Testing migration

Hello,
We are in the process of migrating from Designer 6 to 10g. I have managed to migrate selected application systems successfully from 6 into 10g.
I want to be able to verify that the migration has worked.
I found the following in the Oracle Designer 6i Migration Guide (from Nov 2000).
'Verify the migrated structured data. Apply the following checklist for your migrated structured data:
- All selected application systems in your Oracle Designer 6.0 repository should also be available in the Oracle Designer 6i repository.
- All shares should be translated as "short cuts".
- Your version tree - if applicable - should be comparable with your "object versions" captured in diferent application systems in previous releases of Oracle Designer.'
I can see that all my v6 application systems are available in 10g (and got no error messages during the migration), but this doesn't seem to be a definitive statement of successful migration to me.
Is anyone aware of some scripts that could be used for this? All I can think of (for DDL) is to generate it from 10g and compare it the v6 DDL.
Thanks,
Antony

Anthony,
The risk in your migration is not in the DDL generator, but in the Forms generation (if you're using that). Because you're switching from client to the web, some functions will not work (or different) than before. For example: CLIENT_TEXT_IO vs. TEXT_IO...
Also you will notice some lay-out differences...
For your DDL comparison you can generate your whole schema in both versions and execute a compare. Or generate a 'difference' DDL from your 10g version to the present database (which should be generated with the 6-version) : but first generate a 'difference' DDL from the 6-version to check the repository and your database are in sync - before you jump to conclusions.

Test migration to linux using vmware

I was wondering if in doing a migration from netware to linux that it would be a good idea to do a test migration in a virtual environment (i.e. grab an image of my current netware server and build a virtural sles and do the migration as a test there first?
Anyone tried this?
Thanks!

Well, I've done plenty of test migrations with VMWare, certainly, but it
really depends on how big your GW system is, etc. whether it's really worth
it. I know it sounds like a "scary" proposal, but it's really not that
difficult of a procedure overall.

Testing migration 11.2 using 12 drivers

hi -
    We are planning to update our servers from 11.1 to 11.2.    We are thinking about using the Oracle 12 jdbc driver since it's backward compatible. For our testing, we thought about testing our triggers, views, tables (all different column types).   Mainly structure.   But, the thought came up to do a full regression test on our applications.   Some people thought that some queries may not work, but others would so we would need to test every query.
   Can anyone provide some experience/guidance on the version 12 drivers, or if you had issues when updating the driver from one version to another?
thanks

     Some viewpoints are if we upgrade to the 12 driver, we need a full regression test on every single query.   Others think performing a subset of queries is sufficient.   So, I am just looking for testing viewpoints/experience/opinions.
And I thought I provided that viewpoint/experience/opinion.
THERE IS NO 12 DRIVER! As I just said above:
The JDBC jar file is independent of the Oracle database. The correct JDBC jar file to use depends on the version of Java that you need to support for the client applications that use that version of java.
You need to disassociate JDBC from the Oracle DB or Oracle 12.
The decision as to which jar version to use depends on the functionality that you need for your client application.
    So, my original questions stands.   I'm looking for someone that can provide guidance that if I were to upgrade to the ojdbc6 jar/driver in Oracle 12 from using the odjbc6 jar/driver in Oracle 11.   That's all I am asking.   I think this thread has gone down the path of JDBC drivers instead of testing.
And my original answer stands. You have NO BASIS for upgrading your JDBC jar file. NONE! NADA! ZIPPO!
You should NOT upgrade your JDBC jar file unless you have some rational basis for doing so. You have NOT provided ANY rational basis for doing so. Worse, you keep referring to an 'Oracle 12 driver' and there IS NO SUCH THING!
Why, on Earth, would you want to change from something that you know works and provides the functionality you need?
What you have works. Staying with what you have requires NO 'full regression test on every single query', no 'performing a subset of queries', no nothing, nada, zippo!
If that isn't a viewpoint/experience/opinion on testing I don't know what is.
NO TESTING IS NEEDED! Either stay with the driver you have or post information showing that your current driver is not meeting your requirements in some fashion.
I tried to explain that just because a jar file (e.g. one that ships with Oracle 12DB) has the name 'ojdbc6.jar' does NOT mean it has something better than what you are using. I tried to explain about the versions. For all you know the jar included with Oracle 12DB is OLDER than the one you are now using and actually has LESS functionality. Did you even check the actual versions as I alluded to?
Those 'some viewpoints' may be leading you to replace your current driver with one from the 12c release that is actually OLDER!
Even, on the remotest chance that you somehow needed a newer driver, or wanted to test and use a newer driver you should download the latest ojdbc7.jar file from the link I posted and test/use that one and NOT the ojdbc7.jar file that ships with 12c.
I'm done here. Either I'm not making myself clear or I'm telling you something you just don't want to hear. You can complain about the 'messenger' if it makes you feel better but that doesn't change the reality of the message.
That message is:
NO TESTING IS NEEDED! Either stay with the driver you have or post information showing that your current driver is not meeting your requirements in some fashion.

