Where did the tutorial to migrate SQL Server go?

Hi,
There was a great tutorial on how to do this on:
http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/obe/db/hol08/sqldev_migration/mssqlserver/migrate_microsoft_sqlserver_otn.htm
Where did it go? I cannot get to this link anymore.
Thanks,

Welcome to the forum!
Whenever you post provide your 4 digit Oracle version.

On how to do what? Migrate sql server to what? To Oracle? To mysql?
Here is a link with info on using sql develoer to migrate from sql server to Oracle

Here is a link with a doc on how to migrate sql server to mysql

Where did the files i migrated go

I migrated some things from my laptop and cant find them on my mac. Where are they?

In a different user account. Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu, provide /Users/ as the path, and drag the migrated home folder to the desktop.

Migrating SQL Server DB to Oracle DB - probably EASY answer

I completed the tutorial on migrating SQL Server DB to Oracle. When I try on my own database, it all migrated well except anything containing a datetime. When I run the oracle_ctl.bat file and view any of the log files, I see Record 1: Rejected - Error on table DBO_RIVERSIDEDB_NCWCD_TEST.TS6HOUR_TAIN, column DATE_TIME.
ORA-01843: not a valid month. Do I need to change the first line of the file set NLS_DATE_FORMAT=Mon dd YYYY HH:mi:ssAM ? In the .dat file created from the unload_script.bat, the data starts out 1275<EOFD>2007-05-11 00:00:00.000<EOFD>74.900000000000006<EOFD><EOFD><EORD>1275<EOFD>. So my questions is about the date_format - is that the same for all SQL Server databases or do I need to enter something based on MY database? I am definitely a newbie so this is probably a super easy question. Thanks so much for any help!

Hello,
There are two different date format in SQL Server.
1] DateTime : 2010-08-03 12:48:15.170
2] SmallDateTime: 2010-08-03 12:48:00
Both the date will be inserted in Oracle Date column.
Is there any automated way to generate datamove script to tackle these differences? I've around 200 tables to be migrated and there may be many such cases.
The issue with Oracle SQL Developer setting i.e. Tools >Preferences> (Under) Migration> Data Move Option, there are two masks we can specify, one for Date Mask and other for Timestamp. How can I set both of these for converting data into Date, not in timestamp.
Below is my .CTL file, none of below fields are timestamp, but since incoming data in in timestamp format, it is applying timestamp mask and eventually failing to insert data into table
load data
infile '[PARTSORDER].dat'
"str '<EORD>'"
into table admin.PARTSORDER
fields terminated by '<EOFD>'
trailing nullcols
ORDERID ,
GenDate "TO_TIMESTAMP(:GenDate, 'YYYY-MM-DD.HH24.MI.SS.ff3')",
Status "DECODE(:Status, CHR(00), ' ', :Status)",
StatusBy ,
StatusDate "TO_TIMESTAMP(:StatusDate, 'YYYY-MM-DD.HH24.MI.SS.ff3')",
Approved ,

ApprovedDate "TO_TIMESTAMP(:ApprovedDate, 'YYYY-MM-DD.HH24.MI.SS.ff3')",
TrackingNumber "DECODE(:TrackingNumber, CHR(00), ' ', :TrackingNumber)",

ShippedVia "DECODE(:ShippedVia, CHR(00), ' ', :ShippedVia)",

CompletedBy "DECODE(:CompletedBy, CHR(00), ' ', :CompletedBy)",
CompletedDate "TO_TIMESTAMP(:CompletedDate, 'YYYY-MM-DD.HH24.MI.SS.ff3')",
ORDERType "DECODE(:ORDERType, CHR(00), ' ', :ORDERType)",
RMAID ,
RMANumber "DECODE(:RMANumber, CHR(00), ' ', :RMANumber)",
BackOrdered ,
XORDERID ,
PARTSORDERSENT "DECODE(:PARTSORDERSENT, CHR(00), ' ', :PARTSORDERSENT)",
SHIPMENTID "DECODE(:SHIPMENTID, CHR(00), ' ', :SHIPMENTID)"
Any help in this regard will be highly appreciated!

Migrate SQL Server 7.0 to Oracle 8i - Any known issues??

