Need client copy of production server in quality server

Hi,
I need the client copy of production server with application data in quality server. How i do this?
Main purpose is we have no data in quality server in testing purpose.  if we configure the client of production server in Quality, we can test it by our requirement.

Try this
Preparatory steps in source SAP system
1 Take the trace of control file in the source system using the following command at SQL prompt as below:
SQL>alter database backup controlfile to trace;
The trace file can be found in the location <drive>\Oracle\<SID>\saptrace\usertrace.
2. Open the file with notepad and save a copy as controlsrc.txt
3. Stop the SAP
4 Shutdown the database from SQL prompt.
5. Take backup of database files.
6. Start SAP
Steps in the Target system
7. Install SAP system with <TGTSID>
8. Stop the SAP.
9. Shutdown the database from SQL prompt.
10. Take the backup of database files.
11. Edit controlfilesrc.txt with regard to the locations of datafiles of source system to be placed in target system taking in to account the space available in different drives and save as control.sql. Also SET DATABASE u201C<TGTSID>u201D RESETLOGS.
12. Replace the database files with source systems database files conforming to the control.sql
13. Start the database in nomount state from SQL prompt as below.
SQL>startup nomount
14. Run the control.sql script as follows:
SQL>@@<location of directory>\control.sql.
Once the script runs successfully, the database will be in mount state
15. Open the database with resetlogs option as follow:
SQL>alter database open resetlogs;
16. Create OPS$ users of source system conforming to target system conventions in database.
17 Set the environment variable dbs_ora_schema to SAP<SRCSID> as the owner of the database objects will still be as SAP<SRCSID>..
18. Start SAP.

  • Client copy duplicate product categories

    How do i delete duplicate product categories in SRM5.0? I have a set of Pcats from the client copy (cats pointing BE of the client that is copied) and another set of Pcats replicated from the backend after client copy with logical system pointng to BE. I want to delete the copied ones and keep the replicated ones,...I had similar problem (doem pointing to quality BE and some dev BE) with products but I manged to change the logical system through BDLS and COMM_PRODUCT table, but in COMM_CATEGORY table i can't change the system as it is duplicated.
    Thanks,
    Shankar

    Hi Shankar,
    You can very well delete the hierarchies and products that are not relavant.
    For deleting products: Use SA38 txn. and run the report for COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_SINGLE , for deleting single product or COM_PRODUCT_DELETE_ALL for deleting all the products.
    For executing this report COMC_PR_TOOL_REG table needs to be populated with the program name, user name and execution date using SE16 txn.
    COM_HIERARCHY_DELETE_SINGLE report needs to be executed using SA38 txn. for deleting the Hierarchy that is material group or material type.
    For deleting product categories which are not relavant use txn. COMM_HIERARCHY and in the change mode double click on R3MATCLASS and choose the concerned back end and select the category to be deleted and click on Dlete category tab.
    Hope this makes you more clear and helps in resolving your issue.

    1. Can you please suggest why do we need to restart teh XI Server ?
    It is not done on the frequent basis until you fae some problems like file adapter not appearing in the adapter configuration.....none of the adaters are present in ID (EX)
    it will only start the servicess or other things which were hanging or not responding state.....
    2. In what way it will be helpful for us ?
    ot moght e helpfull some times but not always...it depends on the probelm you are facing...lot of problems can be solved without restarting the server
    3. Will it clear any locks ? or any dump files ?
       Not sure
    4. Is it recommended to star t and stop the sever ?
      Not recomded to do it frequenlty without any valid reason (until you apply some patches etc)

  • Need to transfer/migrate production server from HP-Unix to SuseLinux 11.5

    Background : We are having ECC 6.0 running on HP Unix
    What we need to do : want to migrate the entire production application to a new server under o/s SuseLinux 11.5 certified by SAP AG
    What we are doing : there is a utility called Software Developer Tool DRYRUN using this utility want to export application to storage and from store we shall restore the application into the new server under o/s SuseLinux 11.5
    What error I am getting :
    Sapinst could not find the required software logistics java libraries DIAGNOSTS. The global directory may not be available at u2018/usr/sap/fpp/flobalu2019 or its contain may not be up-to-date in addition the version of the SAP NetwWeaver java system might be lower than AP6. SOLUTION, Mound the global directory and/or apply the latest support package.
    Using above method we could migrate development server to SuseLinux 11.5 successfully.
    If I have posted this question on wrong forum pl. guide me
    Thanks
    Nitin

    Hi Nitin,
    Just to check with you, OS/DB migrations has to be performed following certain rules. HPUX is big endiand and Linux is little endian so an Heterogeneous system copy should be performed and theres only a few supported ways to perform the migration. Have you check that the usage of DRYRUN is ok and that your system will be supported after the migration?...

  • Client copy to another server

    I would like to copy client from one server to another server.I beleive i can use client export/import for the copy but my question is that did i need to do any connection between two servers??

