Homogeneus system copy procedure

Hi Gurus,
I have the following scenario:
ERP Netweaver 7.0 SR2(SAP_BASIS 709) Java + ABAP stack with Oracle 11.2.0.2 recently upgraded. I have to make a copy to the test system QAS.
The question is if i can use new sapinst versions, (obtaining the newers installation master and Java CDs like SR3 or EHP 2) and its procedures to make the copy.
Thanks in advance.

Your question is quite confusing. You are saying ERP Netweaver 7.0 but basis version is 709. There is no 709 version.
If your release is ERP 6.0/Netweaver 7.0 then you have to use installation master DVD of this version only. You cannot use EHP2 version DVD. And procedure of system copy is more or less same for 7.0 release or 7.02 release. You can check system copy guide on http://service.sap.com/instguides.
Thanks

Homogeneus system copy error

Hi all,
I have already functionally a SAP instance PRD ECC 6.0(ABAP only) on server with Windows Server 2008 R2 X64 and Database MSSQL 2005.
I tried to make a Homogeneus System Copy with Backup/restore method on same server but i have some errors.
I made the Backup of the MSSQL PRD Database and I saved it to another partition.
I created the QAS Datafiles on SAP DB partition and i loaded The NEW DB on MSSQL. For new Database QAS i selected SQL_LATIN1_General_CP850_BIN2 for collation option.
I launched the SAPINST procedure and I selected the Homogenes System Copy Backup/Restore option.
I selected the existing QAS DB that i already restore on MSSQL SERVER and then I pressed NEXT button.
Now I have this error:
Administrator@WIN2008SAP2: Input Error
User tables belonging to the dbo schema were found in the database QAS.
SOLUTION: You can only install an SAP system in a database with no user object belonging to the system schema dbo.
If there already is an SAP System in the database(MCOD), or you install a Java ADD-in, you might have to convert the existing system to its own schema, or contact your SAP support.
I looked on PRD System and it is a MCOD system. What shoud I do now? I did the wrong steps for HSC for MSSQL????
Any help appreciated, Thanks
M.C.

Please check which tables exist in your SAP database with schema dbo:
select name from sys.objects where schema_name(schema_id) = 'dbo' and type = 'U'
If this shows only the tables sysdiagrams and dtproperties:
This error can be caused by the existence of the table sysdiagrams.
This table is created by monitor operation at the SQL Server Management Studio.
It can be deleted without risks as described below:
   drop procedure sp_upgraddiagrams
   drop procedure sp_helpdiagrams
   drop procedure sp_helpdiagramdefinition
   drop procedure sp_creatediagram
   drop procedure sp_renamediagram
   drop procedure sp_alterdiagram
   drop procedure sp_dropdiagram
   drop function fn_diagramobjects
   drop table sysdiagrams
Regards,
Guenther
P.S.
The table will be created again automatically when a new Diagram is created in object explorer.
P.P.S.
Newer sapinst shouldn't encounter this problem anymore, the check in control.xml was changed to consider this table as 'harmless' (as it already does with dtproperties).

Homogeneus System Copy

Hello,
We use this system TRP ( production ) as source for an Homogeneus system copy to create Sandbox.
After the restore , we start up SAP as usually but when we enter to see the sap initial consistency check, the system shows the next message "OS release OS/400 V5R3 M0 820 is not supported with this kernel (46D)
We think that we have the right kernel ( EXT ) but maybe its not the one ( im not sure). Could anyone tell me what its the right kernel to solve this issue.
Thank in advance.
Daniel

Hello Daniel,
Is the kernel above level 1850 (note 68440)?
It looks like you have the right kernel 46D EXT, I would just patch it to the latest level.
Best regards,
Victor

