Copy VMWare image of Java only system

Hello,
We are running an SAP Java only System (NW 7.0) with a MSSQL 2000 DB on Windows running VMWare. We are trying to create a clone of that server to create another JAVA only SAP system.
We have changed the Computer Name in MSSQL and that is up and running. We have also changed the instance profile paramters to point to the new Server name.
Couple questions:
1) Is this possible to do with a JAVA only system?
2) The JControl process keeps failing. I've changed the instance.properties file to point to the new server host and when I start the system it keeps pointing back at the old one. Is this file defined somewhere else?
Has anyone done this before or tried it? If you have, can you provide any tips or tricks on how to accomplish this.
Thanks,
Dale Dingmann

For copyng systems, you need to use systemcopy procedure,
is fully supported : --> System Copy and Migration
P.S. in your situation i'm think good to read -->

Table in PI JAVA only system & Report development in JAVA only system

Dear Experts ,
We are migrating from Dual to Single stack JAVA only PI system.
In Dual stack system all the message data are stored in ABAP table from which MONI pulls data .
But in JAVA only system how data is stored ..? and how to access those table ..?
we need a report to develop which will have these data .
Interface name
Date & time of run
Key Data (if possible would like to see key data from the run, for example po number, material number, part number, idoc number would all be considered key data)
Pass/Fail flag
Error Message (only required if the run failed)
How & where to write code to develop this report ...?
thanks

Running SLD on Java-only system

Can I use a Java-only system for my SLD server when I have ABAP-only servers in my environment. The ABAP-only servers would be sending their information to this Java-only SLD

To setup a gateway service on a Java-only machine do the following:
1.
Edit the profile START_SCS00_##### adding the following two lines
_GW = /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run/gwrd $(FT_EXE)
Start_Program_05 = local $(_GW) pf=/sapmnt/profile/<SID>_JC00_#####
2.    Edit the file DEFAULT.PFL adding this line
a.    rdisp/sna_gw_service = sapgw00
1.    Edit the file /usr/sap/<SID>/exe/scs.lst adding two lines
i.    gwmon
ii.    gwrd
3.    Restart JAVA on the server
4.    You can check the status of the gateway using the command:
a.    gwmon   pf=/sapmnt/profile/<SID>_JC00_#####

Change timezone in Java-only system

Does anyone know how to change the timezone on a Java-only system?
I have already added the setting "-Duser.timezone=America/Dallas" on the configtool, but when I look at the logs in NWA, it still looks like it is reporting on GMT timezone.
Thanks!

EWA for Java only systems

Hi,
I'm searching for a guide to set up EWAs for Java only instances. Currently I have my Java instances in SMSY as system components, but how do I set up the EWAs as only ABAP instances are selectable. I'm using the latest SP, so this functionality should be available finally. I can't find a document about that anywhere, just some very bad documented snippets in SPRO...
Regards,
Pascal

Hi Pascal,
EWA for Java systems is currently in a pilot phase. It will be released with the note 976054, which is currently still being processed internally.
Note 976054 contains a setup instruction for EWA for non-ABAP-components.
Technically, for pure Java systems the "Central SDCCN" of the Solution Manager is used as indeed pure Java systems do not have a SDCCN.
Double stack installations do not make use of the Central SDCCN, using their local SDCCN to obtain the non-ABAP data that is collected by the Diagnostics part of the Solution Manager.
The note will be released in the very near future.
Best regards,
Walter Heibey

Can Java only system use CTS+?

We have 3 Java only (EP7.0) systems.
We also have a SM7.0(A+J).
Can we configure CTS+ for the EP7.0 using SM7.0 as the domain controller?
Thanks a lot!

Hi Jennifer,
YES it's possilbe. The very basic rational for CTS+ is to support Java based transports.
Please refer to this SDN post for How...to setup CTS+ for your portal
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/b0ebf83b-6201-2b10-b58b-c14d3d3b6f61?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
I hope this helps you.

DB copy from non-clustered JAVA only to MSCS clustered JAVA only?

Hi!
We have 2 EP7.0 based on SQL server ready for DB copy.
The source EP7.0 is non-clustered
The target EP7.0 is MSCS clustered.
The guide called "System Copy for SAP Systems Based on NW 7.0 SR2 Java"
does not have any coverage on this scenario.
Could you direct me to some related documents?
Thanks a lot!

