Migration from sun/solaris to windows

While performing a migration of SAP from solaris to windows OS what are the implications, issues and things to keep in mind. Also which database would give the best performance (Oracle or MS SQL) and what are the specific requirements if latest release of MS SQL is to be used the database.

> That is fine but I rather need to know that if the database is changed from Oracle10.2 to MS SQL 2000 then what can be the implications and what will be the additional hardware requirements, if the current SAP configuration is 4.6D and it is migrated to 32 bit windows server 2003.
Why do you plan to use the almost 10 year old SQL Server 2000? It's like going back to Oracle 7.x times! SQL Server 2005 would be the way to go.
> Whether shifting to MS SQL server 2000 would give an added advantage?
Advantage for whom?
- Oracle is expensive, the licenses and the annual maintenance is higher compared to SQL Server
- Oracle is complex, SQL Server is much easier to maintain
- Windows adds an additional risk (Virus, Malware) which is has to be dealt with separately (Firewalls, Virusscanners etc.) which in turn is additional work and hence costs additional money
- Windows is not always a deterministic operating system ("it works again after reboot, nobody knows why")
> My job is to give the pros cons of both configurations.
I would do some research what both combinations are able to do, if you need certain Oracle features that are not available on SQL Server, if you developers and administrators are more convenient with Oracle, if you have specific requirements about performance that can't be fullfilled with SQL server etc.
All that are things you have to evaluate and check. Since we don't know how you use the system and what you do with it we can't tell you what's "best" for your environment.

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.
"ResourceManager.h", line 100: 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.
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.

Migrate Oracle Apps 11.5.10.2 from Sun solaris to RHE Linux 32 bit.

We are migrating the Oracle Apps 11.5.10.2 from Solaris two node to Linux two node including the database Oracle 10.2.04 64 bit.
Since the applications only support 32 bit we are not able to store CM tier in a 64 bit Linux so with this considerations we are going with the below plan.
1. Install RHEL 5 as a 32 bit for two nodes ( One for DB/CM and FORMS/WEB)
2. Migrate the applications and DB from Solaris to Linux as the same node configuration that is
Node A:
Oracle DB 10.2.0.4 64 bit ( SUN oS 10 64bit) -> Oracle 10.2.0.5 32bit (RHEL 5 32 bit)
Oracle Apps CM 11.5.10.2 (SUN OS 10 64bit) -> Oracle apps CM 32 bit(RHEL 5 32 bit)
Node B:
Oracle apps 11.5.10.2 forms (sun OS 10) -> Oracle apps 11.5.10.2 forms ( RHEL 5 32bit)
Oracle apps WEB 11.5.10.2 (SUN OS 10) -> Oracle apps WEB 11.5.10.2 ( RHEL 5 32 bit).
Question : 1. Did you see any snag on this kind of migration
2. Any documentation to migrate the Oracle APPS 11i 10.2.0.4-64 bit database from Sun Solaris to oracle apps 11i 10.2.0.5-32 bit on Linux

Hi,
1. Did you see any snag on this kind of migrationWhy would you downgrade the db from 64 bit to 32 bit. As 32 Bit has lot of memory limitations.
You could keep the database on 64 bit for linux too.
2. Any documentation to migrate the Oracle APPS 11i 10.2.0.4-64 bit database from Sun Solaris to oracle apps 11i 10.2.0.5-32 bit on Linux Please see

Migration from Sun to HP Unix to Windows

Hi ,
There is hardware and OS migration activity is scheduled in my current project. To give you the detail, BI system will be migrated from SUN to HP servers and OS will be changed from Unix to windows.
I am asked to test the system to check that any existing functionality that works before migration should work after migration.
I was suggested to have a look at the Installation guide to prepare the checklist. I know that the guides are available on service market place, however I am wondering which one I need to refer for the BI 7.0 installation.
Can any one please send the link of Installation guide specifically for BI 7.0. ?
If any one has done the similar kind of migration activity before then please share the pre and post migration test steps that you have performed during migration.
Regards,
Neeraj

