Restore SECSTORE security store after system refresh?

When we refresh a QA system from PRD, we first export the RFCDES table from QA, then perform the homogeneous system copy from PRD -> QA, and then import the RFCDES table we saved prior to the copy. This restores the various RFC destinations in the QA environment.
In recent releases, the password information has been moved out of the RFCDES table into the Secure Store; it looks like this is based on tables RSECTAB and RSECACTB. However, when we transport the contents of these tables and then bring them in again after the refresh, the RFC destination passwords are still marked invalid.
Has anyone refreshed a QA system while saving the RFC destinations, using the secure store? If so, how?
Thanks,
Rich

Hi ,
As an initial check , please check for error/informaiton on Kernel.

Logical System Conversion after system refresh failed

Hello,
Logical System Conversion after system refresh couldn't complete as the printer was locked. This job was run in the background. In SM37, the job log of RBDLSMAP shows as job finished, but it took only 40 seconds. Now I see that the logical system got changed(Converted) in the client settings scc4 but I know that this client being a production client and would run for couple of hours. Here is the job log information.

When try to rerun bdls again, it shows that it is already available and it says "The new logical system name is already assigned to the current client".
Any suggestions on this?
Thanks,
Mahesh

Hi ,
Rerun the BDLS again as this took very little time.
When you try to run again it popsup message saying it already exists just delete that and again put the Logical system name and run it will run that time.
May be while scheduling the job you gave for spool I am not sure why is it looking for Printer which is locked.
Thanks.

SAP License issue after system refresh.

Hi,
After system refresh, refreshed system has License info of source system. When trying to apply license from unix, it gives below error, saying system number is incorrect to apply new license. Looks the system number of source system is causing issue. I checked, there is no data in MLICHECK table. I could see some info in "saplikey" table. System is 700 system.
sidadm> saplikey -install "/home/SID/sid_multiple.txt pf=/usr/sap/SID/SYS/profile/SID_DVEBMGS01_sapsidci
This system's system number is "000000000710287641", but there is a license key
for system number "000000000711311441" in file "/home/SID/sid_multiple.txt".
sidadm>
Thanks.

First check whether you have deleted all invalid licenses?
use below command to delete invalid licenses
sidadm>saplicense -delete
And apply new license based on new hardwarekey with below command
sidadm>saplicense -install
*I think there should be some invalid licenses lying in your system

After System Refresh Variants missing

Hi,
We have used Export / Import method to build QAS system from production
ABAP export file.
After System refresh we got the same Production client with all
configurations, Variants, Object including data.. Which is Perfect.
But, as per our business we don't want to use the same production
client number in Quality System., so we done Cliet Copy to copy to
different client (ex: Client 200) using SAP_ALL profile.
Question: But after client copy we found that some Data, Objects,
Variants are missing in the new client (200).
Ex: In Client 100 (Copy of production client) table T009 is having 10
entries, but after client copy in client 200 the same table doesn't have any
entry in that including standard and Z.
Please help me on this, how do I get clone / copy of 100 client
(original client)
Thank You,
Ramesh

Hi Ramesh,
Looks like your client copy didn't bring all the data and Objects, Did you checked logs, Is there any error message ? The client copy completed with all the tables ?
You can try Remote client copy method .
You can manually export the variants from the source client to Target client and you need to export the Variants from the table VARID, VARI, VARIT and VARIS.
You can use the below forum procedure to export and import variants.
how to export RFC destination to file in order to import it in an other sys
Since, not only the variants you are missing data and Objects, I would suggest for re-copy the client.

Security steps in system refresh

Hi all,
what are the pre steps and post steps from security point of view that needs to be performed on the target system when we do a system refresh .
Thanks.

Hi,
There some additional things to consider....
If the source system for the copy is a child system of another CUA model, then after the copy you have to delete the CUA model from the client that has been refreshed - this includes deleting the CUA model from BD64.
Once the copy is complete you have to double check the logical system of the refreshed client - very often this step is overlooked and it means that your RFC destination for this child system is no longer valid.
I agree with the previous post of exporting the SAP_USER profile from the target client, before the refresh takes place.

