BI system copy without the Java :consequences ?

Hello,
We have a SAP BI.7 environnement that we are going to sopy from PRD to QAS.
Actually, our SAP BI.7 includes two different systems the BI-ABAP and the BI-JAVA hosted by two different hosts.
We have been asked to copy only the BI-ABAP system, not the BI-JAVA.
What are the consequences of this procedure.
Since BI-JAVA is by definition hosting the Bex Web, is there any risk of data loss : loosing some bex queries for eexample ?
Thank you in advance for your help and your attention.

Because of the user rights we got the issue.
Thanks,
Praveen.

System copy NW04S ABAP+Java same host

Hi All
I have this dev system ECC 6.0 (SAP_SID and DB_SID: D01) ABAPJava system and enterprise portal 7.0 (SAP_SID and DB_SID: P01) on the same host (hostname: host1). Now I need to do a system copy of the D01 ABAPJava system to build new system D02 on the same host - host1. Its Oracle 10g/Solaris 10.
My understanding is, after all preparations, to run sapinst with the 'database-independent procedure' to export ABAP+Java at the same time, which creates the Migration Export CD image. Does anyone know of any issues with system copies on the same host? I think I dont need to install Oracle software as its already there, right? I need to get the oracle and sap directories created for the new system D02, please correct me.
Thanks
Ali

Hi,
My understand was have the same installation of ABAP+JAVA ( UR CASE) which will install oracle and everything else auto...and lauch sapinst >> system copy >> then export to anyfolder, move that folder to target system. In target system, launch sapinst >> system copy>> and import.
Thanks,
Feel free to revert back.

EHP4 System copy of the existing SAP system

Hi!
In order to refresh our SAP ERP system with EHP4 we would like to execute a system copy of the existing SAP EHP4 system.
This system should be installed on the existing server.
Question:
Which parts of the software (SAP, Oracle) do I need to delete before or can I rewrite the existing system with the exported EHP4 system?
Any helpful information will be very appreciated!

Hi!
Many thanks for your reply.
> 1. install MCOD
> 2. Drop database and recreate
The second option means the existing system/database will be rewritten by the new database.
I have a double stack system (ABAP + Java Stack, including Portal)
Question
Does this option (Drop database and recreate) suit in my case (SAP system with double stack) or should delete old SAP system before installing the new one with SAPINST via system import?

SAP System copy without shutting down the source and the target system

Hi,
We need to need to System refresh without shutting down both the source and the target system, i read the docs from SAP looks like we need to shutdown the source system during export and import phase, is there any way to do the system refresh without shutting down the system.

Hi,
Think a little bit about what is a database and you'll get the answer that what you "need to need" is impossible.
Of course it is possible to keep the source running (hopefully, because ususally it is the production system !) by using an online backup, but you need to stop the target system because you will restore a backup on it.
If you use the export/import way, you have to stop both source and target system.

Error during Homogenous System copy of ABAP+JAVA stack

Hi All,
I'm trying to do a homogeneous system copy of an XI system NW04s on Windows 2k3 and Oracle database to another windows 2k3 machine. SCS and Database went on fine but during CI installation on the target system I'm stuck at "Run ABAP Reports" phase.
I'm getting an error:
MUT-03025 Caught ERfcExcept in Modulecall: Exception condition "WRITE_FAILED" raised..
runRADDBDIF was executed with status ERROR
The ABAP stack is however up and when I login to 000 client using DDIC user and try to execute the report RADDBDIF, I get a runtime error RAISE_EXCEPTION with Exception condition "WRITE_FAILED" raised.
A RAISE statement in the program "SAPLSUGI" raised the exception condition "WRITE_FAILED".
If anyone has encountered similar problem, kindly help me.

Sameer

Hi Juan,
I've already checked dev_disp and dev_ms but didn't find any errors. However, I got some errors in dev_w0. I'm pasting the same for your reference.

Homogeneous System copy of ABAP+JAVA stack ( PI )

Hi everyone,
I am planing to do Homogeneous system copy of our existing NW 7.0 SR3 PI System ( ABAP + JAVA).
Can anyone help me with step by step details to do in source system and target system?
Thanks..

Hi,
You should follow the system copy guide for the different option while doing the system copy
- database dependent
- R3load based (export/import)
The following document you can use as a reference, (note -this has been done on database dependent method)
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f055cbd0-97f1-2a10-c09a-907b811de000

