Change SID of Production System

Hi guys,
Does somebody know if SAP supports the change of the * Production SID *?
Thanks for your help.
Murat

Just to add:
Restrictions to renaming apply for the logical system (Tx BD54) name for your production client. In most cases the logical system contains the (then old) SID. Changing that is not supported in production environments.

Changing SID of the system(Urgent)

Hi Folks,
We had old system with SID (EC1) and recently we installed a system with same SID (EC1). When I want to install the key, its conflicted in service.sap.com. Now I need to change my new system SID. My system was running in MS sql with windows env.
Any one have step by step guide to change the SID (Both SAP system and database) of the system.
Thanks
Regards,
Ral

Well... theres 2 options here...
1.) Reinstall the system with a new sid
2.) Proceed to do a Homogeneous system copy, then change the SID when the new system is deployed.
Regards
Juan
PS... Is the old EC1 system still been used??? if not just remove from SAP Marketplace and create a new system.

Scenario A - Change in a Production System

Hello friends,
We are already live in production, but we did not define the correct scenario at the beggining of the project. There was simply no configuration for the integration scenario between CRM (4.0) and R/3 (4.7).
Now we found we need to have the "Scenario A" activated.
Do you think we are going to have any problems or issues if we change the scenario in a live production environemnt?
I think the system's behaviour is like "Scenario X", so it will be changed to "Scenario A".
Much thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Douglas Cezar

Hello Douglas,
This has to be taken care of well in advance, but if your rquirement is some thing like this you are going to have issues. creating Orders in CRM system as well as R/3 system and changes made to the orders in any of the systems have to be reflected in the other system.
Please refer notes 889051 and 888665 and see if this helps.

Customizing open in production system for tcode KOT2

Hi gurus!
I have a problems with tcode KOt2
The problem is that the modifications are aviable also in production system, and you can change it in production system.
How can i put it again just with the seeing mode? I want to modify it just in test system.
Thanks

Hello Nereab
Transaction KOT2/_OPA is a so-called 'current setting' in SOBJ, the settings in
SCC4 do not influence this. This is the reason why the transaction can
be called in 'change' mode in your system; the philosophy concerning
this has changed since release 4.0B (where it was not a 'current
setting').
If you want to prevent changes for this transaction, you have to follow
the information given in note 420909 accordingly.

Hack release strategy customizing on production system?

Hello Gurus,
I have a problem - I made a mistake in release strategy customizing for purchase requisitions and now I need to repair it (the change is possible only on development system, but our development system is now under upgrade process and no development customizing is possible for one month).
So I need change the release strategy customizing directly on production system. Please, is there some possibility (some hack or whatever) to change it on production system ?
Thank you,
Ondrej

In SPRO Materials Management / Purchasing / Purchase Requisition / Release Procedure / Set Up Procedure Without Classification / Assign Release Indicators
For one strategy there is entered 4th level, which is redundant. I need to edit line which sets in 3rd level blocked state (it should be set for Purchase Order) and then I need to delete the line in 4th level which mistakenly sets Purchase order (actually there shloud be no 4th level entered for this strategy).

Change of decimal places in productive system

Hello
We are on ECC 6.0 in a post Go Live environment.
In our productive system we have set the decimal places to 2. For our business requirements, we would like to maintain 3 decimal places to 3 for Logistics modules (SD / MM & PP) where as we would like to maintain 2 decimal places for Financials module.
Pls advise us of the methodology of this changeover as well as the possible side effects as a result of this change.
Thanks & Regards,

Hello
The number of decimal places saved on the database is determined by the Global Settings made in Customizing for that unit (unit of measure or currency unit). If no entry has been made in Customizing, the number of decimal places saved for this key figure and characteristic value is the number of decimal places shown in the planning table at the time of saving. If the key figure has no displayable unit (for example, if it is a percentage), all the decimal places are saved.
However, you need to perform some testing of scenarios to really know the impact 2 different decimals. Definitely, there is one aspect, whether any conversion is required or is it just a display of values in decimals.
Data from FI to other modules is not a issue, but data from other modules to FI should be able to take this extra decimal.
Although personally in my opinion it is not going to cause any errors, please test the same.
Check documentation on Key Figures

How to change SID on a SAP System with Maxdb ?

Hello,
I've tryed to migrate /clone a productive system from physical to virtual for testing, and it went OK.
Now, i've done the same to another physical machine and SAP 4.6C r3 goes up,as well as the database MaxDB 7.5 on the new machine.
but now i have two problems:
First, the license key: i have to request a new one. i believe that i can do it using https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/licensekey
Second: the SID is the same, as i have clone the system from one side to another. Same OS, same kernel, etc etc etc.
In order to achieve the possibility to transform the new cloned system in a DEV system for my SAP landscape, i must rename the <sid> of my SAP.
I've changed already the SAPSYSTEMNAME = PRD to SAPSYSTEMNAME = DEV, created a new user like "devadm" renamed the directories where i could find "prd" to "dev" and even in the /home/<sid>adm files i've changed everything from PRD to DEV.
However, this have not worked for me. As that did not worked out, made the "cloning" again. And now i' again with the problem of entering the new license key ( i believe i can request it via that webpage mention above) and changing the <sid> of the system.
Is there any sap not where i can see how to change the <sid> / SAPSYSTEMNAME ?
Thank you
my system is a RHEL5 with MaxDB 7.5 64 bits
Filipe

Hi Filipe,
afaik the SID of a SAP instance cannot be changed later on.
But this is not a db-topic - so you're basically asking the wrong people here in the forum.
Perhabs is more suited for this question.
Concerning the licensekey : yes, you will need a new one if you change the hardware or db platform.