Hi,
I am in the process of migrating SQL Server database to Oracle 8i for testing purpose. When I do migrate SQL Server database to Oracle 8i, am I doing any harm to the exiting SQL Server database? Would the users be able to use SQL Server database as usual?? Are there any known issues in this regard?
Please reply.
Thanks.
Ramesh

The Migration Workbench copys the information it requires from the source database and stores it in the Migration Workbench Repository, which is separate from the Source database. So, to answer your question, yes, the users can continue to use the SQL Server database. The data move may cause some system performance degradation. It may also be an idea to replicate the SQL Server database, in case any complication should arise.
Hope this helps

Ramesh Hi Ramesh!
The Migration Workbench does not make any modifications to the SQL Server database. It only reads information from it. Your users should be able to use the SQL Server database as usual.
Please note however that if you migrate the data over to Oracle using the Migration Workbench and your users continue to enter/update data in the exiting SQL Server database then you may need to move all that data over again in order to have the most up to date data in the Oracle database.

Dwaipayan Das

Hi Dwaipayan,
SQL Server migrations are not supported by the (old)OMWB anymore.
This functionality has been moved into the SQL Developer Migration Workbench.
SQL Server migrations are a built in feature of SQL Developer, which you can download for free here.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/index.html
Before downloading you can take a look at this viewlet demonstrating the migration of SQL Server Northwind database.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration/workbench/viewlets/sqlserver.html
All the new migration features are based around SQL Developer.
Heres are new page

Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager

Will the reports developed in sql server 2008 r2 BIDS work when deployed on sql server 2012 reporting manager?
when I check on Microsoft site it says
Reports are not upgraded when you upload a report definition file directly to the report server
or SharePoint site. Upgrading a report definition in SQL Server Data Tools is the only way to upgrade the .rdl file.
When you open an .rdl file in Report Designer in SQL Server Data Tools (SSDT), if the report was
created for a previous namespace, Report Designer automatically creates a backup file and upgrades the report to the current namespace.
This is the only way you can upgrade a report definition file.
Now here is another confusing statement which says
You can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server
2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. The report server stores the report definition file in the original format. The report is automatically upgraded the first time it is viewed, but the stored report definition file remains
unchanged.
All I want to know is if I deploy a rdl made in 2008 r2 to 2012 will it work on the report manager of
2012?
<o:p>
</o:p>
Mudassar

I have tested this fucntionality and can confirm that ssrs 2008 r2 reports work when you deploy them on new ssrs 2012 report manager .
No Migration is required .
I didnt even moved report server dbs .All I did is just deployed reports on the report manager and it worked .
"You
can upload an .rdl file created in an earlier version of Reporting Services to a SQL Server 2012 report server and it is automatically upgraded on first use. "
Microsoft needs to correct this the documentation is misleading

Your information is a little bit missleading:
"where mapper/mapper is a new user I created on the SQL Server DB, mwrep_orcl is the Oracle repositiry database and WSSTCWKS401 my workstation name"
Please pay attention all parameters specified calling the batch file are SQL Server related parameters. See the batch file for more info:
echo ----
echo ---- OMWB_OFFLINE_CAPTURE login_id password database_name server_name
echo ---- where,
echo ---- login_id is a login id which has been granted db_datareader
echo ---- and view definition on database_name
echo ---- password is the password for the login id
echo ---- database_name is the name of the database you wish to capture
echo ---- server_name is the name of the server on which the database resides
echo ---- For example,
echo ---- OMWB_OFFLINE_CAPTURE sa sapwd employeeDB DEPT1_SERVER
echo ----
So the database_name is the SQL Server database name you want to capture and server_name is the server which contains your SQL Server database.
Do your settings follow these rules? If not, please correct and retry.
If your settings are correct, what permissions did you grant to mapper?

Where is the management Studio for SQL 2008 Express?

Can anyone point me to where I can download the management studio for SQL 2008 Express.
I've downloaded and installed SQL 2008 Express without problem but can't find the management studio.
Help.

