Migration Path from v2008.3 to v9.3.2

Is there a migration path from v2008.3 to v9.3.2?
Our v2008.3 environment is on a Windows 2003 server, therefore we cannot do an in-place upgrade to v9.3.2 (on Windows 2008R2).  CatalogDeployer does not work between v2008.3 and v9.3.2.
Any ideas on how to move the services from one environment to another?
Please help!

We were on 2008.3 and then went to 9.1 SP2.  The upgrade meant we had to install the last service pack for 2008 and then install to 9.1 and then install the SP2 pack.  This change fro 2008.3 to 9.1 SP2 was a big pain for us on the Reporting side.  The MyServices and ServiceDesigner pieces had little problems.  This was an upgrade from Win2003 w/ SQL 2005 to Win2003 w/SQL 2008.  We've been running 9.1 SP2 on SQL2008 for a year now with no problems.
We are now upgrading to 9.3.2 and are just going to run the 9.3.2 installer.  We will have new servers put in place with Win 2008R2 and on the database side have just done an inplace update from SQL 2008 to SQL 2008 R2.  This means that currently we are running 9.1 SP2 on SQL 2008 R2 in production.  We run a very high volume for RequestCenter so the setup works fine for us in this topology.  Going to Win2008 we are going to copy the database tables and run an in-place upgrade on the newly built Win2008 app server. 
As for CatalogDeployer, we kept the old environment and the new environment around while testing the upgrade.  This meant we could make changes to Prod using the old environment and then once production was upgraded, we deleted the old environment.

  • Final Cut Studio 2 Migration path from Final Cut Express

    I'm currently using FCE HD 3.5, which I upgraded from FCE version 1.0
    I understand that no migration path exists from Final Cut Express to Final Cut Studio 2.
    However I have seen on ebay someone selling an upgrade to Final Cut Pro 5 HD from Final Cut express.
    I was wondering.... if I got this then could I then get a Final Cut Studio 2 Upgrade from FCP 5 HD?
    Does anyone see any problems with doing this? It seems to be a way to save money.
    Thanks,
    Steve.

    And it's well worth it. you can recoup a little of
    your cost by uninstalling fce and selling it.
    What's required in order to sell it? Can the registration be transferred to a new owner?

  • Migration path from OWB 9.0.2 to 9.2.0

    Hi, we need to migrate OWB from 9.0.2.62.1 to 9.2.0.2.8.
    The server platform is Sun Solaris with Oracle 8.1.7.3 (we'll migrate to Oracle 9i but later on).
    I've tried to read the manuals but I got lost (also because the architecture of the components is completely changed and much more complex than before! ).
    Could somebody give me any suggestion or checklist or pointer to the right documents?
    Thanks in advance for any help, Carla

  • Migration path from 10.1.3.3.0 to Oracle TopLink 11g: Technical Preview 2 ?

    What is needed to migrate from 10.1.3.3.0 to Oracle TopLink 11g Preview 2?
    Does using Java 5 and swapping the Jar files are enough?
    Can I use as is all the configurations generated by TopLink Workbench 10.1.3.3.0?
    What is working in 10.1.3.3.0 that is not yet or will not be working in Oracle TopLink 11g?

    If you open the project in the 11g preview it will automatically update the metadata and generate the deployment XML in the new format. Alternatively you should be able to open the 10.1.3.3 metadata in the 11g preview's runtime.
    The biggest issue you may encounter in the upgrade besides replacing the libraries and ensuring you are using JDK5 is the removal of the code deprecated in previous releases.

  • What's the migration path from ACS v3.3 to ACS v5.1?

    It's a standalone appliance 1112 running on ACS v3.3, how to migrate to another standalone appliance 1120 with ACS v5.1?
    Does CISCO have any documents about this?
    I remember I used to read an article about how to build a temp ACS v4.2 windows to help this kind of migration, could anyone help to send the doc link to me?

