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

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.

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)

"Default " problem while migrating from mysql to oracle.

I'm migrating from mysql3.23 to oracle9i via the OMWB tool.While migrating i'm getting an error message "Failed to create default for the table <table>:ora00907 missing right parenthesis".This error is due to the difference in the syntax used for the keyword "default" in mysql and oracle.In mysql we have to give after the Not Null option whereas in oracle we have to give before Not Null.
The problem is i'm migrating via the OWMB tool.Is is possible to handle this error with the help of tool itself.
Thanks
Jai.M

Jai, I'm having Frank have a look at this for you to see if we can replicate it ans help solve this issue for you. are there any issues logged on the mysql site regarding saving blobs as file?
thanks

Hi Akhil,
Looks like some Tuxedo services are using Pro*C code. Therefore, you would need to recompile your Pro*C code using the newer compiler and then rebuild the Tuxedo servers.

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.

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;

Does theJ2EE migration kit support migrating from Oracle9 iAS?

Hi,
We currently have an application based on Oracle9 iAS.
1) Does the J2EE migration kit support migrating from Oracle J2EE to SAP J2EE?
2) If the answer is NO and since the documentation doesn't mention Oracle, I am wondering if SAP is planning on including support for migrating from Oracle too?
Regards,
Tobi

Hello Anirban,
what kind of projects are you trying to migrate to NWDS?
The Migration Kit (Plug-In) in its surrent version supports migration of projects from IBM, JBoss, BEA to SAP - on the same Java EE technology stack level! If you want to migrate SAP 6.40 (J2EE 1.3) projects to SAP CE (Java EE 5), there is a support in the SAP NWDS to do that. You can start importing your "old" projects by saying "migrate projects" in the import statement of the IDE.
Try it out!
In case you should encouner difficulties, shoot me a mail!
Cheers, Goran

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 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.
