Migrating from Oracle8.0.x to Oracle10g on OpenVMS

Hello,
We have the Oracle 8.0.5, which runs on the OpenVMS Version 7.2. The Hp documents show that we must upgrade the OpenVMS to 8.2. However, before upgrading the OpenVMS system and migrating Oracle, we really want to know what steps we need to perform before the migration and a procedure to migrate Oracle8 to the latest Oracle version. We appreciate for any advice.
Thank you,
Kelli

This forum deals with questions of migrating from non oracle databases to Oracle. For upgrade related questions, I would suggest that you post your question to the Database - General forum. If you have a current Oracle support contract, checkout MetaLink as well.

Migration of oracle8i (Sun Solaris) to oracle10g (HP-UX).

Hello,
I just did a migration of oracle8i (Sun Solaris) to oracle10g (HP-UX).
The problem is that the roles given in 8i are not reflected in 10g.
e.g: in 8i user x has roles 1, 2, 3
The same user x in 10g has roles 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
The roles are not DB roles (e.g dba, connect, resource, etc) but user defined roles.
Thank you,
Dirish

1. How did you migrate ?
2. What are the roles 1,2,3,4,5... ?
3. What release is your 8i ?
4. What release is your 10g ?
But what is your question ? Since we have no clue at all of what you did, you have no chance to get proper help.

Migrating from Oracle8i OWS 4.0.8 to Oracle9iAS

My migration plan is to simply install the 9iAS 9.2 on my UNIX server, provide connectivity, and migrate my existing Developer 6i forms from my Oracle8i server.
Question1: What documentation is recommended to map out the migration steps necessary?
Question2: Are there any 6i forms modifications necessary before running them under 9iAS?
Question3: Are there any "tips" or caveats involved in going from OWS 4.0.8 to 9iAS?

Hi sparihar, thanks for quick response!
Let me ask, why wouldnÂ´t you recommend direct migration? Gathering around the forum had found some posts complaining about the difficult task migrating from ver 4 to v. 7, does a whole app rewrite in 8.1 makes sense i.s.o. a double migration?
TIA,
Patricio.

Migrating from oracle8i to oracle10g

how to migrate oracle8i to oracle10g

Hello,
Check with Application Vendor, majority of Third Party Applications are Schema Based only, so it will be easier to perform schema Export from 8i and import in 10g or 11g (As per Apps to DB Certification)
Seems like you have 8i version which is very Old and it may need cleanup too, which will be done as part of Export Import and you can reclaim additional Space assigned to Datafiles (In case you had lots of data and deleted those - and not able to remove those due to HighWater Mark Issue)

Migration from Oracle8i (BLOB) to Oracle9i

Hi All,
I have stored some Word documents in Oracle 8i DB using OLE Container. I need to migrate my DB from 8i to 9i. Given that Oracle9i, doesn't support OLE container, I need to save current BLOB contents as Files in 9i DB. Would you please advise on steps should be taken or address any reference or tutorial?
Best,
Hamid Motahar

oracle keywords that could be used in the existing database interactions would have to be changed,also the db connection strings. i guess that is all in the application.
If anything else comes to your notice pls let me also no, as i am facing a similar task

Thanks in Advance.You can use manual or using exp/imp can upgrade your database.
1.Take cold backup from 9i database.
2.Install 10g software and create need directories and restore cold backup
3.Startup database with upgrade option
sqlplus "/as sysdba"
startup upgrade pfile='pfile_location'
@$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/catupgrd.sql;
shutdown immediate;
startup pfile='pfile_location'

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.

Oracle10g database migration from MID to MIT

Dear all,
im currently doing the migration from production server (MID) to dev server (MIT).
i've use 2 method below but all encounted the error and fail to import. hope some one can point the error and explain the some of my problem.
1. used oracle exp and imp
full database.
- i've exp the full database and drop all the current R3 table by following selection syntax.
select 'drop table sapsr3.' ||table_name|| ';' from user_table.
- but some table fail to drop because some of the table name consist '//'
- after doing imp, R3 cannot be start and keep show yellow status.
- log file display 'waiting for termination icman'
Q1. is that the method i did is correct?
Q2. how do i drop the table which start from '//'
single table.
- i've exp a single table from database then imp.
- while i check on SQL+. the table exist and consist data.
- but when i check on GUI. the table doesn't exist.
Q3. is that the table imported is only import to oracle. but not R3?
Q4. how to make it completely update to R3?
2. used SAP brtools.
full database.
- i've export a complete database backup(MID) by selected
backup and recovery -> database backup -> backup device type (disk)
- then import the backup to MIT
restore and recovery->while dabase reset->select consistent database backup()->
check the status of database files()->restore control files and redolog files()->
restore data files() ->reset program status()
note: () means the whole process.
Q5. database restored from MID to MIT, but the MIT could not start R3. may i know what i miss to cross R3 could not start?
single table
- export single table thru segment management-> export table from MID.
- import single table thru segment management-> import table to MIT.
Q6. error show oracle_home didnt set. but i've check on system enviroment and oracle_home is there. and i double confirm the variable by enter 'set'. Oracle_home still there. should i set oracle_home in cmd again?
note: pls state which method is preferable and which question is answering.
thanks and appreciate from yours reply.