    Your basic assumption is correct. There needs to be a two stage process where first migrate to ACS 4.2 on Windows and then from there perform migration to ACS 5.0/5.1.
    When ordering ACS 5.0/ACS 5.1 the disk set includes all the software required to perform this upgrade.
    Going from from 4.2 to ACS 5.0/5.1 is migration; not upgrade; since need this reads a subset of the data items from ACS 4.2 and creates them on ACS 5.0/ACS5.1. This includes the bulk objects such as devices and internal users. However, the policy configuration on ACS 5.1 needs to be performed manually since follows a very different concept.
    The migration guide can be found at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_system/5.1/migration/guide/Migration_Book.html

  • 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.

  • What migration path from 10.g AS tiers to Fusion Middleware 11g AS tiers ?

    Hi all,
    We have purchased Oracle AS Enterprise Edition 10g a couple of months ago and
    we are currently running the following tiers :-
    - one Forms & Reports 10.1.2 AS instance,
    - one infrastructure 10.1.4 instance for OID/SSO,
    - one OC4J 10.1.3 instance for ADF applications deployment.
    What would be the new tiers et their respective downloads to migrate to 11g with AS EE licences acquired and protected under OTS without having to purchase any new products or options ?
    -Portal,Forms,Reports,.. 11g for Forms & Reports. (seems clear in the download list).
    -What about ADF 11g deployment ? What to download ? (seems to be Web Logic Server in the Required Additionnal software section but not sure)
    -What about OID/SSO ? What to download ? (it seems Forms & Reports 11g will work with OID/SSO 10.1.4 but what about ADF 11g apps deployed on WLS ? it is also going to be able register with 10.1.4 ?
    Any clarification will be most welcomed.
    Thanks.

  • TS2951 what is the migration path from 10.5.8 on an iMac to the latest OS Mountain Lion

    I have an intel Imac with osx 10.5.8  What is the proper way to upgrade the OS to current Mountain Lion and NOT lose my personal data?

    Back up your data, phone the online Apple Store, order a Mac OS X 10.6 DVD, buy at least 1GB more RAM for your computer, install the DVD, run Software Update, and if your Mac supports Mountain Lion, get it from the Mac App Store.

  • Migration Path for Organizer?

    Out of curiousity, what are the "natural" migration paths from Organizer?  Do any software "read" the Organizer DB and convert to their own format (ACDSee?  Lightroom?)?
    I'm not planning to move off Photoshop Elements any time soon, but Organizer doesn't appear to get a lot of attention from Adobe and lots of us like to have a Plan B.
    I'm not too concerned about Slide Shows (I like JAlbum) or the "map" feature (other free or cheap applications do map tagging in an easier and more standard way).  I'm mostly concerned about tags, notes and collections.
    I know you can force Organizer to write the tags out to the fiel in a standard way (IPTC categories I think) and comments and dates are written to the EXIF header.  But that's "Plan C" ;-}

    solon48 wrote:
    Before jumping into the migration/conversion process, I would like to get an excellent understanding of the problems and limitations of the conversion process. Is there a book or document that provides an extensive description of the conversion process and identifies comprehensively and fairly the problems and limitations of such a conversion?
    Also, in order to learn to use efficiently Lightroom: is there one or two books that you would recommend me more than others?
    Finally I have also a probably simple question: I am not motivated at all to use RAW because of the huge amount of Disk Space required for 30'000-50'000 RAW Photos (andbecause of the time and Disk space required for Backups of such large amounts of Photos). Will I be able to use all (or most?) nice features of Lightroom, even if I continue to use jpeg File formats?
    There is no book that covers conversion from PSE to Lightroom.
    In general, the conversion from PSE to Lightroom does most of what you would want it to do, so I wouldn't fear the process. The conversion from PSE to Lightroom is not perfect; for one thing, version sets are lost, as there is no concept of version sets in Lightroom. Stacks are maintained upon conversion. Tag hierarchies don't show up in LR exactly as they were in PSE; but its relatively easy to recreate your hierarchies in Lightroom.
    I recommend Martin Evening's book, The Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 2 Book: The Complete Guide for Photographers. I have become quite dis-illusioned with Scott Kelby's books for a number of reasons, so I dis-recommend them.
    Your disk space problems exist whether or not your photos are in Lightroom or PSE or neither or both. Lightroom doesn't make this worse or better. Getting more disk space makes this better. Lightroom is an excellent program for RAW photos; it is just as excellent for .jpg photos. What you lose in photo quality is not because of Lightroom's ability to handle .jpg photos; you lose in photo quality because your originals are .jpg and what ANY program can do with these is less than what ANY program can do with RAW photos.
    And by the way, I find myself frightened by the thought that someone has 30000 to 50000 photos and doesn't do backups because of disk space problems. This is a recipe for having zero photos some day when your hard drive crashes. If you can't make backups because of disk space issues, I would strongly recommend that you remedy this by getting another hard disk before you address any conversion to Lightroom issues. Spend that money on a disk drive rather than on Lightroom

