Hi All,
In my application, the existing database is oracle. we need to migrate from Oracle db to My SQL.
We need to have the below procedure;
1.export data from Oracle.
2.Import data to My SQL from the exported oracle file.
and vice versa from My SQL to Oracle.
my questions are
1) is it possible to import .dmp (oracle export data) into My SQL. No you cannot use .dmp which are exported from oracle using exp/expdp utility
2) which tool is better for this migrationUse sql developer to migrate from oracle to my sql
3) Can we get the migration scripts from the tools?Explore sql developer you'll get easy migration

Migrating to Oracle from SAP ECC6.0

We are planning to "ditch" our SAP ECC 6.0 to a third party vendor who is using an Oracle Database system. I have been challenged with information gathering about how we will move our data out of SAP and into the oracle database. If I am in the wrong discussion please point me in the right direction.
I was under the impression that Oracle might have a "tool" for this purpose.

Hi,
If I understand it correclty then SAP ECC6.0 is only an application. What is the underlying database that holds the actual data ?
There is a migration workbench feature in SQL*Developer but it depends on the actual database holding the data.
Have a look here -

Regarding migration of oracle from 7.3.4 to 8.1.7

Hi,
We are migrating our product.
Sun Solaris 2.6 to version 8
Oralce database 7.3.4 to 8.1.7
Pro * C 1.6 to 8.1.7
PL/SQL 1.0 to 8.1.7
Forms 3 to 6i.
I want to know what are the problems we will face and what are all the existing bugs. Also i heard that future version of forms does not support character mode and the only choice is user exit. Is it so.
I want to know what are all the problems i will be face while migrating OS,Database and application etc.
Also if any body have any guide line or check list to migrate to 8.1.7 kindly mail it to me.
I need it very urgently. If any body have any information regarding this then send a mail to me regarding it.
Eagerly waiting for a reply mail which will help me a lot.
Thanks and Regards,

Related to migration of db from sql server to oracle 11 g

We're trying to migrate a Sql server managment studio database to Oracle 11g using SQL Developer 4.0. We can successfully connect to both Sql server managment studion 8.0 and Oracle 11g using the tool, as well as click through the Migration Wizard and start the migration.
This opens the Database Migration dialog box, which indicates the capture process starts normally. we get the following error:
ora :01440 : can not insert null into migrlog (id column) ,
\and then after some time , i get an error that migration failed
i am not getting the reason,I thing it may be due to reason that , I have table's column in my source db with more than 30 character.
If i am migrating one by one table . then it is not giving any error, and identifier name is getting shrink in 30 character. but i am not getting the view , stored procedure , indexes , and others
then what is the solution for that, somebody pls suggest any help?????????????

Pl do not post duplicates - related to migration of db from sql server to oracle 11 g
Continue the discussion in your original thread
The error message is explicitly clear
ora :01440 : can not insert null into migrlog (id column)
Your process is trying to insert a NULL value into the ID column, which presumably cannot be NULL

Migrating SYSTEM tablespace from DMTS to LMTS in Oracle 9.2.0.7

Migrating SYSTEM tablespace from DMTS to LMTS in Oracle 9.2.0.7 using
brspace -f dbcreate
SAP version: 4.6C
Oracle: 9.2.0.7
OS: AIX 5.3
BRTools: 6.40(42)    /** 6.40(10) or (12) will be sufficient according to SAP ***/
IMPORTANT ***************************************
MUST DO:
1. Create a Full Backup of your system
2. Test your Restore and recovery of your backup.
3. Have a copy of all your tablespaces names on hand
4. Know your SYS and SYSTEM passwords
5. Run CheckDB in DB13 to ensure it is completed successfully with no warnings. This reduce the chance of hitting errors in the process
6. Ensure your UNDO tablespace is big enough
7. OSS 400241 Problems with ops$ or sapr3 connect to Oracle
NOTE: OSS 706625(Read this note)
The migration from a dictionary-managed SYSTEM tablespace to a locally-managed tablespace using the PL/SQL procedure DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.TABLESPACE_MIGRATE_TO_LOCAL is not supported in the SAP environment.
In UNIX, logon as ora<sid>
run command: brspace -f dbcreate
This command will triggers a Menu. The are seven(7) steps to complete the whole process. Do them in sequence, from step 1 to step 7 faithfully. In Step 1, ensure that your settings of PSAPTEMP, PSAPUNDO etc details such as filenames are correct. The rest I leave it as default and they are fine. Do not change redo log group from 8 to 4 even if you only have 4 redo groups. If not, you might need to restore the system! If the seven steps are complete without errors(warnings is acceptable), congrats. Perform a backup again.
Problems I encountered that caused me to restore system:
1./ Problem: I changed the redo group from 8 to 4 and in the later stage after the tablespaces and files are dropped, the system prompted me that 4 is not acceptable! I can't go back then so a restore is performed.
Solution: Leave the default value 8 as it is
2./ I was using wireless network and the network breaks thus process breaks.
Solution: This process in user-interactive and requires you to input confirmation along the way so do it using LAN.
3./ In the process of dropping tablespace PSAP<SID>, I encountered:
BR0301E SQL error -604 at location BrTspDrop-2
ORA-00601: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number 22 with name '_SYSSMU22$" too small
Solution: I have not fixed this yet but I think it is because my PSAPUNDO is too small(800M) so I will increase it to a bigger value e.g. 5GB
4. Problem: Unable to start sap after successfully migrated. OPS$user problem
Solution: logon as <sid>adm, run R3trans -x in a directory that <sid>adm has read/write permission. R3trans -x will creates a file call trans.log. Read the details and refer to OSS 400241
Result: I have successfully performed this on one(1) system and doing this on the another one currently but encounter Problem 3. Will update this further if there are more findings.

