Migration from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle8I

Would somebody please suggest me the best way for migrating a 50Gb Database from SQL Server to Oracle8i. We are willing any third party products

Bhas,
The Oracle Migration Workbench creates scripts using Microsofts bcp to export the data from Sqlserver and Oracle sqlldr to import the data into Oracle. You can use these tools but the Oracle Migration Workbench plugin for SQL Server 2000 is not available or even in development (yet).
I hope this information is of use,

  • Migrating from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g

    Hello,
    I am a newbie to Oracle 10g and haven't really worked with Oracle since 8i. I have been tasked to migrate all of our databases and tables to Oracle 10g. I need a little help getting started or pointed in the right direction on how to copy all that data from SQL Server to Oracle 10g. I know that Oracle has an Import/Export Utility, but don't know if it can do what I need. Can some one help point me in the direction I need?
    Thanks, Marion

    You need to download both the Oracle Migration Workbench core tool and the SQL Server 2000 plugin (SQLserver2k.jar). You copy the plugin into the plugin directory, after you unzip the Oracle Migration workbench main.
    The tool comes with release notes and a user guide, that explains the necessary setup and migration process.

  • Error happened during the migration from sql server 2000 to oracle 8.1.7

    /*[SPCONV-ERR(18)]:CREATE TABLE TT_CHANP1 statement passed to ddl file*/

    note:
    chanp1 is a temporary table under sql 2000

    it seems like you are trying to perform a DDL from within the PL/SQL code, which is not allowed directly.
    You could use EXECUTE IMMEDIATE within your pl/sql code to perform a DDL statement.

  • How to Migrate my database from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle

    I want to transfer my database from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle, Can I do this without using Oracle Migration Workbench ??
    Please help me.
    Thanks in advance
    Vicky... :-)

    Do you have a good technical reason for not wanting to use the Migration Workbench?
    Given that it's free and does a hell of a lot of the work for you, why wouldn't you use it?
    Other than that, I would say you would be on your own...

  • Data length problem migrating from sql server 7 to oracle 8i

    I just migrated SQL Server 7 database to Oracle 8i db and everything seemed to have ran ok except that in my newly created oracle database, the field size is doubled. For instance a field with nvarchar(4) in sql server would convert to varchar2(8). Has anyone ran into this problem and also does anyone know how to fix it? Thank you so much.

    Hi Roberto,
    You cannot use Workbench 1.2.2 to migrate from SQL Server 7 to
    Oracle 8.
    However, the good news is that we have a new verion of the
    workbench that will have a plugin that can migrate from SQL
    Server 7.0 to Oracle8.
    A beta version will be downloadable from this web-site in approx
    one week. Eventhough this version is a beta version, it has
    undergone some rigourous testing and is very close to production.

  • Which is the best way to migrate the SQL SERVER 2000 Database to SQL SERVER 2003 Database?

    Hi,
        I  need to migrate the Production database sql server 2000 to Sql server 2003, Please give me the best idea to migrate the database without any loss data, credentials and  Objects. 
    Nandha Kumar

    SQL server does not have any version named SQL server 2003 please check the version correctly it should be either SQL 2005,2008,2008 R2,2012
    You can use the backup/restore to upgrade the SQL 2000 database to till SQL 2005,2008,2008R2
    For SQL Server 2000 to 2012
    First upgrade from SQL 2000 database to either SQL 2005, 2008 or 2008R2 and than upgrade it to SQL 2012.

    And after migration to SQL 2005 or 2008, if you want to script the database than can generate scripts pick DB and check off "script all objects in the selected database".

    We have two more customers that currently are in the process of upgrading from MS SQL but as far as I know no one has actually performed an upgrade this far.
    If you want to upgrade to OIM 9.1 you will have to wait until the upgrade scripts are available (estimated arrival H2 2008 according to the latest info I have).
    If you would like to discuss this further send me an email on firstname.lastname@my_company.com (you can get the "variables" from my forum profile)

  • Migrating from SQL Server to Oracle 8i

    Hi all :),
    I am trying to migrate from SQL Server to Oracle 9i.
    I am using the Migration Workbench.
    Everything goes fine during Capturing phase, but while
    creating Oracle model the Workbench just hangs at
    "Mapping Tablespaces" for over three hours.
    (not exactly hangs in the sense that it responds to mouse
    events and I can abort the ongoing activity ...)
    What should I do ? Should I let it go on and see what
    happens.
    I follow each and every step as mentioned in the
    documentation ... but obviously I am doing something
    wrong. Any pointers ???
    However ... if I try to migrate to Personal Oracle 8 ...
    the migration goes fine from start to end ... just that
    the SQL Server triggers aren't successfully migrated.

    You may want to start by downloading the Oracle Migration Workbench. That generally does a reasonable job in moving the tables, stored procedures, etc. from SQL Server to Oracle. If your VB code is database agnostic, it should continue to work without any more intervention. Realistically, however, you'll rpobably have to at least tweak a few things that don't work the same way in the old ODBC/ OLE DB provider and the new one.
    The hard part of migrations like this is that you may need to revisit some of your architectural decisions if you want Oracle to perform well. There are plenty of things that one does in SQL Server (i.e. frequent commits) to improve performance that have the opposite affect in Oracle. Identifying and fixing these sorts of things tends to be the largest part of a migration like this. Unfortunately, I don't know of a resource that talks addresses all the possible gotchas here.

  • 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 ?
