CommVault backup for SAP

Hello,
We use CommVault as our backup system and are reviewing the process for DR. We just use the standard CommVault iDataAgent but wonder if it's worth paying extra for the SAP iDataAgent or backing up the system another way (as we use SQL2005, I have suggested buying a new server, cloning it and use the log shipping facility, along with copying the database nightly).
Can anyone shed any light on how they back their systems up, please.
Thanks,
Mark.

Hello,
we've the Commvault / Oracle.
We use actually the following procedure.
1. Backups are planned via DB13
2. Backup will written via a file share to the Commvault-Server.
3. The backuped database files will backuped on the Commvault-Server via Filesystemagent
On MS SQL you can do it as following.
1. setup to run the database service and sql agent service on a domainuser
2. create a share on Commvault-Server and get the domainuser permissions
3. plan your backup on SQL Server via maintenance plan to the share
4. backup the backuped db via filesystemagent on the Commvault-Server
Best regards
Thomas

  • Know more detail about the Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One ?

    SAP Business One 9.1 is about to release this year and we can see in the feature enhancements that a significant update is planned in the Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One, more commonly known as RSP. Let’s have a quick look what update is planned for RSP in version 9.1:
    Enhancements planned in Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One 9.1
    RSP is planned to support both SAP Business One on Microsoft SQL Server as well as SAP Business One on HANA Database
    RSP Processes and Reports adapted to SAP HANA Database
    With this plan RSP will help in the areas of Download, Installation, Go-Live Check, Monitoring, Upgrade and Support for SAP Business One both   on SQL Server and HANA.
    But like me (non-SAP B1 Consultant) many of you have the question what is RSP and how it helps in support? Here I have tried to gather all information.
    What is Remote Support Platform for SAP Business One?
    The remote support platform for SAP Business One is designed to protect a SAP Business One installation by providing automated and remote support in a high-volume business.
    The platform monitors the entire SAP Business One environment. By significantly reducing the time between the appearance, identification, and resolution of issues, the remote support platform for SAP Business One minimizes the impact on customer databases and processes.
    Some Key Features of Remote Support Platform:
    Showing alerts to SAP B1 Admin about the events which require their attention, such as low disk space, database backups, etc.
    Incident Reports against the issues identified which require attention of SAP Support
    Company Database Backup and Restore options
    Regular fixes of Company Database inconsistencies
    Check, Download and Install regular updates in SAP Business One
    Upload Logs and required files to SAP Support or to Partner Support on regular basis
    Some details about RSP Backup Management
    Schedule daily, weekly, and monthly backups
    Perform differential and full database backups
    Back up transaction logs
    Back up files to shared folders on a network
    System Status Report through RSP
    From June 1st 2013, it will be mandatory to install, configure and upload the System Status Report (SSR) from Remote Support Platform (RSP) for SAP Business One in order to receive support for messages of a technical nature (upgrades, performance & crashes, etc).
    Database uploads only via RSP
    From June 1st 2013 SAP Business One Support will only accept database uploads to SAP via remote support platform for SAP Business One. In certain exceptional circumstances STFP may be used but this will constitute a minority of cases.
    Microsoft Windows PowerShell Scripting
    In the remote support platform studio, you can create tasks using Microsoft Windows PowerShell scripting. PowerShell enables you to perform remote administrative tasks on customers’ Microsoft Windows operating systems, by providing full access to Component Object Model (COM) and Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI).Some Network Prerequisite for RSP
    To achieve the internet connection test, you must allow port 80 for the RSP external communication
    Disabling antivirus firewall or add the RSP to the trusted zone of the antivirus
    Set the correct proxy
    Disabling Windows firewall in the TP_link Wireless Configuration Utility

  • Low Network Utilization in Remote Disk Backup via SAP FTP

    Hi gurus,
    I'm running whole online backup + redo log to backup my SAP server to backup server via SAPFTP (remote disk backup).
    I'm using 100Mbps network connection between the two servers, with SAP server configured to 'maximize data throughput for network application'.
    When I copy data from SAP Server to backup server manually, the speed is OK (around 98% network utilization).
    But when I use put command in program RSFTP002 (SAPFTP) for the same file, the network utilization is just around 10%.
    I use Windows Server 2003 x64 for SAP Server, and Windows Server 2008 x64 for Backup Server.
    Each has adequate RAM, 8GB for SAP Server and 4GB for Backup Server.
    Is this technical problem or is it because backup is considered background process, thus lowering its speed?
    Help will be very much appreciated.

