Migrating from mssql to oracle or postgres to oracle

I have a database driven web application written in J2EE. Currently this application works with Microsoft SQL 7.0 and Postgres 7.3. It uses various datatypes and also has many stored procedures. I will be migrating actual data, table definations and stored procedures.
Can you please tell me whether to go for MS SQL to oracle migration or postgresql to oracle?

Hi Margaret,
The Oracle Migration Workbench MS SQL Server 7 plugin will migrate your MS SQL Server 7 schema, stored programs and data to Oracle. You can freely download the Migration Workbench from the Migration Technology Center on OTN at http://otn.oracle.com/tech/migration/content.html.
Currently the Migration Workbench does not support migrations to postgres.
I hope this helps,
Tom.

Re: Migration from Sysbase Adaptive Server 11.5 to Oracle 8.0.6

I had a problem when using Oracle Migration Workbench to migrate a database from Migration from Sybase Adaptive Server 11.5 to Oracle 8.0.6 in NT environment.
It contains only 8 tables.
Firstly, it captured well the source database from Sybase. But It hang on every times when mapping tables in this database to Oracle.
Is there anyone experienced with this problem?
By the way, I would like to know that which way (tool) is the best one to migrate

Migration from MS SQL Server 7.0 to ORACLE 7.3

I am unable to download WorkBench. Does it support the migration from MS SQL Server 7.0 to ORACLE 7.3 anyway.

Actually, I have to do the conversion from MS SQL Server 7.0 to ORACLE 7.3. I am thinking to do migration firt then do the conversion by writing the packages. Is there any other way to do it......

Migrating from MSSQL 2000 to Oracle8i

During the capturing I get the error message " Failed to insert row into table: SS2K_SYSCOLUMNS; ORA-01400". Is there something I can do to avoid this? One more question. After the oracle model has been created, there is no "User defined functions" catalog. I don't know if this is related to my first problem or if function migration is not included in the MSSQL2000 beta plugin?

Hi,
Try the following URL for a potential solution
http://otn.oracle.com/support/tech/migration/workbench/htdocs/bulletins/sqlserver_01.htm
We have seen this issue before when a user is trying to migrate a SQL Server database that was migrated from one SQL Server to another SQL Server. This means that the user information in the database is not bound to the master database anymore.
The SQL Server sp_changedbowner procedure should provide a workaround.

Migration from 32-bit to 64-bit on Oracle 9.2.0.5

Hi guys.
I have two question for migration 32 bit to 64 (x86_64) bits on Oracle 9.2.0.5 for SAP 4.7 Enterprise?
1.- When i migrated 32 bits to 64 (x86_64) bits is necesary migrated to Oracle 10 ?
In the note SAP Note 960769 - Windows: Migration from 32-bit to 64-bit (x86_64), say that, pag 4:
" Oracle:
=====================================
On Windows Server 2003 X86_64 (64-bit), you may only use Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2) software for X86_64 (64-bit) as a database. Note 949116 describes the installation (homogenous system copy) of old products that were not originally released on Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2). If you want to make the copy using the backup/restore procedure, for which the source database was not yet upgraded to Oracle 10.2, see Note 932722"
But, in the pam matrix say that support for 9.2.
I confused for the information.
2.- In the case that is not necessary to migrate to oracle 10, i can execute the migration to 64 bits the SAP 4.7 with the procedure Backup/Restore?
I don´t have the new server, the server for the migration is the same. The procedure you want to follow is:
1.- Backup Offline all server.
2.- Delete the server, i install the server on Windows 2003 64 bits.
3.- Install SAP 4.7 on kernel 64 bits.
4.- Restore de backup offline (only data): datafiles, archive log, redo log.
Aprecciated for the help.
Best regards,
Desiré

Hi,
According to Note:814834
#Note that there is currently no 64-bit support for the x86_64 platform
for Oracle 9.2 because Oracle does not provide a 64-bit DB client for this purpose,
and, in addition, 64-bit operation of the DB server is not supported.
This means that this DB version can only be used in conjunction with SAP components on
Windows 32-bit on x86_64 hardware in 32-bit mode.
For more information, refer to the "Oracle" section in the note.
Furthermore, it states 32bit SAP instance can connect ot a 32 bit Oracle 9.2 or 10.2 database instance.
So for your case, its better to upgrade your current database to Oracle 10.2 and then proceed with migration.

SQL Devloper Migration from SQL SerProcedurs created as Functions in Oracle

Hi All,
This is the first time I am using SQL Deveoper to migrate SQL Server database to Oracle.
I have SQL Developer 3 and I did migration from SQL Sever 2008 to Oracle 10g using online migration.
Everything was done perfectly, but there are some extra tables created in Oracle which are not present in SQL Server database.
And also I observed lot of programs which are stored procedures in SQL Server are converted as functions in Oracle.
Does someone knows how to fix this problem.
Thanks

Hi,
A SQL*Server stored procedure can be converted to an Oracle function depending on how it is written and what it is doing. In the documentation -
Oracle® SQL Developer
Supplementary Information for Microsoft SQL Server and
Sybase Adaptive Server Migrations
In Chapter 3 in the section -
3.4.2 Function
It says under Table 3-6 -
In Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase
Adaptive Server, you can convert a stored
procedure to a function in Oracle because
the stored procedure in Microsoft SQL
Server or Sybase Adaptive Server can
RETURN an integer value to the calling
routine using a RETURN statement. A
stored procedure returns a status value to
the calling routine even in the absence of
a RETURN statement. The returned status
is equal to ZERO if the procedure
execution is successful or NON-ZERO if
the procedure fails for some reason. The
RETURN statement can return only
integer values
And what tables do you see in oracle that are not there in SQL*Server ? Some tables are created as part of the migration as they are needed to have the same functionality as in SQL*Server.
Does your migrated Oracle database work in the same way as the SQL*Server database ? If not, then please give use specific examples and we can follow up.
Regards,
Mike

Migrating from Ingres 1.2 on VMS to Oracle 8i on Unix

Migration path from 10.1.3.3.0 to Oracle TopLink 11g: Technical Preview 2 ?

