Hi,

We are planning to change the D/B from DB2 to Oracle for the message Broker Environment. There will be no change in the Message Broker environment accept the Broker D/B type.

is it possible to migrate the Broker from DB2 to Oracle at Windows amd AIX platofrms? If yes then whay are the ways to migrate the Broker from DB2 to Oracle environment?

Cheers,
Aditya

It is (IMHO) far easier to delete the broker, change the odbc defs to poing at Oracle and recreate the broker, eg's and redeploy everything.

All this can be done via scripts (you do have scripts to do this don't you?).

It is repeatable and requires less faffing about trying to migrate the existing broker DB from DB2 to ORacle.

I think smdavies is suggesting there should be scripts that you, or somone in your organisation has produced to deploy your configuration. Some people do things manually through the toolkit of course, but the flaws associated with that should be apparent to you at this point ...

FWIW I find it easier to delete & recreate the broker for anything apart from the most trivial change. Cleaner, simpler and (at risk of starting a fire) less likely to cause odd & bizzare WMB issues.

Especially when the delete & create are standard scripts as they typically are (sites like their installations a la cookie cutter).

My personal view, other views equally valid, etc, etc.

You can add the following
- Repeatable
- Verifiable
- Auditable

To the advantage of using scripts for the creation of Brokers, creation of EG's and the deployment of Flows etc.
