Migrating AS/400 DB2 to SQL Server



Migrating AS/400 DB2 to SQL Server Chris Stevenson

sql server dts: The client I'm working at right now is currently moving from their current
ERP contained on AS/400 to a MS SQL Server based ERP known as SYSPRO. In
doing so they are migrating 2 physical AS/400's with 4 business units (2 on
each 400) over to SYSPRO. They have moved one out of the four and a
preparing to move the the second. When migrating over to SYSPRO they only
moved the needed information to go live on the new system hence leaving years
of sales, orders, customer and product information.

So my question is there anything just blazingly important that I should know
when using DTS to pull all of this data over to SQL Server?

I know that the structure of the 400 DB2 isn't exactly the same as SQL
Server. From what I understand multiple Libraries make up a database in the
400. Each of those contain files and logicals. Files look to be the same as
a tables and logicals look to be the same as views.

Sounds pretty good to me.
