  • Complexities of Migrating Oracle 10g from Solaris to HP-UX Itanium

    Can anyone share their experiences with regards to migrating Oracle 10g from Solaris on a Sun platform to HP-UX 11i v3 (Itanium) on HP Integrity servers. We are trying to consider all the risks associated with such a move. How much time delay did you experience in resolving unexpected issues along the way? How complex is the process? If you had to do it all over again, would you?
    In addtion, we will also be migrating Oracle eBusiness Suite 11i (11.5.10.2).
    We appreciate your helpful feedback.
    Thank you.

    Here is more information:
    - the database size is currently about 500GB
    - our ASP allows us to be down as much as we want however the company's own needs can only allow a downtime window of two days (over the weekend)
    - i presume further that RMAN might be an option to use to backup the database and instance to some transportable media
    - it would take about four days to get that media from the ASP to our facility so durign that time the instance at the ASP would have to be used
    - after we get the backup media and load everything into our in-house site, our last step would be to find a way to migrate all changes over the WAN. I am told that unless the platforms are the same on both ends, mirroring will be extremely difficult or impossible. If we have a platform that is different from the ASP platform, then the migration of all changes will require conversion and other mechanisms. I am told that HP-UX has so much complexities that this will be a daunting task to accomplish.
    Do you have any opinions and recommnedations?

  • Migration of Database oracle 10g from solaris to linux

    Hi,
    I need to migrate a DB from solaris to linux without shutdown the solaris DB.I would like to know the backup using RMAN Transportable tablespace in solaris and migrate it to dest(Linux).

    I need to migrate a DB from solaris to linux without shutdown the solaris DB.I would like to know the backup using RMAN Transportable tablespace in solaris and migrate it to dest(Linux).
    Kindly share ur ideasIt is very much possible. In fact I transfered DB from sunos to Windows. But this is not a backup process using RMAN. RMAN is used to change the endianness of datafile so that it is in format which is required by Windows format. This transfer is possible using the data pump utility(IMPDP). There are many threads on the forum for this topic. Seek help from other threads.

    Hi,
    You can use export/import or transportable tablespaces to migrate the database.

  • Migration Oracle db from solaris to aix

    Hi,
    I would like to ask you for a best way how to do..
    We have a large international Oracle migration effort from Solaris to AIX. We have some challenges where a standard export/import will not work due to the extended distance between sites. As an example we are migrating from Japan to Texas.
    What is the best tool to use?
    I looked around and I found Oracle Golden Gate.
    do you have any other idea?
    Thank you,
    Regards,

    I dont have more info about the project but there will databases (maybe 500) with different sizes (x MB - x TB) and there could be single and RAC.
    I am looking for any tool/utility where I will be able to prepare migration document which could be used as baseline for migration all of them.I do not think it will be possible to use one approach for all DBs in your case. You should split DBs into groups you may use different approaches.
    Among 500 DBs will be:
    a) databases with "low availability" requirements where long downtime is possible. so you can stop app, take an export, import into remote db, re-target app to new db.
    b) databases where only short downtime is possible. then you can use DataGuard or some replication technologies (OGG, Shareplex, DataCurrents) to make "final sync".
    c) databases with "high availability" requirements where NO downtime is possible. Here you can use some replication technologies (i.e. DataCurrents and may be others can do it). First you copy data to remote DB and "remember" SCN you got the source dump, then you keep replicating all changes starting from this SCN. As soon as remote DB becomes in sync, you quickly switch the app to new DB.
    But I never did migration accross states (more than 1000 miles).Distance does not matter. You should have good bandwidth network connection between sites.

  • How to connect Oracle 10g from OBIEE on Linux?

