Migration of Sybase 4.9 to Oracle 9i

Hi
We need to migrate a Sybase 4.9 Database to Oracle 9i.
We are in initial research phase and the approach is yet to be decided.
Any info on tools available and approach will be of great help.
Regards
kapil

Kapil,
The sqlways product from Ispirer might be a possible solution? I would discuss it with them. This is a very old version of Sybase.

  • Migrate peoplesoft sybase HR database to oracle 11g

    Hi All,
    We am looking to migrate from sybase 12 to Oracle 11g. We are not sure on which path to choose for this migration to be done. Ths sybase Database is around 55 GB. Below are few questions. Please let me know. The down time on this database can not be more than 2 days at the max.
    1. What is the best and fastest way to do this, if there is one?
    2. Any Documentation on steps involved in migration?
    3. Do we have to use any 3rd party tools for this?
    4. Can we achieve the data migration with sql loader, if yes is it the suggested way to do this and is there any documentation on this?
    I tried sql developer to do the migration but it did not go well and finally found that it is not the way to migrate a Database with peoplesoft environment, below is the link to explain more about what I have done with sql developer.
    If there is any other information required, below link has almost all the information.

    Thanks

    1)     Build an Oracle Demo system patched to the same release level as the current production system.
    2)     Launch Application Designer and compare the production system to the demo system so you may capture the modifications.
    3)     Load a custom table with the tables listed in the MVPRDEXP.EXP in the production system. Run a script to create an export script for all PSRECDEFN where the RECTYPE is 0. This identifies all application data tables. You may want to dms export large tables in parallel.
    4)     DMS Import the exported data into the Oracle instance.
    5)     Reapply the modifications.

  • Migrate peoplesoft sybase HRMS database to oracle 11g

    Hi All,
    I want to know if I can migrate a sybase peoplesoft HRMS database to oracle 11g using sql developer 3.0. I am trying to do this following the steps given in the link below but it is taking for ever for the convert step, I could see the messae saying building converted model.
    http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/db/sqldev/r30/SybaseMigration/SybaseMigration.htm
    The sybase database is 55GB and the version is 12. There are around 20,000 tables in Sybase Database.
    Please advise, if this is possible with SQL Developer??
    If yes, how long this process might take(for each step in the above link), based on any past convertions of the same size database??
    If this is not feasable with SQL Developer because of the complexity of the database, are there any other tools we can look into which might be faster/better than SQL Developer.
    Please advise.
    Thanks..

    Hi Dermot, Tanks for the reply.
    "Do you know the number of views and procedures captured". Below is the ouput from some of the tables in migration repositary.
    count from md_derivatives table, grouped by derived_type.
    MD_CATALOGS     1
    MD_USERS     1
    MD_CONNECTIONS     2
    MD_SCHEMAS     4
    MD_TRIGGERS     40
    MD_VIEWS     34316
    MD_TABLES     48048

    MD_INDEX_DETAILS     112043
    MD_COLUMNS     766244
    Count from md_views table 34316
    Count from md_additional_properties table 110322
    "Is there a chance the convert phase has hung, or does it refresh ever so ofter with details of another object being "migrated"?"
    It is not hung. I can see the message 'Translating views' right now, and the View names change often but not fast roughly every minute. When I checked for what the session is doing, I could see the below two sql statements.
    SELECT PROP_KEY, VALUE, PROPERTY_ORDER, CONNECTION_ID_FK
    FROM MD_ADDITIONAL_PROPERTIES
    WHERE REF_ID_FK = :1
    ORDER BY PROPERTY_ORDER;
    SELECT ID
    FROM MD_TABLES -- Some times this is MD_VIEWS
    WHERE SCHEMA_ID_FK = :1 AND UPPER (TABLE_NAME) = UPPER (:2)
    "What is the current "Being migrated" information?"
    Translating View xxx.
    "Does the tablespaces your migration repository schema is based on have sufficient space?"
    Yes, Since there is no data at this point, it is all done in one table space which is set to grow UNLIMITED. At this point the size of the table space is a little over 500M.
    "Is SQL Developer being run on the same machine as the Oracle database containing the migration repository? (conversion can be alot quicker for procedure,view,trigger conversion if SQL Developer is on the same machine as the repository)"
    NO. SQL developer is running on my machine but the migration repositary is in the database which is on HP-UX box. Below are some of the details of the server. Also, since the database in on HP-UX, I couldn't find SQL developer for UNIX. I also read in the release note of 3.0 that it is not supported with UNIX, Is that right? else is there a way I can install SQL developer on the Unix server and that might improve the performance!, if yes, please guide me with the steps to do this installation.
    Server:
    Processors: 4, CPU version: PA 8700 CPU module 3.1, clock Frequency: 750MHz, Hardware Model: 900/800/L3000-7x, Kernel width Support 64.