Source System Problem after system refresh in RSA1 trx

Hi,
We have R/3 4.7 Test source system created in our SCM 2007 Test System. The source system check was OK.
The R3 Test system was refreshed with Production data few days back and now my source system is not working. When i perform Source System check it says:
BI unknown in source system
BI IDoc type ZSSB006 is not the same as source system IDoc type
I performed following steps in R3 Test system after its system refresh:
1. Created logcal system and created RFC.
2. Created port in trx we21.
3. Created partner profile in trx we20.
4. For the outbound parameter RSSEND, I had to create idoc type that should be same as in my SCM system i.e. ZSSB006.
5. Created idoc type using trx we30 as a copy of RSSEND and added entry in table EDIMSG. Now, i could also create outbound parameter RSSEND with idoc type ZSSB006.
After performing the above steps i also replicated the datasources for the R3 Test source system, but its still showing above error.
I also checked the RSBASIDOC table in SCM test system. It has correct entry for my source system. But there is no such entry in RSBASIDOC table in the R3 test system.
Someone pls help me.

Chintan

Hi
Need to restore the All Dalaload connection settings after refresh the system which either R/3 or SCM.
RSA1 -> select the Source system -> Right click -> Restore , It'll ask the connecon paramters like RFC , method of activations. Then check the connection test of the Source system .

Delta Setup/Link Broke After System Refresh in Sandbox with Prod

Hi All,
   We have done the System Refresh for Sandbox with Production in BW. After that, we tried to load 0FI_GL_4 Delta and it failed with 'Queue 0FI_GL_4 is not available in the Source System' in Monitor. It means something went wrong in System Refresh process and the Delta setup broke. The 'Status' traffic light for 0FI_GL_4 DataSource is in RED in 'BW Delta Queue Maintenance' (RSA7) in R/3 system. When I display this Status (Red traffic light) it says 'There are still no parameters available for the delta transfer'.
   Since the Delta link broke, I have deleted the 0VENDOR_ATTR Master Data DataSource in RSA7 in R/3 and Initialized the Delta in BW for this 0VENDOR_ATTR and it completed successfully and now 0VENDOR_ATTR Master Data DataSource in RSA7 in R/3 is in GREEN.
   But, we have GL InfoCube which has 120 million records and if we initialize the Delta it will take atleast 7-10 days. It will take atleast 2 weeks for all the InfoCubes and ODS's.
How could we restore the Delta setup/link and the Status of the DataSources will turn into GREEN in RSA7 in R/3, PLEASE ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Ask your BASIS team to run BDLS. That should take care of the problem. It'll repoint the delta queues to the correct source system. With the refesh the delta DS will point to the system it was refreshed from, hence the problem.
Cheers,
Kedar

Java Dispatcher Down but Server0 and SDM up after system refresh

Hello,
I have done system refresh from PRD to QAS of CRM system - dual stack.Once after the system refresh ABAP is up and running fine but Java is down (Only Dispatcher is down. Both SDM and Server0 are running fine).
I have followed Note 609603 - Problems with Multiple NICs and SAP J2EE Engine and have given the correct host name but the no luck..
std_dispatcher.out says the following error:
Cannot attach to the Message Server. Can't open port [3925] on host [<Source Host Name>/Source IP Address].
Could you please let me know if I need to do any changes in the Config tool?
Thanks,
Subbu

HI,
IN DB restore the hostname of java system stored in profiles would be your PRD.
Go to Configtool in Edit mode -- cluster --> change the hostnames in Instance profile -- and under other files like bootstrap etc whereever you find PRD hostname.
And otherwise for JAVA system you should use export/import option.