System Copy Procedure

Hi Experts,
Here my client wants to move their system PRD to a new server that they acquired. The environment is Windows on Oracle 8.1.7 with 4.6 C.
So i would like to know that best way of moving the system to the new server.
The Homogeneous System Copy is there, but in 4.6C Version i am confusing to chose the Export option from the Kernel CD.
Previously i had done the System Copy with ECC 5.0. But in this version i am confusing.
pliz do advise me on this.
I would also be grateful if anyone can provide me with documentation on how to execute this procedure.
Waiting for your kind reply.
Regards,
Praveen Merugu

Hi Praveen,
If you only need to move a system into from one server to another with the same OS platform and DB Platform, then you can use System Copy.
if you are confused how to do this, then:
1. Install SAP instance and DB Instance in the new server, make sure the SID is the same with the old server.
2. Do offline backup of the old SAP Instance
3. restore the backup to your new server, make sure you delete all data files in the new server before you do this
4. generate the control file script in the old server
5. copy the script to your new server
6. execute the script to generate all the control file
7. Startup the database

Hi Krishna,
Hope you know how to go to installation guides in Service market place of a particular relase from the link Eg : for ERP 6 EHP 6, you need to follow the below steps
http://service.sap.com/instguides --> SAP Business Suite --> SAP ERP 6.0 --> Select EHP 6 for ERP 6.0
and you can find all the relavant documents including system copy also. Based on your system , you can select the document.

Hom System Copy ECC 5.0 HPUX from PA-RISC to Itanium

Hi gurus,
I want to replace an old PA-risc server (rp5470) with a new Itanium server (rx6600) even in HPUX operative system where is installed a central instance of NW04 Ecc 5.0.
It is possibile to procede with a simple Homogeneus System Copy, changing the kernel version (ia64 instead of parisc) and oracle executables?
There is a plain compatibility between parisc binaries (oracle datafile) and the itanium binaries?
Thanks in advance,
Marco

reading note <a href="http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1003028">1003028</a> it looks very much like you can now do a heterogenious system copy using the homogenious system copy procedure backup/restore as long you stay on Oracle.
This procedure is also very interesting concerning 9.2 to 10.2 upgrades during system copy.

Peter

Migrate SAP from DB2 9.5 to DB2 9.7 using System copy

Hello,
We are migrating our SAP systems to new hardware and we are also planning to upgrade our database from DB2 9.5 to DB2 9.7. So my question is can we take a db backup of our current SAP system which is on DB2 9.5 and install the target SAP instance directly on DB2 9.7 during the System copy?
Or do we need to install the target SAP instance on DB2 9.5 and then upgrade the system to DB2 9.7 after the System copy procedure.
Please let me know as we need to start the migration at the earliest.
Thanks
D

Hi Deepak,
Yes, that is possible (but only offline backup). But for the new features like reclaimable tablespace (to lower the high watermark)
it's better to export/import with systemcopy.
Also with systemcopy you can use index compression.
After backup and restore you can have also reclaimable tablespace, but you have to create new tablespaces
and then work with db6conv and online table move to move one tablespace online to the new one.
Best regards,
Joachim

SAP system copy error

Hi Experts,

Thanks and regards,
M. Nizam

Hi Nizamuddin,
Message text
Data on dump will not fit into current database. Need %d Mbyte database.
Explanation
This error occurs when an attempt is made to load a database dump into a database smaller than the dumped database. You cannot use dump database or load database to shrink a database, regardless of the amount of actual data in the database.
Action
If your goal is to load the database from the dump, you must increase the size of the database being loaded into to at least the configured size of the dumped database. You can do this with either the alter database command or by dropping and re-creating a larger database.
If your goal is to shrink the total size of a database, you cannot use dump and load. You must copy all the data out of the database using bcp, drop the database and re-create a smaller database, then re-create the database structure with scripts, and reload the data with bcp.
extend your current master *database* on the master *device* to a total size of 101376MB(or more) (use 'alter database' command)
alter database master on master = <size in MB>
If there isn't enough room on the master device AND the master device is either a file system device in a file system that has free space or was created on a raw partition that is actually larger than the master device was defined, then you can use the DISK RESIZE command to enlarge the master device
disk resize name = "master", size = <additional space in MB>

