Change in hardware key on new installation with same SID

Dear Experts,
Background:
We installed SAP Netweaver 7.3 EHP1 on Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and applied SAP License on it.
So there was a specific SID, Hardware key and Installation No to our installation.
After few months our Server machine got crashed and we formatted it.
Problem:
Now we want to install SAP Netweaver 7.3 EHP1 again on same Server machine.
Here question is:
1. Will the Hardware Key be same if I install SAP Netweaver 7.3 EHP1 with the same SID as it was before ?
Note: We want to apply the same license that was there before the crash. But we can apply same license if and only if after installing with same SID as before, system generates the same Hardware Key as before Crash !!
Other Information:
Information that we got from SAP Note (94998 - Requesting license keys and deleting systems ) that :
" For the following data changes, you require a new license key:
Customer hardware key - database - installation number - system ID.
Thanks in advance for your apt responses.
Muddassar Khan

Hi Muddassar,
With OS reinstallation , the HW Key will change.
I suggest you apply for a new License with the new Hardware Key.
Was this a Test System??
You said after few Months , the system Crashed.
Have you taken a Backup (Windows System State) ??

SSO Configuration : Dual Stack Installation with same SID

Dear SDN users
We upgraded our BW system to 2004s with Java add-in installation. We used same SID for ABAP and Java stacks. I could not find a good document to configure SSO between ABAP and JAVA with same SID installation. I would appreciate if you can provide a link to the document or give me sequence of steps to be executed.
I am aware of note 917950 and 888687.
Thanks in Advance

We are done with upgrade. Currently we are using SSO with UIDPW. I would like to configure SSO using certificates..
If I remember correctly instguides suggest to run template installer. I did use template installer but it fails in some steps as we have same SID for ABAP and Java. I manually configured all the steps using instructions from " SAP Nw2004s BEx WEb System Landscapes" published by Tobias Kaugmann. Still no luck.

What issues we may face in installing a new Prod portal with same SID as existing one

Hello All -
We found some vbs script files in the host of EP Prod system. On confirmation from SAP we deleted those files without any harm to our prod EP system. But customer is still concerned about the security of the system and wanted us build the new EP prod system with same SID.
We approached SAP and they suggested to install a new EP system and do customization rather than performing system copy from existing prod EP system because that may still bring those security threat changes to new EP prod system. (we ll decommission the old EP if everything works fine in new EP)
Now I would like to list all the issues we may face in building a new EP system with same SID as that of already existing one and then doing entire customization again in new EP from Basis team point of view. The following are very few i could think of. Could you please add some other concerns you could think of.
1) Keeping in mind that this EP system is in use for more than 6 years, some of the customization could have been done on lower versions. So could those changes be again exported from Dev and imported into new version of EP we are building now ?
2) Can't add two hosts with same name in DNS Server
3) Can't add two systems with same SID in Solution Manager for calculation of SPS to upgrade new EP

You would have to run ipsinstall and install the new gateway. Make sure to follow the installation instruction for installing a gateway.
After you install the gateway you follow the steps in the link you posted to let the server know there is a new gateway.
Then make sure to restart the gateway and server.

HT5622 I was making new Apple ID with my other Email on iTunes, but I canceled the process on payment page. After a while i went to make a new ID with same Email but it says the Email is already in use! what should i do?

I was making new Apple ID with my other Email on iTunes, but I canceled the process on payment page. After a while I went to make a new ID with same Email but it says the Email is already in use! what should i do?

You will need to try changing the email address on the first account and see if you can then re-use it on a new account - you can try changing the email address via http://appleid.apple.com or by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on a computer's iTunes (if you don't have a spare email account then you can create one via http://gmail.com or http://hotmail.com)

IDCS3 - Paste image into new frame with same cropping offsets?

Anyone know if there's a better way do to this? It used to work in CS2, and (I know this comment won't be popular, but since half the studio I'm trying to convert brings up this point, I'll pass it along <G>), it's always worked in Quark. <G> http://indesignsecrets.com/paste-image-into-new-frame-with-same-cropping-offsets.php Be nice to get this to work without having to jump through hoops. (And please, please don't tell me I need to update to CS4 to get this basic functionality BACK). k.

Thanks, Rob. Unfortunately, I got a new error with the latest script you posted (sorry--not trying to be a pest!!). It says,
Apple Script Error!
Error Number: -2753
Error String: The variable myRend is not defined.
(One thing that's different is I'm working on a different machine than I was the first day I posted about this, but I'm using the exact same version of InDesign. Would this make a difference? I forgot to copy the original script file from the other computer before coming to work today... If I need to do that, I can.)
Thanks for your continued help!

