i have faced the following erorr while performing data migration from SDEBINARY to BLOB using the Geo-processing Tool (Migrate Storage (Data Management):
ERROR 000955: Error encountered migrating the database storage
Insufficient permissions[Feature Class Name]
Failed to execute(MigrateStorage)
as shown also in the below image:
This migration took place in version ArcGIS 10.1 SP1 in Oracle RDBMS environment.
so if you are in a version(release) below 10.1 that refer to this link:
http://support.esri.com/en/bugs/nimbus/TklNMDgwMDEw
The Solution i found is: to grant the schema user the following privileges:
GRANT ALTER ANY INDEX TO USER;
GRANT CREATE ANY INDEX TO USER;
GRANT CREATE TABLE TO USER;
GRANT DROP ANY INDEX TO USER;
Unfortunately this is not stated in any ESRI documentation (so far ….)