Migration Path from Oracle8.0.4 to Oracle 9.2

I need to migrate from Oracle 8.0.4 on Win NT to Oracle9.2 on Win 2000.
I read the Oracle 9i Database Migration.
Direct upgrade is not supported for Oracle 8.0.4. I need to complete the following
1. Upgrade to release 8.0.6 using the instructions in the release 8.0.6 READMEMIG.doc file.
2. Upgrade the release 8.0.6 database to the new release using the instructions in Upgrading a Database to the New Oracle9i Release
Can you please help me to obtain 8.0.6 READMEMIG.doc file or instructions to upgrade from 8.0.4 to 8.0.4.
Thanks in advance

> I have checked the Database upgrade guide in service.sap.com and I got upgrade Docu (Oracle 9.2.0.6 to Oracle 10.2 WINDOWS ).
You also read it?
> Now my question is my current Oracle release and patch is oracle 9.2.0.4 .
> Kindly advise I have to upgrade patch 9.2.0.6 and then I have to Oracle Upgrade 9.2.0.6 to 10.2
Page 11 in the upgrade guide - "Planning section"
"If the source database runs Oracle 9.2.0.4, 9.2.0.3, 9.2.0.2, or 9.2.0.1,
you need to update the source database to patch set 9.2.0.6 or later."
Actually the guide from SAP is very good, you just have to read it and follow it step-by-step. Also "mix in" the notes mentioned in the guide.

Migration from AIX Oracle8i to Solaris Oracle8i?

Hi,
I wonder how to migrate Oracle 8i (8.1.7) on AIX to Oracle
8i (8.1.7) on Solaris?
The Oracle version is the same, but only the O.S platform is
different. I have found the migration information from Oracle
web site but it only talks about migration between different
database.
Thanks.

> In our organisation, we are planning to migrate from AIX6.1 to Solaris x64. The processor which we'll be using is UltraSPARC+IV processor.
Well - I think you're mixing a few things up here.
Solaris x64 refers to Solaris on the Intel or the AMD processor (x64 == x86_64 == AMD64)
UltraSPARC IV+ refers to a CPU developed by Sun (now Oracle).
> 1. Which guide to refer for moving the SAP System from AIX6.1 to Solaris
There are no specific guides for OS migrations. You use the heterogeneous system copy approach. However, migrating a database and/or operating system requires a certified migration consultant on-site doing the migration. If you do it yourself you'll loose support from SAP for problems during the migration and for the target system (see http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration).
> 2. Is UltraSPARC+IV processor is supported for Oracle 10g
Yes. Solaris 10 on SPARC Is supported.

Stored procedures not working after migrating from 8i to 10g

The Oracle stored procedures are generating an error following upgrading a ColdFusion web application from Oracle8i to 10g release 2.

I've been looking at this for about 3 days with a colleague in the office. We can resolve this be recreating the stored procedure with a new name (e.g. adding the suffix "_v2"). Its not really practical for us to do this throughout the system. Anyone know what the root cause might be?
I'm currently connecting to Oracle10g using SQLTools and Oracle8 client. I've yet to upgrade to Oracle10 client.
I've tried selecting all the stored procedures and re-compiling them but it appeared to make no difference.

Porting data from Oracle8i to XML and from XML to Oracle 10g

Hai
I have a client database (using oracle 8i) and a server database (oracle 10g).
Due to lack of leased line connectivity i want to port these offline data from 8i to 10g
using a modem(dial up connection).Is there is any way to port data from 8i to XML
and from XML to 10g.
thanks in advance
dejies

Thanks Nicolas,
As per documentation, it seems to be difficult for export/import from Oracle8i to 10g. Is that any way to achieve this? I have to append the newly imported data with old or exisiting data into Oracle10g.

Nikhil