Requesting license for two different ssystem with same SID

Hello,
Is it possible to request 2 license for two systems with same SID. The systems are on different machines and their HW key are different but both have same SID. While requesting license, will it permit to create 2 different license with SAME SID.
Regards
Deb

Hi Anil,
The one for which the license is already requested is the main development portal with SID EP2. I have installed one local version of SAP EP with the same SID EP2. Now we need a license for the second system.
If we change the HW key of the original license which is already applied in the main development portal under SMP and apply for a new license for the new local version, can it have any future implications, if any.
What is the best way to deal with the situation. Is there a full proof way to change the SID of the EP system, which I can try in the local EP system.
Regards
Deb

Database restore with same SID and different schema owner

Dear all,
I have quality system on HP-UX oracle platform which has been upgraded from 4.6C to ECC 5.0
and schema owner for the database is still SAPR3
I have installed new Test system with version ECC 5.0 with same SID and now i need to refresh its database with Data from QAS system ... owner at Test system is SAPC11 which is new installation ECC 5.0 and where SID is C11.
I need to know once i restore data what steps i need to carry out at Test system
i.e like change ENV settings from SAPC11 to SAPR3.
Please note SID is same on both hosts. and owner is different SAPR3 and SAPC11
Regards,
RR

Dear all ,
Thanks for your views . but i have already installed ECC 5.0 on
target machine with schema owner as default SAPC11 (sid)
Is there any other way out ... instead of doing reinstallation with schema owner SAPR3 / instead of doing Export-Import system copy method which again is as good as reinstallation.
I would like to have your views on following ,
when i will restore database from source to taget
al tables in target machine will be having owner as SAPR3 ( which came from source ) ...but my DB owner at Target machine is SAPC11 ( as far as ENV and all profiles are concerned ) .... cant i use SAPR3 user which got restored with backup of source to target to start my instance at Target machine... may be by changing ENV settings.
I really appreciate and thank you in adavance for sharing your views.

Adding systems with same SID in SMSY - solution manager

Dear All,
We are having systems with same SID's which belongs to different landscape created for various customers.
Currently We are having only one solution manager.
I consider this example for explanation.
Customer 1 : DEV --> QAS --> PRD ( SID's)
customer 2 : DEV --> ACC --> PRD ( SID's)
I would like to add these 6 systems in a solution manager. For Customer 1 , I have included the systems in SMSY . But when i tries to add DEV, PRD for customer 2 , it fails since this SID's are already present.
Is there any other way to include by giving the different SID's DE2 but with correct IP and host Or we need to have one more solution manager ? Please anyone suggest me on this
Thanks
Raj

Dear Juan ,
We can add systems with same SID in smsy. I have attached the way in which i have done. This may help others. Thank you all for your suggestion
Only use more than three characters if your landscape contains multiple systems with the same system ID (if you have a mirrored backup system that has the same ID as the original system, for example).
If multiple systems in your landscape have the same system ID, choose as system name the system ID with a suffix of up to 5 characters (a sequential number, for example) to create a unique system name.
The system accepts a system name of more than 3 characters if you choose Enter to confirm.
Thanks
Raj

Create a Connection on TREX for 2 systems with same SID

Hello world,
Here is my case,
We have a PRO systems With SID=PRO On Host= production , and a Sandbox system with also SID=PRO On Host=SANDBOX
now i need to create a connection in TREX in parallel so when i add the 2nd one it just edits the 1st one that i have already made
So is it possible to create 2 connection of same SID but diffrent Hosts In parallel?
If Yes how ?
Thanks In Advance...
Ahmed Salam

Hi Ahmed,
it could be possible from the TREX perspective , however such configuration isn't supported . The reason for this is that the SAP applications create indexes using the ABAP system ID and client as a part of the index names (f.e. esh:e10002~e10002~acc_sid~sid). As it's not possible to create an index with the same name 2nd time, you will not be able to use the TREX instance with two systems with same SID.
Best regards,
Mikhail

Database Recreation with same SID

Os : Linux
Database : 9.i
I am working on a remote server. I need to delete the Database and recreate with the Same SID.
DBCA is not invoked due to display problem.
I need to delete the database manually and create manually. I already created thru scripts on the same machine manually.
How to delete and create with the same SID ?

Just delete following thing
datafile ( get info from v$datafile )
control file ( get info from v$controlfile 0
redologs ( get info v$logfile )
temp file ( get info from v$tempfile )
Since you creating database with same SID , so keep init<SID>.ora/spfile , entry in oratab , tnsnames.ora entry and listener.ora

How to obtain hardware key during first installation?

