Procedure of System copy in Solman 4.0 through sapinst based on ABAP+JAVA

Hello Everyone,
Iam on solman 4.0 based on netweaver 2004s based on ABAP+JAVA instance and database oracle 10g and on windows 2003 platform.I want to perform system copy for solman 4.0 through sapinst and if someone can provide step wise step procedure with 10-20 lines for system copy with sapinst ,it shall be gr8 help.
I hv gone through the system copy guide on OSS also but its too long and confusing also ,a 12-20 steps procedure shall be useful and helpful . Also Iam performing system copy where source system and taget system are same ie; the current sytem where application is installed , i wanna copy tat only and perform system copy on tat server only.plz revert to tat also.
Requested to revert at earliest as this is very urgent. Points guaranteed.My Email id is [email protected]
Thanks and Reagrds,
Somya

I don´t think, that the system copy guide is confusing, it has basically a step-by-step procedure, depending on the "way" use use (a backup or R3load).
There are several ways of doing a system copy and depending on the one you want to use, the procedure is slightly different.

System Copy and SOLMAN Key

Hi Gurus,
I just need clarification on this. I plan to build a new system using system copy menthod. Would I require a Key from Solution Manager for this new installation?
Appreciate your feedback.
Thanks,
SS

Hi
You'll need to install new license key after the system copy.
You must first delete all old licenses in tcode SAPLICENSE, then, request a new license at http://service.sap.com/licensekey
to do this you will also need a a new hardware key which helps in creating a new license key...
make sure you delete the system in the service market place and create a new system with the hardware key you get and then request the license.

Hi All
These are the steps I had to perform when I faced the issue -
Background:
Faced the issue when I was exporting the DB instance (SQL 2000) using SAPINST.
Steps:
1. We are running NW04S Portal System.Copied the E:\usr\sap\DEV.... files from CI to DB server.
2. Defined sapmnt/saploc shares for E:\usr\sap folder on DB server.
3. Created the folder E:\usr\sap\DEV\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386\mssjdbc and copied the files base.jar,util.jar,sqlserver.jar,spy.jar files from E:\usr\sap\DEV\JC00\j2ee\jdbc folder.
4. Retry the SAPINST. Final confirmation screen appeared.
5. Checked all the parameters for correctness and clicked on start...export started and finished completely.
All these steps I have done just looking at the log file.One thing I am not still clear is why SAPINST is looking for \usr\sap/...files/folder in DB instance instead of App server.
Would appriciate if any one can clarify this.
Thanks

Question concerning homogenous system copy abap+java

Hi,
I have the following question: we are running a SAP ERP2005 und Linux/Oracle.
We need a restore of the productive system form an early date, due to problem analysis. Because this system copy was not planed we didn't do the java SDM dump (as described in the manual). We do have a backup of database and the library files. Is it possible to use this files for the system copy and do some postactivities to get a consistent abap+java system?
Regards
Ulrike Tubbesing

Hi,
You need to have the SDM folder backup and if to be more specific you need abckup of the sdmrepository.sdc file so the J2EE engine can function properly.

Appreciate your responses
Thanks
Asim

Hi Asim,
1.I was getting error at Abap phase load error .So i have merge the tsk & bak files by r3laod and manually set ign in tsk files .Should i change the ign status back to error.Is this could be the problem causing in adjusting table name phase.
Status "ign" will ignore the object from being imported into the database. This may lead to inconsistency and loss of data.
2.We have used abap export using Sap inst only .Will that not effect if using import by SWPM
Actually SWPM also contains sapinst tool. But As I never never used this approach , I would suggest you to give a try and check.
Else you may need to perform fresh export and then import using SWPM.
Hope this helps.

Deepak Kori

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.

Homgeneouos system copy - Import/Export

Hello everybody,
I have successfully upgrade system( ECC 5.0) m from windows 2003 (32)+ SQL 2000 to windows 2003 (64-bit) + SQL 2005. using attach /detach method, in post processing execute STM tool, update stats etc.
But we found performance is not much of improve previous system with only 4 GB RAM, new one with 32 GB RAM.
I have remove the parameter PHYS_MEMSIZE parameter from the profile so it is under ZERO MEMORY MGT.
This above said in testing environment till.
For testing, I planning for the same using export/import
Plan :
Source system
1. Now, Export the database by executing sapinst.exe and then
select ABAP system-->MS SQL server -->Unicode -->ABAP Database content export
and continue with the Export procedure.
On the Target system
1. Create a directory EXPORT and copied all the exported data.
2. Start the SAP installation(only start database instance installation), enter the required parameters up to the
window selecting the database instance installation method, on this
I will choose System copy/migration(R3load based)
3. provide the path of the Export directory.
4. Specify the order in which the package are loaded - I select alphabetical order
5. No other option will select on this screen.
So for testing, I simply database export from source system and on target system I execute only Database instance installation, all process successfully done.
We have not any BW client so I am generate the DDL statement
Pleas suggest above plan is correct or anything missing?
will improve performance of system?
Thanks
Ganesh

