Migrating ADB-Dedicated Environment Using Zero Downtime Migration

Autonomous Database on Dedicated Infrastructure (ADB-D) can be migrated to Cloud Manager.

To migrate a PeopleSoft database environment to Cloud Manager using Zero Downtime Migration (ZDM), perform the following steps:

  1. Use ZDM to migrate an on-premises PeopleSoft application database to Autonomous Database – Dedicated (ADB-D) on OCI.

    See Zero Downtime Migration documentation.

  2. Import the ADB-D database environment in Cloud Manager.

    See the ADB Instance Type section in Importing Environment.

    Note: Starting with Cloud Manager 13, when the ADB-Dedicated database is imported, the RefreshDBWallet policy is automatically added to the environment.

  3. Lift the APP DPK to the object store using the Application Lift (see Lifting PS_APP_HOME and PS_CUST_HOME) or copy the APP DPK to a path relative to the FSS of the Cloud Manager Instance.

  4. Use Manage Node on the imported environment to add the middle tier node.

    See Managing Nodes.

Note: To support the refresh operation on Cloud Manager, it is advised to reset the passwords to 12 character passwords before migration or after migration to ADB-D.