Not able to change the data of test data containers in production system

Dear All,
We have created eCATT scripts in Development SolMan System and moved the transports to Production SolMan System. Customer wants to change the data at Test data containers and run the scripts in production system but we are not able to edit the data.
May be the reason is SCC4 transaction code has set the below option.
Changes and transports for client-specific Objects
u2022 No changes allowed
Customer doesnu2019t want to change the above option and wanted to change the test data containers to give different datau2019s and run the eCATT scripts.
Could you please let me know the solution for this?
Your help is really appreciated.
Thanks,
Mahendra

eCatt has the feature where you don't need to transport the scripts or test configuration to our target system. We can keep all our scripts and test data in Solman and run this script any other system in your landscape using the System data container and target system.
Maintain the production as one of the target system in System container in Solman and point that system while running the script. Change the test data in Solman to run this script.
Let me know if you need more information
thanks
Venkat

Support message and change requests only for production system

Hi guys,
I would like to connect the solman helpesk with CHARM ( CHARM is still running ).
In CHARM I have to create a CR only for production system. ( don't know why - but works as designed).
In SAP helpdesk I can create support messages for every kind of system type but if I want to connect both (HD and CR) , the source system (ibase component) of the issue will copied to the CR and runs in error because of the rule (only p-system) of CHARM.
Of course I can change the ibase to production system manually in SDCR but it seems a very error-prone method.
Now my question: is it possible to change the ibase component due to the creation of CR by copy rule or something like this?
Kind regards
Rayko

Hi Rayko,
We do not have this option.
Once in ChaRM, we assume that the changes will always correct an issue in the PROD system.
I would recommend to open the tickets directly with the PROD system IBase, once the issue is also happening there.

Fernando

Transaction Launcher: Logical System in Production System does not change

Hi,
I created a transaction launcher in the CRM development system (CRD) to launch the transaction IL02 in the ECC 6.0 system (ECD). Then I transported the changes from CRD to the CRM production system CRP. I also transported the changes from ECD to ECC production system ECP.
However, when I see the transaction launcher in CRP system, it is still configured for the URL of ECD. I want the transaction launcher to connect to ECP. One option I have is to change the class name in the CRP system. However, I am not allowed to create a new ABAP class in the production system. Is there any other way to change the target system automatically in production system?
Thanks,
Rohan.

Thanks Piyush. Could you be a bit more specific? I followed these steps:
1. In transaction CRMS_IC_CROSS_SYS, created a logical system URL for production system
2. In customizing setting Copy/Delete Launch Transactions, deleted the transaction launcher id.
3. In customizing setting Configure Transaction Launcher, created the same transaction launcher id newly.
I still am not able to change the logical system. However, I can do it if I change the class name.
While deleting the transaction launcher id, should I be deleting all dependencies?
Regards,
Rohan.

TWO Changes In Production System

Hi , there are two changes in Production system,
one is there is a report i have to do some modification in PROD,for this have to do in DEV,QA,PROD Respectively , here whether i have to use old request to new one , is this is the right practice or not,
second in transfer rules there is a conversion routine , i have to do some modification , How can i do like once again DEV,QA,PROD
Hope u understand the problem
With Regards
MAHI

Hi,
Normally we dont have any authorization for changing the objects directly in production.
You need to make the required changes in Dev and then move to Quality and then to Production. Hence you need to create a new requrest for all the changes you made in Dev and move to Quality and then to Production.
Hope this helps.

How to change the worklist in schedule manager in production system

we are using schedule manager (SCMA) to arrange the daily process in SAP system. but we have to config the worklist and transport it to the production system every time cause in production system if we press edit worklist there would be a message called " TK430 The system administrator has set your logon client to the 'not modifiable' status.Client-specific objects can not be changed in this client."
Is there any way that I can directly change the worklist in production system?
Thanks.

Aggregates in Production System and Change Run Hierarchy

Hi All,
Can anybody tell me, Why should we create Aggregates in Production System nd How?
What is Change Run Hierarchy nd How to perform this?
Reply back me to [email protected]
Regards,
Kiran

Hi Kiran,
Aggregates are nothing but a subset of your Infocube... when a query is executed, it firstl looks for the presence of the data in your aggregates and if found then it fetches the reocrds from there itself.. Else not, it'll search teh entire infocube and then fetch the records which is at a high risk of time consumption and the performance of the Query execution slows down or becomes worse significantly.. for this purpose, you build aggregates.. how do you decide whether you should go for aggregates or not is based on the following criteria...
if the %Data Base time is > 30% and if the KPI ratio (selected to transferred records) is > 10, then you go for the aggregates... you can get these details in the ST03N transaction by choosing Expert mode and selecting BI Workload... you can find all the statistics related to the Query execution starting from the front end time to db time/...
thats all about your aggregates...
Attribute or Hierarchy change run is done so that any changes to your Master data Attributes will have to get effected in terms of your reporting...
say for eg.. ur name is XYZ and loc is in India.. this is how it'll be reflected in your reporting also.. but at a later point in time, if you have changed your location from India to Europe, then for that to be reflected in your reporting, you'll have to perform an Attribute change run for that Characteristic...
Hope it solves your issue..
