DB Export in Source system

Hello All,
We are in process to setup a new system in our landscape. Which option is better to prefer?
Backup / restore or Export / import
If we prefer Export / Import do we need downtime? As our DB size is 300GB how much time is estimated approximatly for export. The environment is windows with Oracle.
Please suggest
Regards,
Anand

Hello,
Thanks again for your replies
Its ABAP only system. My concern is if i prefer the oracle backup / restore method will the schema owner will get changed to the target <SID>. When i did a backup / restore in R/3 4.7 system I was not able to change the schema. But this will be in ECC 6 system. Should i have to consider anything in particular for this methos? I mean the schema or notes in source & target system?
I presumed that DB Export / import will be easy to complete the entire process. Also this could minimize the administrative activities. Any second thoughts on this?
Please suggest

Anand

System Copy Guide: Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst.

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to do Unicode conversion of ERP 2005 SR3 on Oracle/WS2003
The preparation steps are OK
When I execute the last Phase using Sapinst : "database instance export",
it finishes within one minute with the message "Database instance export has been completed succesfully"
but without exporting data.
I have follow up Unicode Conversion Guide and System Copy Guide System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 ABAP+Java.
What could be wrong here?
Thansk for your help
Martial

So you need to set an environment variable
SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME = <your-virtual-hostname>
for the user executing sapinst.

BW Myself source system in ECC 5.0 while Export DataSource!!

Hello BW Experts,
When we do Export DataSource for a DataMart eg:ODS, we have to again select our Myself BW source system and replicate our datasource to see it visible in the infosource tree with our DataMart name starting with 8*.
Plz clarify these Qs:
1. Can we perform "Generate Export dataSource " for customer generated DataMarts and replicate them in Myself BW source (Other than Business Content DataMarts??)??
2. Which is the Myself BW system in the ECC 5.0 version as everything is integrated and used being the source system as T90CLNT800 with the client 800and with a single userID and password.
Note:I could not find my generated Datasource for my customer generated DataMart to replicate the same using T90CLNT800 context menu.
Plz throw some light on this!!
regards,
Sapster...Points will be awarded.

Hi,
You dont need to replicate the datasource after the generate export datasource. You can find your 8* datamart in the infosource by using any of these 2 methods:
1. Goto the top most of the info-source i.e. "Infosources" -> right click -> Insert lost nodes. You should be able to find your datamart.
2. Goto settings (menu) -> Display generated objects -> show generated objects.
Hope this helps.

Exporting and Importing Portal users from Source system to Target system

Hi All,
I have exported all portal users from source portal in to file Users.txt do i need to convert this file in to some other format so that i can import these users in Target portal.
any links documents
Regards,
Murali

Hi,
If you look in to User.txt
I have role also i have deleted role in User.txt uploded file with rest of the otherdata including group it it able to create users.
so in Nut shell let's say
1. UID-Murali
Role- Manager
Group- HRGroup
user existing in DEV and i want to trnasfer data to PRD
Role:Manger should exist in PRD, and group is not mandatory optional
but the link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/ae/7cdf3dffadd95ee10000000a114084/frameset.htm
says while uploading users role is optional it throws waring but i got error.
i am bit confused.
Now let's sau there are 10 users, 10 roles and 2 groups in source system if i want to export all users,roles,groups to target system what sequnce i have to follow without getting any error , warining is there any restriction on number of users, roles, groups i know file size should be less than 1MB.
Points are on the way.

TDMS Shell - DB Export from source/sender system taking a VERY long time

We're trying to build a TDMS Receiver system using the TDMS Shell technique. We've run into a situation wherein the initial DB Export from source/sender system is taking a VERY long time.
We are on ECC 6.0, running on AIX 6.1 and DB UDB v9.7. We're executing the DB export from sapinst, per instructions. Our DB export parallelizes, then the parallel processes one by one whittle away to just one remaining, and there we find out that the export is at that point single-threaded, and exporting table BSIS.
BSIS is an FI transactional data table. We're wondering why is the DB export trying to get BSIS and its contents out??? Isn't the DB export in TDMS Shell technique only supposed to get SAP essential only config and master data, and NOT transactional data?
Our BSIS table is nearly 700 GB in size by itself. That export has been running for nearly a week now, with no end in site.
What are we doing wrong? We suspect we may have missed something, but really don't think we do. We also suspect that the EXCLUSION table in the TDMS Shell technique may be the KEY to this whole thing. It's supposed to automatically exclude very large tables, but in this case, it most certainly missed out in excluding BSIS for some reason.
Anyway, we're probably going to fire up an OSS Message with SAP Support to help us address this perplexing issue. Just thought we'd throw it out there to the board to see if anyone else somewhere has run into similar circumstances and challenges. In the meantime, any feedback and/or advice would be dearly appreciated. Cheers,

Hello
Dont be bothered by the other TPL file DDLDB6_LRG.TPL, we are only concerned with DDLDB6.TPl.
Answer following questions to help me analyze the situation -
1) What is the current size of export dump
2) Since when is the exports running
3) What is the size of the source DB? Do you have huge amount of custom developments?
4) Did you try to use table splitting?
5) Do you doubt that there may be other transaction tables (like BSIS) which have been exported completely?
6) Did you update the SAP Kernel of your source system to latest version before starting the Shell package?
7) Were the DB statistics update during the shell or were they already updated before starting Shell?
8) Is your system a distributed system i.e. Central instance and Database instance are on different application servers?

