Client copy,customer systems

The delivery class controls the transport of table data when installing or upgrading, in a client copy and when transporting between customer systems. The delivery class is also used in the extended table maintenance. what is client copy and customer systems?

2 possibilities:
client export/import: tcode SCC8 (then important transport with STMS)
remote client copy: SCC9 (after creating RFC connection through SM59)

Client Copy and System Restore query

Dear All,
I have few major doubt regarding client copy and system restor.
1. In my Quality system there are 2 clients: 100 and 200.In my PRD there is only 1 client 300(other than the standard default clients). My doubt is during remote client copy with SAP_ALL profile from PRD to QUA why the space increases only in MB.
I have been asked the same question by my management. They are saying PRD is 300GB and QUA is 220GB then why the space increases in MB though all data is copied in client 200(QUA) from client300(PRD)
2. If I delete client why the space is released in MB. Because according to them it should be in GBs.
3. Now my third query is I have to restore PRD backup in QUA.So I said that this requires same <SID> and Same sapce in the sapdatafiles(OS is HP-UX 11.31 and DB is Oracle 10g).So I have to explain them why these two things are contradary to each other. In case of client copy space required is only in MB and in case of System restore of PRD in QUA sapce require is in GBs.
Your suggestions will be highly obliged.
Regards,
PG

Response > Because during client copy your customizing and other objects are copied.
The database structures,tables etc are already present.
2. If I delete client why the space is released in MB. Because according to them it should be in GBs.
Response > Since client deletion is not same as deleting database /customizing tables .If you delete complete dataspaces/tables then there will be sizeable difference.Similar logic as Response 1

Response > Since in a system copy you will copy data files (which includes tables,and all otehr strucutres ) hence the size required will be similar to PRD.

Client copy customizing data + master data

while i am performing client copy using SAP_UCUS,SAP_UCSV i used these two profiles but i am not getting master data .Please help me out in this friends.

Hi Sridhar,
SAP_UCUS is the profile which comes with client specific
customizing including auth.profile,the application data is
deleted and user data is retained.
SAP_CUSV is SAP_CUST with variants.
Go through the forum posts you may get more information....Also check the
existence of user master data in your client.Go through the [post|Client Copy for only SAP_CUST erasing master data of target client; .It might help you.

Client copy or system copy

Hi experts,
for ETL tests, can i connect an ECC Produktiv system mandant copy to BW development system or shold it be a system copy.
Thanks.

Hi,
Don't connect Production ECC for Development BW. you can copy the client then you can use it.
The better landscape is
BWD -->BWQ-->BWP
| | |
EWD -->EWQ-->EWP
Thanks

what i have to do..?? in which cleint i have to create RFC ..??pls help me out in this situation.
Thanks & Regards,

SOLUTION:
Login to client 300
Go to sm59, create rfc connection type 3, give the rfc destination : FINBASIS_300
Logon and security--> give user id and password (of any user in client 300)
create any service type of user:(user should be a service user or communication user so as to avoid password lock situation) in 300
Check Test connection: test ---à authorization test.
Login in to new client: 900
Run the tcode: FINB_TR_DEST
Click on new entries:
Give the client: 300 and destination as FINBASIS_300 and save .

Client copy with different number of tables.

Hi,
I want to do a client copy between Client '100' and Client '200'. There are 121 tables in Client 100 and 101 tables in Client 200. Is the client copy possible. If yes what are the steps.
Another question is. Is the reverse possible ie copying of client 200 (with 101 tables) to Client 100 (with 121 tables). If yes how. And also i would like to know what will be the state of 20 tables( not available in client 100). What i mean is, will these 20 tables become empty(data erased) or will contain the data as was before the client copy.
Regards
Naeem

Dear Naeem,
Kindly let us know are you doing local client copy or remote client copy . If you are doing client copy then system is on same PS level . If you are doing local client copy just perform test run and find out the differences .If it is remote client copy ,Its better to perform client export and import .
Thanks and Regards,

Create client copy

Hi all,
How to create client copy within system? Can you help me??
Thanks

Shahril,
Please follow the below instructions
1. Go to the transaction SCCL, Select the source client as 001, a target client (e.g 100)
2. The client copy does not take care sxmb_adm configuration, connection objects and exchange profile. These steps have to be performed manually.
a) Logon to the old client, and run sxmb_adm. Deregister the queues and set the role of the business system to " not yet configured".
b)Logon on to the new client register the queues and set the Business system to "Integration Server".
c) Register all Queues
d)Changes to Connections
3)
ABAP Stack
In the ABAP stack execute the transaction SM59 and locate the HTTP connection - INTEGRATION_DIRECTORY_HMI
Change the Client from 001 to 100 (as mentioned in the example)
4) Java Stack
There are a couple of places to change the logon client in the JAVA stack
1) In the Java stack -
Logon to the NW administrator and go to the Destinations
Configuration Management -> Security -> Destinations
Change the client in
a) I18NBackendConnection
b) I18NBackendConnection
f) The JCo RFC destination
The client has to changed for the four connection objects show below.
5)
Exchange Profile :
The Exchange profile defaults to the client 001 if a client copy is not performed. Go ahead and change the client for the following entries -
com.sap.aii.connect.integrationserver.r3.client
com.sap.aii.connect.rwb.r3.client
com.sap.aii.ib.server.connect.webas.r3.client
com.sap.aii.rwb.server.centralmonitoring.r3.client
The Final Step -
Change your client in your SLD business system. I found that it is better to delete the existing BS and create a new one with the same name.
Restart the system and you are ready to operate from your new system
Let me know if any issues.
Thanks

