Hi Axton, Thanks for your response. I have followed the same steps. The steps are 1. Export the ARSystem 7.1 non unicode database. 2.I have installed the new database instance with unicode support. 3. Import the non unicode database on newly created instance of the database.4.Run the ARS 7.1 and connecting the newly unicode database with upgrade option.
But the problem is that when we are running the ARS 7.1 with upgrade option it is nowhere asking to select explicitly unicode.

Some caveats you may run into: - characters that do not translate properly from non-unicode to unicode (7-bit ascii characters with ordinal value greater than 127). These have to be addressed at the db level after the import into the unicode db - arserver configuration (environment variables for locale/lang/oracle client, arserver configuration-ar.conf) Axton Grams On Tue, Sep 16, 2008 at 9:58 AM, Axton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > You need to: > > - create a new db instance that uses the AL32UTF8 character set > - import your non-unicode db into the new instance > - you then need to upgrade/reinstall your arserver to a unicode version > > Axton Grams > > On Tue, Sep 16, 2008 at 2:26 AM, anil RAI <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >> ** >> Hi, >> >> If ORACLE database is non Unicode and ARS is connected with non >> Unicode database. >> >> We have to upgrade the ARS as unicode then who is responsible for >> upgrading database to unicode supported. >> I mean BMC provides any document or white paper about how the DATABASE >> is upgraded to unicode. >> >> >> Thanks & Regards >> Anil >> ________________________________ >> Did you know?
