Copy a system (client) partly

Hi Gurus,
How to copy a BW system (client) partly? Can I copy by Infoareas (cubes, dso, DTPs, transformations)?
I will activate a new system and need the some objects of the other (old) client.
Regards,
Alex - Brazil

Hi,
As suggested above, the client copy is not suggested between two BI systems. What you can do is install other new system and make sure that it is having same release and patch level as the other. Now configure STMS between both of them and then after that take all the objects from old system which you want to move to new systems in to a transport requests and transport it.
I think this way there should not be any issues.
Thanks & Regards,
Sharath

  • 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.

  • Difference between system copy and Remote Client copy?

    Hi,
    Can any body suggest me , What are the major difference between System copy and Remote Client Copy.
    As per my knowledge , Both are different
    1.In system copy  entire data recovered mean copy from Source to target
    2.In Remote client copy All  Client data can't me import if you choose SAP_ALL profile also
          I hope Transaction data and user data can't copied
    Anybody share this Question and Give me some idea about this
    If anybody  give brief explanation that is very gratefull.
    regards,
    Balaram

    Hi,
    System copy will replicate all database from source to target system.
    In remote copy only client in which you are performing the copy will get refresh. Also, remote client copy will be done between systems on same patch level. with SAP_ALL profile you can bring all data in target system including your transactional data.
    Thanks

  • No Service for System SAPECC(Sender Port), Client800(R/3 system client 800)

    Hi friends,
    I am new to XI/PI I am working with IDOC to Flat file scenario I am facing the folllowing error.
    No Service for System SAPECC(Sender Port), Client800(R/3 system client 800) in integration Directory.
    can any one tell what was the reason for this error.
    Thanks in Advance,
    Ravi Yasoda.

    Hi Ravi,
    Have you imported the Business System in Integration Directory?
    Check whether  you see the logical system name in adapter specific identifiers or not...
    Also check from integration directory that cache notification was done and also check SXI_CACHE in the abap stack.
    See this thread...
    No service for system SAP***, client 001 in Integration Directory
    Please go through below content from sap note  for your issue...
    Error message: No service for system SAPABC client 123 in the integration directory
    Solution:
    You send IDocs from system ABC to XI. In the control record of the IDoc,the SNDPOR field contains the value "SAPABC". The client of the sending system is determined by the MANDT field of the control record. The system ID and client are then used to determine a service without party of the
    type (business-system/business-service):
    Business system
    -> Activities in the System Landscape Directory (SLD)(Create technical
    system):
    Create a technical system for system ABC in the SLD, and create the client for this. Do not forget to assign an "ALE logical system" (for example, "ABCCLNT123") to this technical system.
    SLD (Business system):
    You can now explicitly assign a business system to this client. For more details, refer to the SLD documentation.
    Activities in system ABC (self-registration in the SLD):
    Alternatively, you can register the system in the SLD in system ABC with Transaction RZ70. You will find detailed information about the SLD registration of systems on the SAP Service Marketplace for the
    "Exchange Infrastructure" in the document "Exchange_Installation_Guide.pdf".
    In system ABC, you can check your configuration with Transaction SLDCHECK.
    Activities in Integration Directory (import business system from SLD):
    You will find the business systems under Services Without Party in the Integration Services. In the Service menu, you will find the system identifiers, the client, and the corresponding ALE logical
    system under "Objects"->"Adapter-specific identifiers". Use the Import/Update button to copy the data from the SLD, to create business systems, or to update their identifiers.
    Business service
    -> Activities in the Integration Builder directory:
    You want to create a service without party that is not part of your system infrastructure and is therefore not maintained in the SLD. In the Integration Builder directory, you will find the "Business-Services" under Services Without Party. In the Service menu, you will find the system identifiers, the client, and the corresponding ALE logical system under "Objects"->"Adapter-specific
    identifiers".
    Activate the change list in Integration Directory.
    In system ABC, you can restart the incorrect entry from Transaction SM58 .

  • Client Copy - Which source client 000 or 001?

    I have a new SAP Netweaver 2004s SR1 ABAP+JAVA system with the following usage types:
    SRM App
    SRMLac
    AS Java
    AS ABAP
    DI
    MI
    All the post-installation steps have been completed (including the CTC template configurations for DI and MI). The Java, DI, and MI have been configured against client 001. Now I want to create a new production client. The J2EE_ADMIN and users associated with DI and MI exist in client 001.
    I want to create a new production client 010. Should I copy the users (SAP_USER) from client 001 and the customizing data (SAP_CUST) from client 000? Or, can I copy everything from client 001?  There is a lot of conflicting information in the SAP Notes in regard to which source client to use.