Unable to generate "Export data source" for Master data infoobject

Hi Gurus,
I'm in BW 3.5
I need to generate "Export data source" for a master data info object.
I followed below steps:
I ticked the checkbox "Characterist. is export data source" in the master data Info object maintenance screen.
In the Infosource area, for the desired Infoobject --> Right click --> Generate export datasource --> a dialog box displays saying "The generation of DataSource was successful"
Problem:
Even after refreshing, etc.. I couldn't find the generated datasource 8**** for the above master data. I also tried to replicate the datasource from the myself source system, but couldn't find it even there. I don't know where the generated export data source is hiding ???
Could anyone please help ????
Thanks,
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
I guess that after creating an export datasource for infoobject this DS should appear in the RSA1-Source systems - MYSELF - datasource overview (with name starting with 8). Since it's a datamart, it should appear also as system generated infosource. And in this case you would be able to assign in URs of data target the appropriate infosource (make sure that in Infoproviders tab of RSA1 you have inserted your infoobject as a data target).
However, there are some bugs related to export data source. CHeck if you see you export data source in RSA6.
If you don't see it - consider applying OSS Note #816892 - "30BSP26: Export DS for master data is not generated".
Note #876845 - "30BSP29: InfoObject change: Export DataSource not adjusted" is also may be useful.

Transformation issue while connecting multiple source system of same type..

Hi,
I'm working on APO-BW integration project. I want to connect BW QA & BW PROD to APO QA. I've already connected BW QA to APO QA & it is fetching data correctly. RFC part & other BASIS part is already taken care of. I've done export datasource (for mater data, cube etc) in BW PROD & replicated in APO QA. All BW PROD datasources are imported as RSDS (7.X) in APO QA.
Now my question is how to make sure the transformations will take source system as BW PROD too? I want 2 datasources (one from BW QA & other from BW PROD) to connect to same inforprovider in APO. I've transported 7.x datsource from APO DEV to APO QA environment along with transformations. In conversion of logical system names in APO QA I've given source system -BW DEV & target system - BW QA. So the transformation automatically takes data source as BW QA. It doesn't take source-system - BW DEV & target system - BW PROD as it conflicts previous setting.
Is only option that I need to manually maintain transformation from BW PROD datasource or there's another better alternative?

HI,
You are getting multiple IDOCs into BPM. But output you are getting one message right? IF so, your N:1 Mapping is not done correctly.
i.e your target message type should have occurence of 1..n and also the interface mapping. Closely obsever the N:1 mapping done in the BpmPatternCollectMerge.
Also go to SXMB_MONI->PE and check the Technical Details to make sure that, you are getting multiple IDOCs and you are executing the N:1 Transformation step correctly.
Also in the N:1 Mapping, check out the context you used. Make it root . Then test the mapping independently in the Integration Repository.
Hope it helps,

Data load issue with export data source - BW 3.5

Hi,
We are facing issues in loading data with the help of export data source.
We have created export data source of 0PCA_C01 cube. With the help of this export datasource, we are loading data to other custom cube. Scenario is working fine in development server.
But when we transported objects to quality server data is not getting loaded to custom target cube.
It is extracting zero records. All transports are ok and we have generated export datasource in quality before transports .Also regenerated export datasource after transport and activated infosource, update rule via RS* programs. Every object is active but data is not getting extracted.
RSA3 for 80PCA_C01 datasource isn't extracting any record in Quality. Records getting extracted in development. We are in BW 3.5 with patch level 19.
Please guide us to resolve the issue.
Thanks,
Aditya

Hi
Make sure that you have relevant Role & Authorization at Quality/PRS.
You have to Transport the Source Cube first and then Create a Generate Export Data Source in QAS. Then, replicate data sources for BW QAS Soruce System. Make sure this replicated Data Source in QAS. Only then can transport new update rules for second cube.
Hope it helps and clear

FM CRM_PRIDOC_READ_OW works in source system but not when executed from BW

Hello All,
I have extended an extractor in the source system by adding additional fields.
One of the FM I've used is CRM_PRIDOC_READ_OW. When I run an extraction test in the source system eveything works and data does populates into the new fields.But when I run the infopackage from the BW side, I get an error message which saids the transaction has been terminated. I've been able to trace and pinpoint the possible cause of the error. When I do not call this FM, the infopackage finishes but I do not get data for the new fields and when I do call this FM, I get the error.
Has anyone experiance this issue before?
Your assistance will be much appreciated. Here is a portion of the code I wrote:
loop at I_TABLE into l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_I.
    lv_guid = l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_I-GUID.
    lv_item_guid = l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_I-ITEM_GUID.
    call function 'CRM_PRIDOC_READ_OW'
      exporting
      iv_header_guid = lv_guid
      importing
      ES_PRIDOC = ls_pridoc.
    loop at ls_pridoc-PRIC_COND into ls_pric_cond.
      if ls_pric_cond-kposn = lv_item_guid.
        case ls_pric_cond-STUNR.
          when '40'.

