OS/DB migration from Win/MS SQL TO IBM i

Here is a novel situation. Our implementation partner wants us to install there pre-configured ECC 6.0 EHP6 system. However they have a win/MS SQL system and we have a IBM i system. We have considered trying scc7/scc8 client export/import but we are not sure this is going to work. Looks like our last option is to do a fully fledged OS/DB migration from the win/sql to our IBM i.
Has anyone done this before? Any idea on the level of complexity? How long we should reasonably allow for the process?
Thanks
Matthew Milne

Hi Matt,
nice to hear from you ;-))
As they have doen in their system ABAPs and other repository changes, there is no chance with client copy etc.
The only useful way is a full OS/DB migration.
In this case, it makes it even simpler for you ;-)
They will do an export with SAPinst towards iSeries.
You will import this export (with a migration key) on iSeries - works 99% as an installation - as they want the system in the SAME way as they do have, you even do not need to install support packs at the end - so you can say: this way makes it easier for you ;-))
You can contact me, then we can discuss in detail (that is the way, that I always prefer to install new customers ...)

  • Unable To Sync After Migrating From Win XP(32 bit) to Win 7(64bit)

    I received a new PC, dual core platform, for XMAS.  However, I received a Com 1 port failure when performing a Hot Synch to upload my PD(,M500) data to Palm Desktop on the new PC.  Palm tech support said there is no USB driver available for the 64 bit OS.  Does anyone have a 3rd party USB driver, or any other suggestions to allow me to do a Hot Synch on my new PC.

  • Migration from Win/bootcamp to OSX Lion

    I'm trying to migrate from a Windows installation running in BootCamp on an iMac (old) to a new iMac running Lion. NO - I'm not trying to migrate BootCamp -> BootCamp, but from Windows to OSX.
    The old iMac is running WinXP SP3. The Migration Assistant runs just fine, trying to listen to incoming requests.
    The Migration Assistant on the new iMac quickly finds the other machine and displays the key for linking them.  The MA on the Windows/BootCamp end never seem to get the request and just keeps on listening.
    I've tried them on FireWire networking, on Ethernet to Ethernet and on the same WiFi network. Nothing works.
    Is this a problem because the other "PC" is an iMac? The icon that comes up in the MA has the "wintel box" icon, not an iMac icon, as if it is detecting that it is a PC/Windows system.

    Olivier: I think the question here is more of how do I take all my enhancements/configuration from IC WIN to IC webclient, and the answer is you have to do it manually.
    Manie: I suggest you do a broad search on this forum as there are several threads on the "migration" topic.  You can even use the word migration as the search criteria in this forum.
    In addition you might want to post a new more specific question on a particular conversion area, after searching of course.  This is due to the fact that all landscapes are unique and we dont' know what you did with your system and what it might require in order for your functionality in the IC winclient to be present in the IC webclient.
    At this point I'm going to put my moderator hat and lock this thread as it is way too vague and the answers can be found in a search of the forum.
    Take care,
    Stephen

  • Migrating from NT MS SQL to Linux O8

    I know I can export all my sql server data and scripts and such

    I d/l'd the Oracle migration tool, but it looks like it only

    for this and was thinking it would definitely be something that
    people will run into in the future since I'm sure I'm not the

  • Migrating from Oracle to SQL Server - data won't migrate but no errors

    I'm attempting to migrate a database from an Oracle 11g (11.1.0.7.0 64-bit) database to a SQL Server 2008 R2 (10.50.4033.0).  I'm using SSMA, and the Oracle tool was installed on the target SQL Server by the DBA.  I've completed all the steps up
    to and including synchronizing the database, and the empty tables all exist in SQL Server.  When I run the step to migrate the data, I get:
    Migrating data...
    Analyzing metadata...
    Preparing table POLICYS.LOGINS...
    Preparing data migration package...
    Starting data migration Engine
    Starting data migration...
    Data migration operation has finished.
        0 table(s) successfully migrated.
        0 table(s) partially migrated.
        1 table(s) failed to migrate.
    Then a summary box appears, and there is a red X next to the table (I'm trying to just convert 1 small table to begin with.)  What immediately appears to be wrong is that the "To" table is blank.
    I've attempted this multiple times, different tables (initially tried all tables) and tried both Server Side and Client Side migrations with the same result.  There are no errors or warnings on the Error List.
    I've found another online post where the user had the same issue, but in that instance they fixed it by changing the case of the table name. I tried that, but it didn't help.  I'm not sure what is wrong that it won't migrate any data.  Any help
    is appreciated.  TIA