    You should not use a transport of copies for table USR02. Use client copy profile SAP_USER or SAP_UONL (without authorization profiles and roles).
    And you should never copy customizing from client 001 to build up a new client. 001 happens to be a ordinary customer client which does not get supplied with changes SAP delivers after the release date. New SAP Netweaver 2004s installations use client 001 to file the user masters needed for the JAVA part. But this does not change the fact that client 001 is a customer client and should not be used as a template.
    For local client copies you could use copy profile SAP_UCUS with source client 000 and source client user master 001 in one step. This has the same result as a client copy with SAP_CUST from 000 and SAP_UONL from 001 (i.e. thet authorization profiles and roles come from 000, when you need them from 001 you can either copy the missing individually or use SAP_ PROF in a separate step).

    Hi Team,
    Lync 2013 client - part of Office 2013 Pro Plus - unable to edit or remove picture, option is grayed out.
    Using Exchange 2010 Server and Lync 2010 Server at the back. To the best of my knowledge, this option is only available when using Exchange 2013 rather than Ex 2010.
    Can somebody confirm this as I am not 100% sure about it.
    Appreciate your help. Thanks

    Hi,
    The photo precedence in Lync 2013 is high-resolution photo from Exchange 2013 -> Photo from web address -> Active Directory photo. The "Edit or Remove Picture" button is available if you integrate Lync Server 2013 with Exchange 2013.
    Since you are Lync server 2010 and Exchange 2010, you can choose the following two options:
    The thumbnailPhoto attribute on the user's object in Active Directory Domain Services
    A URL configured by the user

  • Condition record's not getting copied in local client copy !!!

    Hi ALL,
    I have a one question/doubt regarding local client copy.
    Our functional team creates condition type (for e.g.: thru FV11 for MM) in one client (golden), when I take client copy of that client with SAP_All profile, but condition type is not getting copied in the new client.
    I found for Sap notes, in one note it was suggested that change documents are not copied with any profiles.
    I found in FV11, there is one option, Send Condition, thru which we can send by Logical systems, but its giving error msg u201CNo relevant partner system DEVCLNT300 exists for output category COND_A
    Message no. VJ000u201D
    Can u pls suggest proper way to copy/transport condition record in new client created?

  • Copying Queries from client to client

    Hi all,
    I have built a query within the QEA (test) client using SQ01/SQ02 and now the same query has been requested in the PEA (production) client. My question is can i copy queries across clients or does it have to be re-built?
    Cheers
    Jim

    Yes .You can move from One client to another client by copying the query program which generates once you built query in the background and that can captured in TR .
    however , you can also have option download and upload the same in PRD.
    for downloading and uploading abap query follow steps given below
    DOWNLOAD ABAP QUERY
    1. Go to SQ02 .
    Select Environment -> Query Areas..
    Select Standard Area (Client specific)
    (If Query does not exist in Standard Area then You will have to copy that Query From Global Area to Standard Area.)
    For Coping Query From Global To standard first select that query from list.
    2)Now select Environment-> Transports
    3)In next screen select Copy Global to standard radio button.
    Check Overwriting allowed (only with import/upload/copy)
    Remove Check for Test Run
    Select Transport InfoSets and queries radio button
    Fill Infoset and Query with corresponding names.
    4)Now Press Execute button.Copy Log will be displayed.
    Now Query exist in Global & Standard Area.

    Select Environment -> Query Areas..
    Select Standard Area (Client specific)
    Select Infoset from list.
    6) Select Environment -> Transports
    7)Select Download radio button
    Check Overwriting allowed (only with import/upload/copy)
    Remove Check for Test Run
    Select Transport InfoSets and queries radio button
    Fill Infoset and Query with corresponding names.
    8) Click on Execute button
    Now It will ask you to save file.save it.
    Now Open another system where you want to make copy of that infoset.
    In the same way transport the User Groups using the Transport User GRoups radio button.
    UPLOAD ABAP QUERY
    1. Go to SQ02 .
    Select Environment -> Query Areas
    Select Standard Area (Client specific)

