We have between 30 to 40 jobs in datastage 7.51 A that use the old ( and possibly deprecated) Oracle 7 Load stage
![Sad :(](./images/smilies/icon_sad.gif)
, yes Oracle 7 Load , seven as in seven boo hoo.. Is there any way they can be migrated to Datastage 8.7 ? Shoudl I convert these stages prior ti migration. The OCI 8 To 9 B routine sucecssfully converted OCI 8 to OCI stages and enabled migration, But the Oracle 7 Bulk load is unaffected by that routine , and I'm not sure if the jobs would be 'migratable'.
Im going to give it a try ( brute migration) , but that as i indicated , is a lot of wishful thinking in me .