  • Migration path - Consolidated tool / doc

    Is there a consolidated document / tool (like CFO) to know the migration path from the source and destination version.

    Hi,
    If you want to migrate a planning application from 9.2 to 11 then you can use the same method as migrating across any version.
    Basically using the copying schema/database method which has been covered many many times on here.

    I just finished migrating a client from Google Apps to Microsoft Exchange Online using the IMAP option in the Microsoft Online Services Migration Tool.  
    I added the mailboxes by creating a CSV file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_Mailboxes.csv] in the following format:
    SourceIdentity,SourceServer,SourceLoginID,SourcePassword,TargetIdentity
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword1,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword2,[email protected]
    [email protected],imap.gmail.com,[email protected],P@ssword3,[email protected]
    Then I created a custom folder map XML file [i.e. GoogleApps(Gmail)_FolderMap.xml] to map the Google Apps (Gmail) labels to the appropriate Exchange (Outlook) mailbox folders and create those that didn't exist (i.e. Important, Starred, Follow up,
    Misc, Priority) as sub-folders under the Inbox:

    Additionally, I had to tell the Internet E-mail Mailbox Migration Wizard to use the "Individual Account Credentials" option since I was able to specify each account password in the CSV file when adding the mailboxes to Microsoft Online Services Migration
    Tools console.
    Just to note, the users had to manually export their contacts to a CSV file and calendars to iCal (ICS) files in order to import those items into Outlook.
    I hope this will benefit others since Microsoft doesn't seem to have a custom, specifically defined migration strategy for this scenario.  With Google Apps being in direct competition with BPOS/Office365, I assumed that Microsoft would have a simple
    strategy using something like ActiveSync to facilitate the migration of email, contacts, calendar entries, etc.  Hopefully we'll see something along those lines become available in a future release of the migration tools.

