Re: Migrate Sybase SQL Server/11.0.3.2 ( Sybase 11.0) to Sybase 11.9.2

Hello Bret,

Thanks for reply !

I'm trying to dump to 12.5.4 because all my Sybase dev and production server are on this version, i don't know if i have a 11.9.2 server.

Tomorrow, i reply here with all the version that i have (my production co-worker work on it), at this time, I'm sure that i have : 11.0.3.2, 12.5.4 and 16.

The dump:

//On 11.0.3.2:

     sp_dboption 'yyy','single user',true

     go

     use yyy

     go

     dump database yyy to '/tmp/myDump.dmp'

     /* 2GB limitation -> noneed almost 30MB, just test*/

     /*stripe on '...'

     stripe on '..'*/

     go

I move the dump to tmp on 12.5.4

//On 12.5.4:

     use master

     go

     if exists (select * from master.dbo.sysdatabases where name = 'xxx')

       drop database xxx

     go

     create database xxx on DATA1=20 log on LOG1=10

     go

    load database xxx from "/tmp/myDump.dmp"

No error, but the  databse xxx is offline, (grey with a zigzag white stripe)

I try to go online:

     online database xxx

     go

The server awnser that the database is not ready, the dump isn't finish, i have to wait (something like that).

I wait and then i shutdown and restart the server, the database is now online but i have only procedure, user... and i haven't tables !!!

I read that i have to pass by 11.9.2 or 12.0 to migrate db or upgrade 11.0.3.2 to 12.5.4 ( if i'm in 11.9.2 i stay and SSMA obviously) because it's a major version. Do you know what version is supported in order to upgrade the 11.0.3.2 server ?

Thankyou in advance.