Test Migration with existing database

Hi,
I am new to Sharepoint. I would like to know if it is possible to do a copy of the exiting database and use it in a test environment on a different server?
I am currently using wss 3.0 and I would like to test how smoothly it would be to upgrade to 2010.

Hi Jemelia,
Yes this is possible, please refer this MS article which explains different methods to achive this

Export data from database table before database migration

Hello,
We are planning to migrate our SAP ERP 6 Ehp4/NW7.01 from Oracle 11.2 to IBM DB2 v. 9.7 database. During test migrations I have established that we spend a lot of time for one particular table (COEP). Because we donu2019t have possibility to archive this table before migration I have an idea to export data from previous years from this table to the file system (using an ABAP report), delete those data from table before migration and then after migration, import back to the database from the file system.
Does anybody have any concerns or suggestions about this idea?
Thank you for your answers
Andrej

Hello Andrej,
I strongly do not recommend to do so.
I am not sure whether technically this could work at all..
Even it if would work .. In order to really save time, the export and the import would have to be a dirty one (meaning the system is operational and in production). With this there is a high risk to produce inconsistencies on this table. And you most likely will receive no support if something unforeseen happens and you end with problems.
Also your approach (if it should work at all) , would have to be tested thoroughly by you , also protecting the table from any changes.
I do not believe that this can save any effort compared to implementing advanced migration techniques like table splitting.
On top, you would go high risk to end with an unsupported system, with not using official migration procedures

AR open Items Migration with Dunning history

Dear Experts,
Please could you share your opinion and experience in the below issue
We are migrating AR open items data from one company code (say AB01) to another company code (say AB02) within SAP, we are following the approach, download AR open items fromAB01 and Migrate to AB02 with same parameters of AB01 (document date, baseline date, assignment number, text, payment terms every thing is same, there will be no change)
Now the question Iu2019ve is whether dunning history can migrate to company code AB02, please have a look it the following example to understand the issue
AB01 data
Customer      Open item amount     Current dun level     last dun date
100015     1000               1     10.05.2009
100015     2500               2     10.05.2009
100015     500               4     10.05.2009
Over all customer dunning status is : Highest level is 4
Now we wanted to migrate same data to AB02 including dunning history.
Certainly, we can migrate above open items data with dunning level, and master data history as well.
Having said that, will the system able to dun next dunning level in AB02 (in the above example it should be level 5). .?
Please could you advise me possible options which you had come across.
My opinion is, system has to determine levels and update history in systematic way, rather than manipulating in our style.
(Information: Iu2019d had quick test migrating test data into new company code AB02 including history which is same as AB01 and MHNK table history, even though system has not picked next dunning level)
Would appreciate your replies.

Prab

Hi, I'm wanting to do the same thing. Were you able to figure this out? Regards, Adrien.

Migration to new G/L

Hi gurus;
Does anyone have a clear idea about migration? Does Migration from classic G/L to new G/L mean that
transferring of only open items and the balance carry forward for prior years from migration date
and all items for the migration year to new G/L ? Or does it depend on the migration scenario you purchase?
We are at a test stage of migration for the time being and I hope we have done something wrong to achieve this result. What is in our hands is merely frustration. I would have hoped that I can see the balance of all G/L accounts for the prior years from migration just like the view FS10N especially after paying (the cost is not nuts) for this service.
I would like to hear from someone else that this is the case after migration or I would have been very pleased to hear that I can see the balance of all G/L accounts for prior years from migration and thus have done something wrong in the migration cockpit.
Thanks and regards,
Gökçen.

