Hi,

Sorry but this situation is specific to a particular application ... so don't read past this line if you don't know what NNM (Network Node Manager) is.

We're using NNM 6.2 with the default solid db for trend data, event data, topology etc. They have now decided that it is about time we move this to an Oracle database/datawarehouse. I just want to know if anyone has been through this before.

We have four collector stations, each running NNM 6.2 and each with its own solid db (on HP-UX 11). Can I confirm that this is how the process will work:

Each collection station will send the data to a management station. I then have to export all the data and via an ODBC connection transfer it to the Oracle datawarehouse which will reside on a different machine. What I don't understand is, in this process do I convert each solid db on all 4 collectors to an Oracle db??? Or, will the collectors still use solid??? I am quite unclear on this.

Management won't buy another another Unix box because there are a few Windows servers lying around, so I have to put the Oracle datawarehouse db on one of them.

I'll appreciate any insights, experiences etc.

Thanks and regards,

Sujatha