    I see the below when I do a 'glance' on the server. Looks like it is using most of the memory and the Swap. These are the numbers from the server after the migration started, they stay consistent all time with very small variation.

  • Migrate a Sybase 11.5 to Oracle 10.2.0.1

    Trying to use the Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.0.53. I have the Sybase database connected and can view the tables. When I try and run the Quick Migrate it fails in the PreMigration Check on "Locating Source Plugin". I'm have trouble determining what this means. I have looked through documentation and message board. Can somebody please help me.

    Hi,
    the SQL Developer Migration Workbench supports only migrations of Sybase Adaptive Server 12 and 15.
    Please see http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/pdf/migrationdatasheet_15.pdf
    You can still use the standalone Migration Workbench (OMWB) for migrations of Sybase Adaptive Server 11 to Oracle RDBMS 9i or 10g (not 11g).
    Please refer to
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/pdf/omwb_ds.pdf
    Here are more details about OMWB 10.1.0.4:

    Read the documentation given on that URL before trying anything out.

  • Are there Major Impacts Migrating from Sybase 12.x to Oracle 10g, 9i, or 8i

    If anyone knows any websites on this subject or can help; I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks

    Rudy,
    were there any errors reported on screen when you ran the SYBASE12_DSML_SCRIPT.BAT file ? If so, the data in the .DAT
    files (which are generated by this script in the %ORACLE_HOME%\OMWB\DSML_SCRIPTS\Sybase12 directory)
    may be incomplete or even corrupt and this may cause problems when the Workbench attempts to load them. The script
    reports successes and errors to the screen while it runs and you may discover what the problem could be from these reports.
    If the script does not report any errors then there should be some indication of what the problem is from the error.log
    file which can be found in %ORACLE_HOME%\OMWB\Log or from an error/warning message sent to the progress
    window in the Workbench. If you would like to send me the text of any errors you find to be reported or if you would like to
    send me copies of the files generated on your machine by the DSML script, I would be happy to investigate the problem further
    and report back to you.
    Ragards,
    Tom.

  • Migration from Sybase to Oracle

    I want to migrate one database from Sybase 12.5 in a Solaris 8 platform to Oracle 10g in a HP platform.
    I was thinking to migrate this Database using Oracle Database Migration Verifier, and I have this software in Windows platform.
    My questions is: if is possible than I use a Migration Verifier since my windows to migrate a database from Sybase in Solaris 8 to Oracle 10g in HP?
    I will appreciate your help.
    Regards.

    Hi,
    I am working on the migration of existing system in Sybase 12.5 to Oracle 10g. Sybase 12.5 and Oracle 10g both are in solaris environment.
    I am currently working on Oracle Migration Work Bench. I am facing issues with this tool. Its showing frequent errors and going into infinite loops.
    Is there any other version of this tool which i can use ?
    Is there any other such efficient tool which i can use for the same ?
    Please let me know asap as its very urgent.

  • Migration from SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12 and then to ORACLE 10G

    Hi ,
    The OWMB tool does not support migration of SYBASE IQ to ORACLE.So there should be some tool to migrate this SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12.And then which we can migrate to ORACLE which the OMWB supports.Does anybody have any idea about such tool(SYBASE IQ to SYBASE ASE 11/12).
    Thanks With Regards,
    Vinoth

    Vinoth,
    That's correct. However Sybase IQ is normally associated with Data Warehouses. Have you investigated the suitability of using Oracle Warehouse builder to assist with such a migration?

