Moving from RMS files to a relational database-

[Bob Deskin]

Are you planning on upgrading your PowerHouse version? 7.10 supported RDB 
(and Interbase, which is gone). Currently on OpenVMS, PowerHouse supports 
Oracle and Oracle RDB. 

There's some discussion on migrating from indexed (RMS) to relational in 
the PowerHouse for OpenVMS migration guide. While the guide is generally 
aimed at migrating PowerHouse from OpenVMS to UNIX, Linux, or Windows, the 
section on moving to relational applies generally. It's available for 
download from http://powerhouse.cognos.com. Near the bottom of the main 
section there's a heading titled "Migration Considerations". Click the 
OpenVMS link.

Moving from RMS files to a relational database-



Hi folks.

I am using rms files on openvms 7.3 We have one main server , an HP ES47 
with 2 gb of ram, which also runs POWERHOUSE 7.10.g3. We have about 20 GB 
of data in 400 files on this server.Largest file may be 2gb . Which 
database is easiest to migrate to? Should everything be kept on the VMS 
server   or should the database be held on a different server. Suggestions 
are welcome.
