Upgrade/Migration using PCD from 8.6 to 10.5

Customer has a cluster with a publisher and 7 subscribers.  Infrastructure is a mix of 6 spec-based VM servers and 2 MCS servers.  I am considering using PCD, but I have the following questions:
With the mix of virtual and MCS servers, do I need to do a migration vice an upgrade?
If I do the migration, does this essentially double the virtual real estate required until the migration is complete and I can delete the 8.6 servers?
Any other gotchas that I should be aware of?  This will be my first PCD upgrade/migration.
Thanks in advance,
Nathan Richie

PCD will install and push the info one server at a time, you can either keep the same IP addressing and hostname, or change it. If you're going to keep the same, you need to build a separate network with ALL the services you have in production and make sure you do not cause a conflict by separating the networks.
If you have the CAR DB at full capacity, delete the records to avoid timing out.
And as Aman said, 10.x and above are ONLY supported over ESXi, no baremetal support.

    Hi,
    You can upgrade your portal with all usages that you have installed. You need to check upgrade guide as well.
    You need to check if there is any custom development on the portal to migrate it to new version.

  • Migration using PCD with impact?

    Dear colleagues,
    I´m currently planning my customer´s upgrade from CUCM 8.5.1 to 10.5.1 using PCD.
    As PCD reads the entire CUCM database, my question is if we would have any impact in the current cluster services during the migration process to a new cluster using PCD.
    Thank you
    Andre

    No, but obviously that consumes resources, depending on how much load your servers already have, you might want to do this after-hours.

  • Upgrade/Migrate Essbase Standalone from 9.3.1.0 to 11.1.2.2

    I've got a standalone 9.3.1 instance that we want to take to 11.1.2.2.  For us, the most cost-effective way is to patch 9.3.1 to a release we can migrate from, compatible with 11.1.2.2. So it's 9.3.1 to 9.3.1.6/9.3.1.7 in place and then to 11.1.2.2 on new hardware.
    My concern is the move to 9.3.1.6.  Has anyone done this, and what are the pain points? My users are only in Essbase (security).  I believe I've read they need to get out of Essbase before going to the 11.1.2.2 HSS/Essbase scenario (HSS required for install/startup?)
    Anything that I *shouldn't* do?
    Thanks in advance,
    -Vince

    If it is standalone and only Essbase personally I see no point in patching and then upgrading to 11.1.2.2, I would prefer to have a clean install and then migrate the application as if you moving to 11.1.2.2 then no doubt it will be new hardware and OS.
    One possible method would be to install and configure 11.1.2.2 then use the EAS migration wizard to migrate the Essbase applications, data would need to be migrated separated.
    You would also need to consider security if you are moving to Shared Services security in 11.1.2.2
    It may be worth discussing your options with a consultant as there important points that should be covered which is probably not for a forum.,
    Cheers

  • Upgrade/Migrate Planning application from 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3

    I have installed 11.1.2.3 on Window 2008 R2 servers.  Our old environment is on  11.1.1.1 is still up and running on different server(windows 2003).  I have successfully completed the following:
    1.     All Hyperion products (HSS,BIPLUS,CALC MGR,EPMA,Planning,FDME installed successfully and everything working fine.
    2.     I am able migrate the all FR reports successfully(Export/Import method) and Yet to test the reports after application migration.
    3.     I created  Planning apps in the new system which is similar to old application , I can open the Planning Application Administrator via WorkSpace URL.
    My question :1) Can i migrate Planning repository DB schema from SQL server 2005 to New application schema on SQL server 2008.
                                (There is any update required before and all the repository table of 11.1.2.3  similar to 11.1.1.1 
                       2) How can i migrate the Business rules to  Calc manager(.i.e 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3)
                       3)How can i migrate the FDM application (.i.e 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3)
    Please let me know if you need any further information.

    First of all 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3 direct migration is not supported so if you have issue upgrading planning then unfortunately that may be the reason.
    SQL Server 2005 to 2008 should be ok but if you are concerned then upgrade the sql server 2005 version to 11.1.2.3 then use LCM to change database versions.
    Business Rules read the following support doc - "Hyperion Business Rules (HBR) to Calculation Manager Migration White Paper (Doc ID 1528121.1)"
    FDM - Upgrade utility.

  • Upgrade & Migrate from V11.1.1.3 to V11.1.2.2

    Hi All,
    Currently we are using Hyperion Essbase Server V11.1.1.3 in Windows Server 2003 R2.
    We are in a plan to Upgrade & Migrate to Essbase Server V11.1.2.2 in Windows Server 2008.
    We are only using Essbase w/o Shared services.
    Could you please provide me the below information:
    (1) Whether LCM Utility can be used to perform this Upgrade & Migration from V11.1.1.3 to V11.1.2.2 ( not using the Shared Services)?
    (2) Any documents w.r.t this Upgrade & Migration using LCM Utility?

