Migration from AIX6.1 to Solaris x64

Hi,
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. I need clarification for below mentioned points.
1. Which guide to refer for moving the SAP System from AIX6.1 to Solaris
2. Is UltraSPARC+IV processor is supported for Oracle 10g
Also, please let me know the steps to be followed for the activity mentioned above.
Regards,
Ranjith

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.

  • 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.

  • DB migration from HP-UX to Solaris

    This is my assignment , what would be the good option to accomplish this?
    Move DBs From HP-UX To Solaris , Replicate the HP-UX directory structure: /db1, /db2 and create on Solaris,Move databases from HP-UX (db1, db2) to Solaris

    On 10.2, you can use RMAN and CONVERT DATABASE (in 10.1, you'd need to use CONVERT TABLESPACE for each tablespace), since your systems are both big endian (assuming Solaris on SPARC):
    PLATFORM_ID PLATFORM_NAME                            ENDIAN_FORMAT
              1 Solaris[tm] OE (32-bit)                  Big
              2 Solaris[tm] OE (64-bit)                  Big
              3 HP-UX (64-bit)                           Big
              4 HP-UX IA (64-bit)                        Bighttp://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14237/dynviews_2172.htm

  • DB migration from RHEL 5 to Solaris x86(64bit)

    DB version : 11.1.0.7
    Platform : RHEL 5 (64bit)
    We would like to move our non-ASM 11.1 DB which is currently in Linux (RHEL 5) to Solaris 10 x86 (64bit).
    Both RHEL 5 (64bit) and Solaris x86 (64bit) are of LITTLE ENDIAN format.
    1. I gather that I have to use RMAN's CONVERT DATABASE for this. Any Metalink note or URLs relevant to this migration ?
    2. Would the migration be easier if my DB was in 11.2 ? I could upgrade my DB to 11.2 if there are any advangtages from migration point of view?

    You can use transportable tablespace option to move database accross platforms.
    First, you must check tablespace dependecies.
    Check whether your tablespace can transfer or not?
    SQL> exec dbms_tts.transport_set_check('TEST_TS',TRUE);
    SQL> select * from transport_set_violations;
    set status of tablespace which you want to move to Read-only.
    SQL>alter tablespace test_ts read only;
    Convert datafiles of tablespace
    RMAN> convert tablespace test_ts to platform 'HP-UX (64-bit)' format='/tmp/test01.dbf';
    Export tablespace metadata using data pump export
    expdp talip/talip directory=dump_dir dumpfile=test_ts.dmp transport_tablespaces=test_ts
    copy datafile of tablespace to another db.
    Import metadata to another db.
    impdp talip/talip directory=dump_dir dumpfile=test_ts.dmp transport_datafiles=/data1/testts01.dbf

  • Migration from Solaris Sparc server to Solaris  x86

    Hi ,
    I would like to know.
    Migration from SAP ECC6 , Oracle , Solaris Sparc to Ecc6, Oracle, Solaris x86 , Is this consider Heterogeneous or Homogeneous system copy?
    Thanks.
    Best Regards,
    ck chai

    Solaris on SPARC is a BIgEndian platform, Solaris on X86 is LittleEndian - so it's heterogeneous --> you need to use R3load to performa a migration - and you need to have a certified migration consultant on-site to do that migration (http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration --> FAQ).

  • Migration from Sun solaris 8 to Solaris 10

    Hi,
    We are migrating from Solaris 8 to Solaris 10 with the compiler migration also earlier we are using Sun Studio 6 and now it is Sun Studio 11.
    When we are compiling the code on Solaris 10 which has been running on the Solaris 8, we are facing some error. So could you help me on this
    "ResourceManager.h", line 98: Warning (Anachronism): Type names qualified by template parameters require "typename".
    "ConnectionMgr.h", line 62: Where: While specializing "ResourceManager<T>".
    "ConnectionMgr.h", line 62: Where: Specialized in non-template code.

    "ConnectionMgr.h", line 62: Where: While specializing "ResourceManager<T>".
    "ConnectionMgr.h", line 62: Where: Specialized in non-template code.
    2 Warning(s) detected.
    make[1]: *** [obj/ConnectionMgr.o] Error 2
    Not sure of the warning , am not able to see these error on the compilation on Sun Studio 6.Below is the bit of the header file code, where the error is occurring.
    98 typedef map<ResourceID, ResElement *>::iterator ResMapIterator;
    100 typedef list<ResElement *>::iterator ResListIterator;
    We are using a /opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC compiler and the verison is CC: Sun C++ 5.8
    Please help me out about the issue

