UMD ie Unitask Migration Director

"Unitask" is third party tool which operates with Oracle EBS to download code components as package.
Its known as UMD ( Unitask Migration Director )


More details are at http://www.unitask.com

Follow below steps to generate package and upload:

1 Navigate to Responsibility : Unitask Object Migration Manager Developer
2 Create New Package
3 Select objects needed for package
4 It will submit two concurrent programs
    UMD: Create Download Script
    Unitask Object Migration Manager: Download Package (UMD: Download Package)
5 Output report shows details of what package is made of. Output file is in tar format.
6 Once programs are completed, package can be viewed/saved by clicking view link in menu of same responsibility.
7 Download package on local machine
8 Move package file to different instance and upload using same responsibility


Notes : 
  • For modifying already created package unfreeze it and change
  • Control files or application server files can be picked up as "Application Server File" , source path can contain dynamic variables like $XBOL_TOP
  • I could not find option for migrating table along with data. May be not feasible ?
  • It creates shell script to install objects 
  • Menu/ Responsibilities can be migrated
Its simple approach to get code downloaded from one instance and migrate to other.
It covers concurrent program definition, executable, lookups , pl/sql packages, table, view definitions and many more objects.. simple r i g h t?
