System Copy from 32 bit to 64 bit

hi,
I have a AS-JAVA System in NW2004s running in 32 bit.
Since the current machine is very slow and we could not upgrade it , I am planning to make a system copy of this system to 64 bit
Please let me know whether that is possible in SAP.
Is there any activitis to be done after the system copy for 32 bit to 64 bit

Hi Balaji,
A heterogeneous system copy will accomplish this. It is considered an OS Migration. You will need a certified migration consultant on-site if the system to be migrated is a production system, otherwise you will loose support for the target system (see http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration). You can also see the [System Copy and Migration |System Copy and Migration]section on SDN.

Homogeneous system copy from ORacle 10.2 to 11.2 ?

Hello,
We are moving our SAP infrastructure to a new datacenter.
We are currently running 15 SAP systems (ABAP and J2EE) on HP-UX 11.23, Oracle 10.2 and are planning to relocate our
SAP instances on HP-UX 11.31 ( Oracle 11.2 Ready) but we intend to stay on Oracle 10.2 and then in a few months upgrade to Oracle 11.2, to benefit from full SAP support.
We will be using the homogenous system copy technique.
Is it possible to perfrom an homogeneous system copy from Hp-UX 11.23 Oracle 10.2 to HP-UX 11.31 to Oracle 11.2 ?
I am quite certain that I have read a similar discussion on SDN, but I can't find it anymore.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
You can check compatibility via PAM section on SAP Market place.
however , it is allowed to migrate to below new combination considering your SAP platform as NW 7.0.

Error in phase import Homogeneous system copy from a BI 7.3 dual stack ABAPJAVA

Hi
I'm doing a Homogeneous system copy from a BI 7.3 dual stack ABAP+JAVA system with an Oracle DB (11g version, 11.2.0.3.0 patch level) with AIX ibm OS.
Before starting export I've executed in the source system the report SMIGR_CREATE_DDL, as described in sap note 888210, and I generated *.SQL files.
After, during the import in the target system I get the following error message:

hello,
Before anything update DB shared lib, R3load, R3ldctl and R3szchk in the target system. Also Check in source system if you have any tables o index missing in db02 transaction, If this system wa upgraded from a previous release please check TAORA and IAORA tables in source system and check all the tablespaces named in those tables are created in the target system.
let me know how it goes.

System copy from SAP R/3 47x110 with Oracle 10.2 to Oracle 11.2

Hello,
I want to do a system copy from SAP R/3 4.7 Enterprise 47x110 with Oracle 10.2 to a new machine with same SAP version but with oracle 11.2. (After this I will upgrade to ERP 6.0)
I will do this with export/import but I don't find any documentation (manuals or notes).
I only find this:
Note 1499877 - Oracle 11.2 for R/3 Enterprise 4.7 Ext. Set 1.10
but this note is only for a new installation, I don't know if this work with system copy
Note 516246 - INST- System Copy for SAP Systems based on SAP Web AS 6.20
This don't have information about oracle 11.2
I read the manual "Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP® Systems Based on SAP Web Application Server 6.20" but this also don't say nothing about oracle 11.2
Can you help me? Where can I find this documentation and what DVDs (master and kernel) should I use?
Best regards

Hi Juan,
Thanks for your answer.
That is my doubt, what installation master shoud I use for export oracle 10.2 and import in oracle 11.2?
Note "1499877 - Oracle 11.2 for R/3 Enterprise 4.7 Ext. Set 1.10" say that I can use installation master of R/3 4.7 Set 2 (47x200) to install a new system.
I found this media:
51033746_9 Installation Master 6.20/6.40 Linux on x86_64 64bit
and
51040087_7 NW 04 SR1 Inst. Mst. Linux x86_64 64bit f. Oracle 10.2/11.2
I think this is the note that I need:
Note 1478351 - Oracle 11g Support on UNIX: 6.40-Based SAP Systems

System copy from PRD to QAS based ABAP system EHP4.

Hi guys,
I have to perform homogenous system copy from PRD to QAS.
My PRD is ECC6.0 EHP4 release 701 sp 103( SAP_basis) with oracle ver 10.2.0.4.0.
Is there any specific procedure for EHP4 or i can follow the below mentioned guide.
https://websmp204.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000514722009E.pdf.
What pre-requisite i need to take care before doing the system copy?
Regards
Abhishek

Hi,
All pre-requisite is there in system copy guide.Apart from that take user master backup of quality system and after system copy, import the user master data back so that you have same users in quality system.
Also, take RFC's backup also.
Thanks

New Development system copy from Production

Hi All,
Hope you can help me out here with some ideas.
We are currently planning to implement a new SAP BW Development system, and for this we would like to make it a 1:1 copy of our current production system. Meaning all from customizing, ABAP, workbench objects etc.
But what we do not want is all the transaction and master data in infoobject, cubes etc., we are only interested in the structure and objects. Therefore we can rule out "System copy".
My question is then, is there any other ways to do this when system copy is a no go? I know we can do client copy but then we will not get all the workbench / ABAP programs which we need.
Any ideas on how to do this?
Thx. in Advance

Hi Rasmus,
But what we do not want is all the transaction and master data in infoobject, cubes etc., we are only interested in the structure and objects. Therefore we can rule out "System copy".
Options 1: As BI objects are cross client , copying client will not solve your purpose 100%.
You can perform system copy and then clean up data in DEV
Option 2: You can create a new Development and then create TRs for required configuration objects and move to new development system.
Option 3: Use SLO tools to perform container copy without any data.
Hope this helps.

