Migrating Systems

This may be the wrong place to post this and I apologize in advance if this is the case.
We are currently getting ready to migrate from Crystal Reports XI R2 to Crystal Reports 2008 and from Business Objects XI R2 to Business Objects XI 3.1 R3, looking for some GOOD documentation on doing this, trying to come up with a business case and need to know system requirements and such, there are SOOOOOO many documents that I am not 100% sure which would be the best to use, any help would be appreciated.

SAP Suggest to use backup/restore or R3load .
Yes - because that´s the most uncomplicated way.
if I want to create a trace file manually and shut down database,sap .
copy over data files /origfile/logs from os level to target system and recover the system and install sap.
There´s no issue with that if you know what you´re doing
If you don't use sap mentioned procedure in that case SAP does not provide any support .
If you have a problem with that copy procedure itself you will be on you own. if the target system is running already you will still get support of course because nobody asks you later, how you did the copy.

Migrating SYSTEM tablespace from DMTS to LMTS in Oracle 9.2.0.7

Migrating SYSTEM tablespace from DMTS to LMTS in Oracle 9.2.0.7 using
brspace -f dbcreate
SAP version: 4.6C
Oracle: 9.2.0.7
OS: AIX 5.3
BRTools: 6.40(42)    /** 6.40(10) or (12) will be sufficient according to SAP ***/
IMPORTANT ***************************************
MUST DO:
1. Create a Full Backup of your system
2. Test your Restore and recovery of your backup.
3. Have a copy of all your tablespaces names on hand
4. Know your SYS and SYSTEM passwords
5. Run CheckDB in DB13 to ensure it is completed successfully with no warnings. This reduce the chance of hitting errors in the process
6. Ensure your UNDO tablespace is big enough
7. OSS 400241 Problems with ops$ or sapr3 connect to Oracle
NOTE: OSS 706625(Read this note)
The migration from a dictionary-managed SYSTEM tablespace to a locally-managed tablespace using the PL/SQL procedure DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.TABLESPACE_MIGRATE_TO_LOCAL is not supported in the SAP environment.
In UNIX, logon as ora<sid>
run command: brspace -f dbcreate
This command will triggers a Menu. The are seven(7) steps to complete the whole process. Do them in sequence, from step 1 to step 7 faithfully. In Step 1, ensure that your settings of PSAPTEMP, PSAPUNDO etc details such as filenames are correct. The rest I leave it as default and they are fine. Do not change redo log group from 8 to 4 even if you only have 4 redo groups. If not, you might need to restore the system! If the seven steps are complete without errors(warnings is acceptable), congrats. Perform a backup again.
Problems I encountered that caused me to restore system:
1./ Problem: I changed the redo group from 8 to 4 and in the later stage after the tablespaces and files are dropped, the system prompted me that 4 is not acceptable! I can't go back then so a restore is performed.
Solution: Leave the default value 8 as it is
2./ I was using wireless network and the network breaks thus process breaks.
Solution: This process in user-interactive and requires you to input confirmation along the way so do it using LAN.
3./ In the process of dropping tablespace PSAP<SID>, I encountered:
BR0301E SQL error -604 at location BrTspDrop-2
ORA-00601: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01555: snapshot too old: rollback segment number 22 with name '_SYSSMU22$" too small
Solution: I have not fixed this yet but I think it is because my PSAPUNDO is too small(800M) so I will increase it to a bigger value e.g. 5GB
4. Problem: Unable to start sap after successfully migrated. OPS$user problem
Solution: logon as <sid>adm, run R3trans -x in a directory that <sid>adm has read/write permission. R3trans -x will creates a file call trans.log. Read the details and refer to OSS 400241
Result: I have successfully performed this on one(1) system and doing this on the another one currently but encounter Problem 3. Will update this further if there are more findings.