    I would not use SAPFTP as you found out, it is slow.
    use DD instead which is much faster.

  • Disaster Recovery For SAP ECC 6.0 On Oracle

    Hi All,
    This is our infrastructure
    Windows 2003 Server
    SAP ECC 6.0
    Oracle 10
    Legato Networker Client / Library
    Actually our Backup Strategy is to do an Online Backup Every Night from monday to saturday. We want to test our backup by doing a Restore. We are assuming a complete loss of the system including hardware.
    What we do:
    1. Install the SAP System on a new host with the same hardware characteristic of the source system.
    2. Install & Configure the legato utility.
    3. Copy the E:\oracle\MIS\sapbackup\ directory from the source system to the test system.
    4. Them we put the database in mount mode.
    5. Execute the command: brrestore -b bdyxwoqv.fnf -m full  (bdyxwoqv.fnf-> Full Online Backup that was executed without problems).
    It gives the following errors:
    BR0386E File 'F:\ORACLE\MIS\SAPDATA2\SR3_10\SR3.DATA10' reported as not found by
    backup utility
    BR0386E File 'F:\ORACLE\MIS\SAPDATA3\SR3700_9\SR3700.DATA9' reported as not foun

    rdyybrzp.lst -t file -p E:\oracle\MIS\102\database\initMIS.utl': 2
    BR0374E 0 of 63 files restored by backup utility

    BR0280I BRRESTORE time stamp: 2008-10-01 17.45.19
    BR0404I BRRESTORE terminated with errors
    Since this is a new SAP system it never will find the SAPDATA files because they where on the source system and this is a new test system.
    We found the following note:
    96848 Disaster recovery for SAP R/3 on Oracle
    But this note is for SAP R/3 no for SAP ECC!
    It explain that you have to install your SAP system with the System Copy Method (is this the only way??).
    2.) Installation of the R/3 System
    The installation of SAP software contains the software installation of the database. The initial SAP database should be created again but the SAP data should not be loaded.
    Install the SAP system with the Oracle-specific system copy method, which is based on backup/restore. This method is described in the system copy guide for your Product/Release. Refer to Note 659509 for products that are based on Web AS.
    3.) Modification of the installation
    Above all, you must take into account the mounted file systems at the time of the loss. If necessary create new SAPDATA directories (mount points). These generally identify a disk or a logical storage area (logical volume).
    Are we working in the right way? maybe there is a formal procedure to do a Restore from an Online backup when you complete loss your system.
    Please some tips.
    Best Regards,
    Erick Ilarraza

    Hi Eric,
    Thanks a lot for your reply, I will follow the Note 96848 Disaster recovery for SAP R/3 on ORACLE point 5.
    5.) Restore profile and log files, as you sayed in case of disaster we will lost our "source" system.
    On the other hand to configure the legato client we take care of the name of the server, we configured the .sap, .cfg and .utl files so in theory the restore will be done on the new test system since we run the brrestore command from that system.
    Officially there is not a documentation from SAP to do a Restore from a Online Backup with SAP ECC, SAP Netweaver (ABAP / ABAP + Java). You only have the 96848 note??? I found the following information:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/65/cade3bd0c8545ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    But there is not a official procedure like a System Copy Guide or Installation Guide.

    Hello Victor,
    we need the RMAN commands that were executed and at which step this error occurs.
    Maybe it is a problem with the snap controlfile for the AUTOBACKUP or many other scenarios are possible.
    We are also using the TDP for mySAP, but without RMAN support.
    If you want to use just RMAN (like we do for non-SAP systems / no BR*Tools) you can save a lot of license/service costs, if you are using TDP for Oracle, but keep in mind that you are losing the support for that by SAP. You can directly open a call by oracle for these situations.
    If you want this scenario as described we need more detailed information. Maybe a "LIST BACKUP" would also be nice.
    Regards
    Stefan

    Hi,
    First - the basic post installation steps are:
    1. sick t-code need to execute
    2. se06 --> Perform Post-Installation Actions
    3. RZ10 --> Utilities --> Import profiles --> Of active servers
    4. execute sgen T-code --> This will take some time
    5. setup STMS
    6. create client (If custom required)
    7. Take backup of the system
    For the solution manager client you could use the default created '001' client.
    Next you need to run the solman_setup template which 'sets up' the SolMan for usage.
    Follow config guide at: https://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700000308502009E.PDF
    For installing the ECC system, only a install key(from SMSY) is to be generated from SolMan. But if you want to use the SolMan effectively, suggest you to run the entire solman_setup.