  • Data MIgration from Oracle to SQL Server 2005

    HI Gurus,
    Kindly please advice me how to migrate Data from oracle to MS SQL Server or Vice Versa.
    I came to know about 2 methods:
    1) Using SQL Developer
    2) USing ODBC.
    KIndly let me know which method is better. I am in confusion about both option
    Kindly advice over the same
    Thanks

    Usually such questions asked and answered on forums of a target system. In this case on MS SQL forums.
    But I will answer.
    You should create a LINKED SERVER in MS SQL that connects to Oracle.
    Then issue couple of SELECT * INTO <TARGET_TABLE> FROM <ORACLE LINKED SERVER>..<SRC SCHEMA>.<SRC TABLE>.
    Install Oracle Client and OLE DB driver on SQL Server machine.
    Also, Oracle is case sensitive by default. MS SQL is case insensitive by default. If there are primary/unique keys that have mixed case values in Oracle, then in MS SQL you need to set case sensitive collation for them.
    PS. If you need not only migrate data one time, but also to have a real time replication during an application transition period, you can take a look on heterogeneous replication solutions like Golden Gates or DataCurrents.

  • DB Size is reduced (LOB segment size) after Migration from Win To Linux

    Hi Friends,
    We have migrated Oracle 11.2.0.1 Database (64 bit) from Windows (64 Bit) To Linux (64 Bit) using RMAN convert database at target.
    After Migration i could see the size of LOB Segment is very less in targe so as the DB Size.
    Is it baecuas the conversion extracts only the used segments from the source datafilles (or) am i losing some data?

    I suspect that the source DB has many LOB rows deleted.

  • Migrating from Oracle to SQL Server - SQL HINTS

    We are migrating an SAP landscape from HP-UX / Oracle to Windows / SQL Server. We have numerous custom programs with OPEN SQL Hint statements of the form:
      select aqmnum akunum aobjnr azztaxtype a~zzservcenter
             azzassmpriok azzaudittype a~zzdr840dt
        into corresponding fields of table lt_qmel

    Question: What is the best way to make these SQL statements compatible with SQL Server?

    Hi Paul,
    as hints are highly database specific it may well be that you won't need them for your new DBMS anymore.
    In any case you've to review them one-by-one to check the execution plan of the queries without a hint.
    A general "migration of hints" is neither possible nor sensible.

  • Migration from Access with SQL Developer 1.2.2998 Does not migrate Relation

    Hi,
    I've almost successfully migrated an Access database to Oracle with SQL Developer with Quick Migration Option. Everything went all right, except for the tables relationships... they were not migrated. Have I forgot to do something?
    Thanks in advance.
    PS: Using SQL Developer 1.2.0.29.98, Oracle 10g XE, MS Access 2000 file.

    Hi All,

  • Problem with "missing" songs after migrating from Win PC to Macbook

    Hello,
    I'm trying to move my daughter's iTunes library from her old Win PC to her new Macbook Pro. I mostly got it right, but there are roughly 100 songs which do not play because they cannot be found. I can click through each and "find" them for iTunes, such that they will work, but is there a way to do this globally at once?
    I suspect it has something to do with "Consolidate Library", but I can't quite seem to make that work. How can I tell the Mac to search out ALL missing songs and reconnect them (or even move the files all to the iTunes folder)?
    I think I should have done a “Consolidate” on the old machine first, but is there a way to salvage this without starting completely from scratch?