I'm installing SAP Netweaver 7.0 and got stucked when the installer requested Solution Manager Key. I went to SAP site to generate the key and there I was requested the hardware key. As far as I understand, the hardware key may be obtained using saplicense program but I don't have it installed yet.
How can I provide the hardwaer key during installation?
Thanks
Renato

Hi,
You need solution manager system to generate the installer key..
Login into Solution manager system - and enter T-code SMSY
You may need to do the following steps:
1. Create a system by right clicking on System entry and select Create new system.
Enter the System Name i.e., SID (3 chars)
Product = (select from the list you which to install)
Product Version= (select from the list you which to install)
Save the entries.
2. Select Menu Item "System--->Other Configuration" and enter the SID which you have created earlier.
Enter the Server Name(hostname)
Finally click on Generate "Installation/Upgrade Key Button "
The system generates a Key ,copy that Key and paste it in the SAPINST screen when it prompts for Solman Key.

Unplanned adjustment for closed FY and changing of depr key for new FY

Hi Everyone,
i understand that this is a common problem and some folk have already post similar post, however i find that confusing or maybe i have not search enough.
here is my problem:
we have gone live for 2 year, since 2009. we have posted depreciation based on the old depre key for the last 2 years. in the current FY, the auditor have found a mistake and wanted to change the depreciation key and post the unplanned depreciation for the overcharge. may i know the correct steps to execute this change? and is there any important area that i have to pay attention to?
please take note that the current FY is already coming to an end.
example of steps:
1. post the overcharge amount through unplanned depreciation AFAA
2. change the depreciation key and change the start of depreciation date, expired useful life
3. run depreciation posting for planned and unplanned
Regards,
John

1. post the overcharge amount through unplanned depreciation AFAA
2. change the depreciation key and change the start of depreciation date, expired useful life
3. run depreciation posting for planned and unplanned
1. You create a separate transaction type for this purpose of else use 640 or 641. Posting them by using AB01 or ABSO. At this point this will be at FI-AA only, when you run depreciation to AFAB, then the GL entries will be posted.
2. You need to execute LSMW in order to change the Dep. Key, Depreciation Start Date and Expired Useful.
3. You run the repeat run in AFAB, if you have already posted the depreciation, otherwise, usually select "planned posting run".

Create new application with same ID as a previous application

10gR2, webtogo client. We are in a situation where due to what looks like some corruption issue/inability to publish correctly, we may need to drop our existing application and re-create. So the application will have a new applications.id. applications.dsn and applications.publication value. This will most certainly force all our offline users to do a re-install which we want to avoid. (correct? - I'm assuming the offline databases like a1121.odb are keyed to the 1121 applications.id)
Wondering if there is any way to re-create a new application but with the old application ID. One way we think we could do this is that after dropping the application, reset the mobileadmin APPIDS sequence so that it will pick up the ID of the old app when we create the new one. And so have the same applications.id. applications.dsn and applications.publication value.
However, wondering if we do this, we'd cause some other issue. Anyone have any ideas? (we have ticket open for the publication problem, but not much progress yet on that end.)

You may create new mode with the same transaction.
I'm not sure, that you may just "copy-paste" the content from one mode into another.
To create new mode with the same transaction, you may use the following code:
data: l_current_tcode like sy-tcode.
move sy-tcode to l_current_tcode.
 CALL FUNCTION 'TH_CREATE_MODE'
 EXPORTING
 transaktion = l_current_tcode
 del_on_eot = 1
* PARAMETERS = l_pars
 process_dark = 'X'
 IMPORTING
* mode =
 EXCEPTIONS
 max_sessions = 1
 internal_error = 2
 no_authority = 3
 OTHERS = 4.
 IF sy-subrc <> 0.
 MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
 WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
 ENDIF.
What transaction do you need to display?

SCCM Client entry in SCCM console for new VM with same hostname

HI,
I have Hyper V server with several VM's running with server OS. Recently I have stopped 2 VM's with OS windows server 2008 & 2012 & recreated new VM's with same hostnames & IP addresses. Problem is I am unable to install SCCM client on New VM
as old enrty lies in SCCM consle with client status Active. I tried to uninstall the client from console, But its showing "can not ping".
So is it ok to simply delete this entry from console so new entry will come in front?

Hi,
You can delete the object in the SCCM Admin Console,you can also install the client manually and then they will register again creating a new object with the same name.

Paste image into new frame with same offset

InDesign CS4-- I'm trying to copy an image from one frame and Paste Into another frame on the same page, and have it appear in the same position within the frame. I want it to adhere to the offset coordinates of the previous frame, but instead, it uses the offset coordinates of the page, or centers the image within the new frame. As I recall, CS2 or CS3 had a feature that allowed me to do this, but I cannot figure it out in CS4. Please help! Thanks.

Thanks, Rob. Unfortunately, I got a new error with the latest script you posted (sorry--not trying to be a pest!!). It says,
Apple Script Error!

(One thing that's different is I'm working on a different machine than I was the first day I posted about this, but I'm using the exact same version of InDesign. Would this make a difference? I forgot to copy the original script file from the other computer before coming to work today... If I need to do that, I can.)
