DBStaging is it possible to add a filter ?

Tue, 13 Oct 2020 18:42:37 +0000

I am trying to export all groups and securities from one database to another one.
I have create a new .DAT file for the DBStaging tool (cf below), but in the ACC_ACCOUNTS I also get the resources and users which I don't want.

Is it possible to add a filter on this table ?
Something like

Filter="KIND='1' and ISACTIVE='1'"

My DBStaging.DAT file:

[ACC_ACCOUNTS]
OutputFile=ACCOUNTS.sql
Inserts=1
Updates=1
Deletions=1
KeyFields=K_USER
[ACC_GROUPS]
OutputFile=ACCOUNTS.sql
Inserts=1
Updates=1
Deletions=1
KeyFields=K_USER,K_USER2
[ACC_RIGHTS]
OutputFile=ACCOUNTS.sql
Inserts=1
Updates=1
Deletions=1
KeyFields=K_USER,K_TABLE
[ACC_SECURITY]
OutputFile=ACCOUNTS.sql
Inserts=1
Updates=1
Deletions=1
KeyFields=K_USER,K_TABLE,K_USER2
[ACC_SHARES]
OutputFile=ACCOUNTS.sql
Inserts=1
Updates=1
Deletions=1
KeyFields=K_USER,K_USER2

Error on DB Stagging Error: ENTT-2572 Field "CHANGE_VECTOR$$", datatype "RAW" not supported

Tue, 02 Jun 2020 08:24:42 +0000

when trying to dump a Oracle Efficy 11.3 DB I get the following error :

Connecting to XXXXX
Error: ENTT-2572 Field "CHANGE_VECTOR$$", datatype "RAW" not supported

I cannot find a view / custom table or such in the DB that has this column

Neither I can find something similar in the ALL_OBJECTS of Oracle

I un-selected the copy custom and iscustom options in the Dbstagging Tool

How can this be troubleshooted?

Hi everyone,

I'm working on a migration from 2012 to 11.3
Db Upgrade have run without any error, i can connect, i can .. etc.

But, when trying to make a dump with DbStaging, i receive this error:

Error: ENTT-2574 Field "RATE", datatype "numeric" not supported

I've try with a brand new database and i have no error.
I've compare the 3 RATE fields definition in SYS_FIELDS, between my db and the brand new db, they are the same.
i've compare the sql fields definition in the database, and they are the same
i've check in the data, and there is no datas.

DB Version is 11.3.18520.0
DbStaging version is 11.3.18520.0
Rgdb: SQL Server

I don't see where is the error.

Logging in DbStaging?

Mon, 02 Jul 2018 16:24:23 +0000

When generating scripts with the DbStaging tool we are getting the Error Unexpected DataType: ftUnknown. We have tried to look for unsupported datatypes but there are none (anymore).

Is there an option to generate a log or debug in the DbStaging tool for the point or field the error is thrown?

I directly get the following error when I've filled in the login info after choosing "Save DB as text"

Connecting to Vendis_Test
Error: ORA-00942: Tabel of view bestaat niet.

DBStaging tool for ASP clients

Wed, 22 Jul 2015 12:20:44 +0000

Hi,
What is the process for using DBStaging tool with ASP customers?
2 questions:
1) How can I access the production DB online to generate XML? As the customer can change the DB with Conficy, asking for a backup (which takes 5 days), restoring the DB in my own environment to compare, will not work as the customer can make new changes meantime

2) How do I perform update DB scripts on the production DB?

Thanks and Regards

How to apply the modification done on a Development Database to a production Database (Upgrade) ?

Mon, 26 Jan 2015 08:36:50 +0000

Dear all,

I have to do the migration from Efficy 2012 summer to Efficy 2014.

For those that are working with Efficy 2014, I would like to know how to trace the changes in the database in order to redo them when we will go live.

I heard there was a tool for that in 2014 but I don’t which one and how to use it.
Could you please point me in the right direction ?

If you have any other good advice in order to migrate a DB and Custom to 2014 they will be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards,
Stéphane RONCIN
