Hello folks, hello oracle
we have got the followiong configuration:
--> Database 8.1.7.0
--> Advanced Replication system
--> Single master, snapshot configuration
--> 50 Slave-sides; offline replication once a day
--> per slave side: 50 RO-Snaps, 4 UP-Snaps
an the following problem:
we need to migrate the master database from
an IBM-AIX-host-computer to an HP-UX-host-computer.
the question is:
Wich steps do we have to make?
Is there a documented way or method to do this?
Kind regards
Steffen

Hello,
thanks for your answer:
the database names are the same.
We made already a full database export und imported it into the target database.
This was not succesfull, because after the import in the target database
the table dba_registered_snapshot was not filled!
Now: what to do?
Kind regards.

Difference between upgrdae and migration about oracle database

Difference between upgrdae and migration about oracle database
please give the comments

Well, the question is almost philosophic... 
In 9i, there is a Migration Guide whereas in 10g there is a Upgrade Guide. 
Furthermore, in 9i, there is the command line startup migrate whereas in 10g that's startup upgrade.
Somebody think upgrade when go to new release, and migration when go to new version. 
Others think upgrade when new version replace database in place, and migration when new version include a move of database. 
Another point of view is : upgrade is for technical, and migration for application/data. 
 
Well, after these explanations, your upgrade/migratation notion will not be more clear, but I think that is not very important, only a terminology game. The most important is to know what you need : new version or new release.

Need to pass information from MS access database to another prog

Hi,
I really need some help here...
I need to pass selected information from my database to another information.
I am able to select and display the infotmation but i am not sure how i can transfer the information to the next program. Can any one please offer me some assistance?
My code is as follow:
/* Getting data from PSM32 and displaying it *can work* */
import java.net.URL;
import java.sql.*;
import java.lang.String;
/** Application to create a Ganttchart * */
public class PSMdb
public static void main (String argv[])
//SQLQueryFormat a = new SQLQueryFormat();
System.out.println("\nEstablishing Connection - Pls Wait... \n");
/** Get Info fr database**/
try
 //Connect to the database specified in the URL
 Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
 Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:PSM32");
 System.out.println("Connection Established.\n");
 //Create a SELECT statement object
 Statement statmt = con.createStatement();
 //Issue the SELECT statement
 String querySt = "SELECT Set, Name, Order " +
 "FROM PMETERS " +
 "WHERE Set = 'BRAKE.BAK' ";
 //Create and execute query
 ResultSet res = statmt.executeQuery(querySt);
 while (res.next())
 String Proj = res.getString(1); //get Proj Name
 String Task = res.getString(2); //get Task Name
 //Print statement
 System.out.println("" +Proj);
 System.out.println("" +Task);
 //Close Statement and Connection
 statmt.close();
 con.close();
 System.out.println("\nConnection Closed - Operation Successful.");
 catch(Exception E)
//Print out the Exception Error
System.out.println("Error:" +E );
}And yes there is another problem. I can compile and run the program in a C:\folder but when i open the document in a project workspace, i cant compile the above code. Can any one please offer me assistance?
Thanks a million.

How to move only subset of data from one database to another?

Both source & destination are Oracle11g databases.
The requirement details are as below,
1) The database contains static as well as transactional data for telecom domain.
2) We have to move region-wise data from one database to another.
3) There are around 10 regions.
4) The region wise data extraction from source db is based on around 40 to 50 tables. Rest of the tables contains
static data & it will not change.
5) The volume is around 1 million subscribers per region.
6) The migration is required because
a) The client is upgrading its base product which uses this database
b) There is a change in structure of static tables
c) Hardware upgrade
d) The client want to start with single region on new database & rest of the regions will be operated from old
database.
7) Keep execution time to very minimum.
I am thinking to have solution as below,
1) Create destination database with upgraded db structure (as mentioned in 6b)
2) Create database links to access source db in destination db.
3) Write SQL queries to fetch data from all the respective tables for a specific region
4) Write separate PL/SQL blocks for each table to fetch data from source db & insert into respective table in
destination db
a) Use FOR ALL & bulk collect to improve the performance
b) Divide table data into multiple chunks & execute parallel batches (around 10) to insert the data
5) Validate pre & post counts to verify the success of migration
Is there any other better way?
Regards,
Sandeep

How to move only subset of data from a partiular table by using transportable tablespace?
E.g. SUB table using SMP_SUB tablespace contains subscriber data in source database.
The indexes defined on SUB table are under SMP_IDX_SUB tablespace
The subscribers data can be categorized by different regions, say region_id column. Then how to move data & indexes of SUB table from source db to destination db?
any specific example would be helpful.

How to port a project from a database to another

Can any help me find a documantation how to port my metadata project from one database to another step by step. I get problem with the location and connector in mapping when import the metadata file (mdl)

I have to do the same task here. Still couldn't start this task though...
But I believe I'll use the MDL file. I don't see how avoid the connector/location issue either. I believe that migrating OWB's repositories demands to recreate this structures...
If anyone else knows how to overcome this issue, I'd be glad to know how!

Marcos