The current one I am implementing is a development system. The database is less than 100GB. 800MB of PSAPUNDO is sufficient for our development usage.
Follow up on Problem 3:
I created another undo tablespace PSAPUNDO2(undodata.dbf) with size of 5GB. I switched undo tablespace to PSAPUNDO2 and placed PSAPUNDO(undo.data1) offline. With PSAPUNDO2 online and PSAPUNDO offline, I started brspace -f dbcreate and encountered the error below at Step 2 Export User tablespace:
BR0301E SQL error -376 at location BrStattabCreate-3
ORA-00376: file 17 cannot be read at this time
ORA-01110: data file 17: '/oracle/DVT/sapdata1/undo_1/undo.data1'
ORA-06512: at 'SYS.DBMS_STATS", line 5317
ORA-06512: at line 1
I aborted the process and verified that SAP is able to run with this settings. I started CheckDB in DB13 and it shows me these messages:
BR0301W SQL error -376 at location brc_dblog_open-5
ORA-00376: file 17 cannot be read at this time
ORA-01110: data file 17: '/oracle/DEV/sapdata1/undo_1/undo.data1'
BR0324W Insertion of database log header failed
I don't understand then. I have already switched the undo tablespace from PSAPUNDO to PSAPUNDO2. Why the message above still appears? Once I put PSAPUNDO online, CheckDB completes successfully without warning.
I did show parameter undo_tablespace and the result is PSAPUNDO2(5GB).
So exactly, what's going on? Can anyone advise?
===============================================
I have managed to clear the message in DB13 after dropping PSAPUNDO tablespace including contents and datafiles. This is mentioned is OSS note 600141 pg 8 as below:
Note: You cannot just set the old rollback-tablespace PSAPROLL to offline instead of deleting it properly. This results in ORA-00376 in connection with ORA-01110 error messages. PSAPROLL must remain ONLINE until it is deleted. (Oracle bug 3635653)

Can UCCHECK be performed on already UNICODE migrated system during ECC upgr

Hi there,
Can UCCHECK be performed on already UNICODE migrated system during ECC upgrade?
If NO, why? What is the technical reason?
Prakash

Hi,
first unicode means
Unicode is a 16-bit code to represent universal character set, which is used to facilitate a better exchange of data between different systems.
for uncheck
The transaction UCCHECK is used to find Unicode related issues. You can use transaction UCCHECK to examine a Unicode program set for syntax errors without having to set the program attribute "Unicode checks active" for every individual program. From the list of Unicode syntax errors, you can go directly to the affected programs and remove the errors. It is also possible to automatically create transport requests and set the Unicode program attribute for a program set.
why you are checking second time.

Migrating system to 4k-sector HDD

My original 512-bytes sector hard disk couldn't pass SMART test, so I decided to change it. Have bought a new one 2tb HDD. But then I found out that there is a problem cloning partitions to my new disk, because it has 4k sector size. Is there a way to migrate system to the new disk? If yes could you explain please what I should do? I am not really experianced in this matter.
My HP desktop computer is slimline, so I could find the only one connection opportunity - through USB interface (if it is of some importance).
This question was solved.

It is unlikely that you will be able to use your HP Recovery Media with an Advanced Format (AF) hard drive. From your HP Pavilion Slimline s5380sc Desktop PC support page;
HP System Recovery error message in Windows 7: "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run in this computer hardware"
If you replaced a standard hard drive that is not an advanced format drive with an Advanced Format drive, System Recovery might not recognize the drive or partition, depending on the type and size of AF hard drive and when recovery discs were created (prior to Fall 2010). The following message appears:
Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run in this computer Hardware
When this happens, changing the SATA Mode setting (AHCI, IDE, RAID) in BIOS setup to an alternate setting might work. See one of the following documents for information about changing BIOS settings.
For information about BIOS setup and utility options for desktop computers, see HP support document, BIOS Setup Utility Information and Menu Options .
For information about BIOS setup and utility options for notebook computers, see HP support document, BIOS Setup Information and Menu Options .
If problems persist, it might be necessary to remove the AF drive as the main drive and replace with a standard hard drive using 512B-sectors (instead of AF 4KB sectors).
Alternatively, if you can still read the 25-digit Windows product key on the Microsoft COA affixed to the bottom the computer, you can install Windows 7 Home Premium using this key. Please see "How to Install Windows 7 Without the Disc" for instructions on how to download Windows 7, create the installation media, and install Windows 7 using the 25 digit product key from the Microsoft COA on your computer. Please note that this installation will not have any of the HP customizations or HP value-added that was original installed on your computer. Also note that you will need to download and install most of the drivers from the HP Pavilion Slimline s5380sc Desktop PC Drivers page.
Links to Windows 7 SP1 can be found HERE and HERE.
Direct link to the Windows 7 USB/DVD Download tool. Use this tool to create a bootable DVD or USB Flash Drive from the Windows .ISO
After installing the drivers, please post (just the text) the Windows Device Manager's "Hardware Ids" for all remaining missing or unknown devices as shown in the example below and we can direct you to the proper drivers;

