Migration from Crystal Reports 2008 to Crystal reports Enterprise(BOE 4.0)

Dear all ,
I m currently doing a project on Crystal reports 2008 where datasource is mostly SAP BW queries. Our customer will have BOE 4.0 in coming months . I have heard that in BOE 4.0 Crystal reports for Enterprise will be a better option for BW datasources.Is that true? So here comes my question , Is it possible to migrate reports based on Crsytal reports 2008 to Crystal reports for Enterpise 4.0 afterwards. What will be best option for us , shall we build further reports on Crystal reports 2008 or Crystal reports 2011 or should wait until we have BOE 4.0 ?
Thanks
Best regards
Atul

Hi,
We are going through the migration process from 2008 to Enterprise version. The only issue we are facing is the mapping of the Hierarchy nodeid and parentid. Other than that we were able to migrate most of the pieces from the report.
Here is the overview of migration process:
1. When you run the upgrade manager to migrate objects from BOE 3.1 to 4.0 it will automatically upgrade it to CR 2011 version.
2. You then have option to migrate it manually by opening the report in Enterprise version.
3. If you open the report in Enterprise version it will prompt you to connect to common semantic layer wizard.
4. Before that you have to have your datasource ready for that report depends on how your CR 2008 is connected. (can be BEx query or Relational Universe)
5. If its BEx query you have to maintain the connection in CMC under OLAP connection to your BW system.
6. Next thing is to map the Source fields to Target fields (BEx query or Relation Universe via IDT) and your report will be converted to Enterprise version.
7. You might have to resolve if there are any errors.
Let me know if you have any particular questions if i can help.
Thanks.

How to open the crystal reports 2008 in CRYSTAL REPORTS ENTERPRISE 4.0

Hi All,
Can you please let me know how can migrated the crystal reports from BO XI 3.1 to SAP BO 4.1 and after migrate how to open the crystal reports 2008 in CRYSTAL REPORTS ENTERPRISE 4.0.
can you please help on this and if document please share.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Use the upgrade management tool to move from 3.1 reports to BO 4.1. After migration, open the report in crystal enterprise 4.0, you will get a message saying that the report will be converted to latest version, will not be able to view from older version after converting. (Similar words- not sure exact words).

Migration from Brio8 version to Hyperion Interactive reporting version11

Hi,
We are migrating from Brio8 environment to Hyperion Interactive Reporting version 11 environment. I am referring hs_migration.pdf version 11. I am using migration utility tool to do migration.
my question is if I am migrating artifacts from Brio 8 repository to Hyperion 11 reposotory. Will it migrate all the old UUIDS of all the reports to the new repository or will it create new UUIDS for the reports. If that is the case reports which were saved offline referring to webbased queries will work?

Hi.
We are just now attempting an upgrade from Brio 6.5 and the On-Demand Server to Hyperion 9.3. Are any of you able and willing to address questions as they come up? I understand the set up and security of the Brio product thoroughly .. and create reports and EIS sections. BUT ... the terminology change from Brio to Hyp 9 is daunting and I'm needing to know how to begin to construct what in Brio I think of as the "Catalog". I'm interested in keeping our initial Hyp9 implementation simple ... and not take advantage of all the options in Hyp 9 which are not part of Brio.
Thank you!

Migrate from server core 2008 r2 hyper-v with failover cluster volumes to server core 2012 r2 hyper-v with failover cluster volumes on new san hardware

We are getting ready to migrate from server core 2008 r2 hyper-v with failover cluster volumes on an iscsi san to server core 2012 r2 hyper-v with failover cluster volumes on a new iscsi san.
I've been searching for a "best practices" article for this but have been coming up short. The information I have found either pertains to migrating from 2008 r2 to 2012 r2 with failover cluster volumes on the same hardware, or migrating
to different hardware without failover cluster volumes.
If there is anyone out there that has completed a similar migration, it would be great to hear any feedback you may have on your experiences.
Currently, my approach is as follows:
1. Configure new hyper-v with failover cluster volumes on new SAN with new 2012 r2 hostnodes and 2012 r2 management server
2. Turn off the virtual machines on old 2008 r2 hyper-v hostnodes
3. Stop the VMMS service on the 2008 r2 hostnodes
4. copy the virtual machine files and folders over to the new failover cluster volumes
5. Import vm's into server 2012 r2 hyper-v.
Any feedback on the opertain I have in mind would be helpful.
Thank you,
Rob

Hi Rob,
Yes , I agree with that "file copy " can achieve migration.
Also you can try "copy cluster wizard " :

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 ?