HI!
As per suggested for DDL statement generation, we have no any productive BW client,
i tried on our Qaulity system by logging on regular using client, message display DDL statement
generated successfully,. but when I check in usr\sap\tmp folder there no file
1. Unicode migration option selection is necessary?
    in installation directory path is only /tmp so I checked in ( usr\sap\tmp) directory.
2.
Above procedure is correct, but during target system installation please continue with SAPinst to install SAP instance as well.
As above statement, I started installation on Target system by SAPinst then from option
mySAP EPR 2004 SR1
     System copy
          Target system
             ABAP system
                MS SQL Server
                    Unicode
                          Central instance installation
                          Database instance installation
                          MSCS Node A Configuration
                          MSCS Node B Configuration
                          Dialog instance installation
                          internet graphic server upgrad
I select Database instance installation Database instance installation option. No any other process I have done.
3. is same procedure for system copy in clustering environment ( because our Production system in windows 2003 (64 -bit) clustering environment.
4. After installation complet, in post processing need to use STM tool, update static etc.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Ganesh

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]

ABAP+JAVA system copy using 3rd party export/import tools

Hi all,
I am trying to do a homogenous system copy. I am following the syscopy guide for SAP NW 7.0 SR3 ABAP+JAVA systems
We are running AIX 5.L and Oracle.
My question is this. We are using an IBM XiV system for our disk storage, and we are able to restore from "snaps" which is their version of images. Does anyone know if it is possible to restore or "import" the data in a system copy using an outside tool like this? If so, do you have any information on how to?
I know it is possible to restore the database from an offline backup using BRTools rather than r3load and jload, and I just wanted to see if I can restore from a snap as it would save a lot of time in the procedure.
Any help or ideas would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

That approach is not supported.
The reason is: combined instances write the instance name and hostname in various places, on the filesystem in .properties files, in the JDBC configuration, depending on the java applications you run on top in various other places. What you're trying to do is effectively "renaming" an instance.
Technically it's possible to do it and to get it run, yes, but the supported way is running sapinst and choose ABAP + Java system copy. This will prevent you from lots of (not really documented) manual work after the copy.

Got stuck at import abap phase during system installation from system copy

hi,
we have ECC6 ehp4 sp5 level system (linux + db2), due to some reasons our quality system was crashed, we took homogeneous system copy of Production server through sapinst and now we are restoring in Quality server through sapinst. during import ABAP phase its taking long time to pass and system message its showing is
waiting 6134 minites for DDL template file DDLDB6.tpl in dump directories.
i stopped installation and once again started restoration through system copy. Now the system go stuck at the same phase

Hi,
AFAIK, report SMIGR_CREATE_DDL should be run in se38 before starting the export. This generates the required DDL statements which are needed for system copy.
For more info, refer system copy guide in http://service.sap.com/instguides. Hope this helps.

System copy guide for Solution Manager 7.0 SPS15

Hello,
a new hardware is needed for our SAP Solution Manager 7.0 SPS 15. I will install a new SAP Solution Manager and do a system copy from the old hardware to the new one. There is no migration neccessary, because OS and DB will be the same.
Now I'm searching for some informations and guides to do a system copy of a SAP Solution Manager. All I found was a system copy guide of Netweaver 04s SR3/SR2 with informations about Java Usage Types but not for Diagnostics.
Are there any guides or howtos to do a system copy with SAP Solution Manager ABAP+JAVA? Does anyone have experiences and advices?
Kind regards,
Sascha Piotrowsky

> Looking forwards to this event I'm afraid of forgetting some dependencies or configurations which have to be changed also, like SMD-Agents configuration,s trusted connections, wiley introscope, e2e and so on.
Wily is not part of the copy - you will need to copy this "manually". The connections et al must be re-done...

System copy ended with errors

Hi Gurus,
I am doing the system copy of ABAP + Java running on Windows 2008 with SQL server 2008.
During import at target system I am getting the below error at Post Load activities.

I have tried the below steps.
1) The environment variable MSSQL_FORCEOLEDB = 1 has to be set for the userID performing the installation
2) Kernel upgrade.
Any help would be highly appreciable.

Dear Akram
Can you check what files are exported from the source system while performing system copy.
Also, if you run sapinst on target system it asks you system copy using standard method or attach/detach method.
Which is selected?
