Migration of EBS Linux to AIX

Hi, i am making a migration of EBS 11.5.10 CU2 of Linux to AIX 6.1, and only i have a question about the documentation.
The steps are:
1) Generate and upload the manifest of customer-specific files
2) Create the Target System APPL_TOP
3) Clone the AutoConfig XML context file on the Target System
4) Install the Middle Tier Technology Stack
5) Apply the Oracle interoperability patches
In this step (5), i have my question, how can i apply the patch of interoperability?, i must execute: adpatch, but adpatch is a binary that is in APPL_TOP and the APPL_TOP is of Linux not AIX, so the executable doesn't run. How can i apply the patch so?
Thank you very much for your time.

Hi Hussein, first thank you for helping me.
About the question no, in the Note of metalink even in a white paper of IBM the step 5 we must apply a special path a Metalink of compatibility for the new environment so in this case i need to apply the patch for my new environment in AIX.
So the readme of the patch says:
Abstract
Platform Migration patch
Update 11790872
Product Applications Updates
Release 11i
Platform IBM AIX on POWER Systems (32-bit)
Built FEB-18-2011 15:45:45
Instructions
Note: This patch is specific to your Applications system code level, at the
time the file manifest was generated. Discard this patch and request a new
one if you have applied any patches to your source system after requesting
this patch.
1. Source the APPL_TOP environment file on the target migration system
This environment was created during the execution of AutoConfig.
See MetaLink Note 238276.1, the step entitled "Run AutoConfig on the
Target Node."
2. Unzip this patch into a patch directory. This will create the
directory 11790872.
3. Change directories to the 11790872 directory created in step 2 above.
4. Run adpatch from the current directory to apply this patch using
the u11790872.drv driver:
./adpatch options=noprereq
So my question is, how can i use adpatch in the step 4 if i don't have the adpatch still as binary of AIX.

Migration of Discoverer of Linux to AIX

Hi everyone,
I want to know if somebody can help me with some information
I am doing a migration of Discoverer (connected to a EBS 11.5.10) of Linux to AIX, and i have found a document of migration this document is only migration of Discoverer between platform.
But post to the migration, i must install some patch in EBS or in the Discoverer of AIX for that working with the EBS?. The version of Discoverer of Linux and AIX will be the same.
Thank you very much for your time.

Pl identify which version of Discoverer. You will need to follow one of these Docs
Using Discoverer 11.1.1 with Oracle E-Business Suite Release 11i (Doc ID 1073963.1)

hello,
I wonder to know what is the path that can I choose to migrate the EBS 11.5.10.2 with bd 9.2.0.8.0 on AIX 5.3 to EBS 11.5.10.2 with bd 11gR2 on AIX 6.1.
According to the certification form in the Oracle support, EBS 11.5.10.2 is not certified with 9.2.0.8.0 database on AIX 6.1,
So must I start by migrating the database first to 10g/11g on aix 5.3 (with it's different patches and pre-requisites) and then migrate the OS to IBM AIX 6.1 with the right release TL4 SP2.
Or
I must start by migrating the OS to AIX 6.1 to have every thing running on AIX 6.1 and then migrate the database to 10g/11g and it's different patches and pre-requisites ?
Thank you for any help.

I have an other question
- in the metalink doc ID : (Note 883202.1) [ID 1271621.1]
Do I Have to do the steps :
- ATG Rollup Patch
- JAVA

LINUX or AIX?? Which performs better for Essbase

We are looking at hardware and we trying to decide between AIX and LINUX. Outside of the cost difference I thought I heard Essbase runs faster on LINUX vs AIX. Is this an accurate statement? Are there any white papers comparing these?

that's what i thought. thanks for confirming. it sounds like i might be able to use parallels ALSO later on to access the windows bootcamp partition, based on reading another thread.

Newbie consulting about migration to Arch Linux from Ubuntu

I am using Ubuntu until I find Arch Linux, and I feel I quite agree with its principle of simplicity. I am considering a migration to Arch Linux.
The two major aspects I am thinking over are NTFS support and Chinese support.
As for NTFS, I need a system which has the capability to both read and write NTFS partitions, and stability is quite important for me. I cannot afford any data loss! With Ubuntu, I have never suffered a data loss from NTFS partitions.
As for Chinese, I do not care about the UI language. Usually I use US English. But I need the system to display Chinese and allow me to input Chinese.
Does Arch Linux meet my requirements? Or is it possible to configure it to have those capabilities?
Thank you! And sorry for my poor English.

Runiq wrote:
ntfs-3g takes care of NTFS support. It's quite stable here, and I reckon Ubuntu uses it as well.
From my experiences with writing Japanese, I'd say that Arch is definitely able display Chinese as well. Writing chinese Characters shouldn't be that difficult either, given the fact that all Linux packages are basically the same. It's also possible to display and write Chinese characters in a console.
As for stability, I never had any problems, though it's in rare cases necessary to refer to the homepage before updating system-critical packages. I'd also update at least once a week if I were you.
Thank you!
The stability I stated mainly refers to the stability of ntfs-3g.

DB2 Migration from Windows - Linux supported with Backup/Restore ?

