Cloning SAP instance on Windows

Hi - We have SAP on Windows server and our Database is on Unix. We want to make clone of this whole environment. From DB perspective it is easy - we can copy the database to another Unix Server. What do we have to do from Windows/SAP side?
Can we just copy the binaries to another Windows server or do we need to install SAP from scratch?

From Windows/SAP perspective you can do it in two ways either running the SAP Inst or the folder copy option. As per me the folder copy option is easier than running SAP Inst. The steps is as follows.
1. Copy the //server1/<Drive>/usr/sap/<SID> folder to //server2/<Drive>/usr/sap/<SID>
2. Determine the new Instance Number.
3. Rename folder //server2/<Drive>/usr/sap/<SID>/DVBMGxx....where xx is the new Instance no.
4. Go to the profile directory and change the following entries.
a. Replace all entries of the old database server with new database server.
b. Replace all entries of the old SAP binaries server with new SAP binaries server.
c. Replace all old instance number to new Instance number (if old instance no is 00 then change all parameter which are ended with old instance no. i.e. _00)
5. Rename profile files as per new instance no.
6. Run program SAPSTARTSRV.EXE to setup new SAP Services and MMC.
Let me know if you have any concern.
Thanks,

  • How to make SAP Instance on Windows without SAPinst (manually)

    Dear colleagues!
    On unix platform It's usually more convenient for me to make an additional sap instance by manually copying of sapmnt, usr and a couple of others folders, making links, editing /etc/services. It's faster than running SAPINST (for me).
    So the question is - how and what should I perform for making an instance, central instance as well on WINDOWS platform.
    with best regards,
    Vladimir

    Hi,
    It is not recommended way to install SAP System without following Standard Installation Method. Please read concerned Official SAP Installation Guide and follow the standard procedure without inviting more complexities and headache.

  • How to script the discovery of installed SAP instances (Windows)?

    Hi,
    I manage like two dozen of servers, some of which are pure sandboxes for Basis Persons. I sometime come over and discover a Java add-on to an existing ABAP instance, a new instance running...
    I have followed the many threads about scripting shutdown & startup of known instances and it's quite easy to do. I initially made some scripts on each server to address the installed instances, but as they change, it pretty much forces me to go back and adjust.
    There must be a simpler way!
    So I want to discover all the running SAP instances (SID) on a given server, then the system numbers attached to any existing SID. Once I can query this on a server, I will be able to stop all SAP instances properly.
    So how do you script the discovery of installed SAP instances (SID) and their respective components (instance 0, 1, ...)?
    For the record, I use Windows shutdown scripts to systematically run a script that stops SAP instances, so my Windows Admin friends can reboot the servers without concern. I use a conditional Windows startup script to start all SAP instances when Windows starts, only if we want it to (i.e. planned maintenance is a good idea to want SAP to start automatically, all other reboot is definitly not a good idea).

    Install something like Belarc Advisor and parse the resulting HTML

  • Starting and Stopping SAP Systems and Instances on Windows

    Is there a way to automatically stop/start instances on windows at boot time?
    I don't want to have to logon after a reboot and go into the mmc and start the app manually.
    Thanks,
    Dan

    Dan ,
    As Juan said it could cause problems while starting SAP at startup.
    Still if you really want to implement this...
    This is what I have found ... I never tried this but hope this should work.
    1. you must make sure that SAP[SID]_00 service is set to start automatically.
    2. you must edit your SAP START profile and add this line:
    Autostart=1
    3. make sure that the line you added IS NOT the last one in your file. if it is, your added parameter could be ignored.
    to test this out, shutdown SAP and your database, then shutdown the SAP[SID]_00 service. now start it. open SAPMMC to see if you see any starting activity. it should work fine.
    Let us know if it works.

  • Two SAP Instances (DEV & QAS) on singe windows host.

    I have query related to
    1)On above system configuration the two sap instances will run or not?
    2) Oracle that I have to install oracle two times or Can I create two databases using the single oracle executable directory ?
    3) If  I have to install oracle two times then what configuration I have to do to connect to the database?
    4)What about the Host names ? I have to define two host names ? How ?
    5) What activities I have to perform post installation ?
    Please help me on this.

