Moving table from oracle 10g to sql server 2005 plz help!!!

Hi All,
I have a table in oracle that i have to move to sql server.
I have exported the table and the dmp file is around 150 MB.
I do not know how to import this file into sql server.
Can some one kindly update me as to which is the best way to do this,
i know the best people to answer this would be the sql server techs but just wanted to try my luck on OTN.
regards,

Hello,
you could use the Database Gateway for MS SQL Server, create a database link that uses the gateway, and then transfer the data from Oracle to SQL Server using in SQLPlus a command like the following:
copy from scott/tiger@ora102 -
insert TEST1@dg4msql -
using select * from test1@ora102 ;
Another solution is using a PL/SQL block, and how to do it is described in the following note in My Oracle Support:
"Insert Into Remote Table Select * From Local Table" Gives Error ORA-02025 Using DG4MSQL (Doc ID 790572.1)
I don't know whether it is the "best way to do it", but it is an alternative.
For inserting a flat file into SQL Server you really need to check with Microsoft. Or you can use 3rd party software: http://www.dbload.com/

Replication of table from Oracle 10g to sql server 2000

Could i replicate table from Oracle 10g to sql server online. we have tables with same configuration and if any change happen in oracle 10g or sql server in that table we need to replicate that change to other database.
What is the solution for this two way replication between sql server and Oracle 10g

But the tutorial is saying that i will have to install Oracle database on the server already having sql server, is it client or whole database, if it is then it will acquire lot of resource.
I want to find out that for Heterogenous Service ODBC, we need third party software for ODBC Driver of SQL SERVER for Linux and secondly if we use Transparent Gateway then what are the steps for its configuration.
I could not find steps of configuration of Transoparent gateway, when i am trying to install Transparent gateway from Universal installer, it is not there. where do i find it , Do i need to purchase it too.

Oracle 10g to sql server 2005 - how to setup

Hi,
I have been searching on how to setup a connection from oracle 10g to sql server 2005 and i have to admit i am struggling a bit.
I have read about Heterogeneous Services and Database Gateway but we really dont want to fork for licence fees so it looks like i have to investigate HS.
My environment is:
10gR2 Linux 32 bit
SQL Server 2005 32bit.
Would someone be able to provide me with a list of steps to help me get this setup?
Thanks.

Hi,
If you don't want to pay for any licence fees then you will have to use the 11g Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) which is included in your RDBMS license.
You need to use the 11g versions because all previous gateway versions have been desupported for some time. The latest version is 11.2.0.3 which can be downloaded from My Oracle Support as -
Patch 10404530: 11.2.0.3.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
and download -
p10404530_112030_platform_5of7.zip
- this is the Gateway media pack and has everything needed for a standalone gateway install.
This version is certified the following RDBMS versions - 10.1.0.5 + RDBMS patch 5965763, 10.2.0.3 + RDBMS patch 5965763, 10.2.0.4, 10.2.0.5, all 11.1 versions, all 11.2 versions.
You have 2 choices about where you can install it and it would be better to install the gateway into a new and separate ORACLE_HOME from any existing Oracle installs -
1. On the Linux 32-bit platform where the RDBMS is running. If you install it here you will need to supply a third party ODBC driver. The only free one I am aware of is from FreeTDS but there may be others. There can be problems with the FreeTDS so another one may be preferable but these usually require a license fee.
See this note in My Oracle Support -
How to Configure DG4ODBC on Linux x86 32bit or on HP-UX RISC (DG4ODBC 11.1 only) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases post install (Doc ID 466228.1)
2. Install DG4ODBC on the Windows platform where SQL*Server is running. If you install on Windows then you will be able to use the Microsoft SQL*Server ODBC driver which should already be installed. See this note on My Oracle Support -
How to Setup DG4ODBC (Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC) on Windows 32bit (Doc ID 466225.1)
If you don't have access to My Oracle Support you will need to contact someone in your organisation to access the notes for you or review the gateway documentation -

Create and insert into table from Oracle to MS SQL server.