Client Copy back-end system

Hi Guys,
We have made a client copy of the back-end system of SRM (SRM 5.0). Only the back-end and not SRM has been copied.
After replication all the master- and customizing data again to SRM from the 'new' back-end I have found an issue with updating the suppliers.
It seems that I can not remove old business partners from SRM with BUPA_TEST_DELETE if these are used already in SC's. However the new copy of the back-end system has completely different suppliers we need to use in SRM. This causes for an inconsistency with the supplier numbers, as we want to keep the R/3 numbers in SRM.
Does anyone has a good idea how to proceed? That is, how can I remove the business partners (suppliers) in SRM which were used before the client copy of R/3, so that I will be able to completely get all the relevant 'new' vendors from the R/3 system after the client copy.
When I execute BUPA_TEST_DELETE it will end up in error saying the suppliers can not be removed. Do I need to archive all the old documents (SC & PO) before I can remove all vendors in SRM, or is there a way to force the removal of all the business partners from before the back-end client copy?
Thx.
Skander

Hi,
I already figured out how to solve the issue.
For anyone who wants to know how to:
-First clear the vendor groups in the vendor hierarchy; do not renove the root node
-Then run BBPGETVD which will get you the new vendors from the back-end; for me only role LF for suppliers.
-Then run BBPUPDVD which will update all the fields for the old business partner numbers in SRM which were used in documents, and replicated from the old back-end system.
In my case I had to play a litlebit with the setting 'only creditors', to update BP numbers which were not suppliers in the new back-end.
After performing these steps everything should be fine.
So it's perfectly possible to make a client copy of only the back-end system without copying SRM (in the classic scenario that is).

Logical system name to be updated while client copy--URGENT HELP REQUIRED

Hello All,
I have a query regarding the "Logical System name" updation during Client copy.
When we make a client copy(SRM Masters) for the Production system(SRM),the Old Logical system name for backend(which is attached to the SRM masters) gets copied to the new Client (Copy) which needs to be updated.
There is a std transaction BDLS through whcih w e can change the current Logical system name to a new one but this seems to work fine for System copy but not for Client copy.
So when i make a client copy of SRM masters for Production system,is there any other std way wherein i can change the "Logical system name " for the backend or do i have to write a CUSTOM program wherein entries for the Backend Logical system name in tables like CRMMLSGUID will be updated with the new Logical system name?
Any help on this is appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Disha.

Disha,
Yes, I did it twice and it worked fine.
The R/3 GUID is sent by the OLTP system (R/3) in R/3 message header.
SRM checks this GUID in CRMMLSGUID table.
If is not the same one, then replication process fails.
The only solution I found was to delete this entry. It is automatically recreated with the new GUID with the next replication, with FM CRMT_OLTP_LOGSYS1, called in BAPI_CRM_SAVE.
Look at OSS note 588701 & 765018 for deletion of CRMMLSGUID.
The issue is exactly ours: around system/client copy.
In an CRM environment, this is more critical, because we make a huge use of the middleware. But in our case, and especially after system/client copies, we can go, even if SAP does not guaranty anything, because we don't care about "old" replicated data (I don't care about old BDOCs, that should even be deleted after processing).
We have to take some risks sometimes...

Data migration from one DEV(DE1) system to other DEV(DE2) BW system using client copy or client export import

HI SAP Gurus,
Please find the below details:
SAP NetWeaver 7.3
We have to copy all customized or developed BW objects like master data, DSO's , Infocubes , Reports etc.
We need only the design changes but not the data within the DSO or cubes that exist .
We have tried below procedure:
1) Taken export of DE1 source client 400 with profile SAP_CUST
2) Imported transports generated for above export into DE2 target client 350.
3) Executed transaction SCC3 and performed post processing, post processing was successful . Still we are not able to see DSO's, infocubes ,reports.
Please lets us know what we need to do to fulfill our requirement.
Thanks,

Hi Basis,
Please refer to below documentation on how to perform system copy in BI systems
How to System Copy in SAP Business Intelligence System Landscapes (NW2004)
Post processing steps for SAP BW system copy or db copy
BI systems has mostly cross client objects. So client copy with SAP_CUST profile will not serve your purpose.
Hope this helps.

CRM 5.0 system / client copy

Hello,
we are running CRM 5.0 with e-commerce webshop scenario - abap+java system.
the systems are configured in a 3 system landscape.
the QA and prod system have the same client number.
the customer asked to refresh the QA with PROD system.
what is the recommended way to do it?
do i need to do a complete production system copy - export the Prod system using sap tools from sapinst system copy and afterwards do the import into the QA system? - in this case are there any post processing things to be done regarding the NWDI which is configured on the development system and connected to all other landscape systems?also what about post proccessing of the XCS?
the other methood is to do a client copy (just the abap) from the prod to the qa system - will it work?
again - both QA and prod systems have the same client number - originally the QA system was installed using an import from the production (after prod system installation i exported it and imported to the QA system using R3LOAD and jload from the sapinst system copy tools)
Regards,
Moshe

what is the recommended way to do it?
QA refresh using PRO data is the recommended one if you have huge database
Client copy is not recommended one for huge database....
You can find all the pre, post copy steps in standard system copy guide