    Hi Nilesh/Kaushal
    Thanks for your support, I really appriciate it.
    I had install the QAS instance successfully on one sever.
    Now both QAS & DEV instances are up & running.
    But I am facing problem while executing transactions related to database i.e st04,st03,db12,db02.
    After executing this transactions I received followng dumps.
    1) Runtime Errors         DBIF_DSQL2_SQL_ERROR

    2) Runtime Errors         RAISE_EXCEPTION
    Exception condition "DB_RELEASE_UNKNOWN" raised
    Error analysis                                                 
    A RAISE statement in the program "SAPLSORA" raised the exception
    condition "DB_RELEASE_UNKNOWN".

    caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure              
    "SKOM_CT_PERF_BUF_REDO" "(FUNCTION)"                                         
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have expected this exception      
    to occur, the running program was terminated.                                
    The reason for the exception is:                                              
    In the current program "SAPLSKOM", an arithmetic operation ('DIVIDE',         
    '/', 'DIV', or 'MOD') with a type P operand attempted to divide

    The reason for the exception is:                                            
    An overflow has been determined in the current arithmetical operation       
    containing operands of type P. Possible causes include:                     
    1.  The results field of type P is to small and the result does not fit

  • ADS in the Java stack of a Dialog instance on Windows + CI on iSeries

    Hi,
    I read the document "Using Adobe Document Services with SAP on IBM DB2 for i5/OS".
    Summary of the document -
    There are two possible technical scenarios:
    1. ADS in the Java stack of a Dialog instance on Windows
    1.1. ABAP+Java dialog instance on Windows
    1.2. Java dialog instance on Windows
    2. ADS in a SAP system on a supported platform
    2.1. ABAP+Java central instance on Windows/Unix
    2.2. Java central instance on Windows/Unix
    The document recomammeds technical scenario 1, that is, install a Windows Dialog instance.
    Choosing an ABAP+Java or Java system depends on the usage scenario for Interactive Forms:
    - Interactive PDF use: Java mandatory, ABAP+Java possible
    - Interactive use in SAP Maanger Self_Services/batching of forms:
    ABAP+Java mandatory but Note 993612 describes the status for NW04s SP12 onwards.
    End of summary -
    Our prefered rechnical scenario is: "1.2. Java dialog instance on Windows" to minimice resources.
    Our usage scenario for Interactive Forms includes "SAP Manager Self- Services".
    Our interpretation of note 993612 is that we do not need double stack installation. Could you confirnm this ?.
    If yes, we are going to install a Java Dialog instance on Windows connected to our Java Central instance on iSeries (our SAP Portal system) to use ADS.
    Best regards.

    Hello Torrell,
    your statements sound reasonable, also including SAP Note 993612.
    To decide, though, whether a single stack would be enough (especially based on the aforementioned note), you will need the advise of an ADS application expert (or someone else who has implemented your scenario, independent of the platform).
    I thus assume that you will not get an answer in this forum. Your question is ADS application specific.
    When you know for sure that a single stack will be enough, your approach to use a Windows dialog instance will be fine.
    Best regards, Barbara

  • Tools and Script for stopping and starting SAP instances in the landscape

    Hi All,
    All our SAP system are on Windows 2003 and very few on Windows 2000.
    Is there any possiblity for having a script which will stop and start SAP on all the instances in the Landscape from a central system?
    Lets say we have some 200 SAP instances and we need to down all the instances for Windows patching.
    In this case, we need to manually take remote desktop to stop and start all the instances one by one.
    Also, do we have any 3rd party automated tools for this purpose?
    Regards,
    Siva.

    Hi Siva,
    You can configure ACC for your system landscape.