Hello,
Oracle Database 11g and Red hat 5
I have a very different kind of issue. I am handling the ORACLE db(remote db with all the important data). On the other side their is a MS SQL server db(local db with some testing data in it). All the users will access the ORACLE db for the actual processing but for sometime they need to apply some of their own concepts. So they will transfer the data from ORACLE to MS sql server.
I want to create a code in ORACLE db like a procedure , which will create a table in MS sql server , insert data into it,Also create some metadata table to keep some of my table's info on MS SQL serve db,If the table is present it should append the data, .... like many things ...
Overall my question is , how can i write a code to make these operation on a remote db, that to these operations are DDL and on MS SQL Server(Non-Oracle) ???
Please guide me with some ideas or solutions ...
Also provide if you have some good links to study ...
thanks in advance.

I'm not sure why you never visit http://tahiti.oracle.com prior to asking any question. Is it forbidden in your locale? Are you afraid of it? Will your salary be decreased when you visit the documentation?

Transfer data from Oracle 7 to SQL server 2005

Hello guys,
I am new in Oracle and I need some help from you:
I have an Oracle database 7 and I need to transfer some tables into MS SQL Server 2005.
Is there any ORACLE utility (compatible with ver 7) to help me in this task?
If not, what is the way to trasfer data from a Oracle database 7 to SQL Server 2005?
Thank in advance

SQL Server can access Oracle database via the Linked Database feature however I do not know if you could find a Oracle 7 database compatiable Oracle client to use with a SQL Server 2005 database. i would not even try to configure this.
What I suggest is you use SQLPlus to spool out delimited data into flat files, copy/FTP etc ... those flat files to your SQL Server box, and use BCP to load the data into SQL Server.
There have been numberous posts of generating delimited flat files from Oracle data posted here on the forum but here is one method that will work on version 7:
How do I export a database table to a flat file ?

How do you compare Oracle 10G with SQL Server 2005?

exept for performance and pricing...
We haven't decide to upgrade SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005 or buy more license for Oracle 10G...
Any comments are welcome!

OK I only came here because of APC's referral down the piece (I was curious where all the hits came from - cheers Andrew). Comments embedded anyway
Thanks Gaff!
* Staff Experience with product - how flexible is
your staff?
--Staff need to learn sth. new...:)That's a fair motivation if recruitment and retention of staff is an issue - if you want reliability giving business systems to people who don't know the tech is a rather foolish move.
* Current product use Corporation/group - if you have
15 SQL Server boxes and no Oracle, what is the
impetus for change? Same if you have 15 Oracle boxes
and no SQL Server ones.
--80% SQL server and 20% Oracle. We are thinking to
balance to 50%-50%.I'm curious as to the reasoning behind this? I don't really see what the benefit is.
* Features - Do you want/need text handling
capabilities? Data mining? Storage of non-text
records? XML?
--I think both of DB system can do these.They can
* Scalability - Is one Windows box going to meet your
needs or do you need to scale (now or eventually) to
multiple boxes of multiple CPUs?
--This is really a benefit feature of Oracle better
than SQL Server.SQLServer scales - it just scales in a different way (federated databases vs RAC).
Thank u for ur US$.02Are you evaluating the platform for an in-house development or a database neutral application - if the latter I'd be sorely tempted to find out what the development platform is or read the docs for clues. For example we are looking at a product that supports SQLServer,MSDE and Oracle. In the FAQ "how do I choose between SQLServer and MSDE?", if we do implement it will be on an MS platform.
I consider this probably the most crucial factor since SQLServer and Oracle have different architectural features they tend to generate different development approaches - porting one to the other nearly always hurts the new platform. Plus if I need support I'd be hoping that I got a bug fix from a developer and not from a developer whose fix was then ported.
The same applies to in-house dev obviously, but there at least you can hire people with the right skillset for the app development.

