Dear SAP-B1 Experts,
I have requirement to move SAP B1 (Release 2004A) from existing server into the new machine (reason: hardware upgrade/changing).
Is there any tools like System Copy in ECC or what is the best method to do that?
Best Regards,

HI
If you want to use Copy express,follow this link
Copy express
For data transfer workbench,use this link
http://www.sapvoorkmo.be/information/English/SBO%20Fact%20Sheet%20DTW.pdf
I recommend you to not use copy express for copying bulk BP and item...
Copy express is used to do copy only the configurations,you can copy the transactionc via DTW(Data Tranfer Workbench)

How to perform system copy using standard sap method (sapinst)

Hi guys
pls tel how to perform system copy using standard sap method (sapinst) and to perform enterprise portal RESTORSTION.
thanks
kamal

Hi Kamal,
I have done a system copy of the production portal to a sandpit system before. The system copy export import method works very well, and is easy. For my portal, the whole procedure took me less than 6 hours.
1. Go to this page: System Copy and Migration
2. See the videos "Demo: How to Perform a System Copy Export" and "Demo: How to Perform a System Copy Import".
This should give you the basic idea.
I did a systemcopy using sapinst. If I remember right, this is the steps I performed:
1. On target host, Installed a new Central services.
2. On source host: Ran sapinst system copy export for Central Instance and Database instance. This created two export files (depending on your database size).
3. Used the export files created in previous step to run the import step in target host.
4. Some post processing steps, like configuring sso, creating systems in system landscapes, configuring WD JCos etc.
Let me know if you need more help.
Cheers
Rishi

System copy from SAP R/3 47x110 with Oracle 10.2 to Oracle 11.2

Hello,
I want to do a system copy from SAP R/3 4.7 Enterprise 47x110 with Oracle 10.2 to a new machine with same SAP version but with oracle 11.2. (After this I will upgrade to ERP 6.0)
I will do this with export/import but I don't find any documentation (manuals or notes).
I only find this:
Note 1499877 - Oracle 11.2 for R/3 Enterprise 4.7 Ext. Set 1.10
but this note is only for a new installation, I don't know if this work with system copy
Note 516246 - INST- System Copy for SAP Systems based on SAP Web AS 6.20
This don't have information about oracle 11.2
I read the manual "Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP® Systems Based on SAP Web Application Server 6.20" but this also don't say nothing about oracle 11.2
Can you help me? Where can I find this documentation and what DVDs (master and kernel) should I use?
Best regards

Hi Juan,
Thanks for your answer.
That is my doubt, what installation master shoud I use for export oracle 10.2 and import in oracle 11.2?
Note "1499877 - Oracle 11.2 for R/3 Enterprise 4.7 Ext. Set 1.10" say that I can use installation master of R/3 4.7 Set 2 (47x200) to install a new system.
I found this media:
51033746_9 Installation Master 6.20/6.40 Linux on x86_64 64bit
and
51040087_7 NW 04 SR1 Inst. Mst. Linux x86_64 64bit f. Oracle 10.2/11.2
I think this is the note that I need:
Note 1478351 - Oracle 11g Support on UNIX: 6.40-Based SAP Systems

Logical system names after system copy for SAP ECC 6.0

Hi!
We successfully installed SAP ECC 6.0 system as system copy.
All the logical system names of old system have been copied to new system.
Question
What is the approach to change the logical system names for new SAP system?
a) just via tcode SCC4
b) via BDLS
c) other tcodes, reports
Thank you very much!

I think you can do it through BDLS

BI System copy: 2 SAP BW system should be connect to same R/3 system

Hi!
We have copy one SAP BW system SR1 to another SAP BW system SR2.
SR1 was connected to SAP R/3 system R31.
As consequence the new SAP BW system SR2 has also in RSA1 --> source system the entry of SAP R/3 system R31.
We would like to restore the source connection in new SAP BW system SR2.
By doing so a pop up comes up with decision to delete an existing connection R31<CLNT>XXX or not to delete this connection to the first BW System SR1.
Question:
Can 2 BW systems (SR1, SR2) be connected to the same SAP R/3 system (R31) and what should we do in this casee with pop up (delete or not delete the existing connection to the source BW System SR1)?
Any helpful information will be very appreciated!