Workbook Migration-System error in program CL_RSR_XLS_VIEW and from ASSIGN_

Hi Experts,
We are migrating workbooks from 3.x to BI 7. While opening the workboon from BI 7 Analyzer we are getting the following System Error and Disconnecting from BW server.
'Program Error in class SAPMSSY1 method UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION. System error in program CL_RSR_XLS_VIEW and from ASSIGN_QUERY_2_DP03'."
We are at support pack level 17 and GUI - 710 with patch level 8.
If you have experienced with the above errors. Please respond.
Thanks

Hi Naveen,
In migration you will get all these errors related to Front end. First save the Existing 3.x workbook so that the old version of the workbook will be saved into new Excel version (2003). now try to migrate the workbook , this time you will not get this error.
The root cause for this problem would be all your workbboks have been created erlier in very old version of Excel.

Is this the right SQL architecture for System Center?
How do you optimize this? I ran both queries and it returned zero values.
The DR plan is to implement back up strategy with SCDPM and keep backup copies on Azure Cloud. Plus, we will follow the DR plans for each System Center Product.

Conectivity between existent SAP Systems and migrated system to MSCS Cluste

Hi
I have an existing SAP NW PI 7.0 (Abap + Java on Windows 2003 - SQLServer 2005) and plan to migrate to a cluster with new hardware (MSCS).
I have to prepare for the installation by creating a homogeneous copy of the database but I'm a little bit confused.
-Can I use backup/restore method or only can use import/export with R3load tools? The target system is windows and sql server same versions.
-If I can use backup/restore... what is the rigth sequence to the installation? Can I use sapinst with mixed high availability options and System copy options?
-I need to use in the target system the same hostname and IP address of the actual system, so in the Follow-Up Activities we do not change the configuration between the actual system (SAP NW PI) and other existent systems in the landscape... but I do not know what is the location in the cluster to this hostname and IP:
*The central instance will be in the local disks in the node 1. Is the node 1 the rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system?
*The SAP Cluster group has a virtual hostname and IP, it has message and enqueu services. Is the sap cluster group he rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system?
How is the communication between the other systemas and the new clustered system?
Thanks for your help

Can I use backup/restore method or only can use import/export with R3load tools? The target system is windows and sql server same versions.
You should follow the SAP guidlines in performing a homogeneous system copy.
I need to use in the target system the same hostname and IP address of the actual system, so in the Follow-Up Activities we do not change the configuration between the actual system (SAP NW PI) and other existent systems in the landscape... but I do not know what is the location in the cluster to this hostname and IP
This is not possible. If you follow the SAP instructions for installing NW 7.0 in MSCS you will create two cluster groups: DBGroup and SAPGroup. You will therefore have two virtual IP addresses, one for SAP cluster group and one for DB cluster group. If you retain the current IP address/hostname for the virtual SAPGroup, you will need to follow the SAP guidelines for performing a SAP system copy to find where to change the database hostname/IP addresses to point to your new DBGroup.
The central instance will be in the local disks in the node 1. Is the node 1 the rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system?
If you are meaning the ASCS then this should be installed on the disks that are part of the SAPGroup in the cluster.
If you mean the dialog instance (or the Central Instance of a Java stack) then this can be on a local disk for node 1, and not in the cluster.
The SAP Cluster group has a virtual hostname and IP, it has message and enqueu services. Is the sap cluster group he rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system
Yes, this will be the message server host for ASCS.