Urgent:db link from oracle 10g to sql server 2000

Hi
I have a db link 10g from oracle to sql server 2000. This was created a couple of years ago. This is working.
I have now created another db link from same oracle server to the same sql server but it is not working.
But I am getting ORA-28500 and IM002 error
.Please advise.
I am unable to understand what is wrong because I have followed the hs odbc set up on this db link in the same way as I had done 2 yrs ago.
Thanks
Shailaja

Just sorted the problem.
Basically I am using HSODBC to communicate from Oracle (on windows 2003 64 bit) to SQL Server.
To do this, I need to create a ODBC connection from Oracle to SQL Server.
HSODBC is a 32 bit application and hence we have to use the ODBC 32 bit driver when we create the ODBC connection.
When I created the ODBC connection from Oracle to SQL Server, I was using the ODBC 64 bit driver and hence the system was unable to find the data source name.
I have now created ODBC connection from Oracle to SQL Server using the ODBC 32 bit driver and everything works fine now.
No offence to anyone but as you all work using Oracle software , I was hoping a better response than some of the above responses. You can just say that you didnt understand the question or you dont know the reason why that happened.
I just listed how the problem was sorted so that any one in future having the same problem can benefit.

Migrating data from Oracle 9i to SQL Server 2005

I am new to both. I need to first migrate data from oracle to sql server. After this I need to create a daily nightly batch process to insert new records from oracle to sql server into that table.
As my knowledge in SQL server is zero. Can somebody help me how I can accomplish this.
Somebody told me that I can use sql server import/export to do initial data dump into sql server and after that I can create a link in in oracle to do new iserts for new records. does any one have some example on this. I will really apprecite this if someone can give me step by step example. Thanks

I have been to SQL Server training, but my SQL server databases are off the shelf system, so I don't have to muck with them. Anyway, Sql Server is just MS Access on steroids, so some of the same concepts apply. You need to create an external table links to oracle. The following tidbits I found by googling might help you.

What is the easiest way to export all tables data from Oracle to MS SQL Server?

Hello MS,
I would like to export all tables from Oracle 11.2 to MS SQL Server 2012 R1.
Using the tool "Microsoft SQL Server Migration Assistant v6.0 for Oracle" did not work for me because there are too many warnings and errors regarding the schema creation (MS cannot know it because they are not the schema designer). My idea is
to leave/skip the schema creation to the application designer/supplier and instead concentrate on the Oracle data export and MS SQL data import.
What is the easiest way to export all tables data from Oracle to MS SQL Server quickly?
Is it:
- the „MS SQL Import and Export Data“ Tool
- the “MS SQL Integration Services” Tool
- not Oracle dump *.dmp format because it is a propritery binary format
- flat file *.csv (delimited format)
Thanks!

Hi lingodingo,
If you want to directly export all tables from Oracle database to SQL Server, I suggest you use SQL Server Import and Export Wizard. Because you just need to follow the wizard with GUI, this is the easiest way.
If you want to make some modification for the tables‘ data before loading to SQL Server, I suggest you use SQL Server Integration Services package. For more details, please refer to the following similar thread:
https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/38b2bed2-9d4e-48d4-a33f-1d9eed1c062d/flat-file-to-sql-server?forum=sqldatamining

Retrieve data from a large table from ORACLE 10g

I am working with a Microsoft Visual Studio Project that requires to retrieve data from a large table from Oracle 10g database and export the data into the hard drive.
The problem here is that I am not able to connect to the database directly because of license issue but I can use a third party API to retrieve data from the database. This API has sufficient previllege/license permission on to the database to perform retrieval of data. So, I am not able to use DTS/SSIS or other tool to import data from the database directly connecting to it.
Here my approach is...first retrieve the data using the API into a .net DataTable and then dump the records from it into the hard drive in a specific format (might be in Excel file/ another SQL server database).
When I try to retrieve the data from a large table having over 13 lacs records (3-4 GB) in a data table using the visual studio project, I get an Out of memory exception.
But is there any better way to retrieve the records chunk by chunk and do the export without loosing the state of the data in the table?
Any help on this problem will be highly appriciated.
Thanks in advance...

