System copy stuck on "Import ABAP" with "Invalid Migration Key"

Dear Team,
I'm performing a system copy from AS400/DB2 (of our ECC DEV) to AIX/DB2. Export has been completed successfully, while importing it is stuck on the "Import ABAP" phase with error "Invalid Migration Key". However the key is generated with correct parameters only and even we have tried the key from SAP NOTE: 1768158 but of no use.
Below is brief about systems environment:
Source System
OS : AS/400 (IBM i-Series V6R1)
DB : DB/400 (Integrated DB with IBM i)
NW: NW 7.00 ( ECC 6.0 with SP11)
Target System
OS : AIX 7.1
DB: DB2 10.1 with FP3
NW: NW 7.00 ( ECC 6.0 with SP11)
The process is being performed using SWPM SP05
Kindly find the test_MIGKEY.log for analysis and let me know if any ideas.
Thanks in advance,
SUJIT

I found below error , are you doing this in distributed environment ?
Is source and target kernels are same ?
Found error in the log.
DbSl Trace: DbSlConnect to 'ECT' as 'sapect' failed
(DB) ERROR: db_connect rc = 256
DbSl Trace: DbSlConnect to 'ECT' as 'sapect' failed
(DB) ERROR: DbSlErrorMsg rc = 29
ERROR: invalid migration keybut the system wrote other errors instead, for example, (DB) ERROR: db_connect rc = 256, this does not involve an incorrect migration key.  The errors should refer here to the actual cause (for example, the connect to the DB does not work). In this case, first check the database connect with the command <Z2 R3trans -x or R3load -testconnect, that must be executed as <sid>adm.Also make sure that the R3load that is used during the export and import has the same kernel release (for example, 7.00). You can check the relevant version of the R3load using 'R3load -version'.

  • Error during Heterogeneous System Copy -  Phase 18 Import ABAP

    Hello gurus,
    I´m facing an error during the Target Installation in a Heterogeneous System Copy (Migration). The system SAP is a SAP ECC 6.0 SR3 (Unicode and Abap+Java).
    Source server:
    Operation System:  Windows 2003 Server x64
    Database: SQL Server 2008 SP01
    Target server:
    Operation System:  Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) X64
    Database: Oracle DB 10.2g (10.2.0.4)
    I already did the all procedures in export database and all that looks fine!
    At this point I´m running the system copy procedure through SAPInst on target server (RHEL / Oracle) but in phase 18 - Import ABAP the sapinst stops... (by the way in procedure bar, I can see "Import Monitor jobs: running 0, waiting 1, completed 0, failed 18, total 19")
    I checked three log files (sapinst_dev.log ; sapinst.log ; SAPSDIC.log):

  • Homogeneous system copy using export/import on WIn/Ora

    Dear experts,
    i need to know the homogeneous system copy procedure using export/import method for following scenario as we are in the process of Data center migration of SAP systemsfrom location to another location.
    Source system:
    ECC6/BI7/APO(ABAP stack)
    OS:WIndows 2003
    D:B:Oracle 10g
    Target System: New hardware installed on Virtual environment(VMware)
    No change of SID
    ECC6/BI//APO
    OS:WINDOWS2008
    D:B: Oracle 11g
    It would be great if anyone can share the documentu2019s/links (Not SAP homogeneous system copy guide) which you have prepared for the homog. system copy using export/import on Windows/oracle  as i have done the system copy using backup/restore for ABAP stack and export/import for Java stack so far.
    Therefore i am not sure about this procedure/prerequisites/checklist needs to prepare as i have gone through the SAP guide but it is not step by step document.
    Cheers

    There are two approacahes for your  project
    1) First wether to use Oracle11g on target database
    2) Continue with Database Oracle 10.2 on traget database
    If you want to use Oracle11.2 on your target database you have to search the installers which are supported for 11.2 database. If the installers are available then only you can install your target database using Oracle11.2.Other wise t use Oracle10.2.0.4 is supported on Win2008r2. You can use this version of Oracle database to build ur target database.It works fine . Absolutely no problem.
    Later on you can upgrade the Oracle10.2 to 11.2 Onwards.
    If installers are avialble you can use Oracle11.2 also. There is absolutely no problem.
    As per my knowledge installers are available and supported with Oracle11.2.Also check the PAM before arriving on any deciscion.