FSMO Migration from 2003 to 2008 R2

I am prepping for FSMO migration from 2003 to 2008 R2 this weekend. I was going through the steps and found a issue that is concerning me. On the 2008 server which is a DC and going to hold all FSMO roles. When I right click on Schema to change Schema
Master the "Change field" does not reflect the new 2008 R2 server? Is this by design...As in will this reflect the 2008 R2 server once I do step 1 Change Domain Controller? Single domain simple AD topology. I am an enterprise admin, domain
admin, and schema admin. The current FSMO is 2003 R2 and it follows to current 2003 R2 and 2008 R2. Will I have to seize the role?
All other FSMO moves show the new server ma-file1. Any help appreciated.
Dave Santel

All AD commands show that I have healthy replication, DNS, ect. No errors. Issue as stated above is when I goto "Change Schema Master" on ma-file1 it only gives the option to change to 2003 existing FSMO ma-file. Not sure if I should proceed with
FSMO migratio using NTDSUTIL to manually transfer? Or if anyone has any advice on how to proceed?
C:\>netdom query fsmo
Schema master               ma-file.ccc.local
Domain naming master        ma-file.ccc.local
PDC                         ma-file.ccc.local
RID pool manager            ma-file.ccc.local
Infrastructure master       ma-file.ccc.local
The command completed successfully.
C:\>netdom query dc

Migration from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11g

Hi there,
I have a quick question, Anyone who have experienced to migration procedures,function from SQL Server 2008 to 11g R2. Is it possible? I migrated tables and views through Oracle heterogenious servinces but I am not sure about the fucntions and procedures.
Any help would be appreciated.
Warm regards,

Automated conversions are possible. After these conversions the system will pretty much run. However, and it can be a pretty big HOWEVER, performance could well take a hit - which the uninitiated or SQL Server acolytes will seek to blame on Oracle not being very good. This is not actually the case.
You could be in for a major review and rewrite. Besides the syntax differences in the procedural languages, there is a huge - like really huge - difference in transaction control, isolation, and read consistency. Basically, keep in mind that Oracle reads do not block writes, writes do not block reads, and there are no dirty reads. Writes only block other writes. Thus, no coding 'tricks' are needed to get around these blockers. Oracle has global temporary tables that are generally used to help out those converting from SQL Server. In actuality, then are mostly not needed as you can almost always do your work in one SQL statement.
Read the concepts guide from cover to cover, then do it again, then start looking at what you need to do to convert your procedural code.

CA migration from 2003 to 2008 R2 server.

Hi,
If the name of the destination server (Win2008) is different from the source server(Win2003). And later we decide to decommission the server(Win2003). What effect will be on the Certificate that are already issued from the source server(Win2003).
1. Can we renew those certificates from the Windows 2008 server ?Since we have restored the CA database and private key on the Windows 2008 server.
2. What could be the impact if we shutdown the Windows2003 after migration. Please note CA server of windows 2008 have a different hostname now.
3. What are the impact to the existing servers where the cert is pointing to the Windows 2003 CA server.
I followed this article to do the CA migration
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/9aa53be9-0497-49fa-9ff6-09b72cb69444(v=ws.10)#BKMK_GrantPermsAIA
Thanks....

Can we have two CA running in an environment ?
In the below TechNet docs , it has mentioned to Removing the CA role service from the source server and
Removing the source server from the domain . Can we skip these steps ?
The point it to decommission or removed source CA only when the new CA server with different name is active and successfully operational.

Migrating from SQL Server 2008.

What options do I have to migrate from 2008 to work around the quick migrate? How do I generate the capture scripts from the SQL Server database to bring into developer to bypass the utility?
Thanks

Wrong forum.
Oracle has a tool named "Migration Workbench" that should help you though I'd be surprised if it was compatible with any new SS 2008 features.
My preference, due to the strangeness that is SQL Server, is to reverse engineer objects to DDL and run the scripts and dump the data as vertical
bar delimited ASCII and load with Oracle SQL*Loader.
SQL Server 2008 has been out a very short time. I'd be interested in knowing why it is so quickly being abandoned. Thanks.

Roaming profiles migration from 2003 to 2008

Hi everyone,
I need to know if there is a tool from Microsoft or a procedure for TS profile migration settings from 2003 to 2008 R2 like network links, connected printers ...
for data migration I see that I can use this link http://support2.microsoft.com/kb/947025/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0
I heard about some tools like Profile Migrator or Forensit,
but I want to do it cleanly with Microsoft recommandation
Any help will be very appreciated,
Thanks

Hi Sam,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
Yes, agree with link provided by Milos. As it’s incompatible but we can use USMT tools and need to migrate the user profile based on the following situations.
Roaming Profile: The following KB article is helpful in this scenario:
Support guidelines for migrating roaming user profiles data to Windows Vista or to Windows Server 2008
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;947025
Local Profile: There is no out-of-box way to support the automatic migration based on my experience. You may need to manually migrate the data into the new profile locations.
Hope it helps!
Thanks.