    It will ask you for the place for uploading file.
    Select that place (from where you downloaded file).
    Now infoset & query is uploaded.Log will be displayed.
    in the same way download the user group also.
    5)Go to SQ02

  • Cannot change PO's in SRM due to system copy/ logical system error

    Hi All-
    We are running SRM extended classic scenario.  We would like to change PO's that have been created in our production system, but copied to another environment.  We are trying to change these PO's in the copied system but are getting error messages in the process purchase orders transaction in SRM, and are not allowed to change the PO's.  The message reads "purchase order contains items with different logical systems".  Our basis team changes the logical systems as part of our system copies.  Has anyone experienced this?  I this part of standard SAP functionality?  Are their logical systems in any of the transactional data(PO) tables that we need to change?
    Also, we are deleting the material group/product hierarchy in comm_hierarchy as part of our system copy tasks because the material groups each have a GUI ID that is system dependent.  Could this have something to do with our issue?  Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hey John,
    Yes I'm still at CA.  How are you? 
    I checked bbp_pd and the logical systems are changed correctly to the copied system, not set to production.  Am I missing something here? Should they be set to production logical system names even though I am trying to change the PO in the copied system?
    Thanks!

  • Copying a New Client

    HI Experts:
    I understand that this question may seem like extremely "I should know this" but i would really like some assistance with this.
    I am trying to copy a new client, and am following the attached instructions.
    Procedure
    1. Maintain the new client with transaction SCC4.
    2. Activate kernel user SAP*:
       a) Set the profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar to 0.
       b) Restart the application server.
    3. Log on to the new client with kernel user SAP* and password PASS.
    4. Copy client 000 with transaction SCCL and profile SAP_CUST.
    5. Check the log files with transaction SCC3.
    6. Deactivate kernel user SAP*:
    a) Reset login/no_automatic_user_sapstar to 1.
    Caution
    You create SAP system user SAP* on the new client before resetting
    login/no_automatic_user_sapstar.
    b) Restart the application server.
    Question:
    This is a new system
    How do i activate kernel user SAP*?  I have already created a new client but I need to log into it to copy from 000/001.
    Anyhelp would be really appreciated.

  • Basis: No service for system , client  in Integration Directory??

    Hi All,
    IDocs from SAP QA are not being sent to PI QA. I see error in SM58 in SAP QA as: No service for system , client  in Integration Directory.  Please dont jump to asnwers by looking at above error. I could fix that, but thats not the real problem.
    Because I have checked
    1) SLD home page ---> Technical Landscape --> Select Web AS ABAP --> Select the technical system --> Clients ---> Click on the client used as Business system --> Here look for the logical system is defined (No Problem here, as logical systems is defined).
    2) ID---> Click on Objects --> Service Without party/Party > Double click on business system>On the tright side--> Service --> Adapter specific Identifiers ---> Check IDoc Adpater, Logical System (No Problem here as I see Logical System).
    But I can't find values R/3 System ID and Client under "IDoc Adapter and RFC Adapter". I think thats problem here, when I click on "Compare with SLD" in edit mode, values are not getting populated into R/3 System ID and Client. It makes think there is communication error from ID to SLD. How I do confirm if its the real problem?
    3) Checked Note 940313 - IDoc adapter: Error messages in SM58, No problem here
    4) Did SLDCHECK from PI QA, works fine, no problems here
    Both PI DEV and PI QA pointing to the same SLD. When I send IDocs from SAP QA to PI DEV, everything works fine. I can't send IDoc from SAP QA to PI DEV (changed RFC des to point to PI QA, it shouldn't be a problem).
    How do I find out if communication between PI QA - ID is workign fine with the SLD? Is there any other issue you can think of causing the above error?
    Thank You,
    Indrasena Janga

    *I have trobleshooted  a similar issue. In my case also the tRFC failed with the error "No service for system SAP, client 400 in Integration Directory".There were 11 IDOCS associated with this tRFC and when I saw control record of first IDOC,in sender information ,the sender partner number was wrong.Instead of "SAPSID",it was found as just "SAP".Where as the remaining ten were maintained with correct sender partner number.remaining ten IDOCS were dependant on first one.
    Thanks,

  • !0.5.8 How do I copy the 'system' form one internal Hard drive to an other (BY CD Packed up) Thank you

    !0.5.8 How do I copy the 'system' form one internal Hard drive to an other (BY CD Packed up)  I have tried but it will no show 'live' system folder - do and how can I bless it ? Thank you

    Carbon Copy Cloner will allow you to de-select directory trees, so you could use it to copy over everything EXCEPT the /Users directory tree.
    Mac OS X is NOT just the System Folder.  If you do not copy over the rest of Mac OS X, it will not boot.  So better to exclude Users and take everything else, then it is to try and pick and choose.
    The other approach is to install a New Mac OS X, and then copy over the stuff you want from the home folder(s) and reinstall any apps you want.