The current one I am implementing is a development system. The database is less than 100GB. 800MB of PSAPUNDO is sufficient for our development usage.
Follow up on Problem 3:
I created another undo tablespace PSAPUNDO2(undodata.dbf) with size of 5GB. I switched undo tablespace to PSAPUNDO2 and placed PSAPUNDO(undo.data1) offline. With PSAPUNDO2 online and PSAPUNDO offline, I started brspace -f dbcreate and encountered the error below at Step 2 Export User tablespace:
BR0301E SQL error -376 at location BrStattabCreate-3
ORA-00376: file 17 cannot be read at this time
ORA-01110: data file 17: '/oracle/DVT/sapdata1/undo_1/undo.data1'
ORA-06512: at 'SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 5317
ORA-06512: at line 1
I aborted the process and verified that SAP is able to run with this settings. I started CheckDB in DB13 and it shows me these messages:
BR0301W SQL error -376 at location brc_dblog_open-5
ORA-00376: file 17 cannot be read at this time
ORA-01110: data file 17: '/oracle/DEV/sapdata1/undo_1/undo.data1'
BR0324W Insertion of database log header failed
I don't understand then. I have already switched the undo tablespace from PSAPUNDO to PSAPUNDO2. Why the message above still appears? Once I put PSAPUNDO online, CheckDB completes successfully without warning.
I did show parameter undo_tablespace and the result is PSAPUNDO2(5GB).
So exactly, what's going on? Can anyone advise?
===============================================
I have managed to clear the message in DB13 after dropping PSAPUNDO tablespace including contents and datafiles. This is mentioned is OSS note 600141 pg 8 as below:
Note: You cannot just set the old rollback-tablespace PSAPROLL to offline instead of deleting it properly. This results in ORA-00376 in connection with ORA-01110 error messages. PSAPROLL must remain ONLINE until it is deleted. (Oracle bug 3635653)

Migrating production oracle 9.2.0.6 datawarehouse from HP to Solaris

Hi,
I am planning to move my production data warehouse(oracle 9.2.0.6) with size 600GB from Hp to Solaris.Could you please help me figure out the steps.

Migrating a table from SQL server 2005 to oracle 9i

Hi
I need to migrate a table from SQL server to oracle, both of which are on different machines, I tried using SQL server DTS export functionality selected the Oracle driver, created a DSN, but it gave error message box as shown below
Error Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers
"ORA 12560 :TNS protocol adapter error"
Context:Error During initialization of the provider
While i was successfully able to migrate the table from SQL SERVER to MS-ACCESS and from MS ACCESS to Oracle
thanks
abhishek

Hi
thanks warren, i just figured out that the DSN i had created while migrating data from Access to oracle was User DSN, i just created a system DSN of the similar kind and was successfully able to export the data from SQL server to oracle, the only problem being the column names in SQL server are longer than the limit of 30 characters we have in ORACLE..

How to migrate a table from ORACLE 10g to 8i

have table named 'liuxg_tab_01' in 10g.
This morning I exported this table using 'exp' and then tried to imp it into 8i, I failed.
After a while, I created a database link named 'ctf' in 8i which connected to 10g. I issued 'create table test as selct * from liuxg_tab_01@ctf',it returns 'ORA-01723'.
Then I extraced the DDL of 'liuxg_tab_01' from 10g with QUEST TAOD, it's:
CREATE TABLE LIUXG_TAB_01
OWNER VARCHAR2(30 BYTE),
OBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2(30 BYTE),
SUBOBJECT_NAME VARCHAR2(30 BYTE),
OBJECT_ID NUMBER,
DATA_OBJECT_ID NUMBER,
OBJECT_TYPE VARCHAR2(19 BYTE),
CREATED DATE,
LAST_DDL_TIME DATE,
TIMESTAMP VARCHAR2(19 BYTE),
STATUS VARCHAR2(7 BYTE),
TEMPORARY VARCHAR2(1 BYTE),
GENERATED VARCHAR2(1 BYTE),
SECONDARY VARCHAR2(1 BYTE)
But I can not create a table using the upper DDL in 8i if I do not wipe off those "BYTES".
After creation of the table using the upper DDL without those 'BYTES', I sucessfully executed 'insert into LIUXG_TAB_01 select * from liuxg_tab_01@ctf'.
Anyone has a better method to move a table from ORACLE 10g to 8i?

