DB2 To PostgreSQL Migration

-
This set of Scripts converts as much as possible of a DB2 UDB database. It does not work with DB2 zOS.
1- Extract your database schema with db2look. This will generate a db2 SQL script
db2look -d my_database_name -e -l -xd -o my_db2_sql_script
2- Launch db2topg.pl against the db2 SQL script. This will produce 3 Postgres SQL scripts:
./db2topg.pl -f my_db2_sql_script -o my_output_dir -d db2_dbname -u db2_user -p db2_pwd
  • before.sql must be run before importing data. It contains the creation statements of tables, sequences, tablespaces (if you asked for them, which you probably don't want), roles.
  • after.sql must be run after importing data. It contains the creation statements of indexes, and most constraints.
  • unsure.sql contains everything that may have to be converted: views, triggers, check constraints…
3- Run the before.sql script on PosgreSQL.
psql -e --set=ON_ERROR_STOP=1 --single-transaction -f before.sql my_ postgres_database
You can also use or not the ON_ERROR_STOP and --single-transaction parameters, depending on wether you want the script to stop on error, and cancel everything. This remark holds true for all following psql commands
4- Extract the data from db2 with something like /path/to/db2 -f export.db2
5- Load the data into PostgreSQL with  
deltocopy -d my_output_dir | psql -e --set=ON_ERROR_STOP=1 my_ postgres_database
deltocopy produces all the COPY statements to load data into PostgreSQL to its stdout. You may add a -e option to specify encoding.
To get the full list of supported encodings in Perl:
perl -e 'use Encode; print join("\n",Encode->encodings(":all"));'
If you are in a hurry, and your server can bear it, there is a parallel mode. I advise you to only use it when you have validated that everything is ok at least once:
time deltocopy.pl -d my_output_dir -j 12 -o 'psql mydb' 2>&1 | tee import_log (time is optional, it's just to measure how fast you go)

Adapt the -o option to your needs, it's the command that each parallel instance will use to output data to PostgreSQL. It must connect to the correct database, with no password.

6- Run the after.sql script on PosgreSQL
psql -e --set=ON_ERROR_STOP=1 --single-transaction -f after.sql my_ postgres_database
7- Run the unsure.sql script on PosgreSQL. Watch it fail and fix the statements that could not be translated automatically.
psql -e -f unsure.sql my_postgres_database
8- Launch a VACUUM ANALYZE and And clear the dead tubles(fragmentation)

How to find the server is whether standby (slave) or primary(master) in Postgresql replication ?

-
Method 1 You can check the mode of the server using "pg_controldata". [pgsql@test~]$ pg_controldata /usr/local/pgsql/data84/ Database cluster state: in archive recovery --> This is Standby Database Database cluster state: in production --> This is Production Database [Master] Method 2 You can use pg_is_in_recovery() which returns True if recovery is still in progress(so the server is running in standby mode or slave) postgres=# select pg_is_in_recovery(); pg_is_in_recovery ------------------- t (1 row) If Return    false   so the server is running in primary mode or master postgres=# select pg_is_in_recovery(); pg_is_in_recovery ------------------- f (1 row)

7 Steps to configure BDR replication in postgresql

-
Image
 The  BDR  (Bi-Directional Replication) project adds multi-master replication to PostgreSQL 9.4.  Postgres-BDR has a lower impact on the masters(s) than trigger-based replication solutions. There is no write-amplification, as it does not require triggers to write to queue tables in order to replicate writes.   Here We are using  postgres version 9.4.12 and bdr version 1.0.2. for configuring  multi master replication . Simply Following 7 steps you can configure the multi master replication in postgresql. To download the bdr in below link. .   https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr/archive/bdr-pg/REL9_4_12-1.tar.gz $ tar -xzvf REL9_4_12-1.tar.gz $ wget https://github.com/2ndQuadrant/bdr/archive/bdr-plugin/1.0.2.tar.gz $ tar -xzvf 1.0.2.tar.gz 1. To install BDR. $ cd ~/bdr-bdr-pg-REL9_4_12-1 $ ./configure --prefix=/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4 --enable-debug --with-openssl $ make -j4 -s install-world $ cd ~/bdr-bdr-plugin-1.0.2 $ PATH=/usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/bin:"$PATH" ./c

How to Get Table Size, Database Size, Indexes Size, schema Size, Tablespace Size, column Size in PostgreSQL Database

-
In this post, I am sharing few important function for finding the size of database, table and index in PostgreSQL. Finding object size in postgresql database is very important and common. Is it very useful to know the exact size occupied by the object at the tablespace. The object size in the following scripts is in GB. The scripts have been formatted to work very easily with PUTTY SQL Editor. 1. Checking table size excluding table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size('mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit')); pg_size_pretty ---------------- 238 MB (1 row) 2. Checking table size including table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size('mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit')); pg_size_pretty ---------------- 268 MB (1 row) 3. Finding individual postgresql database size SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size('db_name')); 4. Finding individual table size for postgresql database -including dependency index: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_rel

Ora2PG - Oracle/MySQL to Postgres DB migration Version 20.0

-
Ora2Pg is a free tool used to  migrate  an  Oracle  or MySQL database to a  PostgreSQL  compatible schema. It connects your  Oracle  database, scan it automatically and extracts its structure or data, it then generates SQL scripts that you can load into your  PostgreSQL  database. ora2pg version 20.0 software : ora2pg-20.0.tar ora2pg-20.0   https://github.com/darold/ora2pg/releases/tag/v20.0 Some Blogs about DB Migration : https://2ndquadrant.in/postgresmigration/oracle-to-postgresql-migration/ https://2ndquadrant.in/database-migration-from-oracle-to-postgres/ INSTALLATION All Perl modules can always be found at CPAN ( http://search.cpan.org/ ). Just type the full name of the module (ex: DBD::Oracle) into the search input box, it will brings you the page for download. Releases of Ora2Pg stay at SF.net ( https://sourceforge.net/projects/ora2pg/ ).

Our PostgreSQL tutorial includes all topics of PostgreSQL language such as create database, create table, drop database, drop table, select database, select table, insert record, update record, delete record, triggers, functions, procedures, cursors etc. There are also given PostgreSQL interview questions and quizzes to help you better understand the PostgreSQL language. Prerequisite: Before you start doing practice with various types of examples given in this reference, I'm making an assumption that you are already aware about what is database, especially RDBMS and what is a computer programming language. you must have the basic knowledge of SQL Problem: We assure that you will not find any problem in this PostgreSQL tutorial.
