Migrating from Sybase Anywhere to ASE

I am in process of migrating from Sybase Anywhere to ASE and trying to import a table from Anywhere to ASE, I getting following error message that could not find appropriate data type for column - now this column from Anywhere has data type of datetime.

ASE does not have any wizards so you must be using some sort of GUI/tool/application.
What GUI/tool/application are you using? PowerDesigner? Sybase Central? Sybase Control Center? Something else?
Can you *connect* to the ASA and ASE instances with this GUI/tool/application? [Forget the 'import' operation for the moment ... and verify you can just *connect* to both ASA and ASE.]
Also, what is the actual/complete error message?
NOTE: I don't use GUI/tools so depending on the error there may not be much more I can assist with.

Migration from SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12 and then to ORACLE 10G

Hi ,
The OWMB tool does not support migration of SYBASE IQ to ORACLE.So there should be some tool to migrate this SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12.And then which we can migrate to ORACLE which the OMWB supports.Does anybody have any idea about such tool(SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12).
Thanks With Regards,
Vinoth

Vinoth,
That's correct. However Sybase IQ is normally associated with Data Warehouses. Have you investigated the suitability of using Oracle Warehouse builder to assist with such a migration?
Ispirer supports migration from Sybase IQ 12 ( http://www.ispirer.com/products)

Hi Kathir,
but i could not able to connect from outside the VM i.e, from my laptop. what are the necessary steps I have to check and do to fix the problem.
Please check the following
1) Windows Firewall is off on target system

Migration from Sybase 11.9.1 to Oracle 7.3.4

Does the Oracle Migration Workbench 1.2.2 support database migration from Sybase 11.9.1 to Oracle 7.3.4?
If not, is there any work-around or any other tool? Can we still use Migration Workbench for this migration?
Thanks.

It is probably best to use the latest version of the workbench (1.2.5.0.0). Migration to 7.3 is not supported but should work except for the newer features, for example use long instead of blob and clob, and do not use 8i temporary tables.

Problem while migrating from Sybase to Oracle using Quick Migrate

Hi,
For SQL Developer version 2.1, while migrating from sybase to oracle, Using Quick migrate, during data move step, for the rows having ''(Blank) values in TEXT data type in SYBASE, which is convertd to CLOB in Oracle, the migration for that table terminates at that row.
However, NULL values in Sybase TEXT data type are successfully inserted in Oracle CLOB.
How can we overcome this?

reproduced and see exception in console, bug logged.

Migrating from Sybase to Oracle

Hi!
Can someone tell me, how to migrate from Sybase to Oracle.
Thank U.

Hi,
You don't say if you have used the SQL*Developer migration workbench for the migration so far.
This has a feature for transferring data offline which should do what you want.
Have a look at the documentation linked from -
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html
or at -
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12151_01/index.htm

Issue during migrating from Sybase to Oracle using Oracle SQL Developer

I am using SQL Developer v 3.2.20.09 to migrate from Sybase to Oracle Pl/SQL 12c
While migrating the stored procedure the following block did not convert. I got NULL instead of object_id:
Sybase Block:
IF OBJECT_ID(‘dbo.CheckEst’) IS NOT NULL
BEGIN
DROP PROCEDURE dbo.CheckEst
IF OBJECT_ID(‘dbo.CheckEst’) IS NOT NULL
PRINT ‘<<>>’
ELSE
PRINT ‘<<>>’
END
Oracle Block after conversion:
BEGIN
IF NULL/*TODO:OBJECT_ID(‘dbo.CheckEst’)*/ IS NOT NULL THEN
BEGIN
DROP PROCEDURE CheckEst;
IF NULL/*TODO:OBJECT_ID(‘dbo.CheckEst’)*/ IS NOT NULL THEN
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(‘<<>>’);
ELSE
DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE(‘<<>>’);
END IF;
END;
END IF;
END;
Lines 1 & 4 got converted to NULL. I have many places where such code is written.
Is there any quick way to overcome such an issue? or what needs to be done in such case?

Hi,
You are using an older version of SQL*Developer. Could you download the latest 4.0.2 version available from here -
Oracle SQL Developer
and check if you still have the problem ?

Migrating from Sybase 11.9

Is there an Oracle tool still available for migrating Sybase release 11.9 databases to Oracle? I can't seem to find anything on the Oracle website.
Thank you,
Steve

SQL Developer migration is the latest migration tool Oracle offers to mograte foreign databases to Oracle. Unformtunately it does not cover Sybase ASE 11.9 database releases according to the manual:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/pdf/migrationdatasheet_15.pdf
To migrate a Sybase 11 ASE you might think about using the old Migration Workbench utility:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/migration/workbench/index.html
The Sybase 11 plugin has been removed from the list of available resources, but it is still available on the download server:
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/omwb/101040/Sybase11.jar
In addition I've notified develoment if they could implement again a link on the OMWB download page fro the Sybase 11 plugin.
So you need to get from the Oracle Migration Workbench download URL the common file of OMWB:
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/omwb/101040/omwb.zip
Extract this ZIP file into a directory of your choice.
The plugin (make sure you save the file as it is - as a JAR file) into the OMWB Plugin directory and then get from Sybase te jdbc driver jconn2.jar and put the JDBC driver in
to the OMWB\drivers directory.

Migration from Sybase to Oracle

Hello every one,
First of all I want to say thank you for your time,
I would like that you certify my process, and, if not good, that you give me a better choice,
I want to migrate one database from Sybase 12.5 in a Solaris 8 platform to Oracle 10g in a HP platform.
I was thinking to migrate this Database using Oracle Database Migration Verifier, and I have this software in Windows platform.
My questions is: if is possible than I use a Migration Verifier since my windows to migrate a database from Sybase in Solaris 8 to Oracle 10g in HP?
I will appreciate your help.
Regards.