  • DB Upgrade+Migrate from 10.1 to 11.2 using IMPDP with network_link param

    Dear all,
    I would like to upgrade and migrate my 10.1.0.5 DB on old server to 11.2.0.2 on new server.
    Here is the background info:
    Old server:
    OS : Redhat Linux AS 2.1
    DB Version : 10.1.0.5 (32 bit)
    No RAC
    New Server:
    OS : OEL 5.5
    DB Version : 11.2.0.2
    RAC
    ASM
    What I have done so far:
    1. Create new clustered 11Gr2 DB on new server.
    2. Pre-create tablespaces on new DB.
    3. Migrate 10.1.0.5 to 11.2.0.2 using IMPDP.
    impdp system/******* DIRECTORY=dump_file_dir NETWORK_LINK=DWH_DBLINK LOGFILE=log_file_dir:DWH_import_20110621.log FULL=Y SERVICE_NAME=dwhdb.xxx.xxx TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=replace cluster=N exclude=statistics
    4. After IMPDP complete, invalid objects and components are found, run utlrp.sql no help
    SQL> select owner, count(*) from dba_objects where status = 'INVALID' group by owner;
    OWNER COUNT(*)
    WKSYS 16

    SQL> select comp_name, status, version from dba_registry;

    Oracle Real Application Clusters VALID 11.2.0.2.0
    19 rows selected.
    5. Check SYS's invalid objects, e.g. DBA_OUTLINE_HINTS, after tracing the reason, find outln.ol$hints is replaced by 10.1.0.5 version. I think it is due to the IMPDP's "TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=replace" parameter.
    Others invalid objects like WMSYS.WM$ENV_VARS, also replaced by old version.
    What should I do now?
    Do I need to run upgrade script after DB migration using IMPDP?
    Is the migration procedure correct?
    Please advise
    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    It looks like you've messed up the Non User (Oracle default user) data and/or metadata i.e sys, system, wksys.
    How many non Oracle default user do you have? and how big is the database? If you're using this method I'm assuming the data is not really big.
    I personally will not do full export/ import across different version, its better to just export the non default Oracle user schema as you might ended up messed up the sys objects, etc
    What you might do is
    - drop the 11g database and start from beginning again but exclude Oracle default user e.g sys,system, etc
    - or try run catupgrd.sql script (this will drop and recreate the objects), -this may or may not be fixing your invalid components
    Cheers

  • I upgraded my macbookpro hard drive to 1 TB then migrated my files from time machine. I'm now locked out of the computer because the password is not the same as my usual one and one that was years old and not retreivable. How do I work around this?

    I upgraded my macbookpro hard drive to 1 TB then migrated my files from time machine. I'm now locked out of the computer because the password is not the same as my usual one and one that was years old and not retreivable. How do I work around this?

    Whether or not you are able to recover the data off the drive yourself will depend on if the drive suffered any impact damage in the crash. You can buy USB SATA or IDE adapters (Intel and almost all G5 use SATA) that will let you connect your hard drive to a computer (like a flash drive) to see if you can recover the data. If the drive has suffered physical damage if may not mount.
    If you know someone who has one of these adapters you could try using theirs, otherwise you could buy one but you take the risk of the data on the drive being non recoverable. Regardless, both are much cheaper than $1699!
    (Alternatively, if you know of someone with a Mac Pro or PowerMac G5 they may be able to install the drive in their machine and try to boot from or mount it and copy the data off.)

    I recently migrated my MacBook from 10.5.8 to 10.6.8, using the Snow Leopard CD I purchased from Apple. Since then I have noticed a strange ozone smell coming from the MacBook in the area where the hinges are to open and close the unit. I was told by Apple that it probably is not serious and is coming from the fans in the MacBook. It is true that the smell/odor is more intense when the fans are working. Apple said I should take the MacBook to an Apple Store to have the hardware checked out. Everything seems to be working correctly. I am backing up automatically wirelessly to a Time Capsule, which I had not done until recently, although I had purchased the Time Capsule in 2009. I have not noticed this odor before. Does anyone suspect something more serious that may be going on?

    You may be smelling it because with the new OS the processor is having to work harder causing it to get hotter then it would with the other OS.  I can't say there is nothing wrong, but what could be happening is just that, it's getting hotter so the fan is spinning faster and moving more air so you are getting more of the smell then you would before.  I would still continue to back it up, and take it to the Apple Store at a Genius Bar and have them look at it to make sure.  Was the computer ever in a smoky environment??

    I  have a new Mac Pro computer and have migrated my files from my older computer to the new computer. In trying to open a Lightroom catalog on an external hard drive  I keep on getting the message "lightroom cannot use the catalog named " " because it is  not writable and cannot be opened. I have fixed all the "permissions" and yet it will still not open. How do I fix this?

    Hello Forum Members,
    I figured it out. You have to select  the actual logo of the Lightroom catalog and then click on  "get info" and allow what ever your new user name to "read and write". That worked!
