Migrating from Informix 9.21 to Oracle 9.2.0.4(Using Existing Tables space)

Hi
I want to create tables & indexes on different tablespaces as planned. I have already created table spaces using OEM. (for a given schema different set of tables have to be created on diffrent tablespaces and so on)
But,it appears,"OMWB Table Space Discoverer" is not much of useful. It allows to specify one for tables, one for indexes and TEMP. Is there anyway I can 'discover' all the tablespaces from the target and assign the tables & indexes to various tablespaces as planned.
Any suggestions?

Hi,
I was unable to reproduce your problem. I carried out the following steps in attempt to replicate the issue:
1. I launched the workbench, version 10.1.0.2, selecting the Oracle Lite "Default Repository".
2. Using the Oracle Enterprise Manager Console, I created a user "rtdb" with the password "rtdb" on my target Oracle 9i database.
3. I captured a test Informix database, generating its source and oracle models.
4. I then proceeded to migrate the database to Oracle and supplied my target Oracle9i database information in the "Migration Wizard, Step 1 of 4: Destination Database Details", supplying rtdb/rtdb as the username/password.
5. My test database migrated with no such error messages reported.
If you carried out the migration steps as I have outlined above, and are still experiencing issues with a "Failed to connect" error, I would contact support.

Hilary

  • 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.

  • Migrating from Informix 9.4X to Oracle

    Hello Everybody,
    I am trying to migrate an Informix database to Oracle using Oracle Workbench. I am trying to capture the source DB using the Wizard and when feeding the hostname, port, informix password and server name i am getting the following error "No suitable Driver"
    I have also an ODBC configured same way, and it does work, but I can not get this wizard working.
    If anybody know what can I do, please tell me. Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Before Migrating From Informix Dynamic Server
    To configure an Informix Dynamic Server database for migration:
    1.Verify that the Informix Dynamic Server JDBC Driver JAR file, ifxjdbc.jar, is located in the following directory:
    On Windows:
    OMWB_install_dir\Omwb\drivers
    On UNIX:
    OMWB_install_dir/Omwb/drivers
    2.If necessary, install the Informix Dynamic Server JDBC Driver, version 1.4:
    1.Insert the Informix Dynamic Server CD into your CD drive.
    2.Follow the instructions in the install.txt file located in the JDCC directory to install the Informix Dynamic Server JDBC driver.
    3.Copy the ifxjdbc.jar file of the driver to the following directory:
    OMWB_install_dir\Omwb\drivers
    On Windows:
    OMWB_install_dir\Omwb\drivers
    On UNIX:
    OMWB_install_dir/Omwb/drivers
    3.Ensure that you can connect to the Informix Dynamic Server database from the system where you have installed Migration Workbench.

  • Migrating from Informix 9.4 to Oracle 9.2

    Hi
    I need to migrate a database from Informix 9.4 to Oracle 9.2.
    There are a third-part application that must be migrated that always run in Oracle databases in others customers.
    I have a script (supplied for the third) to create the objects in Oracle (+- 1200 tables that will be created only with PKs to improve performance).
    My question is: Can I use the migration workbench only to load the data (45 GB)? If no, what can I do to minimize the work?

    Hello,
    Yes this is possible. You need to capture your source Informix database and map it to the Oracle Model using the Migration Workbench. Then you can generate the data unload scripts and SQL*Loader scripts to get the data our of your source database and into the destination Oracle database. For more information on how to do this, please see Chapters 4, 5 and 6 in the Oracle Migration Workbench User's Guide. You can find this document on the OTN Web site at:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/html/B15857_01/toc.htm

  • Migrating from Informix 9.21 to Oracle 9.2.0.4

    Hi
    Once I created the Oracle Objects from Oracle Model, I found that Stored Procedures & Triggers were missing. All the tables were created.
    I captured the Source Model & created the Oracle Model. Then I went on creating with Oracle Objects. The migration user(x1) was given all the Roles & Privileges as required. The schema belongs to another user.(x2)
    Please advice.

  • MIgration from Informix 7.2 to Oracle9i under Solaris

    Hi all
    I want to know whch version of Oracle migration kit shoul di use for migrating from Informix 7.2 to Oracle 9i. Also does the migration kit support CISAM files in Informix to be migrated to oracle. If not then how can the functionallity of the CISAM be brought into oracle. What are the options for migrating ACE reports from informix to Oracle.

    The Oracle Migration Workbench works with informix 7.3, I am not sure if it will work with informix 7.2.

  • Loading clob data/Migrating from Informix

    Hi,
    I wanted to understand a way to insert clob data into the database. I see that you have ways of retrieving and displaying the clobs/blobs in your demo programs. But, how do we go about inserting clob data into a column? And especially, How to accomplish this when the data is stored in the form of a file?
    We're in the process of migrating from Informix to Oracle and Informix has this way of storing the clob contents into .EMB files. Moreover, there is no one-to-one correspondence between each clob column and an .EMB file. Informix just knows how to load them up when you use FILETOCLOB(). In similar lines, do we have a way to load clob data from files to start with. And would be glad to get some intricacies on achieving the migration of data from Informix database.
    Please send me pointers to docs and procedures, if available.
    Thanks for your time
    Chandra M.

    You can see this sample:
    /******* schema ********
    create table city
    (id integer ,
    cimg blob DEFAULT NULL
    #include <iostream>
    #include <fstream>
    #include <occi.h>
    using namespace oracle::occi;
    using namespace std;
    #define BUFSIZE 8192
    Environment *env;
    Connection *conn;
    int res=0;
    unsigned int offsetw=1;
    unsigned char readbuf[BUFSIZE];
    main()
    try {
    env = Environment::createEnvironment();
    conn = env->createConnection("scott","tiger");
    catch(SQLException &x)
    cout << "Error :" << x.what() <<"\n";
    return 1;
    try
    ifstream infile ("bangalore.jpg", ios::binary);
    if (!infile.is_open()) cout << "could not open bangalore.jpg\n";
    else
    Statement *stmt = conn->createStatement();
    stmt->setSQL( "INSERT INTO city VALUES(1, EMPTY_BLOB())");
    stmt->execute();

    Informix support is planned, but will not be available in the

    Less user-friendly script based kits for informix and other

  • 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.

  • 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 ?

  • 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 ????
    Regards

    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.