  • System copy optimzation of import on DB2 LUW

    I am looking for system copy optimzation of import on DB2 LUW. R3load version is 640.
    IBM redbook (sg247774 DB2 Optimization Techniques for SAP Database Migration and Unicode Conversion) gives some general recommendations:
    1) Use the DB2 LOAD API with default settings for R3load.
    2) Create primary and secondary indexes before you load data.
    3) Specify enough utility heap to ensure parallelism of the DB2 LOAD API. use 200,000 as a starter.
    4) Others..........
    I've got some questions:
    1) "-loadproceduce fast LOAD" suitable for all packages? How can we know whether R3load call DB2 load API even we specify this parameter?
    I've tried both below:
    select tabschema, tabname from SYSIBMADM.ADMINTABINFO where load_status = 'PENDING'
    list utilities show detail
    But nothing shown.
    2) Change the 1st & 2nd line of DDL<DB>.TPL from after to before?
    3) We need change the DB paramenter, but sapinst will run automatically to trigger R3load. How can we stop sapinst temporary and change those setting before R3load?
    Thanks,
    James

    Dear Hans-Juergen,
    Your explain is more clear than SAP note and IBM redbook. If you are not the author of the note and redbook, what I want to say is those authors should be fired :-).
    For both V9.1 and V9.5(and above), load in conjunction with compress can be implemented, the prerequisite is creat/alter to table to compress mode. That is easy to understand.
    For V9.1, LOAD option will not force DB2 to create compress dictionary, so we must use LOADCOMPRESS, DB6LOAD_COMPRESSION_THRESHOLD defines the sample number of rows to create the dictionary.
    For V9.5(and above), ADC is introducted. The default LOAD (can be used in 640 & 700) will trigger compress dictionary creation automatically.
    In R3load 640, LOADCOMPRESS is suitable for V9.1 and LOAD (if table is created in compress mode in advance) is suitable for V9.5(and above).
    In R3load 700 (and above), note 1058437 gives a detail explain. Actaully, this note is out of date as it says "LOAD As before", my understanding is that it is for DB2 LUW V9.1. For V9.5, it functions as LOAD+ADC if table compression is enabled. R3load 700 gives some more options such as "Uncompress load + subsequent compmression", "Load + ADC", "Compress load based on sampling" for compression.
    So question 9:
    It is clear there is nothing to do with R3load version, it is just DB version related. Can R3laod 640 use above options designed for 700? Or note 1058437 apply for 640? Why SAP+IBM design R3load 640 and 700 into 2 different ways?
    R3load 640 can work with V9.5 directly and it is also supported in service.sap.com/PAM list.
    Question 10:  In readbook, it says "ADC creates a compression dictionary automatically when the following conditions apply"
    COMPRESS flag is enabled for the table.
    No compression dictionary exists for the table.
    The table contains a sufficient amount of data.
    Then I want to create all packages/tables with compress mode, db2 will compress table for big tables (a sufficient amount of data) and will not create compress dictionary for small tables. Suppose there are 40,000 tables, 2M/table for dictionary, that is 80G in total, not a burden for big system at all. Is this a crazy idea? What is the best practice, just for big tables?
    Thanks,
    James

  • Invalid migration key during DMO pre-processing

    Hi experts,
    I'm using DMO to upgrade and migrate my current system to HANA. I have encountered error during pre-processing phase which is caused by invalid migration key entered during the initial configuration steps.
    I'm just wondering if there's any workaround (eg. config file which can be edited etc.) so that the tool will capture the new migration key, instead of having to reset the upgrade?
    Thanks,
    Henry

    Hi Yilu,
    I have tried many possible workaround, but I ended up redo from beginning.
    Let me know if you manage to find an alternative.   =)
    Thanks,

    AFAIK, report SMIGR_CREATE_DDL should be run in se38 before starting the export. This generates the required DDL statements which are needed for system copy.
    For more info, refer system copy guide in http://service.sap.com/instguides. Hope this helps.
    Rgds,

  • MAXDB Dataabase system Copy - Fail on Phase ABAP Import - Index

    Hi All
    I wonder if somebody can shed some light on the below; we are doing a system copy of Production BW to QA BW; on ABAP import phase we get an error in the log SAPAPPL1.log (The Database being used is MAXDB)
    ERROR : Execute for create index /BI0/E0FC_C06P on /BI0/E0FC_C06 failed (dbrc=99). (SQL error -7055) error message returned by DbSl: SQL-Statement: CREATE  INDEX "/BI0/E0FC_C06P" ON "/BI0/E0FC_C06" ( "KEY_0FC_C06P" , "KEY_0FC_C06T" , "KEY_0FC_C06U" , "KEY_0FC_C061" , "KEY_0FC_C062" , "KEY_0FC_C063" , "KEY_0FC_C064" , "KEY_0FC_C065"  )
    I have checked in the releavant TSK file to see whether I can change the offending line from "err" to "ok", this does not help;
    Second thing I tried to do was to drop the index using but keep on getting message that index does not exist
    Any help would be apreciated, would I need to re-run the export
    Kind Regards

    Did you execute the report SMIGR_CREATE_DDL on the source system and placed the resulting .SQL files in the ABAP/DB/ADA directory before starting the import?