Migrating System.Data.OracleClient to Oracle.DataAccess.Client - XSD error

Hi, I'm a newbie using Oracle ODP.NET provider for .NET.
We have a web application that uses XSD to connect to Oracle using the provider System.Data.OracleClient.
We want to migrate from System.Data.OracleClient to Oracle.DataAccess.Client.
Installing and referencing the Oracle.DataAccess.dll all works fine.
Then I changed all the references from System.Data.OracleClient to Oracle.DataAccess.Client and removed the System.Data.OracleClient.dll assembly from the web.config file.
All compiles well, until I run the application, looks like the problem is the parameter use in the XSD file... the error I get is:
Server Error in '/src' Application.
Value does not fall within the expected range.

Many thanks in advance for any help!

MS OracleClient binds parameters by name. ODP.NET binds by position. If you want to change ODP.NET's default parameter binding behavior, set:
OracleCommand.BindByName = true;
Do this for every OracleCommand that binds parameters.

Migrating system/apps to new SSD?

As above, I just bought a new 240GB SSD drive and I would like to migrate my system from the existing HD in the Mac Pro to the new SSD and boot from that SSD. The HD will then become a simple data drive. How can I do this with the least hassle?
Regards
Steve

Are you in the habit of cloning your system already?
Carbon Copy Cloner can move the Lion Recovery Partition.
Also selective choose the folders to skip ~ your media folders in your home account
For how to keep home folder on another drive
http://chris.pirillo.com/how-to-move-the-home-folder-in-os-x-and-why/
though keep home folder is fine and just direct your apps where to find their folders.
Also, a clean install and Setup Assistant also works.
I assume you don't want all your data to be on SSD, just the small 1GB in
~/Library
which would benefit from staying with the OS.
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/7032/carbon-copy-cloner
http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-HowToClone.html
http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-HowToClone-backup.html
No matter what keep a disk image of your OS, keep a bootable hard drive of the system on standard hard drive. And keep your current setup as backup. Use another hard drive for simple data instead.

Why won't Mail.app rules won't migrate, System Tiger to System Leopard?

Hi,
Mail.app rules won't migrate from System Tiger to System Leopard.
Here's what I did:
-- Clean install of System Leopard 10.5.6 onto a new Mac Pro.
-- Used Migration Assistment to move files from System Tiger to System Leopard 10.5.6.
-- Mail.app's rules failed to migrate.
So, I manually finder-copied MessageRules.plist into the proper folder to replace the newly created and empty rules set in System Leopard's mail.app, and afterwards, the rules then showed up in mail's preferences.
However, the "manually migrated" [finder copied] rules won't run.
In order to narrow the scope of the problem, I moved the former System Tiger's mail.app rules to the desktop and allowed mail.app to re-create a new rules plist file, then I created a test rule and it worked.
Questions:
Why won't System Tiger's mail.app rules files migrate to System Leopard, and won't work upon manual migration?
What is the remedy to "properly import" the rules to the new [System Leopard based] mail.app, or to make the manually moved rules plist file work?
For what it's worth I did follow the procedures at
http://discussions.apple.com/thread....9306&tstart=90
in order to make the messages migrate, but that failed to affect the rules.
Thanks much,
Jack

Here's the fix, along with recommendations for Apple programmers.

Exchange 2003 to 2010 SP3 migrate system PF

Hello.
We on the road to move to Exchange 2010 and i have a question
Which system PF i need to replicate to Exchange 2010
I have:
Offline address book:
/o=orgname=cn addrlists/cn=oabs/cn=Defaul Offline Address Book (which replicated between exch 2003 and 2010) and subfolders there:
OAB version 2 (replicated between 2003 and 2010)
OAB version 3a (replicated between 2003 and 2010)
OAB version 4 (replicated between 2003 and 2010)
EX:/o=sovbank/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT) (don't have any replica at all)
EX:/o=sovbank/ou=First Administrative Group (replicated between 2003 and 2010)
Shedule and Free Busy folder which contain subfolder:
EX:/o=sovbank/ou=Exchange Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT) (don't have any replica at all)
EX:/O=SOVBANK/OU=EXTERNAL (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT) (don't have any replica at all)
EX:/o=sovbank/ou=First Administrative Group (replicated between 2003 and 2010)
Question is - did i add all replica right?
Can i execute MoveAllReplica.ps1 or i miss something?
P.S. We don't use EFORM so i don't repicate it at all