System copy for ABAP+JAVA system using SAPINST method

Dear support,
We have recently upgraded to ECC 6.0 system and we have been still doing system copy by using backup and restore method. I know its wrong.
which involves below steps , this old methos works fine for ABAP engine and evreything looks ok.But java engine will not work.
So we need to use SAPINST method as described in note 785848 and system copy guide available on OSS. But i am really not able to understand sequence
for tasks to be carried out in this SAPINST method.
Can anybody list few sequence along with step by step procedure as i mentioned below for old system copy procedure.
Is it really difficult to make that for SAPINST as everybody says refer to standard guide and note ?
Anybody if possible can make the same way as i did below , i think it would rather be small as far as my understanding after reading those docs.
Simple old system copy procedure works for ABAP is as:
Run the following command on source system.
a. Login as <sid>adm
b. svrmgrl
c. connect internal
d. alter database backup controlfile to trace;
e. exit;
f. Above command will generate a .trc file in /oracle/P01/saptrance/usertrace directory.
g. Copy the text from CREATE CONTROLFILE until the ( and paste it in to any new .sql or controlfile.sql file.
h. Copy the controlfile.sql to target system.
i. Edit the file and replace the entire source SID to target SID.
j. Edit the reuse database command with the set database command
Copy the aft generated during the backup file from the source system to target system. (/oracle/<SID>/sapbackup)
a. Change all the source <SID> to target <SID>.
b. Only don't change the backup volume name it must be target system <SID>.
c. Copy the above aft file name line from the source back<SID>.log to target<SID>.log file.
5. Shutdown the target server instance.
6. From this onwards all the command on the target system only.
a. Login as <SID>adm
b. run the SAPDBA
c. select J (Restore/Recovery)
d. select B (Full restore and recovery)
e. select A (Select backup of type)
f. Select the offline backup which you want to restore.
g. It will take some time to restore.
h. Once the database is restored login as <SID>adm and run the
i. svrmgrl
j. connect internal;
k. startup nomount (if the database is already mounted shutdown it using the shutdown command)
l. run the following command
m. @controlfile.sql (file name of the control file contains the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement)
n. After the run the above command it should give the "Statement Processed)
o. alter database open resetlogs.
I am really looking forward to see anybody take some time out to prepare this kind of step by step procedure.
It would be of greate help for all of us for performing system copy with sapinst method.
Looking forward for your support.
Best Regards,

Hi,
As per the guide you need to do source system Technical Preparations, in that running the export preparation is also one. You need to run this first before you start the export, if and only if export will successful if preparation is successful.
Yes you need to create the export directory to take the export copy of source system, it may be any where in your server. It should be having 6 to 8 GB free space.No need to create the export directory in target system, after export is completed in the source system you copy the export directory to the target system.
Target system
Yes you need to take the back up file system and delete all the contents of the directory.
Yes it can be considered as fresh system installation but copy of source system.
Yes the process follows after you giving the export directory path .
Next screen you will get the database drop and recreate screen chouse the drop and recreate method
Next J2EE user name and password
Next DDIC password
Next you have to give kernel and oracle client dvd path
Next Parameter checking screen here if you are selected database drop and recreate you have to revise the oracle database system option
If you are selecting review next screen is database advance option you have to select the advanced option
Next you have to select following option to recreate
1 Sapdata directory mapping
2 Database instance file system
3 Create database parameter
4 Create tablespace
Next screen sapdata directory creating
Next screen you can just click next no need to change any setting
Next table creation
Next screen specify oracle instance directories
Next again parameter checking and last this is last screen
Next will be the execution screen

System Copy 701 AS-JAVA Downtown Reduction

I have completed the subject copies before. and am looking to see if there is any short cuts.
I am doing system copies of an AS-Java, BI-Java, EP, EPC system, No ABAP stack. This is an AIX Oracle 7.01 system.
To make the target systems available sooner, I was hoping to begin the installation of the target system first. I am using the db-copy method. Normal procedure would be to run sapinst on the source system to create the migration export CD for Java. And then start sapinst on the target system.
I was hoping I could complete the target system sooner if I could start the target sapinst before I complete the source sapinst export. It seems the export of java is not used to the end of the target system build so I was hoping I could complete the target build through the Oracle installation/patching. Then when I had my source system backup and java export, I could continue the target installation.
Unfortunately, the Target installation looks for a label in migration export path. So you can't even complete the parameter input on the target system. Does anyone know if there is a way around this? If this is something you do repeatedly, could you use an old java migration export location to get past this check, continue the target install up to the database restore, and then put the current java migration export files in that path?
Or do I have to forllow the normal process of Source system java export followed by target install?
Thanks, Pat

You could try the Option "Parallel Export/Import Option" with the parameter Load Procedure Fast during Import Phase
You can start setting the parameters in the target system , at the time it asks for the destination of the Export File , give the destination , and then start the Export process in the Source system .
Once the the Source system Export starts , continue with the Target System Import give the required parameters .
Now , as your export files are generated , they are simulataniously imported in the target system .
You could use the FTP option when it asks for the protocol of tranfer as it is faster .
This should considerably reduce the downtime.
Please go through the System Coupy guide at SAP Service Marketplace also , as it would be explained there in detail .