HI
> Can 2 BW systems (SR1, SR2) be connected to the same SAP R/3 system (R31)
Why not? One R/3 system can be connected to many BI/BW system.
> what should we do in this casee with pop up (delete or not delete the existing connection to the source BW System SR1)?
This pop up is coming because you created your SR2 system as a copy of SR1 system. If you have access to your R/3 system, you can check in table RSBASIDOC there will be only one entry R31CLNTXXX --- SR1CLNTXXX which is creating problem
What you can do is to run one FM RSAP_BIW_DOSCONNECT ( in the new system) and delete the entry for R31CLNTXXX and SR1CLNTXXX. Then also delete some correspondign entries from EDP13, EDPP1 and EDP21. Then in the new system , from RSA1 create new connection. I Before creating the new source system connection, in your new BI system you can delete the RFC connection for the R/3 system from SM59. During creation of new connection this RFC will be generated once again automatically. should work fine.
Remember, DO NOT delete connection from RSA1 which in turn will delete all the dataSources.
Please also follow SAP Note 886102 - System Landscape Copy for SAP BW and NW BI carefully before doing ANYTHING with RSBASIDOC.

System Copy for SAP Netweaver 2004 ABAP and Java

Dear Friends,
We are planning to do System copy for CRM 4.0 (ABAP+Java) from PROD to Quality.
Production has following
Production
CRP (ABAP+JAVA, Oracle 10g)
CR1 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
CR2 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
Test
CRT (ABAP+JAVA, Oracel 10g)
CR1 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
As per my understanding perfrom System Copy in two methods
1. Using Offline backup of CRP from the Split Mirror backup.
2. Export of the CRP from the Split Mirror backup.

If you have Split Mirror available you could definitely use it. Redirected restore or export/import are the alternatives.You could also use file copy (system offline is preferred).

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>

Post installation steps after SAP BW system copy

Hi!
I am about to do post processsing steps after system copy of SAP BW system.
1) One of the steps is to delete all entries from tables DBSTATHORA, DBSTAIHORA, DBSTATIORA,
DBSTATTORA.
Question: what is the way to do this?
2) During the installation I received the error within import ABAP step.
(IMP) INFO: import of D010TAB completed (4477754 rows) #20090505133631

from D010TAB~ 0 C err to D010TAB~0 C ign and
from D010TAB1 C err to D010TAB1 C ign
Question:
how to create index manually after system copy?

Simply run
TRUNCATE TABLE <table_name>;
for each of those tables.
Make sure to either logon as SAP<SID> or provide the owner of the tables with the statement.

The problem here was the large INITIAL size clause.
If there is enough freespace at all in the tablespace this should work:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "D010TAB~0" ON "D010TAB" ( "MASTER", "TABNAME" ) TABLESPACE PSAPSR3700 NOLOGGING COMPUTE STATISTICS PARALLEL;
If I'm not wrong, the second index is just vice versa:
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX "D010TAB~1" ON "D010TAB" ( "TABNAME", "MASTER" ) TABLESPACE PSAPSR3700 NOLOGGING COMPUTE STATISTICS PARALLEL;
In general it is really not a good idea to skip the creation of unique indexes...

Lars

How to rename global_name to NEW_DBSID after System Copy

Hello,
I changed SID D22 to S11 during system copy.The System Copy guide recommends to rename global_name on Oracle.
I have some questions.
1) Is the following procedure correct?
SQL>alter database rename global_name to S11;
2) If I do not rename global_name, what happens?
I refer to the guide "Homogeneous and Heterogeneous
System Copy for SAP Systems Based
on SAP Web Application Server
ABAP 6.40 SR1".
6.2 Performing Follow-On Actions in the
Target System
Oracle: If you changed the <DBSID> during the system copy, it is recommended to adapt the global_name parameter with the following SQL command:
alter database rename global_name to <NEW_DBSID>;
If the parameter is not existing on your system, ignore this step.
thanks,
Keishi

