Making migration easy for you

Full Convert is a fully self-tuning software. Your migration will work as expected without you needing to adjust anything.

Data types are different in Oracle RDB compared to IBM DB2 for i . We automatically adjust them as we copy the tables so you don't have to worry about it. You can adjust the mapping rules if you wish to change the following defaults:

bigint
number(20)
binary
blob
boolean
number(1)
decimal
number
double
binary_double
integer
number(10)
nchar
nclob (if precision > 1000)
nvarchar
nclob (if oracle_extended is true and precision > 16383)
nvarchar
nclob (if oracle_extended is false and precision > 2000)
real
binary_float
smallint
number(5)
time
date
timestz
timestamp
uniqueidentifier
raw(16)
varbinary
blob
varchar
clob (if oracle_extended is true and precision > 32767)
varchar
clob (if oracle_extended is false and precision > 4000)
xml

Step 3

Start the conversion

All source tables are selected for conversion by default. In case you only need some tables, simply deselect the ones you don't need - or deselect all, then select just the tables you do need. Click the Copy your database button to get started.

Click the Copy your database button to get started.

Step 4

Conversion

Conversion is highly-optimized to run as fast as possible, yet provides top-notch reliability. Huge tables are converted in small chunks at a time, preserving memory and ensuring that your computer stays fast and responsive.

Data is now in the target database

Use our built-in database browser to examine the copied data.