There are some very useful questions and answers, and this should help you with the planning of your project.
https://websmp130.sap-ag.de/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=1070629&nlang=EN&smpsrv=https%3a%2f%2fwebsmp101%2esap-ag%2ede
Here are some useful Q & A's
17. Is it possible to upgrade to ECC5.0 or ECC6.0 and migrate from the classic General Ledger to the new General Ledger in the same fiscal year?
If you intend to use document splitting in the new General Ledger, activate the function for validating the document splitting in your productive system before the migration date. This means that you should upgrade to ECC 6.0 in one fiscal year, activate document split validation before the end of that fiscal year and migrate to the new General Ledger in the next fiscal year.
If you do not plan to use document splitting in the new General Ledger, you can upgrade to ECC5.0 or ECC6.0 and migrate to the new General Ledger in the same fiscal year.
Keep in mind that the function for validating document splitting is not available in ECC5.0.
24. How should I check data consistency in the classic General Ledger before the beginning of the first test migration?
To check data consistency in the classic General Ledger before the beginning of the first test migration, proceed as follows:
1) Program RFINDEX
Execute the program RFINDEX twice.
In the first run, choose "Documents vs Indexes" in the selection screen.
In the second run, choose "Indexes vs Documents" in the selection screen.
For more information, see the program documentation.
If the program finds any differences, create a message on SAP Service Marketplace under the component FI-GL-GL-X.
2) Program SAPF190
Run program SAPF190 for the fiscal year prior to the migration and for the fiscal year in which the migration takes place.
If the program finds any differences, create a message on SAP Service Marketplace under the component FI-GL-GL-X.
3) Program RAABST02
If you use Asset Accounting, run program RAABST02.
If the program finds any differences, create a message on SAP Service Marketplace under the component FI-AA-AA-B.
4) Program RCOPCA44
If you use Profit Center Accounting, run program RCOPCA44.
If the program finds any differences, see SAP Note 81374.
Remove all inconsistencies before you start the first test migration
29. Which parts of Customizing must already exist in the production system on the migration date?
If you use document splitting in ECC 6.0, we recommend that you activate the validation of document splitting in the production system at the latest on the migration date. This means that the new General Ledger including document splitting must be completely configured in the production system on the migration date and that all interfaces and ALE scenarios must be adjusted accordingly.
This does not apply to ECC 5.0 because the validation of document splitting is not available in ECC 5.0.
If you do not intend to use document splitting or if you use Release ECC 5.0, you can transport Customizing of the new General Ledger to the productive system after the migration date.
The indicator "New General Ledger Accounting Is Active" is transported with other basic settings of the new General Ledger in table FAGL_ACTIVEC. Ensure that the indictor "New General Ledger Accounting Is Active" is not set when you transport it to the production system.
30. When drawing up the project plan, what must I consider if I want to use document splitting?
We recommend that you activate document splitting validation at the latest on the migration date.
The new General Ledger including document splitting must be completely and finally configured before you activate document
Hope everything helps in migration new GL functionality

Issues after migrating from 3.0.6.6.5 to 3.0.9.8.3A

G'day All,
Over the last week or so I have performed some test migrations using copies
of our production Portal environment and here are some of the issues that I have encountered.
ISSUE 1 - Performance
Using a stopwatch (primitive, I know) I visited a few parts of our Portal and recorded timings
Performance did not improve dramatically. In fact, after the 3.0.9.8.3A patch, some things slowed right down.
I tested using a Sun Ultra 80 (2 x 450MHz CPUs) our Development host.
(I also tested using a spare Ultra 10 (1 x 333MHz) This was MUCH slower than the numbers seen below)
In all the timings below, I did the following:
1.Logged on as PORTAL30 this takes me to the Portal Home page showing the Build tab
2. Clicked on the Navigator icon
3. From the Navigator Pages section, I clicked on our company homepage
4. From the Main tab on the company homepage, I clicked on our Customer Service tab (one of many that we have)
5. Click on the Ops & Security tab (another one of ours)
6. Click on Logout
Timings are in SECONDS. I ran thru the process at least 3 times and recorded
the final 2 timings to allow for the first time thru populating caches etc.

** Bringing up Navigator and the first page from Navigator now takes ages.
Analysing PORTAL30 objects using wwsbr_stats.gather_stats made no difference
to the above timings.
Anyone have any ideas about this???
Bear in mind that this slow down probably only affects me as the
developer since end users pretty much stick to the tabs on the homepage
and never need to use Navigator.
And end user login and presentation of the company homepages takes about 4 seconds.
ISSUE 2 - Fonts
During the migration, many of our developed forms/reports now contain headings/labels that
are so small as to be unreadable (eg 1 point in size)
This seems to be due to the fact that originally the fonts were sized as (-3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3)
relative sizing. This has been screwed up during migration and has ended up as fonts
being sized 1, 2, 3 points in size.
I will have to visit each form and report and set sizes accordingly.
The PEOPLE_APP application supplied by Oracle also suffers from this problem and is a little harder
to fix. (Check Metalink)
ISSUE 3 - Menu permissions
I have a couple of menus that are only viewable by certain groups.
This permission disappeared along the way leaving the menu NOT visible to anyone.
I will have to visited each menu and set permissions once again.
I hope this list may help others embarking on the same migration path.
I would highly recommend copying your production environment and practising on the copy first.