  • NW IdM Install on MS 2003 server with an existing  SAP instance

    All:
       I have never worked with SQL server before and need help.
    My Scenario:
       I have an EP installed with SQL 2005 on Windows 2003.
       I would like to install a NW IdM on the same server.
    Coming from a unix/oracle environment, if I need two SAP systems on a single host, I would install two oracle instances and database and each SAP instance would point to its own home and database.
    How does it work with SQL server. Will I have to install a new instance of the SQL server software and database and if so where would it be? Right now I see that the EP SAP instance, datafile, Tempdb and Logfile resides on the E:\ drive and I also see a C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server. How does a "named instance" fit in my scenario?
    Could someone help me understand?
    Thanks
    S.

    Hi Markus
    And thanks to your answer, it helped me to succeed in this first step but unfortunately 1 minute later during the install process I have a new error telling me :

    I try to deploy and run the application I get the following error: No default system is configured in SAP System Registry. So, I try to set the perferences.
    Windows > preferences > SAP AS Java
    However, I don't know how to set it because I develop the program from the external network (via internet). Which port should be used in this connection? Please help!
    Many thanks and Regards,
    Matt Yim

    Hi MattYim,
    For Java Server configuration,
    Instance Host: will be the hostname or IP address of your SAP System.
    Instance Number: will be the SAP Instance number
    As you are connecting to this server via internet, make sure tht you have filled in the internet proxy details in the NWDS.
    This can be doen at:
    Window --> Preferences --> General --> Network Connections
    The proxy details mentioned here should be same as the Internet Proxy details configured for ypur internet explorer.
    Regards,
    Alka.

  • Cleaning up failed 11i instance on WINDOWS

    Hi,
    I am looking for a cleaning up failed 11i instance on windows. I can only find for LINUX O/S. Any document id would be appreciated. Actually we have got VIS on one of our servers, and i want to clone from prod to this server. so i wanted to clean it up first and then do clone.
    Even if i dont need to clean before clone please suggest me the DOC id.
    Regards
    Taher

    Taher,
    Do i need clean up VIS before cloning.I believe I have already answered this :)
    If you are going to clone from PROD to VIS and use the same configuration of the VIS instance, then you will have to do. Otherwise, you do not provided that you have sufficient space and resources on the target nodes.

  • Number of SAP instance for IDM 7.1 IdP ? IDM 7.1 SP5 with UI also for 7.2 ?

    Hello,
    I've just read the SAP NW IDM Identity Provider Implementation Guide. It seems very interesting. One question though : it seems the Identity Provider must be deployed on a NW CE 7.2 system.
    So we end up having a NW CE 7.1 Ehp1 for IDM UI with IDM runtime, designtime and database (all on the same server) and we must have another server or another SAP instance for the IdP with CE 7.2 ?
    Will IDM 7.1 SP5 UI also be compatible with / be developed for CE 7.2 to avoid another SAP instance ?
    Finally will Windows 2008 be officially certified for IDM 7.1 ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Hervé

    Hello Petr, I think this might be a problem. Probably you would be able to do what you want to do within a portal setup, where IdM is providing content to that portal. However, the development would take place in the portal and not per se be a development in the IdM UI. As I understand it the IdM UI is configurable to some extent, but not changeable by customers.
    Rgds.

  • Can not start SAP instance after change the profile

    Dear all
    We use system copy to build SAP system.
    Source
    Ecc 6.0(64 bit)
    Windows Server 2008 SP2
    SQL Server 2008 SP2
    Target
    Ecc 6.0(64 bit)
    Windows Server 2008 SP2
    SQL Server 2008 SP2
    In target system, we want to use the instance profile as source system,
    but after copy from source system we find that if parameter em address_space_mb = 512 in the profile,
    we can not start SAP instance.
    Could anyone explain it?
    Best regards
    Shirley

    Hi Shirley,
    I assume the hardware is less on the target than on the source or they are different at least in terms of hardware specs
    If the system is not starting, check the dev_disp.log, the stderr* files, and the dev_w0 log from the work directory to find the exact error. Does the system start if you increase or decrease this value?

    Hi Nisar,
    We would like to implement the data guard , the system landscapes are also similar to your site. Can u pls give me the documentation which explains step by step configuration. We are not able to activate oracle enterprise manager where the configuration is slightly simple. Is it possible to have the primary and standy database with same db_name?. Pls help to proceed further.