    Since you are jumping several compiler releases and two Solaris releases, you should migrate in two steps.
    1. Get your application working with Sun Studio 11 on Solaris 8.
    2. You can now run that application on Solaris 10, or you can rebuild it on Solaris 10 and then run it.
    An application built on Solaris 8 will run on Solaris 9 and 10.
    An application built on Solaris 10 cannot be run on Solaris 8 or 9.
    We promise upward binary compatibility, allowing an old binary to be used with a newer compiler or on a newer Solaris. But we can't promise source code compatibility because we don't want to have to duplicate old bugs in old compilers.
    C++ 5.8 in Sun Studio 11 detects errors that older compilers might have missed. The rules about where to use "typename" are one example.
    I would not expect the warning about typename to be generated by either of the source code lines that you show, but I can't really tell without seeing a compilable example.
    You need to use typename when you use a type that depends on a template parameter. Example:
    template <class T> class C1 {
    public:
        typedef T Type;
    template <class T> class C2 {
    public:
        typename T::Type a;
    C2< C1<int> > c2i;If in C2 you do not specify typename, the compiler does not know whether T::Type is intended to be the name of a type. If it is not a type, the code is always invalid. The C++ rule is that if an an identifier is not known to be a type, it is not a type. You use typename to tell the compiler that T::Type is supposed to be the name of a type.

  • Migrating from Solaris to AIX

    Hi
    We are planning to migrate from Solaris to AIX. What document will help me to follow?
    If possible send me exact link.
    Our current environment is R/3 4.6c, Oracle 9.2.3 and Solaris 5.9
    Please let me know as quickly as possible.
    Thank-you

    > We are planning to migrate from Solaris to AIX. What document will help me to follow?
    Start with
    http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration
    --> FAQ
    where you will see, that you need a certified migration consultant on-site to do that migration.
    > Our current environment is R/3 4.6c, Oracle 9.2.3 and Solaris 5.9
    since that version is out of support for a long time there are no more official migration guides available, that must be covered by consulting. Technically it will be done by R3SETUP with DBMIG.R3S as parameter file.

  • Db migration from Solaris 8i to windows 10g

    There is requirement to move db from solaris8(dbversion8170 to window Server 2003 (10204 already installed)
    DB is about 80gb big, what would be the best approach ?
    I am thinking to create new db on windows, and export and import data.....any concerns/suggestion?
    Source System
    SQL> select * from v$version;
    BANNER
    Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
    CORE 8.1.7.0.0 Production
    TNS for Solaris: Version 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 3.4.1.0.0 - Production

    TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production

    what are other options i can try ?I only mention this approach because you asked. I wouldn't recommend it as a general strategy. exp/imp is the most straight-forward.
    We are in the process of migrating from 9.2.0.6 to 11.1.0.7 (11.2 is not an approved standard yet in our enterprise), moving from Solaris to Linux, and consolidating two related instances into one.
    We had to handle some unique situations due to our consolidation, so we did a lot of the steps manually that exp/imp does for you. A side benefit of this extra work is the actual down time is can be less than exp/imp itself, and avoids the need to dump all the data to disk and read it all again. We have about 500GB to migrate. It is a lot more work than a simple exp/imp, and is probably not be worth the effort for a single 80GB instance.
    Our steps (oversimplified, there are more details than this) :
    Set up the new instance and configure storage
    Create users and roles in new DB
    export structure only (using 9i exp)
    import structure only (using 11g imp), without indexes or constraints
    copy data (insert /*+APPEND*/ into.. select * from ... over a database link)
    create indexes and constraints
    Handling LONG data, materialized views, interdependencies between schemas each presented their own special circumstances I had to deal with.
    The other path to get from 8i to 10g (mentioned only for academic reasons) is do a series of upgrades-in-place to get from 8i to 10.2.0.4 then use cross-platform transportable tablespaces to go from Solaris to Windows.

  • Migrate from Windows XP x86 to Windows 7 x64 using MDT 2013

    Hello everybody,
    We are migrating our Windows XP(x86) workstations to Windows 7 (x64). We are aware of the necessary gymastics tu perform on USMT in a way to run the scanstate with an older version of USMT in Windows XP, and then run the LoadState in Windows 7 environnement
    with the newest one. 
    The problem is that I cannot run MDT TaskSequences (referring to a X64 windows 7 Image) in Windows XP (full OS environnement). Can anyone please tell me if there is a way to get arround this ? is there any method to execute this migration ?
    Thank you in advance.

    You can use usmt with mdt. It's necessary to modify the script mdt

  • Migrating from ECXpert for NT to iPlanet for Solaris

    When migrating from ECXpert for NT to iPlanet for Solaris, is their a way to reuse our compiled Mercator maps (.mmc files)? Our ECXpert environment was created in 1998 and we no longer have the source for the map (.mms file) and we are looking are migrating to Solaris. Is their a converstion utility or do they run without recompiling in Solaris?

    I don't recall ever hearing that you could run a compiled map for windows (mmc) on another platform... If the windows machines is still going to be around, you could probably setup something so that translate runs on the windows box and then ECX can keep processing...
    Which account is this for???