1) The particular version of 8i and 10g in use here would be useful. I'm not sure that Oracle supports database links between any version of 8i and any version of 10g, though, so you're probably lucky that it worked as well as it did.
10g 10.1.0.3.0 and 8i 8.1.7.0.0
2) What version of the export utility did you use? You would need to use the 8i version to generate the dump file to have any chance of working, not the 10g verion.
I use the 'exp' provided with 10g 10.1.0.3.0 and 'imp' with 8i 8.1.7.0.0. I have tried to export data directly from 10g 10.1.0.3.0 using 'exp' provided with 8i 8.1.7.0.0. Failed.
3) Why? Since 8i is desupported, there isn't a lot of call for tools to move data from supported releases to unsupported releases.
We have an 8i DB which is still porivding insentive services. We just wanna migrate some tales from 10g to it.
FYI, NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS was introduced in 9i, so it's no suprise that 8i objected to the BYTE keyword in the DDL.
What's FYI :P
Another option would be to generate a CSV file of the data from 10g and use SQL*Loader to load it into 8i. Not sure this would be any easier, though.

Migrating Oracle from Solaris to Linux: Trouble converting FileSystem metadata with fscdsconv in Linux (Veritas Storage Foundation)

Hello everyone,
I'm in the process of migrating an Oracle DataBase from Solaris 5.10 server to Linux Red Hat 6.4, the storage used is SAN and volumes managed by Veritas Storage Foundation on Solaris
At this point, I'm trying to convert the byte order of some volumes that come from Solaris in my Linux server using the following command:
/opt/VRTS/bin/fscdsconv -y -e -f /tmp/vxConv/dbtemp01.tmp -t os_name=Linux,arch=x86 /dev/vx/rdsk/dgtemp/dbtemp01
Note: Because of the text formating, the above command could span several lines, but I'm executing it in just one
And I get the following errors:
UX:vxfs fscdsconv: ERROR: V-3-20012: not a valid vxfs file system
UX:vxfs fscdsconv: ERROR: V-3-24426: fscdsconv: Failed to migrate
Searching for a solution of these errors in the Veritas forums, I've found this post, where the user mikebounds gives some steps to migrate Solaris to Linux. I've found that I've replicated these steps but I get stuck on the fscdsconv because the beforementioned errors.
Does anyone know what could be happening here or have any sugestion to share?
Software Versions involved:
RHEL 6.4 x86_64
Veritas Storage Foundation Enterprise 6.2.0.100 on Linux
Solaris 5.10
Veritas 5.0 on Solaris
Disk layout v7
vxfs filesystem format
Oracle 10g
Thank you very much in advance for any help/ideas to solve this
Best regards
Raul

Migration of application from Oracle Express 6.3.4 to Essbase 9

I got a requirement to migrate an application from Oracle Express to Essbase.Can any one help me if there is any documentation for migration or else do I have to rebuild a new application in Essbase with the same functionality as in Oracle Express.
Rgrds,
G.K

As far as I am aware there is no migration tool to convert to essbase and you will have to build a new application in essbase.
On a side note this campaign from Oracle back in 1998 amuses me - http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4VEEAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA17&ots=Amg-YO3m5X&pg=PA17#v=onepage&q&f=false
The line "Oracle Express Server slaughtered Arbor Essbase in both load and calculation times and query times" is a classic.
I wonder if Oracle feel the same way now :)
Cheers

Migration of Oracle Apps from HP-UX to Linux

Hi Experts,
We have plan to migrate the Oracle Application from HP-UX to Linux OS. Can you please suggest me the road map to be followed :
requirement :
Source : 11.5.10.2 + 10.2.0.4 (DB) : HP-UX
Target need to be : 11.5.10.2 + 11.2.0.2 (DB ) RHEL 64-Bit
Would be grateful , if you suggest the road-map. And suggest if the DB upgrade to be done in the beginning or after the migration.
And also , please provide the note ids to be followed for each activity.