Each time you create a new user mailbox, the user account receive the LegacyExchangeDN property.
This property is set only once and will match the administrative group that the mailbox server belong to.
In a Exchange 2003/2010 migration, your old user will have a legacyDN strting with EX:/o=sovbank/ou=First Administrative Group[..] while the user recently created in E2010 will have EX:/o=sovbank/ou=Exchange
Administrative Group (FYDIBOHF23SPDLT) [...]
So what is the link between this and the PF? The answer is outlook.
When an outlook client, with a mailbox hosted on E2003, create a meeting request with other users and check for the availability, that query is against the public folder Schedule freebusy folder of each users.
That folder is updated, by outlook, each time you create an appointement or accept a meeting request. In the background outlook "push" your free/busy status to his "local"public folder. see here
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa996946(EXCHG.65).aspx
In E2010 native, the query are handled by the availability service however that service is not reachable by E2003, or outlook 2003, therefore for backward compatibility any outlook client (even outlook 2010) connected to an E2010 mailbox will also
"push" the free busy data to the local PF.
If you see "unable to read FREE busy data" when creating a meeting,between E2003 and E2010, that is because your local PF does not have a replica of that information for this user.
So to answer the question, yes the folder Shedule and Free busy -EX:/o=sovbank/ou=Exchange Administrative Group
(FYDIBOHF23SPDLT) need to be replicated on all servers.

Migrating System and Using Parallels

I recently bought a new Intel iMac and had the company pre-install Parallels for me, with a new Windows XP system installed on the Windows side. When I then tried to migrate my system from my old PowerPC, it screwed up the Windows installation. When I launch Parallels, it prompts me to install Windows.
What do I do? Do I have to re-install? Or is my copy of Windows still there, just unusable?

Good morning,
Chances are that when you migrated your profile from your old Mac over to your new one you either changed User Names or overwrote your new user profile directory which contained the Parallels image.
If you can log back into the other account, the one that came with your new Mac, you should be able to find the Parallels disk image in Home -> Documents -> Parallels. This will need to be transfered to your new profile in order to be properly read.
Hope this helps! 

Question migrating system from Intel to PPC

I have a quick question, and after doing some searching here I have not come across this. I have a 2GHz Core Duo iMac currently running Leopard, I recently acquired a 2.3GHz Dual Core PPC G5. Now most of my production apps are not native under Intel so run under Rosetta.
Turns out the G5 is faster than the iMac and therefore I want to Migrate my system from the iMac to the G5. Both have Leopard running but can I use the Apple's Migration Assistant to transfer all the files and settings from the iMac to the G5?
Thanks in advance for any help

Hi
Use this guide:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=435350
It works both ways, basically eliminating the need to use Migration Assistance, which quite a number of posts here reported "poor results" when they use Migration Assistance to move their data from one platform to another.
Use the guide and move all your data files across, some preferences and keychain etc. Best you fresh-install all your applications in the G5, instead of moving the apps across, because sometimes some installation put components in multiple locations in your mac

Change filelocation whilst migrating system using online backup (hom. systemcopy)

Hi all,
Situation:
I'm migrating (homogeneous systemcopy) a couple of systems running on windows / oracle to windows / oracle using an online backup created on the source system ((brbackup –c –p initSID.sap –u system/***** -t online) . This backup will be shipped to the target system. I also want to keep and apply the redologs from after this backup to the new target system.
I need to change driveletters:
old      SAPDATA_HOME                   T:
new                                                     X:
old     ORACLE_HOME                      E:
new                                                    G:
old     oraarch                                    P:
new                                                    Y:
Question: Is this possible? What would be my aproach (using swpm).
Many thanks!
Marcel

Hello Marcel,
Note that when you run the target system installation, you will be running a fresh installation, but the only difference will be you will restore the database during the target system installation.
Therefore, you just need to set all new drive letters when SWPM request for them.

Migration System 4.6 HR to 4.7

Hello,
I have to migrate an 4.6 Hr system in romanian to 4.7.
The question is : i have to migrate the whole system on a new server or there are some patch that is sufficient to apply?
Thanks in advance,
Cristina

Hi Cristine:
If I don't misunderstand your question, if you need to upgrade your SAP R/3 release from 4.6 to 4.7, you will need to perform a full release upgrade. You can't just upgrade the HR module.