    Hi All
    These are the steps I had to perform when I faced the issue -
    Background:
    Faced the issue when I was exporting the DB instance (SQL 2000) using SAPINST.
    Steps:
    1. We are running NW04S Portal System.Copied the E:\usr\sap\DEV.... files from CI to DB server.
    2. Defined sapmnt/saploc shares for E:\usr\sap folder on DB server.
    3. Created the folder E:\usr\sap\DEV\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386\mssjdbc and copied the files base.jar,util.jar,sqlserver.jar,spy.jar files from E:\usr\sap\DEV\JC00\j2ee\jdbc folder.
    4. Retry the SAPINST. Final confirmation screen appeared.
    5. Checked all the parameters for correctness and clicked on start...export started and finished completely.
    All these steps I have done just looking at the log file.One thing I am not still clear is why SAPINST is looking for \usr\sap/...files/folder in DB instance instead of App server.
    Would appriciate if any one can clarify this.
    Thanks

  • Stuck at import ABAP

    Hello All,
    I am installing SAP NetWeaver 7.01 SR1 ABAP Trial Version .
    Everything went fine until Step 18 of 27 Import ABAP
    It got stuck at that step and nothing happens.
    I waited for more than an hour.
    What should I do?
    Thanks
    George

    After waiting for several hours I see the following on the status bar:
    Import Monitor jobs: running 1, waiting 1, completed 26, failed 0, total 28
    The status bar did progress.
    But still this is too long!
    It is still stuck in the step Import ABAP

  • Import Format with Invalid Character

    I have accidentally created an Import format with an & which is bad character for FDM. It let me create the import format but now I am recieving a page error everytime I try to access the Import Format screen. This is preventing me from deleting the problematic import format. I have tried to export the import formats, delete the bad one from the xml file and re-import but this did not work.
    Any idea of how to delete this import format?

    You'll have to fix this through the database. Below are some SQL commands that will work in SQL Server.... Oracle is probably the same idea, but I won't claim those work in PL/SQL as I don't focus on it....
    If it's in the Import Format details, you should find it by executing the following SQL :
    Safe way (just to double check what you are going to change)
    select * from tBhvImpItemfile where ImpfldFixedtext like ('%&%')
    Update tBhvImpItemfile set ImpFldFixedText = 'new text here' where ImpSeq = <number(s) returned from first query>
    You know what you're doing and don't want to see what records you might impact first
    update tbhvImpItemfile set ImpFldFixedText = replace(ImpFldFixedText, '&', '-') where ImpFldFixedText like ('%&%')
    If the & is in the Import Format (Name, Description, etc), then you would apply the same idea, but look at the table tBhvImpGroup and most likely the fields ImpGroupKey / ImpGroupDesc......

  • System Copy/ Oracle Backup/Restore as part of migrating from 32 to 64-bit

    Source system (I386): R3E47 Ext Set 2.00 SAP_BASIS 620 Kernel 640 Windows 2000, Oracle 10.2.0.4, non-unicode
    Target system (x86-64/AMD64): R3E47 Ext Set 2.00 SAP_BASIS 620 Kernel 640 Windows 2000 Oracle 10.2.0.4, non-unicode
    Am using method System Copy/ Oracle Backup/Restore to migrate from 32 to 64 bit (HOM System Copy).
    Actions on source system:
    a) Upgrade from 9.2.0.7 to Oracle 10.2.0.4
    b) Used ora_br_copy.bat to generate CONTROL.SQL and init<sid>.ora
    c) Switched logfiles
    d) Performed offline backup
    Actions on target system:
    a) Installed Oracle 10.2.0.1 and patched it to 10.2.0.4
    b) Used CD 51033746 "6.20/6.40 based products Installation Master (Edition May 2008)" to install the CI
    c) Started installation of the DB instance selecting System Copy/ Oracle Backup/Restore (same <SID> for source and target systems)
    Relevant input parameters used:
    Database schema: SAPR3
    Database character set: US7ASCII
    d) When SAPINST stopped to allow for restoring of datafiles, logs and init<sid.ora>:
    - copied datafiles and logs to the usual place
    - copied CONTROL.SQL (edited to include utilrp.sql and utlrp.sql for the migration from 32 to 64) to the DB-instance intallation . directory.
    - copied generated init<SID>.ora to the <ORACLE_HOME>\database
    e) Resumed SAPINST.
    David Byrne in a previous post suggested: "check your oracle alert file in case there are errors there you may need to update the word size for the 64bit install. Errors like this in the oracle alert file would suggest that.,

    ORA-06553"
    Well, I am getting ORA-06553: PLS-801: internal error [56319] but then my edited CONTROL.SQL (which is mainly a CREATE CONTROLFILE as it would be obtained with a ...BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE) includes at the end this:
    shutdown immediate
    startup upgrade
    spool utlirp.log
    @?/rdbms/admin/utlirp.sql
    spool off
    Shutdown immediate
    Startup
    Spool utlrp.log
    @?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
    Spool off
    exit
    which is supposed to do just that... (I think)
    Help, anyone?