Thanks Effen,
DB will remain ORACLE. I have just gone through the system copy guide . I found it bit confusing
I have prepared a list of all necessary activities and check required pre and post migration. Appreciate if you just have a look at it. Add any check that you think should be added in the list.
Pre Migration check:
SAP R3 Side:
u2022Take the snapshot of SM37 for all the LIS jobs whether it is in released state.
u2022Need to flush all the delta queues from LBWE
u2022Make the delta Queues Zero (By scheduling the respective info packages for the data targets).
SAP BW:
Analysis phase
u2022Understand the BW landscape and identify all Interfaces (SAP and Non SAP).
u2022Prepare a list of all outstanding issues of BAU. Also record all problems if any thing is broken and not working pre migration.
u2022Prepare the test scripts for technical and functional testing.
Migration Phase:
u2022Run process chain to flush all the delta queues.
u2022Remove all the jobs from Schedule position; identify all the chains based on event and Schedule chains.
u2022Stop all chains, remove them from schedule.
Post Migration check:
SAP R3 Side:
u2022Change the state of the jobs position from Schedule to Release and schedule the LBWE job to flush the records from LBWQ to RSA7 as per the one Hour frequency
u2022Check the next released job time and makes sure that the LBWE job is started sending the records from LBWQ to RSA7.
u2022Take the screen shots before sending the data from LBWQ to RSA7.
u2022Check for the number records in RSA7 as well as LBWQ.
u2022After the successful job run, check for the number of records in RSA7.
u2022Make sure that the records in RSA7 are matching with the LBWQ.
u2022Keep an eye on all the LIS jobs for two or three consequent runs.
SAP BW Side:
Technical Check:
u2022Before going to start the process chains, check all the source system connections. This includes SAP and Non SAP source systems.
u2022Check the connection of all SAP source systems with BW. Ensure that the RFC connection is established for all SAP source systems.
u2022Check the connection of all Non SAP source systems with BW. Ensure that the DB connect setting is correct and connection is established. Need to check all the source system connections through DB to make sure that all the tables/Views are not dropped out after migration. If there is any table with inactive status need to bring to the notice of the admin people of that particular database.
u2022Double check all the process chains based on Event and Schedule are successfully scheduled as per the existing timings.
u2022While scheduling the jobs, there might be some chances that system will automatically postpone the loads by one day based on the job priority defined, ensure that the jobs are running as per the scheduled date and time.
u2022Need to keep an eye on all the critical process chains like APO loads Etc... Mentioned in the excel sheet.
u2022Keep on monitoring the process chains running also compare the execution time for performance check.
u2022Randomly check the infocubes, update rules, Info objects and other objects and verify that the objects are in active mode.
u2022Ensure that all externally scheduled processes are rescheduled Backups, DB statistics, monitoring processes, etc
u2022Verify that the connectivity with SAP portal.
u2022For verifying the BI Java configuration, run the IP transaction RSPLAN, open BI admin cockpit and check that it is working fine after migration.
u2022Verify the all infocubes administration activities like index creation/deletion, aggregate roll up, compression & DB ststistics refresh are working fine after migration.
u2022Create/delete/ maintain BW objects: DSO, infocube, infosource, update rule, transformation, DTP etc in dev systems.
u2022Check that Full Request InfoPackage, Repair Full Request InfoPackage, Initialisation with Data Request InfoPackage, Initialisation without Data Request InfoPackage and Delta Request InfoPackage can be executed successfully.
u2022Check RSRV transactions for consistency.
u2022Create, delete and modify the Query in query designer. Verify that the query designer works properly after migraition.
Functional Check:
Execute all functional test scripts and validate that the data is being loaded in all relevant info providers.

