Installation
  1. Copy the scripts (i.e. all files of the root directory of the distribution archive) into any directory you would like to run them from.
  2. Edit the iz_migration.sh: All required settings for the installation are made in the beginning of the file, in the configuration section. Don't modify anything else if you are not absolutely sure what you are doing.
  3. Execute the iz_migration.sh script to install the objects into your UTF8 Database (i.e. the target database for the migration)
  4. Edit the owners.sql file to specify which of the schemata from your original database you want to migrate data for. While the package will migrate all structures in the target database, it will only copy data (and sequences) for the schemata specified here.
  5. Execute the owners.sql file e.g. using SQL*Plus, connecting to the target (UTF8) database with the iz_migration user.
That's all - now you should be able to use the package. If you succeeded up to this point, you should continue with the usage page to read important things about how to use the package.