    Hi Samson,
    For an e.g If you are using two system landscape i.e DEV & PRD system .Then perform below steps to maintain TMS in your landscape.
    1.On DEV server ---> Use client 000 with user DDIC/<password>.
    2.Execute SE06 --> Choose std system installation & perform post installation actions.
    3.Execute STMS & maintain/save it as a domain controller.
    4.Under STMS --> system overview maintain a virtual system entry for PRD & maintain transport routes
    On PRD end:
    1.Execute STMS & choose to add in transport domain controller.
    Hope this will help you,also you'll get lots of step by step execution material to maintain TMS on internet.

  • During client copy tabels missing

    hello,
    while  client copy from production server to quality server , error occured tables missing . plz help me.
    regards
    mohsin
    +919867577675

    Hi,
    If you perform remote client copy ABAP dictionaty objects are not copied.
    So, before you perform such copy ensure that both systems are consistent (SUPPORT PACKS + ALL CONFIG TRANSPORTS  MUST BE EQUAL).
    Compare in ABAP dictionary (se11) of both systems if the missing tables exist and if they are active.
    If there is table on source system and is missing on target : look for transport which contains this table and apply it to target setrver.

    The problem you have is, that your TEMP tablespace is too small on the target system, you need to increase it.
    Check Note 3155 - Termination due to tablespace overflow

  • Production Client copy.

    Hi All,
    We have just installed a ECC 5.0 Production Server. We are creating a new client. We created the logical system and defined the new client as Production. Now when we run the Client copy from 000 it prompts that the target client is production and cannot be overwriiten. My query is, do we need to define the new client as customizing and then change it to production after the client copy?
    Or is there a different procedure for the client copy on production. Please help
    Thanks
    Deepak

    Hi Deepak,
    You can change the status of this client to Development and procced with client copy and afterwards, change it to Production system status.
    Hope this helps.

  • Creation of production client copy

    Hai,
    What are the prerequisites for creation of client copy for production?
    This is in regard to eleminate the default company codes existing in 000 client. In case if we opt for sap_cust the entire company code is copied.
    Thanks
    Hari Mohan

    Hi,
    you can not eliminate default company code while copying the client from 000 using SAP_CUST profile.

  • Can a client be refreshed with client copy?

    I created a new client by
    doing client copy from client 200 creating client 202
    Now I want to refresh client 202 from client 200 (ALL ON SAME SERVER) , can I just re-run the client copy with source client being client 200 to client 202?
    If so what am I to expect?
    If not, then do I need to first drop client 202 and then do the client copy to re-create the client?
    maria

    Dear Maria,
    Greetings!
    To be clear, now your situation is to have a client copy from your Production client 200 to the Quality client 202.
    Coming to the status of other clients in Quality system, the data or any other settings of the other clients is NOT going to be changed because of this client copy.
    As far as the configuration part, you will have to perform the following functionalities in your Target client (Quality - 202)
    1. Transaction SCC9 - Select Profile - Choose the SAP profile as per your need.
    2. Enter the RFC destination to the Source system client - Production Client 200 - This RFC destination could be an already existing connection between both the systems or a newly created one.
    3. Make an RFC system comparison to be sure that the connection is perfect.
    4. Set-up the parallel processing parameters, Menu option Goto - Parallel Process. This option is dependent on the physical memory availability of the Quality server.
    5. Execute a TEST RUN, prior to start of the actual client copy to verify Target client feasibilities. In case of any mismatch in table definition or table fields corresponding action has to be performed.
    Please remember the following pre-requsities before starting the client copy.
    1. Both the Source and Target client is to be locked against access to end users or other users. For a pre-caution lock all the users except SAP*, DDIC, TMSADM, BASIS and other System Admin users in both the clients.
    2. No auto-logout parameters or restrictions on workprocess runtime exists as profile parameters in the system.
    3. Additional space for a client is available in the database so the the client copy in not interrupted.
    Kindly process the client copy in a server session such that network interruptions and other interruptions could be avoided.
    Kindly revert in case you need further informations on the same.
    Thank you
    Regards,
    Vineeth

  • Client Copy from BWP to BWT

    I had a problem with my List Cube Transaction and for that reason, I had a look at the Infoprovider and also the Data Sources.
    When tried to execute the infoproviders in LISTCUBE, the following messages are being displayed in BWT system:
    1. Error reading the data of InfoProvider ZIP_RC_01
    2. There is still no data source assigned to VirtualProvider ZIP_RC_01
    But, when executed the same in BWD, then it is working fine.
    I have checked the Data Sources in the R/3 Dev system and the DS has no problem. But, when I check the DS in the R/3 Prod (SS in BWT system), the following error message is displayed in the status bar:
    "DataSource Z_IP_RC_DS_1 is not defined in the source system"
    I thought, as the system says the Source system is not available, hence the problem in LISTCUBE and thought if we transport the DS again and then replicate in BW, then our problem would be resolved.
    But, seems that even though the source system says "PRD300", if I look at SM59 it actually points to our QAS system. It says PRD300 because BWT is a copy down from BWP, and that's the source system we use - in other words the logical name is the same, but the actual servers are different.
    In any case, the datasource is transported to our QAS enviroment.
    So, once we do a client copy from Prod to Test, even the source systems get copied. If yes, then does it really affect in case of replications and transports???
    I am really confused in this part...please explain.
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    It looks like the basis team, or whoever performed the Copy from production to QA box hasn't finished all the necessary Steps :
    Main transaction to know:
    SSC4 -> To create new client
    SCCL -> Client copy within local system
    SCC9 -> remote client copy
    SCC3 -> display client copy log

    Probably sounds like transaction BDLS hasn't been done.