    > Trying to cheer me up, are you?
    No
    > It is NOT free that reorganization! Quite expensive, actually, paid for in time! But you're right... the database needed a reorg anyway :-\
    True, not "free" - it takes time but the data will be nicely aligned then
    > And why would I have to reconfigure all those 10.2 features? Everything's either in the database or init<sid>.ora, ain't it? And my database is a pretty 10.2.0.4 with all those nice features already activated...
    No - not really auotmatically if you upgraded from 9.2 And "init<SID>.ora" is past, you nowadays use "spfile" If, of course, e. g. Automatic Undo was activated in 9.2 then it's there of course in 10.2 too.
    > One sticky point... I haven't really read the r3load procedure yet and I will before I import, but... I would say I don't have to do anything about the 32->64 bit, right? I mean, it should behave properly while reloading on 64-bit...
    The exported content is about 10 % of the size of the system, it's database and OS independent so yes, you can import it nicely on 32bit. Another tip: make sure you don't just use the default configurations for R3load, it will take a HUGE amount of time. Use the package splitter (builtin-in in sapinst) so you get a much higher parallelism when importing.

  • Reducing time required for ABAP-only copyback (system copy) process

    Our company is investigating how to reduce the amount of time it takes to perform a copyback (system copy) from a production ABAP system to a QA system.  We use a similar process for all ABAP-only systems in our landscape, ranging from 3.1h systems to ECC6.0 ABAP-only systems on both DB2 and Oracle database platforms, and the process takes approximately two weeks of effort from end-to-end (this includes time required to resolve any issues encountered). 
    Here is an overview of the process we use:
    u2022     Create and release backup transports of key system tables and IDu2019s (via client copy) in the QA system to be overwritten (including RFC-related tables, partner profile and IDOC setup-related tables,  scheduled background jobs, archiving configuration, etc.).
    u2022     Reconfigure the landscape transport route to remove QA system from transport landscape.
    u2022                    Create a virtual import queue attached to the development system to capture all transports released from development during the QA downtime.
    u2022     Take a backup of the target production database.
    u2022     Overwrite the QA destination database with the production copy.
    u2022     Localize the database (performed by DBAu2019s).
    u2022     Overview of Basis tasks (for smaller systems, this process can be completed in one or two days, but for larger systems, this process takes closer to 5 days because of the BDLS runtime and the time it takes to import larger transport requests and the user ID client copy transports):
    o     Import the SAP license.
    o     Execute SICK to check the system.
    o     Execute BDLS to localize the system.
    o     Clear out performance statistics and scheduled background jobs.
    o     Import the backup transports.
    o     Import the QA client copy of user IDu2019s.
    o     Import/reschedule background jobs.
    o     Perform any system-specific localization (example: for a CRM system with TREX, delete the old indexes).
    u2022     Restore the previous transport route to include the QA system back into the landscape.
    u2022     Import all transports released from the development system during the QA system downtime.
    Our companyu2019s procedure is similar to the procedure demonstrated in this 2010 TechEd session:
    http://www.sapteched.com/10/usa/edu_sessions/session.htm?id=825
    Does anyone have experience with a more efficient process that minimizes the downtime of the QA system?
    Also, has anyone had a positive experience with the system copy automation tools offered by various companies (e.g., UC4, Tidal)?
    Thank you,
    Matt

    Hi,
    > One system that immediately comes to mind has a database size of 2TB.  While we have reduced the copyback time for this system by running multiple BDLS sessions in parallel, that process still takes a long time to complete.  Also, for the same system, importing the client copy transports of user ID's takes about 8 hours (one full workday) to complete.
    >
    For BDLS run, I agree with Olivier.
    > The 2 weeks time also factors in time to resolve any issues that are encountered, such as issues with the database restore/localization process or issues resulting from human error.  An example of human error could be forgetting to request temporary ID's to be created in the production system for use in the QA system after it has been initially restored (our standard production Basis role does not contain all authorizations required for the QA localization effort).
    >
    For the issues that you encounter because of system copy, you can minimize this time period as you would be doing it on periodic basis (making some task list) and you can make a note of issues that you faced in previous run. So, normally i don't count it as system copy time
    Thanks
    Sunny