Lost Bluetooth after system refresh 15-4010nr

With the whole 8.1 upgrade debacle, I had to wipe my system and start fresh. Now I just realized I have no bluetooth on my laptop. I'm mostly sure I had it, but I cannot find it on the device manager. Any idea where I can download the driver?
Thanks

Hello DrKrizzle,
I see you're trying to find the bluetooth on your Notebook after doing a system refresh. I will try to help you with this.
If the refresh has reverted the Notebook to Windows 8, you may use this link for the driver which should enable the bluetooth for you again. Intel Bluetooth Driver. If you have upgraded back to 8.1 after the refresh, there is currently no driver listed.
You may also use the HP Recovery Manger to try to restore lost drivers. Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8).
I hope this is able to help you, let me know how it goes.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

Windows 8.1 will not activate on HP19-2113w after system refresh.

Everything was working fine on my PC. Then the other day it crashed and said there was a disk error and that it had to scan the whole drive to find the error. It finished scanning, but windows 8.1 would not load sucessfully. Therefore I did a system refresh thru HP recovery. After doing that windows would start up normally, but I lost my activation. When I tried to activate the response was "Key doesn't work try again later" or something like that. Kept trying, no luck. I thought it may have been an error with the system refresh, so I did the total system reset (after saving personal data). Now I am having the same problem with activation, and If I try to navigate the normal way to the activation screen, the screen disapears. I can get to activation using command prompt. but key still does not work. The key I am using I retrived from my BIOS data. Also, I ran the refresh and reset from the origional hard drive partition. I hope someone has a solution to this. Thanks is advance Bill

Table structure changed in testing system after system refresh.

Hi Team,
Recently we underwent a system refresh in Testing System where the Testing data is filled with Production data. But now we find that in one table some fields which we had deleted they are again found there. The version history of table is also gone. The table object was under testing in testing system and after which it was supposed to be transported to production. I believe System refresh only means refresh of data and it has nothing to do with table structure. Please correct me if I am wrong. Please also let me know what could be the reason of those changes in table if it is not System Refresh.
Regards,
Amit

I believe System refresh only means refresh of data and it has nothing to do with table structure.
Alas, you were wrong, after all table definition are data too, as program sources...
You have to re-import every transport request which was not yet transported to production in your test system.

Adding transports to import queue after System Refresh

Hello All,
Every time we do system refresh from PRD to Sandbox as a part of post refresh activity we need to import all the transports which are in the import queue of PRD(which are not yet imported to PRD) to our Sandbox.
But its a tedious job, as in the import queue many old transports which are still not yet imported to PRD will b there.
So may b around 150+ transport requests in the import queue of PRD, which we need to add those manually from path
Extras---->other requests -
> Add. doing same for 150 times. cant even imagine dat work.
So my question is, Is there any way to get the replica of import queue of PRD to Sandbox.
Some where i read like transport buffer in the path /usr/sap/trans/buffer/<SID> of the system will have list of all transports in the import queue.
So can i copy dat file and replace SID with Sandbox SID and place it in the Sandbox under same path.
Please suggest or give me a correct solution.
Regards,
Ravi

Thanks a lot for your reply.
I had read about using script like tp addtobuffer inorder to add the transports to the import queue some time back.
But forwarding transports is a new method i got to know here which even looks easy too. It would be great if any 1 tell me how forwarding works.
Also it would b fine if who all uses this method of forwarding to add transports to import queue do reply about any problems faced while forwarding requests.
Bcoz in our landscape , transport route is as below
Dev to QA and Sandbox then from QA transports will move to Production.
So after refresh forwarding Transports from PRD to Sandbox, how does this work. Please share your suggestions.
Regards,
Ravi

False backup / archive alerts after system refresh

We have implemented CCMS on our systems. We recently refreshed our QTS system with a backup of production (PTD). CCMS is now sending alerts for backups and archives. It tells us that the backup and archive did never run.
I checked DB12 and found that there is no data in DB12. This is probably due to the system refresh.
Is there any extra post refresh step that we can do to prevent these false alerts (other than running a full online backup as post refresh step)? Is it possible to export the backup information (tables used by DB12) as pre refresh step and re-import them after the refresh?

Will it create issues if we do not delete tables SDBAH and SDBAD during the refresh?
No. BTW, tables are not to be deleted, just the table 'entries'.