Paradox1 said:
The 2008 version of the Management Studio is not a stand alone installation and can only be installed as part of the SQL Server 2008 Express with Tools or Advanced installation.
Like many others, I spent countless hours trying to figure out how to install the Management Studio for SQL Server 2008 Express - Advanced installation (same should apply to the w/ Tools version). What happened in my case was that I installed Visual Studio 2008 Express and during that process a stripped down "Instance" of SQL Server 2008 was installed that did not include the Management Studio. Through much pain and torture I learned that the Management Studio can only be installed during installation of the first instance. To delete that first instance, you must go to "Add or Remove Programs" and remove "Microsoft SQL Server 2008". The removal process will only remove one instance at a time and if you have installed more than one instance you need to keep going until all instances have been removed and the application completely disappears from the Add or Remove Programs" dialog. Note: You do not need to uninstall any of the other SQL Server 2008 applications that also appear in the "Add or Remove Programs" dialog. Then go back through the install process as follows: Double click on SQLEXPRADV_x86_ENU.exe to load the SQL Server Installation Center and then go to Installation > New SQL Server stand-alone installation. Then proceed through all of the installation steps until you get to “Feature Selection” and click on “Select All” to toggle on all of the Shared Features, which should include Management Tools - Basic.Continue the process from there and you should be good to go. Hopefully this will help others to avoid much of the pain that many of us have already experienced.

Quick Migrate: SQL Server database to Oracle

When I try Quick Migrate: SQL Server database to Oracle, I get the following error messages:

Error #1 I do not understand.

WITH ADMIN OPTION
Thanks
Murray

Murray,
Apologies for referring to the 1.5 documentation but the 2.1 documentation still has the same information about creating a user to hold the repository.
You initially reported 2 problems -
1. Locating source plugin...failed
2. Checking multi-schema privileges...Privilege 'CREATE ROLE" is not granted with admin option.
For the first error have you installed the necessary JDBC driver ? I have just installed SQL*Developer 2.1 on a new laptop and could successfully connect following the documentation steps -
Oracle® SQL Developer
User’s Guide
Release 2.1
2.5.2 Before Migrating From Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server
To configure a Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server database for
migration:
1. Ensure that the source database is accessible by the Microsoft SQL Server or
Sybase Adaptive Server user that is used by SQL Developer for the source
connection. This user must be able to see any objects to be captured in the
Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server database; objects that the user
cannot see are not captured. For example, if the user can execute a stored
procedure but does not have sufficient privileges to see the source code, the stored
procedure cannot be captured.
2. Ensure that you can connect to the Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive
Server database from the system where you have installed SQL Developer.
3. Ensure that you have downloaded the JTDS JDBC driver from
http://jtds.sourceforge.net/.
4. In SQL Developer, if you have not already installed the JTDS driver using Check
for Updates (on the Help menu), do the following:
a. Click Tools, then Preferences, then Database, then Third Party JDBC Drivers.
b. Click Add Entry.
c. Select the jar file for the JTDS driver you downloaded from
http://jtds.sourceforge.net/.
d. Click OK.
========
The second error is again documented in the 2.1 documentation -
5.99 Privilege Warning for Migration
This dialog box is displayed if you click Verify in the Quick Migrate box and the
database user for the connection does not have all privileges necessary for a
multischema migration. For multischema migrations, this user must granted the
RESOURCE role with the ADMIN option; and this user must also be granted the
CREATE ROLE, CREATE USER, and ALTER ANY TRIGGER privileges, all with the
ADMIN option.
If you are performing a single-schema migration, you can ignore this warning.
=====
Which errors are you now seeing and which user was used to hold the repository ?
If you are using GRAINTEST for the repository then create it using this syntax -
CREATE USER GRAINTEST IDENTIFIED BY password <=== change password as necessary
DEFAULT TABLESPACE users TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp; <=== change tablespaces as necessary
GRANT CONNECT, RESOURCE, CREATE VIEW, CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TO
GRAINTEST WITH ADMIN OPTION;
GRANT ALTER ANY ROLE, ALTER ANY SEQUENCE, ALTER ANY TABLE, ALTER TABLESPACE,
ALTER ANY TRIGGER, COMMENT ANY TABLE, CREATE ANY SEQUENCE, CREATE ANY TABLE,
CREATE ANY TRIGGER, CREATE ROLE, CREATE TABLESPACE, CREATE USER, DROP ANY
SEQUENCE, DROP ANY TABLE, DROP ANY TRIGGER, DROP TABLESPACE, DROP USER, DROP ANY
ROLE, GRANT ANY ROLE, INSERT ANY TABLE, SELECT ANY TABLE, UPDATE ANY TABLE TO
GRAINTEST with admin option ;
then when making the migration make sure the Oracle connection is to this user.
Please update the thread with the errors you get after following these steps.
Regards,
Mike

HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 551dn - where did the drivers go?