    - OBIEE 10.1.3.4.0 is running on Cent 5 Linux M1 (*64* bit). My Oracle database is running another similar machine M2.
    - I installed oracle 64 bit client on M1 but could not connect to run the report, connection issue. Even nqcmd didn't helped.
    - I guess it was because OBIEE is *32* bit application and hence need 32 bit client.
    - I tried installing Oracle 32 bit Linux client on M1 but installation fails with some dependency (Not sure if we can install 32 bit client on 64 bit machine)
    Q1 - Any suggestion at this point?
    Q2 - Is there any way we could connect OBIEE to Oracle via ODBC drivers. I could not found any odbc driver/so file when I wan installed 64 bit client. Any suggestion for this?
    Thanks in Advance!

    The computer running XE server does not need a client installed.
    If you are trying to connect from another computer, install the XE client and create file C:\XEClient\NETWORK\ADMIN\TNSNAMES.ORA with the following contents (replace ip_address as appropriate):
    XE =
        (DESCRIPTION =
           (ADDRESS_LIST =
              (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = ip_address)(PORT = 1521))
           (CONNECT_DATA =
              (SERVICE_NAME = XE)

    {code:java}
    sqlplus SYSTEM/password@XE

  • 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

  • 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.

  • Need Best Practice for Migrating from Solaris to Linux

    Hi Team,
    We are migrating our Data Center from Solaris to Linux and our EBS 11i, database 10g (10.2.0.5) is 6TB. Please let us know the Best Practice to Migrate our EBS 11.5.10.2 from Solaris to Linux RHEL 5.
    we require Database 10g (10.2.0.5) on Linux x86-64 RHEL 5 and Application EBS on Linux x86 RHEL 5. Please let us know for any details.
    EBS version: 11.5.10.2
    DB version: 10.2.0.5
    We have checked the certifications in Oracle support.
    Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2 is not certified with Linux x86-64 RHEL 5. 
    Oracle EBS 11.5.10.2 is certified on Linux x86 RHEL 5.
    So we require Database 10g (10.2.0.5) on Linux x86-64 RHEL 5 and Application EBS on Linux x86 RHEL 5.

  • Migrating database from solaris to linux

    I am not sure if there is a migration section here. However, I would like to migrate a 9.2.0.8 database from Solaris to linux and upgrade it to 11g. I reckon that both platforms have different endian format and using rman convert+transportable database and so on will be work if I can upgrade the database to 10 or 11g.
    My question is that since the database is small around 35GB, can I use just exp/imp? If yes but can someone outline what will be needed to take care of the endian format and other hidden hints.
    I believe someone must have done this ------> 9i to 10g or 9i to 11g across platform.
    Thanks.

    It just depends on what how you define 'large'. Generally speaking exp/imp is slow when compared to Data Pump or transportable tablespaces (but both cannot be used in your case).
    I don't think that 16 GB is large but you have to test in your environment how much time import is going to take: import needs always more time than export.

  • Need to Clone A Database From Solaris to Linux Oracle 11g

    Hi Team,
    I am using Oracle Database Version 11.2.0.1.
    We have 6 production servers and all of them are in solaris box. We have a new requirement from application to use Linux boxes and for that we need to perform a database refresh from Solaris to Linux box.
    I can do it by Export and Import technique. But I want some other way to perform this database refresh activity.
    1] Can I do it while taking a rman backup from solaris box( Source) and restore it back to Linux( Target)?
    2] Can I do it using transportable tablespace method?
    I am aware of performing this using export-import but as our database size is near of 1TB I can't apply this technique.
    I need your suggestions in this activity, please put your opinion on the correct method I should opt for and along with that share me the supporting document where things are mentioned in step by step way.
    Please let me know if this can achieved by RMAN...
    Source Machine Make:-
    bash-3.00$ uname -a
    SunOS blrdlvdwhdb01 5.10 Generic_142909-17 sun4v sparc SUNW,Sun-Blade-T6320
    Target System Make:-
    Linux blrulvremoradb01 2.6.18-194.el5 #1 SMP Tue Mar 16 21:52:39 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
    Regards,

    Yes, you can create a backup with rman and restore in other platform, check:
    How To Use RMAN CONVERT DATABASE on Source Host for Cross Platform Migration - 413586.1

    but easier and faster will be with expdp/impdp.
