Making migration easy for you

Full Convert is a fully self-tuning software. Your migration will work as expected without you needing to adjust anything.

Data types are different in Interbase compared to Adaptive Server Enterprise. We automatically adjust them as we copy the tables so you don't have to worry about it. You can adjust the mapping rules if you wish to change the following defaults:

  • bigint integer
  • binary blob sub_type 0
  • bit boolean (if version at least 7)
  • bit smallint (if version earlier than 7)
  • datetime timestamp
  • double double precision
  • float double precision (if precision > 24)
  • image blob sub_type 0
  • int integer
  • money decimal(18,4)
  • smalldatetime timestamp
  • smallmoney decimal(18,4)
  • text blob sub_type 1
  • timestamp blob sub_type 0
  • tinyint smallint
  • ubigint integer
  • uint integer

  • unitext blob sub_type 1

Full Convert migration in 4 easy steps

1.
Adaptive Server Enterprise connection

Adaptive Server Enterprise

We will select Adaptive Server Enterprise from the drop down and fill out the connection parameters.

2.

Interbase

We will choose Interbase from the list of available database formats.

In the server field we need to type the name or IP address of the Interbase server. If you have Interbase installed on the local machine, where Full Convert is running, you can leave the server field blank. Username and password we don't need to touch in most cases as Full Convert pre-fills the "magic" values which open all Interbase databases.

If Interbase is on this machine, we can now simply click ellipsis (...) button to select GDB or IB database file (file extension depends on the version of Interbase). If the file is on remote machine, you need to type the path to the file as remote server sees it. So, if the file is in C:\t\ folder on your server, you need to write the full path, for example: C:\t\filename.GDB.

Conversion

Conversion is highly-optimized to run as fast as possible, yet provides top-notch reliability. Huge tables are converted in small chunks at a time, preserving memory and ensuring that your computer stays fast and responsive.