Tony Cook

Further to the performance problem above, I found the following bug on Metalink:
Bug Number: 2391402
PERFOMANCE DEGRADATION WITH 3.0.9.8.3 ON IE
Funnily enough, this bug was meant to be addressed by the 3.0.9.8.3A patch that I had already applied.
After reading the bug report I added the following line to httpd.conf
BrowserMatch "MSIE" nokeepalive downgrade-1.0 force-response-1.0
I am now seeing the following timings
Log in          3     3

There is a 15 second timeout that was adding to the response times I was seeing prior
to making the change to the httpd.conf file eg. 19 seconds down to 3ish

9.3.1 Migration Utility gives "Project does not exists" error in log

In preparation for using Hyperion Reporting and Analysis 9.3.1, I have installed the following on a Linux test server:
--Oracle App Server 10.1.3
--Oracle Database 10g XE
--Hyperion shared services 9.3.1
--Hyperion UI Services 9.3.1
--Hyperion SQR Production Reporting 9.3.1
--Hyperion Reporting and Analysis, Financial Reporting 9.3.1
Everything is up and running and I created a new user account in Shared Services to administer the system, and attempted to give it full access by provisioning it with all the available roles. I received an error message stating
"+OracleJSP: An error occurred. Consult your application/system administrator for support. Programmers should consider setting the init-param debug_mode to "true" to see the complete exception message.+"
I'm investigating that now, but the roles seemed to be assigned to the user anyway.
When attempting to migrate from HPSu 8.5.2 to Reporting and Analysis 9.3.1 using the 9.3.1 Linux x86 Migration Utility (V11333-01 from edelivery.oracle.com), I get the following error message in a test migration:

I set the log level to debug and looked it over and here are the error details:

We've only one user-defined role in the source system that I don't think is giving us this issue, it is inactivated and "User Roles" was not one of the selected objects to migrate.
I would like to try taking the role completely out of the source system if possible, preferably through SQL applied to the V8 tables or through the SDK.
The error looks like it lies in the migration task following the user role provisioning, doAssignDefaultGroup* and is caused by getProjectNameByID*
The steps I have taken (for sanity sake) so far are:
--I've removed all associations with this user defined role in the source system (users, groups, and roles) using the administrative interface on the web.
--I've unchecked 'User Defined Roles' on the list objects to migrate from the source to target systems in the Migration Utility, but I still get the error.
It looks like it is trying to provision a user defined role in the target system, but it is not finding a default project by the id in the error message.
Are there any Shared Services steps in the target system that need to be taken besides creating a manager type user to use as a log in for the Migration Tool?

I turned on the jsp debug init-param for the system for more information about the error. I get the following:
Request URI:/interop/jsp/css/CSSTemplate.jsp
Exception:
OracleJSP:oracle.jsp.parse.JspParseException: /jsp/css/provisionSummary.jsp: Line # 119, <bean:define id="appId" name="appName" property="key"/>
Error: Tag attempted to define a bean which already exists: appId
When I attempt to provision the user I created for administrative purposes, Ialso see the following:
--from the file SharedServices_Metadata.log I see the error:

How does one set these logs into debug mode ?

Data Quality tab for migration isn't working as expected.

I was doing a test migration from DB2 (9.7) database to Oracle 11g using SQL Developer Version 3.2.20.09 Build MAIN-09.87. I found that the Data Quality tab for record count comparison from migration project wasn't working as expected.
It’s not showing the record count from source database. It is showing following error in logging page after every refresh. It is happening because tool is populating SOURCENAME as "DB2"."SCHEMANAME"."TABLENAME" whereas the SOURCENAME should be consist of schema name and table name only. I have gone through the MD_META package and Database views, which are written for repository and found that its appending catalog name in case of source database is DB2.
Is this a known issue? Do we have fix available? I think we need a change in QUOTE function of MD_META package and DB views. Please suggest.
SEVERE 1377 2 oracle.dbtools.db.DBUtil Warning, unhandled exception: DB2 SQL error: SQLCODE: -204, SQLSTATE: 42704, SQLERRMC: DB2.CDSWEB.PRODUCTLICTYPE

Hello,
Is this a known issue?
Yes, it is a known issue. Bug 11778359: DB2:RUN DATA QUALITY REPORT GET UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: DB2 SQL ERROR
The bug is unpublished so you can't see it in My Oracle Support, I just mentioned it for reference.
Do we have fix available?Not yet. A fix shall be available in a future version of SQL Developer. Don't ask me in which one and when, I have no idea.
I think we need a change in QUOTE function of MD_META package and DB viewsI don't agree. I don't know what might break if you manipulate that package.
Sorry that I have no better answer.
Best regards