  • Reasons Adobe should write a migration manual from FH to AI

    what my friend wrote me...
    About FHMX, how about educating people why Freehand is so
    much better than
    ill, and publishing a migration guide from ill to Freehand.
    Maybe you and I
    can join Adobe and implement this program! As a matter of
    fact I've already
    written the introduction to the guide.
    Top reasons why I love using Freehand MX over Illustrator for
    the work we
    do. Try it, and you'll like it too.
    •Gouping and ungrouping is time consuming in ill. If an
    object on the bottom
    is grouped, the whole group is selected. Selecting the bottom
    object is
    useless unless you ungroup all. Very time consuming.
    Freehand can select one element even if it's part of a group.
    • It is common in ill & FHMX to hold down shift
    while clicking on objects to
    select several at a time. ill has a tendency to 'pick up'
    & move those
    objects as your moving from one to the other. Which means
    having to back up
    your last step and then continue.
    •• ill select/same/stroke colour, fill colour
    etc. VS FHMX 'find & replace'
    In ill available only 'document wide' which forces you to
    take the selection
    and place it in a new document (usually a temporary measure
    ill forces upon
    you).
    All this copying takes extra time when the art is complex.
    Since changing colours is often the goal, opening a new
    document means
    having to drag into the new doc, all the colours you'll be
    needing to
    change.
    Also when choosing same fill & stroke colour, ill doesn't
    catch everything,
    so you have to try several times to get everything.
    FHMXs 'find & replace' runs on whatever you select,
    without requiring
    copying
    the info to a new document, so there is no waiting like in
    ill. And it
    catches everything all in one shot. Wham, bam thank you maam.
    FHMXs 'find &
    replace' light years ahead of ill.
    • Multiple page documents
    FHMX multi page documents can be of different sizes and
    orientation within a
    single document. Ill must have the same size and orientation.
    Ill allows only one page size & page format while FHMX
    permits you to use
    any combo within the same document, all with the click of a
    button. Job's
    done.
    ill: go into doc setup and calculate new overall width.
    "let's see I need 5 pages of 8.5x11 so that's 8.5" x 5 pages
    =42.5" width.
    If you add a page, all the doc info gets shifted off center.
    Ill requires
    you to select all, (make sure nothing is locked!) and
    recenter all the
    pages. All time consuming and unnecessary in FHMX.
    Ill can't handle multiple pages when it come time to print
    them all. In
    order to be able to print an 8 page document with simple
    vector art (without
    any linked files) in illustrator, it was necessary to convert
    the document
    to 8 single page documents. Each page took 5 minutes , 40 min
    total.
    FHMX prints multiple page documents with no hesitation.
    ••ill has no collect for output. This is
    ridiculous. FHMX enables you to
    enjoy creating freely without having to think of where that
    tiff you just
    imported came from. When the art is finished in FH, click
    'collect for
    output' and in under 5 seconds a complete folder is created
    of everything
    you need to backup that artwork.
    Never spend one second looking for anything again when
    opening a freehand
    document. Not today, not tomorrow, or in three months.
    In ill, after the art is done, you need to spend the time
    looking for those
    linked files, to gather them into a folder. And when a
    deadline is so
    important, will you actually take the time? NO! So days,
    weeks, or months
    later, when you need to open the file and the tiff is
    missing, well, I hope
    you like treasure hunts, because with time tiffs can be moved
    or go missing.
    With this one feature, FH saves hours of time per year over
    ill.
    •Pathfinder/combine in ill is slow ad often crashes the
    program. (See next
    point) Freehand unite is Fast!. ill requires you to ungroup
    all elements
    before using the filter. FHMX doesn't.
    ••Paste inside.
    FHMX enables you to use garment sketches without modifying
    shapes to
    accommodate a tiff pasted inside. Tons less work over ill.
    'Paste inside' in
    FHMX is fast & effortless, encouraging you to paste
    inside each individual
    shape of the garment. (Ex. Belt loops, waistband, pockets,
    body. All get
    their own tiff pasted inside.) This gives the artist freedom
    over each
    individual tiff. Changes can be applied in light/dark or
    angle to each tiff
    seperatly from one another.
    Ill cannot do this without a massive investment in time, it
    doesn't even
    compare with the ease of FHMX. ill method is also a pain to
    work with ,
    requiring you to lock/unlock items as the masks bounding box
    is often in the
    way. This requires you to lock nearby elements in order
    select. Very
    annoying. This work around is so time consuming it
    discourages you to paste
    inside individual shapes. In fact it's impractical to do so.
    You're forced
    to combine all shapes and paste one tiff into this one
    overall shape, which
    is time consuming because it increase your workload to
    achieve a lesser
    result.
    Ill requires you to draw a duplicate shape which must lie in
    perfect
    register with the shape underneath it. Shapes are often
    composed of highly
    complex components (ex:text) that need to be united into one
    overall shape,
    to paste into. Often these complex shapes crash illustrators
    unite filter,
    making the job time consuming or impossible. FHMX requires
    none of this
    workaround, because FHMX enables you to past into individual
    shapes.
    FHMX can even paste inside a paste inside, and in easily
    accesible layers,
    creating realistic effects. Don't even dream of doing this in
    ill.
    •ill toolbox. The 'Venus' girl at the top of the box is
    often clicked in
    error resulting in an annoying 'Adobe online' dialogue box
    appearing. So
    annoying! Bury this feature elsewhere, or at least move it
    away from the two
    arrow tools, the two most used tools of the whole program!
    Stop interrupting
    workflow!
    •Ill locking unlocking frenzy
    You'd like to add a point to a path. In FHMX, select the path
    and click on
    it
    with the pen tool. You're done.
    In ill, select the path and click on it with the pen tool +.
    But ill adds
    the point to the path in front, even though you selected the
    one in back!
    Ill forces you to lock the front path to get to the rear
    path. If your
    artwork has many layered paths, get ready to go on the usual
    locking frenzy
    until you get to the path you need. All this just to add a
    point.
    As an added bonus, ill often throws the "Can't add an anchor
    point. Please
    use the add anchor point tool on a segment of a path"
    dialogue box in your
    face, as if you can't aim a point on a path.
    Paste inside
    • Because paste inside in ill is so complicated, a
    common workaround is to
    create a pattern swatch to achieve the same ease as in FHMX.
    However pattern
    swatches are simple vector paths that can't match the
    subtlety of a tiff.
    When opening a new document, swatches have to be brought in
    to the new
    document to be used.. When changing a pattern colour, a new
    swatch has to be
    created, which is more time consuming than changing the tiff
    colour in FHMX.
    5 seconds vs. 5 minutes
    • The arrow+ tool in Ill selects in increments of one
    group at a time. FHMX
    selects in increments of one element at a time, giving the
    user greater
    control over elements within groups.
    • In Ill before using Pathfinder/Unite, you should
    save, because pathfinder
    tool often crashes the program. Since large documents take
    time to save,
    waiting time in Ill multiplies. FHMX doesn't crash when using
    the pathfinder
    tool so much time and frustration is saved.
    Sometimes Pathfinder in Ill just won't work the way it's
    expected to. I wind
    up importing the art into FHMX where it works fine and
    instantly.