  • Windows Server 2012 - Hyper-V - Cluster Sharded Storage - VHDX unexpectedly gets copied to System Volume Information by "System", Virtual Machines stops respondig

    We have a problem with one of our deployments of Windows Server 2012 Hyper-V with a 2 node cluster connected to a iSCSI SAN.
    Our setup:
    Hosts - Both run Windows Server 2012 Standard and are clustered.
    HP ProLiant G7, 24 GB RAM. This is the primary host and normaly all VMs run on this host.
    HP ProLiant G5, 20 GB RAM. This is the secondary host that and is intended to be used in case of failure of the primary host.
    We have no antivirus on the hosts and the scheduled ShadowCopy (previous version of files) is switched off.
    iSCSI SAN:
    QNAP NAS TS-869 Pro, 8 INTEL SSDSA2CW160G3 160 GB i a RAID 5 with a Host Spare. 2 Teamed NIC.
    Switch:
    DLINK DGS-1210-16 - Both the network cards of the Hosts that are dedicated to the Storage and the Storage itself are connected to the same switch and nothing else is connected to this switch.
    Virtual Machines:
    3 Windows Server 2012 Standard - 1 DC, 1 FileServer, 1 Application Server.
    1 Windows Server 2008 Standard Exchange Server.
    All VMs are using dynamic disks (as recommended by Microsoft).
    Updates
    We have applied the most resent updates to the Hosts, VMs and iSCSI SAN about 3 weeks ago with no change in our problem and we continually update the setup.
    Normal operation:
    Normally this setup works just fine and we see no real difference in speed in startup, file copy and processing speed in LoB applications of this setup compared to a single host with two 10000 RPM Disks. Normal network speed is 10-200 Mbit, but occasionally
    we see speeds up to 400 Mbit/s of combined read/write for instance during file repair.
    Our Problem:
    Our problem is that for some reason a random VHDX gets copied to System Volume Information by "System" of the Clusterd Shared Storage (i.e. C:\ClusterStorage\Volume1\System Volume Information).
    All VMs stops responding or responds very slowly during this copy process and you can for instance not send CTRL-ALT-DEL to a VM in the Hyper-V console, or for instance start task manager when already logged in.
    This happens at random and not every day and different VHDX files from different VMs gets copied each time. Some time it happens during daytime wich causes a lot of problems, especially when a 200 GB file gets copied (which take a lot of time).
    What it is not:
    We thought that this was connected to the backup, but the backup had finished 3 hours before the last time this happended and the backup never uses any of the files in System Volume Information so it is not the backup.
    An observation:
    When this happend today I switched on ShadowCopy (previous files) and set it to only to use 320 MB of storage and then the Copy Process stopped and the virtual Machines started responding again. This could be unrelated since there is no way to see
    how much of the VHDX that is left to be copied, so it might have been finished at the same time as I enabled  ShadowCopy (previos files).
    Our question:
    Why is a VHDX copied to System Volume Information when scheduled ShadowCopy (previous version of files) is switched off? As far as I know, nothing should be copied to this folder when this functionis switched off?

    Please note:
    Please only answer our question and do not offer any general optimization tips that do not directly adress the issue! We want the problem to go away, not to finish a bit faster!

