I'm using two softwares dbvisualizer and PGAdmin and connecting to the same database say db(Postgresql). The database db has a table timeRecord with a column which has a datatype as timestamp. I'm connecting both PGAdmin and dbvisualizer to db, and open table timeRecord. The value in the column with datatype timestamp in both dbvisualizer and pgadmin are different, even though I'm connecting to the same database. My Java application uses the value that is seen in dbvisualizer and .net app uses the value in pgadmin(There is data mismatch because of this). Can anyone please help me with this?
Thank you.

I am trying to find a way to, as close to real time as possible, have Informix 11.50.FC9GE database data available for SQL Server 2014 SSRS reports.
Right now, we have SSIS (Integration Packages) that are on a 4 hour schedule to go out to our 8 Informix databases via ODBC, gather all of their table data, and update tables on the SQL Server side.
So, table 'abc' exists on all 8 databases. All of that data is input into a single table on the SQL Server. As that data is gathered, an artificial column is created to say which database the data came from.
Select *, "250" as db from abc
This process takes about 1-2 hours to complete. If someone attempts to run a report during this time, they get skewed data.
My hope is to have all of the table data in the SQL Server, and only pass over changed data.
I was looking at SQL Server Replication, but it doesn't look like it can replicate from a Non-SQL Server database?
I also started looking at IBM InfoSphere Change Data Capture 6.5. I installed the Access Server and Management Console on a Windows server with one of my Informix databases.
I installed InfoSphere CDC Configuration Tool (Instance) on the SQL Server with the Database entries pointing to the Informix server, but when I try to start that Instance I get the error:
IBM InfoSphere Change Data Capture could not identify a supported default database encoding. The detected encoding is null. Please override the encoding with a supported IANA encoding name that matches or is very close to your default database encoding and restart IBM InfoSphere Change Data Capture. Use dmset command line utility to override the encoding.
I found this command to enter:
dmset -I instanceName database_default_character_encoding=UTF-8
But that gives an error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\InfoSphere Change Data Capture\Replication Engine for
IBM Informix Dynamic Server\bin>dmset -I vsqldev2014 database_default_character
_encoding=UTF-8
There is a problem with the IBM InfoSphere Change Data Capture service.
Frankly, I probably didn't set it up right, because there's hardly any instructions out there. :(
I did find a 3rd party software that appears to work, but they are quoting tens of thousands of dollars. No way, my company would go for that.
Any help/suggestions?
I am new to Oracle, I am using the SSMA for Oracle tool to do the migration work.
I am having some issues migrating data from an Oracle database to a blank SQL Database. I have followed the guides I have found online but still no luck.
I cannot seem to get the data(I only need tables) from the Oracle Database into the Blank SQL Database.
I have the tables within a Schema named System. I have expanded the Schema and selected the tables checkbox on my Oracle connection, when doing the migration I always get:
Data migration was not performed because no objects were selected. When selecting migrate data and putting in my connection details etc.
I have tried to select the destination database under the Server explorer at the bottom and right clicked and selected Synchronize with database however I get:
Nothing to process by this operation, because all objects are equal.
Can someone please shed some light on what I have failed to do?
Could it be related to the System Schema?
Thanks,
Managed to work around this. you cannot migrate from the SYSTEM schema as per: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/2020714
However what I did was used Redgate Oracle Compare(free trial) to migrate objects from the SYSTEM Schema to my target Schema. I could then right click this schema in SSMA to convert Schema and proceed with the migration.
We have a production SQL Server and my desktop has SQL Server 2008 R2 Management Studio software installed. I have recently been given a task to perform data mining on our server DBs.
We have around 100 or more of tables there and it is getting very difficult for me to see how tables are related or has been created.
For a particular scenario I have cornered to 3 tables amongst the 100's that we have - but I cannot formulate how these tables are related with each other. I mean if only I know that one's table column is PK / FK of other then only I can execute something like below to extract data's -
SELECT *
FROM tablea,tableb
WHERE tableb.id = tablea.id
and do data mining on the result data set.
Please let me know how can I get all the tables and it relation details? What tool I can use such that further on information like above can be extracted or database designs can be known?
I tried to create the DB diagram but it showed me below error:
Do I need to install any other tool?
Below is my MS SQL Studio version details:
I think your solution is to use a database diagram (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189078.aspx)
Just drag all tables on the screen and it will show you the relations, this of course only when the primary-keys/foreign-keys are there.
For the error you are getting:
if I google that for you I get:
The backend version is not supported to design database diagrams or tables
The answer marked as the solution is:
This is commonly reported as an error due to using the wrong version
of SMSS. Use the version designed for your database version. You can
use select ##version to check which version of sql server you are
actually using
I'm running into a problem when accessing a SQL Server table from an Oracle setup via ODBC.
I can access 90% of the tables absolutely fine, but there's a few tables that have a name that's longer than 30 characters. Whenever I try to interact with the table (describes, selects, etc) Oracle throws an "identifier too long" error and gives up.
Is there a way to coax Oracle into playing nice with the SQL Server tables?
Assuming that we are talking about an Oracle database that has a database link created to a SQL Server database via Heterogeneous Services, you would need to write code using the DBMS_HS_PASSTHROUGH package to interact with the tables in question. You'd also need to use this package if you have tables where there are column names that are not valid Oracle identifiers.
I am working on a project which migrates databases from Oracle 10g to SQL Server 2008 using SSMA(SQL SERVER MIGRATION ASSISTANT). I want to know if there is a way to actually compare the data in tables that resides on a table space say 'A' on ORACLE with the corresponding migrated database 'A' on SQL SERVER.
I am not bothered about the data types of various columns right now.If there is a way to map it then it will be great. I am just concerned with the data difference if any that exists.
Let me know if you are aware of any such free tool which does so, or any of you have written a tool which can help me out to do the same.
Thanks !!
You will have to map the PK from the source to the destination and if the colu,ns are the same, fetch a bulk and compare...
Lots of hard work.
Maybe it will be better if you could count rows and verify a statistic group of records.
