Oracle Migration

Hi,

We are planning an upgrade of RT from version 3.6.5 to 4.2.4. At the same time we are planning on upgrading from MySQL to Oracle version 11.2.4. I know that it can be accomplished using SQL Developer’s migration wizard. Has anyone done the Oracle migration? If so, did you encounter any issues?

Thanks in Advance,

Iain Vowles

There are actually tools for this in 4.2, rt-serializer and
rt-importer. You can find their documentation on

If you use an oracle tool, there are data conversions that need to
happen and I have no idea if they would work properly, and I would be
reluctant to support a conversion done with an untested tool.
