Hi Vamsi,

I'm assuming you are talking about changing the database only and not doing a migration of a previous version of the portal to NetWeaver 04.

To change the database, you would have to do a heterogeneous system copy. check out the following link.

Good luck

John,

It is not possible to change the DB vendor during migration, using the migration tools, but

after upgrading EP 5.0 to EP 6.0 NW2004s on SR1 we can use the heterogeneous system copy to go from

SQL 2000 to Oracle 10g?

No cross platform (operating system) migration. Is this during migration using the migration tools

only? Or even after the EP 6.0 NW2004s on SR1 we can now then do both a DB switch and a platform swicth

(i.e. Windows/MS SQL 2000 to Unix/Oracle 10g?

Thanks.

James