Hi folks,
we have to do a DB2 V9.1 migration from Windows -> Linux. Both servers are Intel based. Is it official supported by SAP to do this without SAP migration tools? E.g. with a backup/restore or redirected restore? I heard about it, but i'm not sure.
Thanks a lot
Jochen
Edited by: Jochen Raab on Mar 1, 2010 5:40 PM

Hi Jochen,
Please have a look at the DB2 docu.
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r7/topic/com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.ha.doc/doc/c0005960.html
It clearly stats that Linux and Windows are not compatible.
DB2® database systems support some backup and restore operations between different operating systems and hardware platforms.
The supported platforms for DB2 backup and restore operations can be grouped into one of three families:
Big-endian Linux® and UNIX®
Little-endian Linux and UNIX
Windows®
A database backup from one platform family can only be restored on any system within the same platform family. For Windows operating systems, you can restore a database created on DB2 Universal Database (UDB) V8 on a DB2 Version 9 database system. For Linux and UNIX operating systems, as long as the endianness (big endian or little endian) of the backup and restore platforms is the same, you can restore backups that were produced on DB2 UDB V8 on DB2 Version 9.
So you need to do an eport/import.
Regards,
Joachim

Migrate my Suse Linux users account to mac os x moutain lion?

Can someone tell me how to migrate my Suse Linux user accounts, including mail, to mac os x moutain lion?

You need write a script to map your /etc/passwd database to the values in MacOS. Use the dscl command like here: http://www.deadmarshes.com/Blog/20111105010130.html or here: http://hintsforums.macworld.com/showthread.php?t=141798
You can't take the /etc/shadow, because MacOS encrypts the passwords other than Linux.
Your users need to change their password:
- via Webinterface from Mountain Lion
- or via Server.app
- or on a linux client using the OpenDirectory (LDAP) from ML
Each mail user needs to belong to the group com.apple.access_mail. You can configure with ML-tools any forwards. Tools: Server.app (Appstore), WorkGroupManager (http://support.apple.com/kb/dl1567)
I'm migrated/migrating my users from Solaris LDAP. I'm using this technology.
Migrating the Mail system is an other task.

Database migration/upgrade from Linux (10.2.0.3) to AIX (10.2.0.5)

We are migrating 120+ Oracle 10gR2 databases (10.2.0.1, 10.2.0.3 & 10.2.0.5) from 30+ physical Linux (RHEL 4.6 & 5) servers to an AIX 6.1 virtualized environment running on two new P770 servers. Our migration approach will be to use Datapump Export and Import as we are moving between platforms and 95% of the databases are 5-10 Gb in size, so long export/import times should not be an issue. We have access to IBM's Xenobridge migration tool, but will try to do most of the work manually to offset the tool's high license cost.
Our server team is in the process of creating our AIX image(s) and we are preparing for the Oracle software installation . My question relates to the Oracle 10gR2 patch level on the new target AIX servers as our client has asked about patching all migrated databases up to 10.2.0.5.
Can I simply install the 10.2.0.1 base software on the AIX server, apply patch 10.2.0.5 and follow-up patch p10248542 before importing?
Is my upgrade approach then to simply export the 10.2.0.1 or 10.2.0.3 databases on Linux using the lower version of the Export utility and import into a copy on the AIX server using the 10.2.0.5 Import utility?
Will the Import utility take care of the upgrade from 10.2.0.1 or 10.2.0.3 to the 10.2.0.5 level?
Do I have to perform a manual upgrade and should there be any outstanding issues specifically related to Daylight Savings Time operability?
Here's my high level plan:
1. Install 10gR2 on AIX server and patch to 10.2.0.5
2. Export 10.2.0.3 database on Linux server using 10.2.0.3 Export utility
3. Use DBCA on Linux server to create "database create" template and transfer this template to AIX server for later use
4. Create "shell" database on AIX using DBCA on AIX server referencing template copied over from the Linux server
5. Import 10.2.0.3 database export into 10.2.0.5 shell database
Just wondering if all the steps in the 10.2.0.5 patchset notes (Readme for 8202632) still apply when using the export/import approach?
All feedback and comments around missing steps would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Jeff

Your approach is correct - imp/exp (or impdp/expdp) will work. You can ignore the notes in 8202632. I would highly recommend that you perform a test upgrade first to validate, tweak as needed, and perfect your process.

To move/migrate the 11i Apps Database alone means you need to follow the export/import method.
Please refer the note: 362205.1 "10g Release 2 Export/Import Process for Oracle Applications Release 11i"
In general steps to follow the DB migration is :
1. create the complete export file in source database
2.create a new DB in the target instance
3.perform the import
4.create the new auto-config and sync with apps tier

Platform Migration During EBS upgrade

Hi ,
We are planing to upgrade oracle apps from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.3.
Currently Both oracle apps(11i) and DB(11gR1) are on IBM-AIX 5.3.
also planing for OS migration from AIX 5.3 to Linux x86-64.
So what would be the better option :
1. Migrate existing apps and db to Linux x86-64, then upgrade Oracle Apps to R12.1.3
OR
2. First Upgrade Oracle Apps to R12.1.3 and then do platform migration i.e AIX to Linux.
Regards,
Kiran

We also have 10.1.4.3 SSO with AD.
Our approach is:
First Phase:
1) From source(HPUX) take export(expdp) backup of 10g database.
2) Install 11.2.0.3 database on Target ie,on Linux server.
3) Import database on target 11g database.
4) Link 11g(Linux) database with 11i(HPUX) application
5) Re-Integrate SSO with 11g database.
Second Phase:
1)Pre upgrade steps on 11g database(linux)
2)Install file system of EBS 12.1.1 on linux with upgrade.
3) Upgarde steps
4) Post upgarde steps.
Is it feasible? Please suggest.Please do not post duplicates -- Upgrade EBS 11i(10.2.0.5) on HPUX to EBS R12(11.2.0.3) on linux