Deepak Kori

System Copy from ABAP Stack to ABAP+Java Stack

Hi,
Is it possible to system copy (homogeneous or heterogeneous) from a system based on ABAP Stack to a system based on ABAP+Java Stack? Is it the normal system copy procedure or something aditional is required to do. Pl. advise. Thanks
regards
Edited by: Abdus Samad on Oct 24, 2008 8:13 AM

It depends on what you want to copy, a system copy will always wipe out the existing target. But if you want to only copy data, you might be able to do a client copy. You can start with this SAP note: [552711 - FAQ: Client copy|https://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=552711]

Heterogeneous System Copy from MS SQL to Oracle 11g

Good day friends,
I am currently in the stage of running SAPINST to continue the System Copy to the Target (i.e. the export is complete).
This may seem like a rudimentary question, but I am trying to implement Oracle 11g as the new database (and the SAP version of ECC 5). Now when I execute the sapinst, I only get the option for the Client on 9.2 and the RDBMS on 10.2.0.4.
I would like to specify 10.2 for the Client and 11g for the RDBMS, but those options are not included in the SAPINST. What must I do to get these options in the SAPINST?
Any help would be welcome.
Thanks.

I have run a system export from MSSQL and Windows Server, and I wish to run the import to Red Hat 5.4 and Oracle 11g.
I have used the latest ECC 5 Installation Master disk, which still does not have the option to install Oracle 11g. In fact, it only has the option to install Oracle 10g with an Oracle Client version 9. Surely there must be a newer option with Oracle Client 10?
Here is the product code for the Inst Master I downloaded.
6.20/6.40 based products Installation Master (Edition May 2008) Number 51033746

Post processing after system copy from standalone to cluster enviornment

Hi,
I have done a system copy(Backup restore method) from a standalone quality BW (QBW) system to cluster environment (TBW).
The steps I have followed as follows.
. setup the machines in the cluster environment ( Windows 2003 EE server,sql 2005 SP3)
. Backup the current database in the source system
. Given a different SID (TBW) during the System copy installation .its a dual stack installation.
. Restore the database in the target system and select the back up restore method during the system copy database installation step.
.The installation completed successfully and i m having some doubts regarding the post processing steps after this .
We want to retain the same client in the target system ,for this i need to rename the logical name .Kindly assist me for changing the logical name for the extraction of BW delta process from extraction server to BW system and also the other steps I have to follow after system copy.
Thanks
Arun Padikkal

Hi Arun,
You should probably post this question in a basis forum.

Heterogeneous system copy from MSSQL to Oracle

Dear Experts,
I have performed ABAP+JAVA system copy R3load based from Oracle to Oracle and MSSQL to MSSQL platform.
Homogeneous system copy many times.
But this is first time i am perfoming an Export from MSSQL source system with r3load Export method .....My Target system is havign Oracle 10.2.0.2 software installed along with installation prerequisites.
But while Importing the same MSSQL Export ...I am not getting any option for heterogeneous system copy.
I am running on ECC6.0 windows platform and i also have generated Migartion KEY.
But where should i put this key.
I have gone through system copy guide many times but unable to understand Exact options to follow to Migrate to Oracle target system. Appreciate if anyone can give me detail steps i need to carry on Target system

Infopackages are missing after an system copy from Prodution to Quality

Hi SAP Gurus,
After an DB copy, from BW Prodution to Quality, the infopackages are missing.
Can anyone can tell me how to get the infopackages from PRD to QAS.
Thanks,
Pedro Martins

Hi
Casue for package missing
In some cases infopackages will be missing because of the INIT Delta infopackage will be copied againg from Production were duplicates are created for the same Init. so in such cases the package will be missing
During DB copy if any infopackage are created in production at that point of time the system will not take that package into consideration
inorder to get the package we can do reverse transport (from production to Quality)
follow the steps as below
Transporting from BWP TO BWQ : Reverse Transports
Step1
Create request in Source System (Eg: BWP) say A and Collect required objects (infopackage)into request A
Step2
Goto TCode : SE09/SE10 --> create a transport of Copies request B (give the user name and tick on transport copies just below the workbentch request)
Step3
Check, check box for Transport of Copies and click Create , now the system will prompt one more screen
Step4
Now choose Transports of Copies and continue.
Step5
Enter required Target system(F4 help available) Eg: BWQ.
Step6
Unlock Objects(Tcode : SE03) from Request A and Move Objects to Request B(Tcode SE10).
Step7
Delete objects from Request A
Step8
Relase the request B (se09)
Step9
Now log on to the Target System(Eg: BWQ) import Queue and import request.
Step10
In BWQ queue go to menu Request >Forward> give BWD or
you can directly provide BWD as Target System in Step 2
Step11
Go to BWD and import the request.