Migrating from SBS 2011 to Windows Server 2012R2 Standard with 365

Im looking to move SBS 2011 to Server 2012R2 standard and with a 365 migration as well.
Im thinking
BPA for AD (health check)
Add the Server2012R2 as a DC
Ensure replication
Move DHCP
Change DNS
Now this is where I get lost, now Im lost to use either dirsync or add essentials service, I have gone for standard and 30 cals with the option as I have 28 users and the essentials service would make everything quite nice for remote access and backups
etc.... however I don't know whether to just use dirsync with password replication instead ?
Currently Im aiming towards getting the dc up and running then enabling essentials on the dc but I dont know how it will effect SBS and having essentials on the same network and sync'ing people to the cloud ? So Should I use DirSync on a different server
instead to sync up to azure ?
Finally with 365 I have only ever done a migration involving an export of pst's from an exchange box and then on a new domain with new pc's and reimport the pst's on the user accounts in outlook.
However I have read when migrating to 365 was using exchange 2010 there was a application
to move everything across however you needed an ssl cert iirc ? so I dont know how it works now since the nice new dashboard upgrade (assuming the tool has been updated like dirsync)
along with the above how does AD now know where exahcnge if you use the migration app with an ssl cert and is it a case of still running the 365 config tool to configure each user to look at their mail in the
cloud ? Also is it a good idea to enable essentials from the start of the 2012r2 dc for replication top 365 or to use dirsync ?
then finally when replications is all good start transferring the FSMO roles over to the new DC and demote and remove the SBS server
I have seen (below) but i dont think it covers this scenario and I cant be the only person in this situation =\ ?

I’m a little confused with the description. Did you mean that set up DC (Windows Server 2012 Standard) and
then install the Windows Server Essentials Experience role? If so, when you migrate, please refer to the article:
Migrate from Previous Versions to Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials or Windows Server Essentials Experience
Regarding to migrate Exchange to Office 365, please refer to following articles.

Migration from Sun Java System Portal Server to the Oracle Portal

Hi, I'm in charge of evaluate the viability of a project that comprises the migration from Sun Java System Portal Server to the Oracle Portal. so I'm wondering if there is a kind of out of box migration tool in Oracle Portal or exists some guidelines to do the migration. In the other hand there is the option of migrate from Sun Java System Portal Server to Oracle WebCenter?
Thanks in advance!

The migration path for Sun Portal Server is Oracle WebCenter Suite. WebCenter is a significantly different architecture so there are no tools planned for the migration. However, we do plan to document and publish a whitepaper once we've assisted a few of the initial customer migrations.

SAP R/3 4.7 Migration from HP-UX to Windows

Hello Everyone,
I am doing migration of 4.7 system from HP -UX to windows.The export completed successfully but I am stuck during the import phase (Database upload(Post processing) .All the log files in sapinst directory shows the code page error as below.

Modified at two places in dialog.xml file, the SAP note doesn't mention "1100" in Dialog.xml as it currently shows in my Dailog.xml ,Not sure if I have to remove that too and start the import again from begening.
While export I had given "1100" as the code page and before starting import I modified the xml by removing the "Type numeric" and later during the import in selection field I couldn't enter the "MDMP" as it is allowing only numeric values.
Thanks

How to restore a Oracle 9i Backup from Sun Solaris to Linux

Dear all,
I am using Oracle 9.0.1.
I make a Hot Backup which made by Rman in the Sun Solaris
and now, I want to restore this backup to the Linux machine.
But in the Linux machine,
the database name & path is different from that in Sun Solaris.
Does Oracle backup can restore across different platforms?
Does anyone know how to do write ryman statement to do this?
Thank for your kindly help.
Wilson

You cant resore backup in different platform.

Migration from Photoshop Elements 8 (Windows 7 64 bit) to PE 12 (MAC)

I am planning to move from a PC Windows 7-based system to a MAC. As part of this move I will need to migrate Photoshop Elements from PE 8 in Windows to PE 12 on MAC. Back in July, I previously asked what steps would be necessary to migrate to PE 11 on MAC, but I delayed making the move (waiting for the new MacBook Pro) and will now be migrating to PE 12.
Do I still follow the same steps for a (hopefully!) smooth transition of my tagged photos and catalog? i.e., migrate from PE 8 (Windows) to PE 12 (Windows). Then from PE 12 (Windows) to PE 12 (MAC). Are there any gotchas or caveats that I should be aware of? I've read a few horror stories in various places and am nervous.
Thanks, Amy