  • Migration Sybase 12.5 to Oracle 10G R2

    Hi,
    I'm planing to migrate some Sybase ASE 12.5 databases to Oracle 10g Release 2.
    The source database reside on Windows 2000 and Target database ( oracle 10g) will be running on Linux. Any idea if Oracle Migration workbench will support such scenerio where Source and Target will be on different OS platform if yes then how to approch and plan such migration, as we have to migrate mostly tables no views or procedures. Is using BCP ( on sybase) and then SQL loader ( on oracle 10g) will be an better approch ,if we use sql loader then how to migrate/create table structure, indexes and constraints etc from source to target .
    If anybody have idea please let me know or mail me , any help on this will be greatly appreciated.
    Regards

    Hi Amit,
    The Oracle Migration Workbench (OMWB) will migrate your tables, views, indexes for you to Oracle. Download it to you windows PC, it can can conneced to Sybase and generate the translated tables to your Oracle database on linux.
    If your databases only has a small amount of data (lets say <1GB), you could perform an online data move, where the OMWB 0 "pumps" the data from your Sybase database to Oracle using JDBC. Larger amounts of data are better moved using BCP and SQL Loader, but the OMWB can generate these scripts for you.

  • OMW supports sybase ASE 15 to Oracle 10g migration?

    Hi,
    I want to migrate data from Sybase ASE 15 to Oracle 10g. Can i use OMW for this purpose if not then what is the other way of doing it?
    Kind regards
    Ankit

    No, not the current workbench. We will be bringing out support for Sybase 15 in SQL Developer at the next release.
    You could try bringing the db down to 12 if that was an option and then migrate from that.

  • Migration from Sybase 11 to Oracle 8i

    I am trying to migrate a Sybase DB to Oracle 8i. The platform of Sybase system is VMS and Oracle is UNIX. Can I use workbench to migrate between two different platform?
    If not, is it the only way to export sybase to a flat file and then load to Oracle using SQL loader?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Migration Workbench is not available for Sybase database.
    As you can see on this website:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/files/mig_rel10104.html
    Only Informix and DB2 database are supoprted now with this product.
    With SQL Developer, we only support last versions of Sybase : V12 and V15.
    As you don't have any remote access to your client database and no SA login , the best way would be :
    ==>to get and export from Sybase 11.
    ==>install a V12 somewhere (on your site , you can download the Sybase V15 )and import the Sybase database
    Then SQL developer can migrate quickly your database without any problem.
    I hope it helps you.

  • Migration from Sybase 11.9.1 to Oracle 7.3.4

    Does the Oracle Migration Workbench 1.2.2 support database migration from Sybase 11.9.1 to Oracle 7.3.4?
    If not, is there any work-around or any other tool? Can we still use Migration Workbench for this migration?
    Thanks.

    It is probably best to use the latest version of the workbench (1.2.5.0.0). Migration to 7.3 is not supported but should work except for the newer features, for example use long instead of blob and clob, and do not use 8i temporary tables.

  • Migrate Sybase ASE 15 to Oracle 9i

    Hi!
    Are there any plans to support migration from Sybase ASE 15.x to Oracle (in my case it would be Oracle 9i) ?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    At the moment our current focus is the redevelopment of the Oracle Migration Workbench as an extension to SQL Developer. We have published our statement of direction here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/migrationtoolsstatementofdirection.htm
    Once this is completed, I would expect Sybase to be the next database we would upgrade to this new tool and we would deal with Sybase 15.x as part of this. Sorry, no dates for this yet.
    Adventent tool, does support this now

  • Sybase 4.x to ORACLE 7 migration

    I am trying to use your Sybase 4.x to ORACLE 7 migration
    toolkit, and found out that one file is missing under
    /convkit/sybase/chkdupnms/ after I unzip the downloaded
    sybase4x_tar.z. The missing file is DUPNMS_RPT. On your

    Hi Ann,
    I think this file checks for duplicate names. You may be able to
    work without it.
    You may have to perform some manual steps to overcome name
    collisions if they occur, but these are usually straightfoward.

    Hi,
    For SQL Developer version 2.1, while migrating from sybase to oracle, Using Quick migrate, during data move step, for the rows having ''(Blank) values in TEXT data type in SYBASE, which is convertd to CLOB in Oracle, the migration for that table terminates at that row.
    However, NULL values in Sybase TEXT data type are successfully inserted in Oracle CLOB.
    How can we overcome this?

  • Migrating from Sybase to Oracle

    Hi!
    Can someone tell me, how to migrate from Sybase to Oracle.
    Thank U.

    Hi,
    You don't say if you have used the SQL*Developer migration workbench for the migration so far.
    This has a feature for transferring data offline which should do what you want.
    Have a look at the documentation linked from -
