Migration Monitor over WAN

[Former Member]

Hi,

as part of an infrastructure major change, we have to migrate a R/3 4.6C system (source is Windows/Oracle, target is AIX/Oracle)

to a different Data Center.

I'm considering the option of using Migration Monitor to perform the R3load based migration, but my doubt is if this tool

can be used to control a migration over a Wide Area Network (the source system is hosted in Italy and the target will be in UK).

The export data is about 68 GB (DB size is about 650 GB).

Did anyone have experiences using Migration Monitor over WAN?

Thanks for any precious suggestion.

I have not done a migration over a WAN but my concern will be the the latency, quality and stability of the link...

Being a small database I would rather do an export then move the data and import... having said that If you have the time you might as well give it a go, worst case scenario is that you might need to do it again. 😄

Good Luck

Thanks for you help Juan.

We will probably make a test migration to see how the tool behaves over WAN.

I'm a bit worried because the customer wants to use this migration scenario (Migration Monitor over WAN) to go live with a critical production system in the new data center, that means we will have little time to recover possible failures if anything should go wrong.