I'm a bit slow on implementation. So far I have good news and bad news. But bottom line, I need some additional help.
First the good news: The upgrade in Windows from PE 8 to PE 12 went smoothly, with all tags and their hierarchical structure maintained. Ditto for Albums which showed up under "Local Albums."
I am now stymied with the bad news and hoping for more guidance: I just got my new MacBook last week, with my data files transfered over from my Windows PC. Unfortunately, the migration to PE 12 MAC (installed for me with the disc from the boxed version) did not make the transition smoothly. All of my tags came in under "Imported Keyword Tags," with the hierarchical structure totally flattened, and they cannot be dragged-and-dropped into a renewed structure into People, Places, and Events tags, as appropriate. Also, all of my Albums have disappeared.
I'm thinking that maybe I should restore the catalog. But when I started to do so, I was asked to choose between New or Original Location. Then, when I chose "original location" (not wanting to clutter my new hard drive with duplicates), PE 12 gave me a warning about the potential for changes to the existing file structure. So I stopped and decided to come back to the Adobe Forum for more help.
Thanks in advance! Again! Amy

Problems with xalan migrating from Sun One 7 to Sun One 8.1

Hi!
I'm migrating one application from Sun One 7 to Sun One 8.1, my problem is when I use xalan/xerces to transform XML/XSL appears the following error:
javax.xml.transform.TransformerException: java.lang.NullPointerException
I put my xalan/xerces version in my WEB-INF/lib but I think that the problem is that internally the server use its xalan that is a strange version, because in MANIFEST file put 2.6.0 version but I compared with 2.6.0 of xalan and it's different.
How any idea to solve this?
Thanks in advance

As you have an existing portal installation, you will need to have the 9iAS Portal 3.0.8 Upgrade Scripts in order to upgrade to 3.0.8. We expect to have these 3.0.8 upgrade scripts available next week (April 23-27) for download from OTN.
With regards to import/export, Import/Export Utilities currently will ONLY work between portal installations which are at the SAME VERSION LEVEL.
The 3.0.8 upgrade process is an "in-place" upgrade, meaning that it upgrades an existing installation to the 3.0.8 release. You will need to have Portal 3.0.7 on your new box, and then upgrade "in place" to 3.0.8 there. I would advocate also doing a "cold backup" snapshot(backup all database data and log files) of your existing production database files as well.

JavaMail from Sun Solaris

Ok, I am fairly new to Java. I am trying to send a simpole mail from our Sun Solaris box. With perl or shell I use the malix program. How do I get java to envoke the same program, or is it even possible. If not, is there a default SMPT mail program that comes with Sun Solaris that I can use as the name for the following code:
props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpServer);
Session session = Session.getDefaultInstance(props, null);
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What u can do is to envoke a class that uses props.put("mail.smtp.host", smtpServer);
here is the class file:
package com.classes.homepage;
import java.io.IOException;

Migration from sun one to novell edirectory

hello folks,
please share info if anybody have an ideas on how to migrate data from sun one to novell edirectory. help wil be appriciated. thanks

Does the documentation provide an upgrade path?
Do you have existing data you need to preserve? If not you should be able to uninstall the old version and install the the one one. You should be able to use pkgrm to remove the old one IF it was a package based install.
The changes you want to do (changing the directory tree and adding a UID) should not require an upgrade.
It sounds like you need to reed the Sun/Oracle provided documentation.
If you are new to LDAP you should probably look for a general purpose book about LDAP. The Sun/Oracle LDAP server is pretty complicated. You probably want to understand LDAP in general before tackling a Oracle's product.

Migrating from PSE 5.0 Windows to PSE 6.0 Mac

I am trying to figure out how to migrate from PSE 5.0 for Windows to PSE 6.0 for Mac.
When I migrated from PSE4.0 to PSE5.0 (windows) I simply backed up and then restored the catalog.
I have backed up the catalog from PSE 5.0 but don't know how to import the info into PSE 6.0 for Mac. Being as there is no Organizer window in the Mac version I assume it is done via Bridge, but didn't see anything to restore a catalog.
Is it possible or do I just point Bridge at my photos and get it to create tags from the keywords embedded in the pics?
All suggestions and hints welcome.

As not many users here are familiar with Elements at all, I suggest you post in one of the Photoshop
Elements
forums down the hall.