Hi,
I am working on the migration of existing system in Sybase 12.5 to Oracle 10g. Sybase 12.5 and Oracle 10g both are in solaris environment.
I am currently working on Oracle Migration Work Bench. I am facing issues with this tool. Its showing frequent errors and going into infinite loops.
Is there any other version of this tool which i can use ?
Is there any other such efficient tool which i can use for the same ?
Please let me know asap as its very urgent.
Regards,
Soham Shah

Migration from sybase 11 to Oracle 9i

Hi,
I have to migrate all db objects (tables structures,table data,triggers,sp) from Sybase 11 to Oracle 9i
There are currently two free tools -
Migration workbench (http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/index.html )
and
SQL Developer( http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html )
for this purpose.
SQL developer has a provision to convert scripts which I can use for SPs and scripts one @ a time.
Problem is migrating table structures along with data.
from SQL developer I can't connect to sybase thou I provide all the details and from workbench in the online mode I need the sa login which is not possible as the database is live and @ client side.
SQL Loader can be used but will require to make CSV files from each sybase table and hence is time consuming.

Hi,
Migration Workbench is not available for Sybase database.
As you can see on this website:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/files/mig_rel10104.html
Only Informix and DB2 database are supoprted now with this product.
With SQL Developer, we only support last versions of Sybase : V12 and V15.
As you don't have any remote access to your client database and no SA login , the best way would be :
==>to get and export from Sybase 11.
==>install a V12 somewhere (on your site , you can download the Sybase V15 )and import the Sybase database
Then SQL developer can migrate quickly your database without any problem.
I hope it helps you.

Migration from Sybase 11 to Oracle 8i

I am trying to migrate a Sybase DB to Oracle 8i. The platform of Sybase system is VMS and Oracle is UNIX. Can I use workbench to migrate between two different platform?
If not, is it the only way to export sybase to a flat file and then load to Oracle using SQL loader?
Thanks

Best approach to initial migration from Sybase IQ to BW: Files or ODBC?

Hi everyone!
I need to perform an initial migration of a VERY LARGE amount of data from Sybase IQ to BW. I've searched SDN thoroughly but didn't find anything related to it.
Does anyone have any thoughts on this? Thanks!

Thanks for your input. How would I do this? My largest table is in monthly partitions each in its own tablespace. Would the process have to be something like: alter table exchange partition-to-be-rolled-off with non-partitioned-table; then export that tablespace?

DATE format problem, migrating from Sybase to Oracle 9i

Hi,
We are in a process of migrating the database from Sybase to Oracle 9i, everything going fine except the data load of couple of tables.
The workbench created the control file, data & related files to load the data into Oracle using the SQL*LOADER.
But coule of data files having HH:MI:SS:xxx AM in the DATE field, which Oracle is failing while laoding the workbeck created the destination table with the column data type = DATE, so how to insert the milliseconds along the date like Mar 25 2004 12:00:00:000 AM
Thanks

In your control file for SQL*Loader, specify the timestamp with format like "Mon DD yyy hh:mi:ss:ff3AM".

Experiences migrating from Sybase to Oracle

Hi all,
I have been asked to look into migrating a database from Sybase to Oracle.
I know there is lots of info on Oracle's website, which I have downloaded, but I was just hoping for some info about some of your experiences regarding your processes. What are the gotchas. I suspect there will be a few.
Anything that will help would be of interest.
Many thanks
VicC

HI VicC,
I work within the SQL Developer team and not a customer as such, but the follow maybe of use.
SQL Developer is a migration aid, its not 100% magic bullet.
SQL Developer does alot of the manual conversion for you quickly. But you may find Testing / Tuning and the application migration (if any) take you the most amount of time.
SQL Developer aims to migrate you tables, indexes, and data without issue. But SQL Objects like Procedures, Triggers, Views and Functions conversion will likely require manual work on top of the automatic conversion provided by SQL Developer.
SQL Developer does not yet automatically handle things like the tablespaces structure or the the logins. Although these things can be scripted and managed more easily within SQL Developer.
I would recommend downloading and performing the migration from a non production instance ASAP.
SQL Developer can perform a migration quickly and you will then be able to assess what SQL Developer can and cant do for you.
I would recommend creating a migration repository on an Oracle database local (install Oracle XE if you dont have a local database) to the SQL Developer instance you are using.
I would also recommend downloading SQL Developer 2.1
Here are some key sites regarding Sybase migrations.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/viewlets/sqlserver.html . This viewlet for SQL Server is the same process for Sybase.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/hol08/sqldev_migration/sybase/migrate_sybase_otn.htm . This Oracle By Example takes you step by step through a Sybase migration including some gotchas
http://dermotoneill.blogspot.com/2008/06/sql-developer-migration-workbench-151_11.html . This is my blog outlining the steps to perform a Sybase migration.

Migration from Sybase EB to Biztalk 2013

One of our clients has a requirement to move from Sybase EB to Biztalk 2013. If anybody has performed such a migration in the past, can you please enlighten on the complexity and steps involved? Further, do share any knowledge articles around the scenario.
Thanks

I'm not familiar with Sybase EB but, it doesn't really matter.
It's very simple, there is no migration path from any integration platform to any other integration so what you're looking at is buildign a new BizTalk app. Which is actually a better since you can design for the current situation rather than any past
implementations.
If the app is using any standards based formats, ebXml, ACORD, cXml, those schemas would be reuable, but any mapping or business process would all be new. This isn't BizTalk specific in any way, you'd be in the same situation migrating to WebSphere
or mule.