  • Remote client Copy

    Dear All,
    I am trying to do Remote client copy from Production to Dev system (two system landscape).Below is my hardware configuration of DEV and PRD system :
    SAP - R/3 4.7(NU) , O/S - AIX , DB - ORACLE 9
    PRD SYSTEM :
    DATABASE Server
    CPU - 2 (375 MHZ)
    RAM  - 3 GB
    APPLICATION server
    CPU  - 2 (375 MHZ)
    RAM  - 2 GB
    Database size of the Prd system is around 95 GB
    DEV SYSTEM
    CPU  -  2 (375 MHZ)
    RAM  - 2 GB
    I am doing test run first so that i can see if any errors come and also to estimate downtime of the PRD Server(as SAP recommends that no user should be login in target and source client while doing client copy).
    From the last 24 hrs. it has just completed 2500 tables only. total tables are 27500 something(Non - Unicode system).Its running very slow.... 
    Is there any way to improve the speed of Remote client copy ?
    Else I am planing to do Export - Import of client.
    Is there any way to estimate downtime of PRD Server while taking Export of client like In how much time Export of Source client will be completed....
    Thanks & Regards,

    I want to go for the process you suggested.
    I have a question for this;
    1.  My DEV server is the domain controller and when I login to my PRD server and run the command df -k (it shows /usr/sap/trans directory mounted to DEV server).
    So if I change the location trans directory through STMS (system overview DEV-->Transport tool) will it get updated for PRD or I need to restart the machine DEV or PRD. do I need to do anything else like mounting etc so that PRD server can access the same to save the export file when I will be taking the export of PRD client.

  • Differences between client copy with sap_all and database copy

    What's the difference between client copy with sap_all and doing a database copy.
    I know if I do a database copy from Production to our Quality system.
    I need to install the license key
    restore the production library to the quality library
    Initialize TMS and so on.
    I know if I want to copy to our Development system. I would need to run either a remote client copy or and export/import since I cannot do a database copy because I would loose all my other clients in Development.
    My question is, if the quality systems and the production systems are on the same support packs, same kernel.
    What does a database copy give you (besides being faser) that a remote client copy or export/import of a client copy does.
    Any differences
    Thanks
    Joe

    Hello Joe,
    If there is inconsistent Z tables between QAS and PRD, remote client copy could fail, especially when the table on PRD has longer length or more fields than the one on QAS.
    Also the source client should has no-activity during the client copy, otherwise the application data could be inconsistent. For example, some material documents are copied, but not the corresponding financial documents. (For PRD client, it could be hours between the times those tables are copied.) For database restore, it is rarely an issue.
    Best regards,
    Victor

  • BDLS or BDLSS after Client copy

    Hi all,
    I am currently working on two systems ..SRM and ECC 6.0.In SRM and ECC.We have 2 clients 100(Development) and 120(Customizing) in both the systems.We recently did a client copy of production to our development clients and I have one confusion regarding the LOGICLA SYSTEM UPDATE which is one of the madatory steps post client copy.
    For the LOGICAL SYSTEM UPDATE,do we need to run the transaction BDLS or BDLSS??What is the difference between these 2 transactins?Also what are the advantages /disadvantages?
    My BASIS guy told me that during our client copy,BDLS was automatically run.Surprisingly,although BDLS was run,the logical system entries are not yet updated!
    Please advise.

    Hello,
    You need to run BDLSS, which has enhanced functionalities of BDLS. Check the following link out:
    [Conversion of Logical Systems|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_NW04s/helpdata/en/33/c823dbaea911d6b29500508b6b8a93/frameset.htm]
    For your question related the difference between BDLS and BDLSS, from the above link:
    As of NetWeaver 6.20, SAP provides the option to convert logical systems using a new transaction that is more transparent and easier to use. Transaction BDLS has been used for this purpose until now. This transaction remains unchanged, and is enhanced by the new transaction BDLSS. In contrast to BDLS, in BDLSS logical systems can also be converted remotely in all partner systems.

  • Which is better Remote Client Copy or Homogenous copy

    Hi All
    I have a task to synchronize the ECC Production server with devlopment server
    For this I have two option :
    1. Remote client copy from Production to Development
    2. Implementing homogenous copy(oracle procedure) of production server and then remove the existing development server.
    I want to know your expert view with which one should I go with, as I have seen many times that whenever I do remote client copy it gives error in test phase the following tables error. so I am not sure wherther I just go with clent copy or not.
    What things should keep in mind before doing it before doing homogenous copy?
    Thankx in Advance
    Regards
    Vinay Paul

    Hi All
    Is there any solution for below if I decide to go with Oracle Procedure of system copy. Because we have to provide this to one of our client as there production and Development server are out of Sink.
    1. Retaining the development history
    2. Retaining the transports history.
    I came to know that the above thing is possible but I have no idea how.
    Thankx in advance