Error during Heterogeneous System Copy - Phase 18 Import ABAP

Hello gurus,
I´m facing an error during the Target Installation in a Heterogeneous System Copy (Migration). The system SAP is a SAP ECC 6.0 SR3 (Unicode and Abap+Java).
Source server:
Operation System: Windows 2003 Server x64
Database: SQL Server 2008 SP01
Target server:
Operation System: Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) X64
Database: Oracle DB 10.2g (10.2.0.4)
I already did the all procedures in export database and all that looks fine!
At this point I´m running the system copy procedure through SAPInst on target server (RHEL / Oracle) but in phase 18 - Import ABAP the sapinst stops... (by the way in procedure bar, I can see "Import Monitor jobs: running 0, waiting 1, completed 0, failed 18, total 19")
I checked three log files (sapinst_dev.log ; sapinst.log ; SAPSDIC.log):
SAPSDIC.log:

ECC6 EHP2 (ABAP+Java) system copy using file system copy

Hello Experts,
I have a question around system copy method for a dual stack ECC6 EHP2 system.
We are planning to take full file system backup of this entire ECC6 EHP2 dual stack system and throw it on a completely new hardware with new host name but same SID. We are also planning to do a host renaming in instance profiles and re-building the control files in target system after we finish the file system restore.
Is this method supported in SAP ? Or we strictly have to use SAPinst to do export and import method. In any case our source and target platform is not going to chance as per our scenario.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Harshal

> Thanks for the quick response. Is their any document that says it is not supported ? Because of no proper document that says no to do it, client want's to try it out.
For the ABAP part this is certainly feasible.
The Java part has not only issues with the secure store but also with SID and hostname. The old values are stored in many places in the database and in, depending on the applications installed, many .properties files in the filesystem. So it would be not enough to somehow regenerate the secure store but also change hostname and SID in different places that are not really all documented.
What you are basically looking for is
Note 757692 - Changing the hostname for J2EE Engine 6.40/7.0 installation
with the significant sentence
This note should be applied only when the hostname of a machine
where the j2ee engine was already installed has changed.
It does not replace the SAP official system copy procedure and
MUST NOT be used for copying of an instance to another host and/or with different SID.

System Copy from ABAP Stack to ABAP+Java Stack

Hi,
Is it possible to system copy (homogeneous or heterogeneous) from a system based on ABAP Stack to a system based on ABAP+Java Stack? Is it the normal system copy procedure or something aditional is required to do. Pl. advise. Thanks
regards
Edited by: Abdus Samad on Oct 24, 2008 8:13 AM

It depends on what you want to copy, a system copy will always wipe out the existing target. But if you want to only copy data, you might be able to do a client copy. You can start with this SAP note: [552711 - FAQ: Client copy|https://service.sap.com/sap/bc/bsp/spn/sapnotes/index2.htm?numm=552711]