    Srikishan

  • Reg: Replacing i-way with PI for SAP ECC 6.0 version

    Hello Experts
    currently we are using R/3 4.7 version and middle ware we are using is i-way and we are planning to upgrade to ECC 6.0 and i would like to know how compatible is i-way is with SAP ECC 6.0 and is there any neccessity to replace the same with PI.
    and currently we are using RFC as a method of communication between R/3 and i-way and in future i don't want to change the existing coding , is it feasible to use PI via RFC.
    As i am ABAPer, i am new to this PI and please let me the know the risks involved and it is viability.

    Hi Gavin,
    you should always use the SQL EE for SAP installations (because of additional features that only come with EE).
    Concerning SQL 9 or SQL 10, I would definitely go for SQL 10. It has some nice features like Backup Compression, Page/Row Compression and so on. Have a look [here|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/60a236a2-8104-2b10-5ebe-8fef61cc82fd]. Just make sure that your installation meets the SR3 requirements.
    We already have SQL 10 in production and did not encounter any problems.

  • What MS SQL version for SAP ECC 6.0?

    Hi,
    we are preparing ourselves to move away from SAP R/3 & MS SQL 2000 to SAP ECC 6.0 and a new SQL platform.
    From what I found, it runs on SAP_BASIS 7.0 - so both SQL 2005 and SQL 2008 are supported.
    I was wondering, however, what SQL version do I need - would SAP ECC 6.0 run on Standard or does it require Enterprise Edition of SQL server?
    Many thanks

  • Procedure for Standby Database for SAP ERP 6.0

    Hello All,
    We are using SAP ERP 6.0 with Oracle 10g with AIX 5.3.
    We are planning to setup a standby database for our SAP ERP 6.0 production system as part of remote DR site using Oracle Data Guard.
    I was under the assumption that i can first install an erp 6.0 (ABAP) system using homogeneous system copy from my erp 6.0 (ABAP) production system and then start configuring oracle dataguard.
    But the System Copy Guide "System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 ABAP" has mentioned that "You cannot create standby systems with a system copy".
    Please suggest the best practise or the procedure for creating standby database for SAP ERP 6.0 system. Iam not looking at the steps for creating a pure oracle 10g standby database, but with SAP instances as well.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    Please refer the below mentioned link for configuring data guard.
    http://www.stanford.edu/dept/itss/docs/oracle/10g/server.101/b10823/create_ps.htm
    Below mentioned are the sequence of stpes, which needs to be followed for setting up data guard.
    3.1 Configuring the Primary Database
    3.1.1 Enable archiving and define a local archiving destination
    3.1.2 Create a password file
    3.1.3 Configuring the Oracle networking files
    3.1.4 Set initialization parameters on the primary database
    3.1.5 Take Offline/Online backup of the primary database
    3.1.6 Create a control file for the standby database
    3.1.7 Prepare initialization parameter file for the standby database and start the primary database with the changed pfile.
    3.1.8 Copy all files from the primary host to the standby host
    3.2 Configuring the Standby Database

  • How to schedule the backup for sqlserver2005/ECC5.0

    Dear all
      Our system inlude: ECC5.0,sqlserver2005,windows2003 server.I want to know that how can i implement the backup for the sap system ?
      If i use the DB13 to backup sap system ,i have to load/unload the tape manually.
      1) we use the tape library,how can i schedule the backup automatically?Maybe seems that no 3rd software can do the backup through DB13 basing sqlserver .
      2) If i want to backup automatically ,i have to backup the sqlserver directly and donnot use the DB13 ?what's the risk between them ?
    Thanks erveryone.

    Hi Dipendra,
                         For running the Adobe application You need to configure some thing in both Java as well as in ABAP stack for that abobe form application to work. You need to do some configuration in the Visual administrator for Java & also in the ABAP stack sidi using your SAP user id line creating ADSUSER , ADS_AGENT    user id creation and roles assignment and RFC destination creation etc..          
    Just refer these documents for the installation and post-configuration of Adobe Document Service on NW2004s.