Thanks!
However I want to give more details.
I have done DB copy between non-clustered systems many times. For example I just
finished 2 recently. The procedure is
1) export CI from the source
2) export SQL server DB from the source
3) restore the DB onto the target
4) import the CI into the target.
Now the challenge is the source is a non-clustered EP, the target is an MSCS clustered
EP. Both are running with the same SID.
My question is :
Do I need to do 1) and 4) in the current scenario? i.e. Do I need to do CI export /import?
If YES, becuase the source is a central system, I have to choose "DB and CI export".
But because the target is a clustered (distributed?) one, the import will match?
Thanks!

Is Volume Shaw Copy useful for a WRITE only System ?

Hi,
We are considering setting up Volume Shadow Copy for a Windows Volume that contains Records Management System documents.
More than 99% time, we only WRITE to that volume. Only a few will be retrived and re-written (with later version of RM). We
We guess adding new records will fill up the VSS soon and wonder whether it is a good idea to turn on VSS on that Disk Volume ?
Thanks

Hi,
Correctly performing backup and restore operations requires close coordination between the backup applications, the line-of-business applications that are being backed up, and the storage management hardware and software. The Volume Shadow Copy Service
(VSS), which was introduced in Windows Server® 2003, facilitates the conversation between these components to allow them to work better together. When all the components support VSS, you can use them to back up your application data without taking the applications
offline.
So I recommend you to enable Volume Shaw Copy Service, the shadow copy is not created every time a file is changed, you can configure a schedule to created it automatically once per day, or manually when triggered by the backup utility or installer applications
which create a restore point.
For more detailed information, please refer to the articles below:
Volume Shadow Copy Service

Rohit,I followed that user guide with out missing a single point!.But still I am unable to pull my report..
Tried manually with xml file(generated for EP from SM) and given it in DSM but it is saying no data available.
Seems nothing is coming from my EP.

How to create a support message in a JAVA only system?

PLease help, thanks!

Hi Jennifer,
Work Center are the new interface within SAP Solution Manager shipped as of Stack 15.
They are developped with WebDynpro, which allows an easy Web integration.
http(s)://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ags_work_incident_man
http(s)://<host>:<port>/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/ags_workcenter
Work Center Incident Management would handle
- Create Message
- Follow-up on created message (reply, confirm, add texts, add attachments)
for the end user, who created the incident.
Due to the Web Access, granting authorizations is quite easy and the user can not perform unexpected tasks.
Usage requires ideally a name user in SolMan system for Logon and a Business Partner.
See also these threads to setup and adapt Work Centers:
[Setup Work Center|Re: SOLMAN SP 15 - NOT ASSIGNED TO WORKCENTER]
[Adopt Work Center|Re: Incident Management Work Center Customizing]
(By the way, current SolMan release is 7.0, as 4.0 was renamed)

System copy - NW2004s BI - ABAP & JAVA

Hi
We plan to create a new NW2004s (SRII) BI ABAP & JAVA system through a system copy. As this is java & abap it would seem using the sapinst method using the install CD would be best. I am looking for documentation for this method and I wondered if anyone else had tried this task.
Thanks in advance.
Matthew Milne

Hi,
there is a documentation under Installation Guides - Installation - System Copy for SAP Systems Based on NW 7.0 SR2 ABAP+JAVA.
We only did the copy for 640 and Java only.
Hope this helps.

NW04S Java - Distributed System. DB Instance migration to new hardware.

Hi, I have a distributed NW04S Java only system. CI and CSC on Host A and DB on host B.
1.We want to move the DB instance from Host B to Host C. We will move the database from B to C using Oracle methods. What are the steps that need to be done on the CI/SCS instances/Host A to make the application connect to the DB on host C instead of B.
2. The new DB host is actually a node of 2 node MSCS setup. How can we enable clustering for the DB instance alone and still make the CI?SCS connect to the clustered DB?
For unavoidable reasons we do not want to follow the sapinst/jload system copy method.
Any directions, higly appreciated.
Thanks-Gopalan

Hi, I ve managed to get this working.
3 simple steps
1. Change db host entries in the Default profile
2. Change tnsnames.ora to new DB host in usr..\profile\oracle\ in the App Host.
3. Change host name in secure store on app server using config tool.
Thanks

XI on java only

Hi,
Can we install XI on java only system?
Thanks and Regards.

Hi,
No, it is not possible.
You need both ABAP and JAVA stack.As different stakc of XI handle different functionality.
J2EE stakc containd the J2ee adapters while ABAP stack has the Integration Server with BPE, Integration ENgine. etc.
Take a look at the XI architetcure Overview ,