    I think what Morty said needs to be reminded here:

    Should we read anything into Adobe putting out the Freehand
    to
    Illustrator migration guide you posted about?
    No, that's something that Adobe has planned for quite some
    time. I hinted to its release several months back when we were all
    discussing how Adobe should produce such a document. This "rumor"
    that I refer to is something that surprised me as well. I have yet
    to confirm it though...
    Mordy
    Since Adobe was planning this for some time, let's not jump
    to conclusions. Mordy did confirm to us that there is indeed a
    Product Manager for FreeHand. Also, it's interesting to note that
    Adobe has a different situation on their hands than they did with
    Pagemaker. What we have is two competing (?) programs, FH and Illy,
    they are both truly loved by their devoted users. Adobe probably
    realizes that they gave to keep both because the users of either
    program have been devoted for years. Neither Illy or FH users would
    be happy about migrating. Adobe I'm sure will keep both programs
    (at least I'm hoping they are smart enough to). When Adobe migrated
    Pagemaker users to InDesign, InDesign was a new tool. Illy is old
    like FH...you ca't force a migration to a tool that is just as old
    as the one your migrating from.

  • How to migrate content from BW 3.1 to NetWeaver 7.0

    Hello all out there,
    For a couple of years I have been successfully using SDN, finding always the right answer to my questions, however in my late assignment things have not been running that smoothly.
    This is my first posting to SDN and I hope any of you out there can give me a hand.
    <b>My Case:</b>
    We are planning to upgrade from BW 3.1 directly into NetWeaver 7.0
    <b>Our previous research within our planning phase has taking us to read:</b>
    •Everything under the Marketplace NetWeaver Upgrade portal (https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/upgradenw70)
    •Upgrade Master Guide
    •Many docs in SDN
    <b>My Question:</b>
    Based on our research, we have a good understanding about the technical upgrade path and the creation of a new landscape. However anything we have read explains about how to migrate our actual Queries, ODS, Web Templates, Infocubes, Update Rules, InfoObjects, etc to the new environment.
    <b>Could you please point me to the right literature, how to guide, migration path, etc; explaining how to migration content from BW 3.1 to NetWeaver 7.0</b>
    Thanks