            l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_I-zzfy_gpd_i = ls_pric_cond-kwert.
        endcase.
      endif.
    endloop.
    append l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_I to l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_Itab.
    clear l_s_ZASCRM_OPPT_I.
endloop

Hello Geo!
Thank you for your question. I think we mapped all the systems you show. Always the same error. Concerning your systems my transport log would say:
Source system R3DEV does not exist
We mapped this.
Any ideas? Is there maybe something in customizing to do what could be forgetten? The system is newly connected and there have never been a transport compounded to this source system before.
Best regards,
Peter

Yes, you would need to check with BASIS team how they have created an alternate source system (for debugging) & prepare a RFC b/n these systems. Can you just check the settings in the source system and BI source system...and check the source system for the same BI system. Right click > Check and then do a restore or take the help of basis to fix it. What I think is a possible solution is : RSA1 > Source system > Search System > Right Click > Activate

Error While Transporting export Data Source

Hi Experts,
We have a requirement to transport a data source from development to quality system through acceptance box.
We need to transport an export data source which contains 40 fields. But when I captured the data source in development system and transported the same to acceptance box it's displaying only 38 fields. 2 Fields are missing from the data source which are present in development system and also source system of export data source.
Please suggest how to get these 2 fields in acceptance box.
Thanks,
Sachin Motgi

Hi,
Check if your data source extract structure is having all 40 fields.
Save and generate the data source again, replicate and then transport.
I hope it will help.
Thanks,

RFC connection to source system is damaged , no Metadata uploaded

Hello Friends,
I need your help to understand and rectify why my transport is failing again and again.

Hello All,
*Question -1*
I have checked the connections and typed the steps below - what i have seen in the screen.
Steps :
R/3 Connection - I have double clicked on the BT1CLNTXXX and tested the connections.
Connection Type :
Logon - 0KB , 10 KB , 20KB, 30 KB
R/3 connection:
5 msec, 0msec, 1msec,1msec,1msec
Please let me know whether RFC connection is OK or not.
Question - 2
I want to know is there is any option to check before transporting the TR from Developement to Quality - "Preview Check " the sequence , so that we can avoid the Transport failure because of TR sequence.

Creation of the export data source failed

trying to activate ods but getting this message that the creation of the export data source failed.
and it also gives message that RFC Connection to source system is damaged===> no metadata upload
Please can someone help me with this.
Thanks in advance.
Michelle

Hi,
Check ur source system connection. by going to RSA1-> Source System-> right click and then select check.
U will get the info about the source system Connection. IF RFC has failed then better be in touch with ur basis.
Or try restoring ur source system connection by
Source system-> Restore.
Its sets all the default conenctions b/n ur systems.
Once again check the connection now. if it says ok.. then try do the export data source and then assign the data source to info source and then maintain the Update rules..
Hope this helps-

Problem with delta update on customised export data source.

Hi all BW gurus,
I have created several customised export data sources in the R/3 system. And I have made use of the utility program <Z_CHANGE_DELTA_PROCESS> to update the ROOSOURCE table.
While this can result in being able to do initial update (instead of full update), the subsuquent delta update is not working.
In RSA7, the datasource is with green light and in RSA3, the extractor can extractor data out of it.
Does anybody have some idea on this?
I heard that there is a way to change the Business Transaction Event (BTE), but I don't quite understand how this is performed. And wonder if this is the only way out. To me, the triggering point would be the same, meaning the InfoPackage would be executed, then call the extractors in R/3 to extract the delta update in order to load into the InfoCube.
And how do others do for executing delta update of the customised data source?
Thanks a lot!!
The utility program of <Z_CHANGE_DELTA_PROCESS>:
=================================================
report z_change_delta_process .
*P_DATAS DataSource
*P_DELTAP Delta Process for DataSource
parameters:
p_datas type roosource-oltpsource,
p_deltap type roosource-delta.
tables:
roosource.
data:
ls_roosource type roosource.
if p_datas(2) ne 'Z_'.
   message 'The DataSource needs to begin with ''Z_''.' type 'E'.
endif.
select single * from roosource into ls_roosource
       where oltpsource = p_datas
       and objvers = 'A'.
if sy-subrc eq 0.
   ls_roosource-delta = p_deltap.
   update roosource from ls_roosource.
message 'The DataSource has been updated successfully.' type 'I'.
else.
   message 'The DataSource entered is not valid, try again.' type 'E'.
endif.

Doesn't anyone have any idea on this topic?
Appreciate for all the help. Thanks.