Hi,
At high-end you will have to break up your work into 02 level:
1. Perform a platform migration from HP-UX to Linux
2. Upgrade the Database to 11.2.0.3 from 10.2.0.4
Note: I was aware your target database was 11.2.0.2, but since the latest update is 11.2.0.3 I recommend you do the same.
1. Perform a platform migration from HP-UX to Linux
HP and Linux share a different endian format, therefore you will have to proceed migrating your database via and export/import (you may not be able to use Transportable tablespace).
Please refer following:

Migrating to Oracle Reports 6i from Oracle Report 9i

Hi all,
We re-compiled original Forms & Reports 6i source code with Oracle 9i Forms & Reports.
Forms are working really nice with almost no change at all with Oracle 9ias Forms services and Oracle 8i as db. The Oracle 9ias server is W2k. Will be upgrading to oracle 9i db in a short time.
The only change we applied to forms source code was the function to call reports. We are using WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT() instead of RUN_PRODUCT.
i.e. the URl is formed in all reports as
http://ip_address:port/reports/rwservlet?DESTYPE=cache&DESFORMAT=PDF&userid=user/passwd@dbname&report=f:\web\formas\ametas\REP_DET_METAS_DPTO.REP&estrategia_par='08'&centro_par=249&depto_par=27100&anio_par=2003&TRIMESTRE_PAR=1
At the beginning we used directly the 6i reports but they were running inconsistently, after several calls to reports they got stock and we did need to reboot report services.
Then as a suggestion we re-build only two reports in reports 9i for testing. But same result when running in combination with 6i reports. Combination means, sometimes called 6i reports someothers reports in 9i.
The reports run fine several times but inconsistently. What I mean is that they can be running normaly many times and suddenly the reports server sends this message
REP-50002:Server is shutting down
DBA reported this issue to our local support but they said configuration is ok.
In other tests and only running 9i reports it seems not getting stock never, at least we run two 9i reports more than 40 times. So the problem seems to be when we run 9i reports in combination with 6i reports. We are planning to migrate all our reports but this mean to rebuild all reports again.
Is someone facing this kind of problem?
Or is this the only solution? Losting men/machine hours rebuilding the reports.
Any suggestion for my DBA to check in configuration?

Sorry for the confusion the subject for this issue should be

Migrating to 10g from Oracle 7

Hi all,
The company is planing to migrate to 10g from Oracle 7.
I have heard that it is impossible to migrate directly from 7 to 10g using dbua.
Is it possible using export/import. I have not worked on 7 or 10g.
Also how can we move from forms3 to forms 6i.
Thanks in Advance,
Sanju

As for Forms, read the documentation and view the tutorials on
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/upgrade/index.html
(especially 'Upgrade character mode Forms to the Web')
Also: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/pdf/264850.pdf
You will probably first have to upgrade to Forms 4.5, then to 6i.
Going from character mode to a graphical user interface is not so easy. You may consider a professional tool like the converter from Kumaran.

How to migrate the data from DEC RDB 5.1 to Oracle 11g

Hi,
As part of my project, we need to migrate the data from DEC RDB 5.1 present on Alpha server with VMS 6.1 OS into Oracle 11g. The size of the data in DEC RDB is around 40 GB.
Could you please suggest various ways of getting this done in easy and simpler way?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
when Oracle bought Rdb from Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) in 1994, the name of the product changed from DEC Rdb to Oracle Rdb. Meanwhile the actual version of Rdb is 7.2, so you are on a VERY old version. And that excludes the suggestions from the mentioned note to use a database link from Oracle RDBMS to Rdb, that is simply not possible with that old version of Rdb.
But Rdb 5.1 knew already the Rdb Management Utility (RMU) - I just checked that with Rdb 4.1 which is even older.
There are two commands that are helpful for your task.
RMU/EXTRACT - that writes the metadata into a file. That output helps you to build a script to create all the objects in your target database.
RMU/UNLOAD - that writes the data of each table into a formatted file (one file per table). That output can be used by the SQL*Loader to load your data into the target database.
You can read all details about these commands in the online help on your Alpha. At first, issue the HELP command and look in the output list whether it lists a command RMU or RMU51. Then run that command:
$ help rmu /extract
and
$ help rmu /unload
Replace rmu by rmu51 if the help command shows you that rmu51 exists but not rmu.
There is one caveat. Do you use blobs in your Rdb database? If you don't know that, create an the output with RMU/EXTRACT and search the output file for the string LIST OF BYTE VARYING. If there are none then you have no blobs. If you have some you need to take more care of them, they can't be unloaded into a formatted file, that must happen programmatical. If you have such fields then let me know, then I'll tell you how to get them out of your Rdb database.
Best regards
Wolfgang
P.S.: For Rdb related questions it is better to ask in our Communities at https://communities.oracle.com/portal/server.pt/community/rdb_product_family_on_openvms . That forum is watched by Rdb Support and Development.