Add QAS in to system lanscape by system copy from PRD

Dear Expert ,
I had the follow case would like to have your comment on is that possible and any thing post step need to do.
In before we only have 2 PI system . One is DEV ( XID) , the other one is PRD ( XIP ) .Now we would like to have 1 more QAS (XIQ) on our system lanscape.
I would like to know is that possible for us to system copy XIP and change to SID from XIP to XIQ , so that we will have a QAS system for testing.Please help to advise is this method possible or not and will there any risk we need to take care.
( If possible I would like to know the post step and other information may usefull too )
thx,
Tony

Am not a basis guy, But, out of experience, i can say that,
it can be easily done with the help of basis guys,
1) Make system copy of XIP & rename it to XIQ.
2)Change all the connections to QAS server of ECC. Like proxy, RFC Destinations, SLD, etc.
3)Update the file locations of XIQ to QA file locations in FILE ,FTP,SFTP CC's.
4)Also, Need to verify all other CC's , if they are pointing to PROD, those needs to be changed to QAS.

BW System copy from PRD to DEV - Reduce database size

Hi All
We are in the process of copying our existing Production BW system (3.5) to become a new Development & test system. We want to reduce the database size significantly from 1.4 Tb to about 150 - 200 Gb. We have deleted all cube and ODS data as well as much of the master data but still have much tablespace tied up in monitor entries (eg table RSMONMESS) and IDOCs. All of the notes I read say that we cannot delete from RSMONMESS in a "Prodcution" environment, however we are creating a new DEV system and really need to get rid of monitor entries anyway. So there are two questions:
1. Any idea how we can clear up table RSMONMESS or delete unwanted monitor entries ?
2. How can we delete IDOCs copied from our production system without archiving them ? (They are of no use in our new test system.)
Please help.
Many thanks in anticipation.

Hi Paul,
See SAP Note 694895 - Performance and tables RSMON, RSDONE
Note Language: English Version: 5 Validity: Valid Since 29.11.2005
Summary
Symptom
Tables RSMON* (for example, table RSMONMESS) and tables RS*DONE (for
example, table RSSELDONE) continuously increase in size in the BW system
with each request that is created.
Currently there is no option to reduce these tables.
Do not delete any entries from these tables. If you did, this would have
the following consequences:
When you carry out the next check for the requests for which you have
deleted records from these tables, the check will not run properly.
The status of the relevant requests turns RED in the monitor, and also in
all affected data targets that contain the request.
The affected request and all subsequent requests are no longer visible in
the reporting - all queries on the affected data targets then only display
old data.
Numerous dumps will occur in various situations.
You will not be able to repair the errors caused by the deletion.

Cause and Prerequisites
This is caused by a program error.
Solution
In the next BW release (BI in SAP NetWeaver 2004s - that is BW 7.0), you
will be able to archive entries from the RSMON* and RS*DONE tables using a
request archiving process that archives the administrative information for
requests.
After archiving, these tables are then considerably reduced in size.
Until then, there is unfortunately no option for reducing the tables.

Transport for System Copy from RSA1 in BW 3.5

Hi Guys,
I am not able to create transport for Source system objects for system copy in RSA1.
I have copied the production system(BWP) to sandbox(BWQ) and want to connect to same source system.
According to note 886102 when creating transport for Source system objects I am getting following error.
You cannot use request BWQK900020
Object ISIP ZPAK_5FKMUFOSQPPRNYYDZV1U6A7W0 could not be saved to order
BWQK900020
This is stand alone system but for transports I have created virtual system. Before creating virtual system I am able to create transports. But now after creating virtual systems I am not able to get pass above errors.
Any help would be appreciated also with points.
regards,
Santosh

System copy from SQL2000 to SQL2005

Hello All,
We are trying to perform a homogenous system copy. Our source system is SQL 2000 and the target system is SQL 2005. We followed the normal attach/detach procedure and ran the STM tool for the database copy. After bringing SAP online, it gives an consistency check error in SICK - "Wrong long datatypes. Perform SQL2005 after upgrade steps. Please see note 126973."
This note in turn refers to note 799058 which describes the procedure of upgrading to SQL 2005 and homogenous system copy. But we have already done that. Can somebody please help me on this and let me know what I am missing.
Thanks,
Fahad

Hi,
SICK generally gives error for Kernel issues. Perform a kernel upgrade.
Do not forget to download the latest DB dependent files for MSSQL 2005
And let us know how it goes.