Girish...Thanks for your reply...But I am sorry for the confusions. Let me explain that...
1."export the data into another media into the hard drive."
What does it mean by this line i.e. another media into hard drive???
ANS: Sorry...I just want to write the data in a file or in a table in SQL server database.
2."I am not able to connect to the database directly because of license issue"
huh?? I never heard this question that a user is not able to connect the db because of license. What error / message you are getting?
ANS: My company uses a 3rd party application that uses ORACLE 10g. And my compnay is licensed to use the 3rd party application (APP+Database is a package) and did not purchased ORACLE license to use directly. So I will not connect to the database directly.
3.I am not sure which API is you are talking about, but i am running an application of the visual studio data grid or similar kind of controls; in which i can select (select query) as many rows as i needed; no issue.
ANS: This API is provided by the 3rd party application vendor. I can pass a query to it and it returns a datatable.
4."better way to retrieve the records chunk by chunk and do the export without loosing the state of the data in the table?"
ANS: As I get a system error (out of memory) when I select all rows in a datatable at a time, I wanted to retrieve the data in multiple phases.
E.g: 1 to 20,000 records in 1st phase
20,001 to 40,000 records in 2nd phase
40,001 to ...... records in 3nd phase
and so on...
Please let me know if this does not clarify your confusions... :)
Thanks...

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.

Comparing Oracle and MS SQL Server 2005

Hi!
I'm looking for documents which compare
features, price etc og the database and database related development-projects
I'm looking for resources that describe the terminology used of MS and Oracle for their db's.
I'm also looking for "Feuerstein"-best-practices in MS-world.
And at last I'm looking for simple and complex scenarios comparing performance/features of these db's.
And if possible, I want them from some "independent" sources...
Can anyone help?
Best regards
Bjorn Dorr Jensen

Hi Hans!
I think it would not be fair comparing Oracle 10g with SQL Server 2000.
So thats why I'm looking for comparison with SQL Server 2005,
but if you have something that compare Oracle 11 with SQL Server 2005,
let me hear about it :-)
The objective:
well, the last 2 years I worked with Oracle DB (tuning, pl/sql) in an serious manner.
and now I have to work with SQL Server (which I didn't work with the last 2 years),
so I'm interested in the differences.
For now it seems that many SQL Server features are primitive compared with Oracle, but Microsofts usability is much better.
O1.) But is it really more primitive or are I'm missing the nessessary experience with SQL Server? Thats some of the points I want to find out.
O2.) Analyzing our own requirements for features: when would it be better to use Oracle and when to use MS? How to make this measure-able?
Could one make an descision tree like:
when more than x users/day and clustering needed and db_size>y....
O3.) Should I promote in an environment with people only using MS-products,
promote the use of Oracle-DB? When will this be an good idea?
(I don't think it will be an good idea the other way around: moving from Oracle to MS SQL Server - or would it ;^)
Best Regards

We maintain the employees information in Oracle IDM and we want to integrate Oracle IDM with Sql server 2005.
how we can this.

The 9.0.1.4 version supports SQL server 2005.
The latest version of the GTC db connector might also work.

DB Connect from BW on Oracle to MS SQL Server 2005

Hello,
I am having issues replicating Meta-Data from SQL server databases via DBCONNECT to SAP BW.
For instance we have the CCM DB and the Siebel DB. We can transfer meta-data from CCM with no problem (SQL Server 2000) but we cannot transfer meta-data from Siebel (SQL Server2005).
Our SAP BW is system is on an Oracle database.
CCM is on OS Win 2003. SQL 2000 SP4.
Siebel is on Win 2003 Server Enterprise 5.2 and SQL Server 2005 SP2.
I already have the dbsl for SQL server installed in the BW system. When I do a Connection Check of the source systems in RSA1, it says "Source system connection OK".
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ajay

Hi,
I don't think the 32 vs. 64 bit is the issue. Have you tried checking OSS note: 512739. It describes the prerequisites for accessing MS SQLServer via DB Connect. Normally problems occurs due to unsupported data types being used in SQLServer - in such cases you have to create views in the source system and then use these views instead of the actual database tables. In the view you can perform the necessary data type conversion.
Hth,
Jacob
