SAPDB Migration for Content server

[#1]

Hi Experts

we have a SAP content server 6.3 running on 32 bit windows on SAPDB 7.3 .

We are planning to move this to a Unix box ( AIX or Solaris .. not decided yet). Is there a comprehensive guide available about the procedure we need to follow ?

1. Do we need to upgrade the source DB before migration ?

2. As per MaxDB admin guide database copy from IA32 to unix does not work and as per note 962019 we need to use loadercli. Any tips on loadercli use would be welcome

3. Any relevant information from past experience of similar exercise

4. Does SAP support this migration if we do not buy the MaxDB migration service from SAP ?

Hi, Lars:

I successfully did the migration test yesterday.

I first installed MAXDB 7.6.03 with the installation CD on SAP SWDC, then updated the patch level to 7.6.05 build 15. After that did the export/import. No error happened during the whole process.

Thanks again for your help.
