Hi All,
I need to migrate a same data from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 9i.In sql server Export option is there, but the problem is some 30 tables have More than one LONG datatype column in a table. That's why oracle not allow to import.
Could you guys find any tool for the same.
Please do the needful.

  • Problem in Loading Data from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g

    Hi All,
    I am a university student and using ODI for my final project on real-time data warehousing. I am trying to load data from MS SQL Server 2000 into Oracle 10g target table. Everything goes fine until I execute the interface for the initial load. When I choose the CKM Oracle(Create unique index on the I$ table) km, the following step fails:
    21 - Integration - Prj_Dim_RegionInterface - Create Unique Index on flow table
    Where Prj_Dim_Region is the name of my target table in Oracle.
    The error message is:
    955 : 42000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object

    I am using a surrogate key column in my target table alongwith the natural key. The natural key is populated by the primary key of my source table, but for the surrogate key, I have created a sequence in my oracle schema where the target table exists and have used the following code for mapping:
    <%=snpRef.getObjectName( "L" , "SQ_PRJ_DIM_REGION" , "D" )%>.nextval
    I have chosen to execute this code on target.
    Among my attempts to solve this problem was to set Create Index option of the CKM Oracle(Create Index for the I$ Table) to No so that it wont create any index on the flow table. I also tried to use the simple CKM Oracle km . Both solutions allowed the interface to execute successfully without any errors, but the data was not loaded into the target table.
    When I right-click on the Prj_Dim_Region data store and choose Data, it shows empty. Pressing the SQL button in this data store shows a dialog box " New Query" where I see this query:
    select * from NOVELTYFURNITUREDW.PRJ_DIM_REGION
    But when i press OK to run it, I get this error message:

    Hi Cezar,
    Can u plz help me with this scenario?
    I have one Oracle data model with 19 source tables and one SQL Server data model with 10 target tables. I have created 10 interfaces which use JournalizedDataOnly on one of the tables in the interface; e.g in interface for DimCustomer target table, I have 2 tables, namely Customer and Address, but the journalizing filter appear only on Customer table and this option is disabled for Address automatically.
    Now I want to create a package using OdiWaitForLog event detection. Is it possible to put all these 10 interfaces in just one package to populate the target tables? It works fine when I have only one interface and I use the name of one table in the interface for Table Name parameter of OdiWaitForLogData event, but when I try a comma seperated list of table names[Customer, Address] this error happens
    java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    and if I use this method <%=odiRef.getObjectName("L","model_code","logical_schema","D")%>, I get this error
    "-CDC_SET_NAME=Exception getObjectName("L", "model_code", "logical_schema", "D") : SnpLSchema.getLSchemaByName : SnpLschema does not exist" "
    Please let me know how to make it work?
    Do I need to create separate data models each including only those tables which appear in their corresponding interface and package? Or do I need to create multiple packages each with only one journalized interface to populate only one target table?
    Thank you for your time in advance.
    Regards,
    Neel

  • Loading data from SQL server 2000 to Oracle using OWB 10.2

    Hi All,
    I have to move data from SQL server to Oracle using OWB. Any idea how to connect to SQL Server thru the OWB design centre console. There is no detail available in the documentation. OWB cocumentation says that "OWB Integrator for Oracle DB & Apps 3.0" is available to connect to Non-Oracle Database (including Sybase, Informix, ODBC).

    Hi,
    yes, you can use ODBC and configure HSODBC on the database server to create a database link to the sql-server. If your oracle server is microsoft based you are ready, otherwise you have to buy an odbc-driver for linux, unix or whatever you use.

  • How to only migrate data from SQL Server 2008 to Oracle 11?

    According to our requirement, We need to only migrate data from a SQL Server database to an existed
    Oracle database user.
    1) I tried to do it with SQL Developer 3.0.04 Migration Wizard, But find an issue.
    My SQL Server database name is SCDS41P2, and my Oracle database user name is CDS41P2;
    When I used SQL Developer to do offline move data by Migration Wizard, I found all oracle user
    name in movedata files which gotten by run Migration Wizard
    is dbo_SCDS41P2. If the Oracle user name is not the same as my existed Oracle user name,
    the data can't be moved to my existed Oracle user when I run oracle_ctl.bat in command line window.
    So I had to modify the Oracle user name in all movedata files, but it's difficult to modify them because there are many tables in
    databases. So could you please tell me how to get the movedata files which the oracle user name in them is my
    expected Oracle user name?
    2) I also tried to use the 'copy to Oracle' function to copy the SQL Server database tables data
    to the existed Oracle database user. When clicked 'copy to Oracle', I selected 'Include Data' and 'Replace' option
    But I found some tables can't be copied, the error info is as below:
    Table SPSSCMOR_CONTROLTABLE Failed. Message: ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object
    Could you please tell me how to deal with this kind of error?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for you replying. But the 'copy to oracle' function still can't be work well. I will give some info about the table. I also search 'SPSSCMOR_CONTROLTABLE' in the target schema, and only find one object. So why say 'name is already used by an existing object'? Could you please give me some advice? Thanks!