    Hallo Lawrence!
    Thankyou for youre reply, some comments to help you and others who read this thread:
    First of all, we use Windows Server 2012 and the VHDX as I wrote in the headline and in the text in my post. We have not had this problem in similar setups with Windows Server 2008 R2, so the problem seem to be introduced in Windows Server 2012.
    These posts that you refer to seem to be outdated and/or do not apply to our configuration:
    The post about Dynamic Disks:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee941151(v=WS.10).aspx is only a recommendation for Windows Server 2008 R2 and the VHD format. Dynamic VHDX is indeed recommended by Microsoft when using Windows Server 2012 (please look in the optimization guide
    for Windows Server 2012).
    Infact, if we use fixed VHDX then we would have a bigger problem since fixed VHDX are generaly larger then Dynamic Disks, i.e. more data would be copied and that would take longer time = the VMs would be unresponsive for a longer time.
    The post "What's the deal with the System Volume Information folder"
    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/oldnewthing/archive/2003/11/20/55764.aspx is for Windows XP / Windows Server 2003 and some things has changed since then. for instance In Windows Server 2012, Shadow Copies cannot be controlled by going to Control panel -> System.
    Instead you right-click on a Drive (i.e. a Volume, for instance the C drive/Volume) in Computer and then click "Configure Shadow Copies".
    Windows Server 2008 R2 Backup problem
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/windowsbackup/thread/0fc53adb-477d-425b-8c99-ad006e132336 - This post is about the Antivirus software trying to scan files used during backup that exists in the System Volume Information folder and we do not
    have any antivirus software installed on our hosts as I stated in my post.
    Comment that might help us:
    So according to “System Volume Information” definition, the operation you mentioned is Volume Shadow Copy. Check event viewer to find Volume Shadow Copy related event logs and post them.
    Why?
    Furhter investigation suggests that a volume shadow copy is somehow created even though the Schedule for Shadows Copies is turned off for all drives. This happens at random and we have not found any pattern. Yesterday this operation took almost all available
    disk space (over 200 GB), but all the disk space was released when I turned on scheduled Shadow Copies for the CSV.
    I therefore draw these conclusions:
    The CSV Volume has about 600 GB of disk space and since Volume Shadows Copy used 200 GB, or about 33% of the disk space, and the default limit is 10% then I conclude that for some reason the unscheduled Volume Shadow Copy did not have any limit (or ignored
    the limit).
    When I turned on the Schedule I also change the limit to the minimum amount which is 320 MB and this is probably what released the disk space. That is, the unscheduled Volume Shadow Copy operation was aborted and it adhered to the limit and deleted the
    Volume Shadow Copy it had taken.
    I have also set the limit for Volume Shadow Copies for all other volumes to 320 MB by using the "Configure Shadow Copies" Window that you open by right clicking on a drive (volume) in Computer and then selecting "Configure Shadow Copies...".
    It is important to note that setting a limit for Shadow Copy Storage, and disabaling the Schedule are two different things! It is possible to have unlimited storage for Shadow Copies when the Schedule is disabled, however I do not know if this was the case
    Before I enabled Shadow Copies on the CSV since I did not look for this.
    I now have defined a limit for Shadow Copy Storage to 320 MB on all drives and then no VHDX should be copied to System Volume Information since they are all larger than 320 MB.
    Does this sound about right or am I drawing the wrong conclusions?

    There is something strange about the limits on the Secondary host!
    I have not in any way changed the settings on the Secondary host and as you can see, the Secondary host has a maximum limit of only 35 MB storage on the CSV, but it also shows that this is 10% of the Volume. This is clearly not the case since 10% if 600
    GB = 60 GB!
    The question is, why does it by default set a too small limit (i.e. < 320 MB) on the CSV and is this the cause of the problem? I.e. is the limit ignored since it is smaller than the smallest amount you can provide using the GUI?
    Is the default 35 MB maximum Shadow Copy limit a bug, or is there any logical reason for setting a limit that according to the GUI is too small?

  • How to extract System/Client Info from R/3

    Hi All,
    Can somebody tell me how do we get the system/client information along with our transaction data coming from two R/3 systems during extraction? If it is possible or not?
    If yes in which R/3 table we can find that information?
    Regards,
    Pooja

    Hi Pooja,
    The Source System is very specific for each info package . So when you create a infoPackage you are aware about the source System. So add 0SOURSYSTEM in the infoSource and make it a constant value(hard code it).
    Hope you got it
    Regards
    Happy Tony
    <b>Points == Thanks</b>

  • No service for system 'system', client 'client' in Integration Directory

    Hi experts,
    I'm getting troubles while testing the first HR IDOC to SOAP scenario in the system. The IDOC in HR is a customized one but was perfectly created. It's not my first IDOC to SOAP scenario so I'm in conditions to ensure it is correctly configured. I'm getting the troubles in the connection between HR and XI and the message given by HR at SM58 transaccion is: No service for system 'system', client 'client' in Integration Directory.
    can anybody help me solve this issue?
    thanks.