What is needed to migrate from 10.1.3.3.0 to Oracle TopLink 11g Preview 2?
Does using Java 5 and swapping the Jar files are enough?
Can I use as is all the configurations generated by TopLink Workbench 10.1.3.3.0?
What is working in 10.1.3.3.0 that is not yet or will not be working in Oracle TopLink 11g?

If you open the project in the 11g preview it will automatically update the metadata and generate the deployment XML in the new format. Alternatively you should be able to open the 10.1.3.3 metadata in the 11g preview's runtime.
The biggest issue you may encounter in the upgrade besides replacing the libraries and ensuring you are using JDK5 is the removal of the code deprecated in previous releases.

Migrating from Centura/Gupta to Oracle forms

Hi
I work at an organistion that is the result of a merger, we have two main bespoke systems, one in Oracle Forms which has recently been upgraded to the web based version (6.5) and a second written in Gupta / Centura SQL Windows client server. Both use Oracle databases thought the Centura application is still on 8i.
We want to move to Forms over time but will have to run both for a while and would like to try and run them as more of a single system in the interim. e.g a single security system so users can move from one to the other without having to use 2 userids & passwords. My initial investigations suggest this isn't going to be easy.
I wondered if anyone had any experience/ tips, or could point me at any useful resources.
Thanks

Migration from Sun Java System Portal Server to the Oracle Portal

Hi, I'm in charge of evaluate the viability of a project that comprises the migration from Sun Java System Portal Server to the Oracle Portal. so I'm wondering if there is a kind of out of box migration tool in Oracle Portal or exists some guidelines to do the migration. In the other hand there is the option of migrate from Sun Java System Portal Server to Oracle WebCenter?
Thanks in advance!

The migration path for Sun Portal Server is Oracle WebCenter Suite. WebCenter is a significantly different architecture so there are no tools planned for the migration. However, we do plan to document and publish a whitepaper once we've assisted a few of the initial customer migrations.

Migrating from Red Brick database to Oracle 11g -Need help with the process

Hi,
I am on this new project were we are migrating from IBM Red Brick Data Warehouse to Oracle 11g. We have a very tight time line. I was hoping if any of you have done this migration before and are willing to share their experience. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would like to get a brief idea about how to go about the process.
Thanks in advance!

Hello,
that is a matter of supply and demand, and as the demand to migrate Red Brick to Oracle RDBMS is very low, Oracle never included Red Brick into the migration tools.
If you search in the forums for Red Brick, you will not find much more than this one from the year 2006:
Re: Migration from rebrick 6.0.3 to Oracle 9i
Options:
In general we have the following options:
1. Oracle Migration Workbench
2. SQL Developer Migration Workbench
3. Generic Connectivity
4. SQL*Loader
Regarding your dedicated foreign database, option 1 and 2 fail as those tools
do not work against Red Brick DB.
Generic Connectivity would be an option if you have an ODBC driver to this database.
In this dedicated case, you can then set up generic connectivity (= a database
link to the foreign database using odbc).
The Oracle database we support generic connectivity can reside on Windows,
Solaris, HP-UX, AIX and Linux.
If the Oracle database is on any other platform, you might migrate to a
database on this platform, then export the migrated DB and then load it into
the real target db.
Generic Connectivity will allow you to perform a SQL*Plus copy of tables; this
means you can create tables like they are defined in your source and transfer
the data to the Oracle db; but no procedures, triggers or anything coded can be
transferred.
Last option (4) is that you generate "flat files". This means ASCII-SPOOL
Files and then import them using SQL*Loader. As far as I know there is no
existing SQL*Loader sample file for Red Brick databases exports and you need to
write them on your own.
I recommend to read also the following note in My Oracle Support:
Note 233876.1: Options for Connecting to Foreign Data Stores and Non-Oracle Databases
Best regards
Wolfgang

Migration from 8.3 to 11.1.2.1

We are planning to migrate from Hyperion performance suite 8.3 to Oracle EPM 11.1.2.1 through Migration utility. But we have 2 different source system. is that possibel to migrate 2 source system into one target system. 2 sources system uses the oracle source repository.
Thanks in advance

Hi Krishna,
This is not a Distributed environment. Here the two source systems are different standalone applications. One is Unix and the other is solaris. Still now they ae using two different environments seperatley, now we are planning to migrate these two different source systems into a single target system.
Our questions is as it is two standalone applications it has its own foundation and product deployed databases (both uses oracle Repository) will it make any issuses while migrating 2 foundation services databases to a single foundation services database (11.1.2.1) as the same way two Brio deployed databases to single target IR database (11.1.2.1).
Thanks,
Chinnu
