In the previous blog I changed the Docbase Name to repository1 instead of RepoTemplate using MigrationUtil, in this blog it is Server Config Name’s turn to be changed. In general, the repository name and the server config name are the same except in High availability case. You can find the Server Config Name in the server.ini file: [dmadmin@vmtestdctm01 ~]$ cat…
You are attending the second episode of the MigrationUtil series, today we will change the Docbase Name. If you missed the first one, you can find it here. I did this change on Documentum CS 16.4 with Oracle database, on the same docbase I already used to change the docbase ID. My goal is to do both changes on the…
This blog is the first one of a series that I will publish in the next few days/weeks regarding how to change a Docbase ID, Docbase name, aso in Documentum CS. So, let’s dig in with the first one: Docbase ID. I did it on Documentum CS 16.4 with Oracle database on a freshly installed docbase. We will be interested…
Integration catalog is easy to work with and the environments feature is as well very convenient. In SQL Server management Studio, there are a lot of features available to administrate your SQL Server instances, but some are missing that can be very useful. You have the possibility to move an SSISDB environment but this is only possible in another folder…
EnterpriseDB is a valuable actor in PostgreSQL’s world. In addition to provide support, they also deliver very useful tools to manage easily your Postgres environments. Among these we can mention EDB Enterprise Manager, EDB Backup & Recovery Tool, EDB Failover Manager, aso… With this post I will present one of the last in the family, EDB Postgres Migration Portal, a…
To do some application and performances tests, I had to copy a database from a third party Linux server to an ODA X7-2M. Looks pretty simple on the paper, but 2 small challenges came into the game. The first was that of course the source database was in Non-OMF while ODA works fully in OMF. The second was that the…
The 12.2 finally arrived on ODA and is now available on all generations. Modern ODAs are now supporting 11.2.0.4, 12.1.0.2 and 12.2.0.1 database engines, and these 3 versions can work together without any problem. You probably plan to upgrade some old databases to the latest engine, at least those still running on 11.2. As you may know, 11.2 is no…
A few weeks ago, I prepared a migration from SQL Server 2008 to SQL server 2016, I came across a case with deprecated data types and a Full-Text activated on these columns. To simulate this scenario, I downloaded and installed the Data Migration Assistant(DMA). Make sure that the .Net Framework 4.5 is installed on your machine before starting the installation…
In this blog let’s talk a little bit about the log-shipping feature from the SQL Server CTP 2.0. First of all, let’s say that as a Windows version, it is possible to create our own solution based on Linux (and cron jobs for example). You may find out different pointers on the internet that deal with this topic. But getting…
Have you already a plan to migrate your old SQL Server 2012 availability group infrastructure to windows 2016 and SQL Server 2016? In a previous post, I talked about distributed availability groups and cross-cluster migration scenarios but this time the game is not the same because we want to achieve an in-place upgrade of the existing AG infrastructure. This question…
How to migrate an environment that includes availability groups from one Windows Failover Cluster to another one? This scenario is definitely uncommon and requires a good preparation. How to achieve this task depends mainly of your context. Indeed, we may use a plenty of scenarios according to the architecture in-place as well as the customer constraints in terms of maximum…
The support for SQL Server 2005 is no more available, so we are migrating all the latest databases running under SQL Server 2005 to SQL server 2012 or higher! Last time, I had to uninstall an old SQL Server 2005 clustered instance in a 64 bits architecture on Windows Server 2008R2. In fact, this clustered environment contains many other instances…