System copy for ABAP+JAVA system using SAPINST method

Dear support,
We have recently upgraded to ECC 6.0 system and we have been still doing system copy by using backup and restore method. I know its wrong.
which involves below steps , this old methos works fine for ABAP engine and evreything looks ok.But java engine will not work.
So we need to use SAPINST method as described in note 785848 and system copy guide available on OSS. But i am really not able to understand sequence
for tasks to be carried out in this SAPINST method.
Can anybody list few sequence along with step by step procedure as i mentioned below for old system copy procedure.
Is it really difficult to make that for SAPINST as everybody says refer to standard guide and note ?
Anybody if possible can make the same way as i did below , i think it would rather be small as far as my understanding after reading those docs.
Simple old system copy procedure works for ABAP is as:
Run the following command on source system.
a. Login as <sid>adm
b. svrmgrl
c. connect internal
d. alter database backup controlfile to trace;
e. exit;
f. Above command will generate a .trc file in /oracle/P01/saptrance/usertrace directory.
g. Copy the text from CREATE CONTROLFILE until the ( and paste it in to any new .sql or controlfile.sql file.
h. Copy the controlfile.sql to target system.
i. Edit the file and replace the entire source SID to target SID.
j. Edit the reuse database command with the set database command
Copy the aft generated during the backup file from the source system to target system. (/oracle/<SID>/sapbackup)
a. Change all the source <SID> to target <SID>.
b. Only don't change the backup volume name it must be target system <SID>.
c. Copy the above aft file name line from the source back<SID>.log to target<SID>.log file.
5. Shutdown the target server instance.
6. From this onwards all the command on the target system only.
a. Login as <SID>adm
b. run the SAPDBA
c. select J (Restore/Recovery)
d. select B (Full restore and recovery)
e. select A (Select backup of type)
f. Select the offline backup which you want to restore.
g. It will take some time to restore.
h. Once the database is restored login as <SID>adm and run the
i. svrmgrl
j. connect internal;
k. startup nomount (if the database is already mounted shutdown it using the shutdown command)
l. run the following command
m. @controlfile.sql (file name of the control file contains the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement)
n. After the run the above command it should give the "Statement Processed)
o. alter database open resetlogs.
I am really looking forward to see anybody take some time out to prepare this kind of step by step procedure.
It would be of greate help for all of us for performing system copy with sapinst method.
Looking forward for your support.
Best Regards,
AjitR

Hi,
As per the guide you need to do source system Technical Preparations, in that running the export preparation is also one. You need to run this first before you start the export, if and only if export will successful if preparation is successful.
Yes you need to create the export directory to take the export copy of source system, it may be any where in your server. It should be having 6 to 8 GB free space.No need to create the export directory in target system, after export is completed in the source system you copy the export directory to the target system.
Target system
Yes you need to take the back up file system and delete all the contents of the directory.
Yes it can be considered as fresh system installation but copy of source system.
Yes the process follows after you giving the export directory path .
Next screen you will get the database drop and recreate screen chouse the drop and recreate method
Next J2EE user name and password
Next DDIC password
Next you have to give kernel and oracle client dvd path
Next Parameter checking screen here if you are selected database drop and recreate you have to revise the oracle database system option
If you are selecting review next screen is database advance option you have to select the advanced option
Next you have to select following option to recreate
1 Sapdata directory mapping
2 Database instance file system
3 Create database parameter
4 Create tablespace
Next screen sapdata directory creating
Next screen you can just click next no need to change any setting
Next table creation
Next screen specify oracle instance directories
Next again parameter checking and last this is last screen
Next will be the execution screen

System Copy in MSCS environment

Hi all!
We are in the process of upgrading our R/3 4.7x200 system to ERP2005 unicode. The upgrade and unicode conversion of Dev and Test have been successful, and now Production is next. By the way, we are not doing a combined upgrade and unicode conversion. The difference is that Prod is in a MSCS environment, while the other to are Central systems.
I have a question about how to perform a system copy procedure in a MSCS environment. As part of the Unicode conversion where I have to uninstall SAP (source and target systems are to be on the same hardware), and install it again as a system copy. I am wondering about the steps, and sequence of steps that needs to be performed in order to get the installation identical to what it is today. One node contains the Central Instance and the second node contains the database instance with MS SQL 2005. Do you have any tips for me?
I have recieved some information saying that I can perform the system copy as a Distributed environment, installing the central instance on one host, and the database on the other. My concern is that this will not fullfill the requirements for a cluster environment, where one node (node A) can failover to the other (node B) and vice versa.
Can you please advise on what the best option is and steps are?
Any input is highly appreciated!
Best Regards,
Thomas

Of course:)
What I did was basically to follow the instructions provided in the ERP 2005 installation guide, chapter 7. This refers to MSCS installation steps. I also used the System Copy guide for ERP 2005, which referred heavily to the installation guide. It wasn't as hard as it seemed to in the first place.
Good luck to anyone in the same situation, and do not hesitate to ask questions if needed.

Thomas