  • Junk arabic details while transfer arabic data from sql server 2000 to orac

    We are facing problems to view arabic details in oracle which is transfered from sql server 2000 .
    In oracle database we are using charecterset is UTF8.
    NLS_CHARACTERSET :UTF8 and NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET:UTF8
    Sqlr server collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1256_CI_AS.
    we are using stored procedure for transfering data from sql server 2000 to oracle.
    And i am able to view some arbic details which is not transfered from sql server 2000.
    I thing some configuration i need to change in sql server.
    Can any one help me out from this issue?

    I know that this is not the correct forum to ask this question.
    If someone knows this issue please help me.
    We were using to import from another intermediate sqlserver and it was successfull.
    And more over i cannot change anything in oracle database which is live.
    The issue is we are using one intermediate sqlserver for transfering the data to oracle apart from main sqlserver.
    now we want to stop the intermediate and need to transfer from main sqlserver to oracle Db.
    i guess , i need to change some configuration in main sql server.
    Main sql server and intermediate have the same collation.
    Could you please help me out from this problem?

  • Faster way to migrate data from SQL Server to Oracle 10g

    We have to migrate data from SQL Server to Oracle 10 g.
    One particular table on SQL Server has records around 1.25 millions.
    We tried moving data using DTS package, but looks it will take hours with current speed of 300 records/minute.
    This table has TEXT column, which has XML strings stored. I am not sure, if this is the reason for slow migration.
    Would you please suggest better options to migrate it faster?
    Thanks in advance !!!

    Have you tried Migration work bench?

  • Migrating from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g

    Hello,
    I am a newbie to Oracle 10g and haven't really worked with Oracle since 8i. I have been tasked to migrate all of our databases and tables to Oracle 10g. I need a little help getting started or pointed in the right direction on how to copy all that data from SQL Server to Oracle 10g. I know that Oracle has an Import/Export Utility, but don't know if it can do what I need. Can some one help point me in the direction I need?
    Thanks, Marion

    Ayub
    You need to download both the Oracle Migration Workbench core tool and the SQL Server 2000 plugin (SQLserver2k.jar). You copy the plugin into the plugin directory, after you unzip the Oracle Migration workbench main.
    The tool comes with release notes and a user guide, that explains the necessary setup and migration process.

    SQL Server databases have three types of files:
    Primary data files
    The primary data file is the starting point of the database and points to the other files in the database. Every database has one primary data file. The recommended file name extension for primary data files is .mdf.
    Secondary data files
    Secondary data files make up all the data files, other than the primary data file. Some databases may not have any secondary data files, while others have several secondary data files. The recommended file name extension for secondary data files is .ndf.
    Log files
    Log files hold all the log information that is used to recover the database. There must be at least one log file for each database, although there can be more than one. The recommended file name extension for log files is .ldf.

  • Issues Migrating Data from SQL Server to Oracle

    Good morning, I'm currently trying to migrate data from a SQL Server 7 Database to Oracle 11GR1.
    I've followed the steps outlined in the guide that's on OTN and for the most part it worked well, the Data Model Capture, transformation and generation worked fine but when i try to do an online data migration the parallel DataMove threads stop working, i have no errors at all on the migration log they just don't pickup new tables to migrate data.
    After looking at the last tables they tried to migrate i noticed that this happens when the table has a text, timestamp or image column on Sql Server which translate to CLOB, RAW[50] and BLOB columns on Oracle.
    I'm i missing something here or just flat out doing something wrong with these datatypes?
    Oh btw i'm using SQL Developer 2.1 December Edition plus the jtds 1.2.5 drivers for SQL Server.

    As you don't have an error message it is difficult to diagnose. You could perform the offline data load for those failiing tables and continue to use the online method for all others.
    Another option would be to log a service request and to provide some demo data to analyse the root cause.

  • Migrating DB from SQL Server (Windows) to Oracle (Unix)

    I wish to migrate a SQL Server 2000 database on a Windows environment to an Oracle database on a Unix environment.
    Are there any issues with using the Oracle Migration Workbench to migrate a SQL Server database to Oracle between different operating systems?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi!
    After trying to migrate only a copule of schemas from sqlserver, my solution appeared by itself. It seems that something goes wrong if you migrate only selected users, so I build up a test instance in windows, made the workbench repository on it, and ran a full migration from all the users to this test environment.
    After this it was nice, cause I made an exp from the squema I wanted and imported it on production environment.
    PD: Migration logs only raised java related problems. I got quite crazy realizing what jdbc version I had, but it wasn't the problem.
    By the way, if you try to run sqlloader scripts, be careful with language issues, cause I had to reverse data loading because incorrect typos or so.
    Thanks a lot for your help.