Homogeneous system copy on the same hardware and OS

Hi!
When I installed our Q system I was given the wrong user, a local admin instead of a domain admin. Now we can not perform backup with our backup tool, HP dataprotector, because of authorization issues.
My solution is to "move" the system to the domain and to do that I need to do a Homogeneous system copy.
Our system is a 64-bit CRM 7.0 ABAP and J2EE on Windows 2008 with Oracle 10.2
I've read note 676468, 1238351 and the System Copy Guide - System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 and from this I can see the following ways to do it
1. using SAPinst for export and import
2. using an offline backup
3. copy database files
What are your experiences with the different methods and what would you recommend?

> that seems to me a bit overdosed for just a user mismatch...
It is not "just" a user mismatch, the full environment is wrong (wrong user ID).
Windows stores users not as usernames but as UIDs (see HKEY\USERS in the registry). All permissions and ACLs and registry access permissions are using that UID - including the enviornmental settings, DCOM configurations etc.
Therefore I would go for system copy as stated in
Note 1233320 - Domain migration for SAP system
Technically it may work on the first look, problems may arise later. <sid>adm has to have some special permissions/policies that are not visible (like 'locking pages in memory' or 'act as part of the operating system' or 'run as batch') etc.

Homogeneous System Copy of ABAP+JAVA Sy - sapinst does not restart after re

Hi everybody!
Someone can help me?
I am doing system copy CRM 2007 (NW 7) from DEV to Sandbox system. after database recovery sap is unable to make connection to database (DB is up and running). R3trans -d finished with 0012.
My question is how to change database schema after system copy. this might be the reason sap is not coming up.
Please advise.

Hi Andy,
Did you change the tnsnames.ora file to point to your new sid?
What does the trans.log output say?
(Just a curious question, but did you apply your sap license for the copied system)

System-Copy on the Backend

Hi,
we are planing to make a copy from our productive-system P11 to the test-System C11. Our SRM-Server is connected to the existing C11 (Client 100). What must I do on the SRM-Server (SRM Server 5) to stay correctly connected? Just copy P11 to C11 won't work - because the GUID's for objects on the Backend (e.g. in the table COMM_CATEGORY on the SRM Server) will no longer match.
I looked for some guides on the SAP Service Portal - but the only document I found was dated July 2002 - and describes what to do if you want to make a copy of the EBP System...
Yours
Jürgen

Hy Jürgen,
First of all, the GUIDs are not used in the Backend, but only localy.
The problem you'll get are:
-RFC/ALE configuration
-Logical system in the Org.plan and some other atributes(the standard program BDLS doesn't change the attributes), for that use program RHOMATTRIBUTES_REPLACE from note #336688
-You have to re-synchronize the number ranges (for PR,PO and reservations depending on the integration scenario you use)
-The vendors may differ between your 2 systems
Hope it'll help.
Regards.

When we do system copy how the DTP converted

Hello All,
I am little curious to know about the DTP bahaviour after the system copy.
example: In DEv system I created the DTP A
When it went to Quality it become B
When it went to Productiion it become C
This is normal behaviour in 7.0.
When we do the system copy the DTP C will come in DEV and Quality system.
Next time suppose i changed the DTP C and I will transport it to Quality does it create new DTP in Quality or it overwrites in quality.
When we run the BDLS aftere sytsem copy will DTP technical name will change back to A in developement?
I am little curious to know about this.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Gopal

Hi Chetan,
I already checked the note but it has not mentioned the behaviou of DTP after suystem copy. It is giving the logical name with DTP and I ma talking of the DTP Technical Name.
I am really curious to know about this.
If any one did the system copy and can some one throw the light on tha. Really appreciate.
Thanks
Gopal

How do I run my application without the java prefix?

Hi, I am new to Java but have been created some cool applications that run in the terminal.
The problem is that every time I run my program I have to type "java +<program name>+", even after I compile the program with javac.
My question is how do I make it so I can just type "<program name>" without the prefix of "java"?

Write a shell script that includes the command you want to run.
Edited by: pbrockway2 on Apr 5, 2008 3:27 PM
I guess you're using Windows (or you wouldn't be asking ;). If so, shell scripts are called "batch files". Have a read of this:
[www.computerhope.com/batch.htm|http://www.computerhope.com/batch.htm]
(Executable jar files are another approach, but they are quite a bit more work. If your intention is to run a particular command like
java MyAppthen a batch file is easiest.)

Can an application work without the Java environment?

Is there anyway I can take an application that I have developed on my computer to my friend without installing the Java environment on his computer. If there is, what is the easiest way to do it?

or put your application in an applet and show it with a html site.
otherwise: no

Adjust system volume without the keyboard (broken button)

My T60p keyboard is non-functional, and when it bit the bullet the system volume was set to 40%. I have an external USB keyboard with hotkeys that can mute, but not adjust the sound levels. The windows volume is at maximum, but even then nothing is really loud, even with my external speakers at maximum or headphones. Is there anyway to adjust the volume through menus that don't include ANY keys on the standard keyboard? This includes the volume keys and any FN combinations, since the keyboard is totally dead. I could, in theory, re-map keys on my external to act like the FN key, IF that would solve the problem quickly.