Hello Keishi,
just for information.. the official oracle documentation about that topic:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231/ds_admin.htm
> 1) Is the following procedure correct?
Here is a test in my MDD test database:
SQL> SELECT * FROM GLOBAL_NAME;
GLOBAL_NAME
MDD.WORLD
SQL> ALTER DATABASE RENAME GLOBAL_NAME TO MDD2.WORLD;
Database altered.
SQL> SELECT * FROM GLOBAL_NAME;
GLOBAL_NAME
MDD2.WORLD
SQL> ALTER DATABASE RENAME GLOBAL_NAME TO MDD.WORLD;
Database altered.
SQL> SELECT * FROM GLOBAL_NAME;
GLOBAL_NAME
MDD.WORLD
> 2) If I do not rename global_name, what happens?
If you use a distributed database system, you need to identify each database by a unique identifier (the global name).
For more information, take a look at the oracle documentation:

System copy tools for SAP Basis 46C.

Hi All,
I need to do system copy for SAP Basis 46c. I have a query regarding the tools used for system copy. It is written in the SAP Documents and we need to use the latest version of the system copy tools (i.e. R3load,R3check,R3ldctl,,R3szchk,R3trans).
I need to do the Heterogeneouse system copy
Source :- Oracle 9.2.0.8 , AIX 5.3
Target :- Oralce 9.2.0.8 (Or 10.2.0.4 if possible) , Sun Solaris
So my question is
1) Am i suppose to use only the tools (i.e. R3load,R3check,R3ldctl,,R3szchk,R3trans) which are compatible to relase 4.6C (Kernel 46D_EXT, latest path level is 2541) or
2) Can i download and use the Latest version of system copy tools (i.e. Withe release 7.00 for R3load,R3check,R3ldctl,,R3szchk,R3trans) to do the herogeneous system copy of SAP Basis 4.6C ??
Please reply.
Thanks

> Yes we are aware about the certified consultant. But before going for such a big project we wanted to find out the possibilities how we can minimise system downtime and optimize the process therefore wanted to have some information earlier.
Exactly that is the use of that consultant Those are experienced people who have done lots of migrations in the past, they know the possibilities of the tools and versions.
> So now i am very sure that we can use 10.2 while installation of new target system while doing heterogenouse system copy from oracle 9.2.
Correct.
> 1) Migration Monitor (source :-System copy & Migration optimization.pdf)
> The Migration Monitor is downward-compatible. As new features and bug fixes are only implemented in the latest version, SAP urgently recommends that you always use the latest version available.
You can use it of course but support of it is not "built in" - there's no clicker to check as is in newer versions of sapinst. You will need to modify the R3S file at the "correct place" to make use of it.
> 2) Distribution Monitor (Source :- Distribution Monitor (version 1.9.1) Usersu2019 Guide)
> Restrictions:-The following restrictions apply to the current implementation:The DM does not support system copies of releases lower than SAP_BASIS 6.20
So you can't use that option.
> 3) PACKAGE SPLITTING (source :-System copy & Migration optimization.pdf)
> The package splitting option is available and integrated into the system copy tools R3SETUP and SAPinst since SAP R/3 4.0B SR1.
The "old version" is a perl script, you'll need to make sure you have perl installed.
>
> 4) TABLE SPLITTING (source :-System copy & Migration optimization.pdf)
> AVAILABILITY:
> Table splitting can be used for ABAP systems with SAP kernel 6.40 or above
So that is also not usable.
> 6) R3LOAD OPTIONS - (source :-System copy & Migration optimization.pdf)
> R3load option '-fast' (<= 4.6D) or '-loadprocedure fast': These options are available
> u2022 from SAP kernel release 6.40 for - DB2/UDB - MSSQL - Oracle (see SAP Note 1045847 - Oracle Direct Path Load Support in R3load)
So it's also not built in for Kernel 46D_EX2.
> Request your final comments on the above points and Need to know whether parallel import and export can be done for 4.6C (46D_EXT Kernel) release using migration monitor. Please reply.
As I said before and as is written in the documentation, it can be used but not "by default", you'll make sure you stop at the right place with your migration to configure it manually (or the consultant will do).
