DB2 – Oracle Migration Workbench a no go

31-Dec-08

The Oracle Migration Workbench (OMWB) will not work for DB2 to Oracle migrations if DB2 version is past 7.x. Why: the Workbench consists of two components, a set of common files for all databases; and a plugin (plug-in) for the specific database and version. The most recent plugin available for OMWB is for DB2 version 7.2, and that only for the DB2 LUW Windows platform. There are, however, third-party tools available which supports current DB2 releases.

We present an overview of new features that have been rolled out steadily since db2pd was introduced.