** Bringing up Navigator and the first page from Navigator now takes ages.
Analysing PORTAL30 objects using wwsbr_stats.gather_stats made no difference
to the above timings.
Anyone have any ideas about this???
Bear in mind that this slow down probably only affects me as the
developer since end users pretty much stick to the tabs on the homepage
and never need to use Navigator.
And end user login and presentation of the company homepages takes about 4 seconds.
ISSUE 2 - Fonts
During the migration, many of our developed forms/reports now contain headings/labels that
are so small as to be unreadable (eg 1 point in size)
This seems to be due to the fact that originally the fonts were sized as (-3, -2, -1, 0, +1, +2, +3)
relative sizing. This has been screwed up during migration and has ended up as fonts
being sized 1, 2, 3 points in size.
I will have to visit each form and report and set sizes accordingly.
The PEOPLE_APP application supplied by Oracle also suffers from this problem and is a little harder
to fix. (Check Metalink)
ISSUE 3 - Menu permissions
I have a couple of menus that are only viewable by certain groups.
This permission disappeared along the way leaving the menu NOT visible to anyone.
I will have to visited each menu and set permissions once again.
I hope this list may help others embarking on the same migration path.
I would highly recommend copying your production environment and practising on the copy first.

I'm Sorry, reading a couple of posts down, it says... the upgrade scripts should be available between April 23rd to 28th.

Bulk Project Site option isn't working in project server 2010 migrated from PS 2007.

Hi,
I am doing a test migration from epm 2007 to epm 2013.
So first, i need to migrate the project server 2007 to project server 2010. i have 2 separate environments for EPM 2007 and EPM 2010).
there is no problem in migration process and i successfully migrate entire PWA 2007 to 2010, except Workspaces (Project sites).
Bulk project site option is not helping. I have tried 4-5 times with different PWA 2007 databases (PWA1, PWA2...) but this option did not work. and errors in queue are WSSWebDoesNotExist(16405) and GeneralQueueJobFailed(26000).
Then next time while migrating all over again i kept the same port and same PWA name then bulk project site option worked.
Question is, Do i need to keep the same PWA name and same port for the new upgraded PWA??, one more issue regarding this is that if don't keep the same PWA name and i open the project site and click on the "Project web app" back link, it
redirects me to old PWA site which doesn't exist and give me page not found error (Obviously).
Below, you can see the both scenarios.
my previous PWA 2007 site, say - http://epm2007:2222/PWA
When - migrated PWA 2010 site, say - http://epm2010:3000/NewPWA (Bulk project site update just doesn't work)
When - migrated PWA 2010 site, say - http://epm2010:2222/PWA (Bulk project site update worked)
Whats the solution of this problem. is there any utility or query to link all project sites correctly?
Will i face the same problem while migrating PS 2010 to PS 2013??
Thank you.
sandeep

Hi,
I would say it is easier to keep the same PWA name between 2007 and 2010 (no need to have the same port).
If you want to move to a new PWA URL maybe you can use stsadm backup/restore as detailed in this article?

Migration using Data Pump confusion :(

Hi,
I have task to migrate a database from Windows x64 to Linux x64. From 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.4. Please correct my scenario:
1. Install and configure binaries on new Linux host
2. Create a empty database on Linux host
3. Performe DP Export from old Windows database.
4. Import dump to new database on Linux.
Are the general steps correct? My confiusion is about Data Pump utility. As i know DP doesnt export SYS/SYSTEM schemas right? I've performed test migration with the following parameters:
expdp ..... full=y
impdp ..... full=y
and i have a lot of errors similar to: "object already exists" and so on. Am i correct with using full=y in both expdp and impdp? Maybe i should export a full database and then import only specified schemas (application schemas)? What about priviledges? Where they are stored in database? Maybe when i import only application schemas there will be a problem with privilegdes grants etc?
Thanks

Yes your steps are correct. When you create the new database, the SYS/SYSTEM object are already populated, so you will see "object already exists" errors.

Migrating from MySQL to Oracle 11gR2 containing accented characters

Hello Gurus,
I am going to migrate a MySQL database that contains accented characters. The collation of the tables holding these data is utf8_unicode_ci.
I used SQLDeveloper to generate data migration scripts. After a test migration run, the web pages displays "?" instead of the accented character.
I am currently tracing where the problem is.
From what I have read, mysqldump uses utf8 as the default character set, so I assume the accented characters in <tablename>.txt files are in tact.
Could the problem be on sqlldr? Has anyone come across this problem?
I really would appreciate any help.
Thanks