I go to the download page to download the drivers for this 551dn. I download all windows 7, 8, 8.1, 2008, 2012, so that i can put them on my print server. I downloaded them from here..
<http>//h20564.www2.hp.com/hpsc/swd/public/readIndex?sp4ts.oid=5081348&lang=en&lang=en&cc=lamerica_n...

HP LaserJet Enterprise 500 color M551 Printer Series PCL6 Print Driver (no Installer) 61.130.04.12834
24 Sep 2014 21.3
I get the file downloaded (LJEnt-color-M551-Drv-no-installer_12297.exe), i run it, get the security warning and Run. the file extracts - then POOF, the installer is gone.
where did the files go? They aren't on the root of the C: drive, a folder/files were not created on my desktop, no files or folder created in my downloads folder.
I was never asked for a file save location.... ??? really? is this this basic stuff?
Where are the files? this $$$ printer is a brick until i get drivers!
Thanks!

UPDATE- I FOUND THE FILES!!
First of all, HP... i'm not impressed.
All the files for all the drivers are in a series of temp folders...
C:\Users\-myusername-\AppData\Local\Temp\3\7zS4A73
really?
hope this helps someone.

There is no change to this problem after 6 months since the last post. Put simply, and as stated in the previous posts, there is no way to scan a document and receive the image on your PC. If you are working with graphics for any length of time or want to create an image for inclusion as an image in a document or web page using this piece of equipment will not allow you to do so.
Great shame as every other function works well - it cannot be beyond the wit of HP to include a Windows application that enables you to scan an image, receive it in the software you are using at the time (e.g. Outlook, Word, Photoshop...) and use it in your work.
HP Printers several years older than this £1000+ Enterprise printer were able to do this simple job and have done so for a great many years. Just being able to use Microsoft's Fax and Scan would be start.

Migrating SQL Server 7.0 to Oracle 8i in Different Operating Systems

I am migrating SQL Server 7.0 Databases on NT to Oracle 8i on Sun 2.6. Is there is any other way other then Migration Workbench.
If Mig Workbench is OK. What are the steps to do Migration.
null

Hi,
You can perform this action with the Oracle Migration Workbench. Just install the Workbench on the same machine as your SQL Server database.
You can then configure the workbench to point to the oracle database on your Sun machine.
You can use the Oracle database on your Sun machine for both your destination database (the database to which you migrate your SQL Server schema and data) and workbench repository.
In order to do this you will need to configure a tnsnames.ora entry. The tool that will do this configuration for you should be started up at the end of the workbench installation. It is a fairly straightfoward process.
You then need to create a user in your oracle database that will store the workbench repository.
Once you have comleted these steps you will be able to migrate SQL Server on NT to Oracle on Sun.
It is exactly the same process as migrating to Oracle on NT except you are pointing the Workbench to Oracle on a Sun box.

Error migrating SQL Server 2000 database to Oracle.

Hi,
I am new in SQL Developer.
I read most of the help manuals available on the net.
I am able to create connections to both SQL Server and Oracle database.
I am also able to create the migration repository on the Oracle database.
SQL server connection - TestSQL
Oracle database connection - TestOracle
Migration Repository - Migration_Repository.
Here is the problem am facing:
When I start Migrate to Oracle wizard, by right clicking the TestSQL database, I followed all the required steps and enter the necessary information. -
It starts creating the project - say, TEST but after that it gave the following error:
Migration actions have failed. Check the migration report for more details. : ORA-01400: cannot insert null into ("MIGRATIONS"."MD_PROJECT_ID").
Please help.

Thanks for your reply.
You are correct, there were some permission missing on the migration repository user.
I have given permissions and it worked fine.
but I can say that required permission mentioned in other posts and blogs on the Internet are not sufficient.
One has to provide more admin priviligies to this user.

Where did the tutorial to migrate SQL Server go?
