SAP R/3 4.7 Migration from HP-UX to Windows

Hello Everyone,
I am doing migration of 4.7 system from HP -UX to windows.The export completed successfully but I am stuck during the import phase (Database upload(Post processing) .All the log files in sapinst directory shows the code page error as below.
>>>DbSl Trace: ORA-1403 when accessing table SAPUSER

I had followed the step "System copy of MDMP systems" from Note
Note 970518 - Hom./Het.System Copy SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) SR2 ,,,but still it is failing at the same step and the Dialog.xml is overwritten with the original as it was before modifying.Not Sure where exactly the problem lies.Can someone please help.

Modified at two places in dialog.xml file, the SAP note doesn't mention "1100" in Dialog.xml as it currently shows in my Dailog.xml ,Not sure if I have to remove that too and start the import again from begening.
While export I had given "1100" as the code page and before starting import I modified the xml by removing the "Type numeric" and later during the import in selection field I couldn't enter the "MDMP" as it is allowing only numeric values.
Thanks

  • Migrating from SBS 2011 to Windows Server 2012R2 Standard with 365

    Im looking to move SBS 2011 to Server 2012R2 standard and with a 365 migration as well.
    Im thinking
    BPA for AD (health check)
    Add the Server2012R2 as a DC
    Ensure replication
    Move DHCP
    Change DNS
    Now this is where I get lost, now Im lost to use either dirsync or add essentials service, I have gone for standard and 30 cals with the option  as I have 28 users and the essentials service would make everything quite nice for remote access and backups
    etc....  however I don't know whether to just use dirsync with password replication instead ?
    Currently Im aiming towards getting the dc up and running then enabling essentials on the dc but I dont know how it will effect SBS and having essentials on the same network and sync'ing people to the cloud ? So Should I use DirSync on a different server
    instead to sync up to azure ?
    Finally with 365 I have only ever done a migration involving an export of pst's from an exchange box and then on a new domain with new pc's and reimport the pst's on the user accounts in outlook.
    However I have read when migrating to 365 was using exchange 2010 there was a application
    to move everything across however you needed an ssl cert iirc ? so I dont know how it works now since the nice new dashboard upgrade (assuming the tool has been updated like dirsync)
    along with the above how does AD now know where exahcnge if you use the migration app with an ssl cert and is it a case of still running the 365 config tool to configure each user to look at their mail in the
    cloud ? Also is it a good idea to enable essentials from the start of the 2012r2 dc for replication top 365 or to use dirsync ?
    then finally when replications is all good start transferring the FSMO roles over to the new DC and demote and remove the SBS server
    I have seen (below) but i dont think it covers this scenario and I cant be the only person in this situation =\ ?

    Hi,
    Would you please let us know current situation of this issue? If any update, please feel free to let us know.

    Currently Im aiming towards getting the dc up and running then enabling essentials on the dc but I dont know how it will effect SBS and having essentials on the same network
    and sync'ing people to the cloud?
    I’m a little confused with the description. Did you mean that set up DC (Windows Server 2012 Standard) and
    then install the Windows Server Essentials Experience role? If so, when you migrate, please refer to the article:
    Migrate from Previous Versions to Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials or Windows Server Essentials Experience
    Regarding to migrate Exchange to Office 365, please refer to following articles.

  • Migration from Photoshop Elements 8 (Windows 7 64 bit) to PE 12 (MAC)

    I am planning to move from a PC Windows 7-based system to a MAC.  As part of this move I will need to migrate Photoshop Elements from PE 8 in Windows to PE 12 on MAC.  Back in July, I previously asked what steps would be necessary to migrate to PE 11 on MAC, but I delayed making the move (waiting for the new MacBook Pro) and will now be migrating to PE 12. 
    Do I still follow the same steps for a (hopefully!) smooth transition of my tagged photos and catalog?  i.e., migrate from PE 8 (Windows) to PE 12 (Windows).  Then from PE 12 (Windows) to PE 12 (MAC).  Are there any gotchas or caveats that I should be aware of?  I've read a few horror stories in various places and am nervous. 
    Thanks, Amy

    I'm a bit slow on implementation.  So far I have good news and bad news.  But bottom line, I need some additional help.
    First the good news: The upgrade in Windows from PE 8 to PE 12 went smoothly, with all tags and their hierarchical structure maintained.  Ditto for Albums which showed up under "Local Albums."
    I am now stymied with the bad news and hoping for more guidance:  I just got my new MacBook last week, with my data files transfered over from my Windows PC.  Unfortunately, the migration to PE 12 MAC (installed for me with the disc from the boxed version) did not make the transition smoothly.  All of my tags came in under "Imported Keyword Tags," with the hierarchical structure totally flattened, and they cannot be dragged-and-dropped into a renewed structure into People, Places, and Events tags, as appropriate.  Also, all of my Albums have disappeared. 
    I'm thinking that maybe I should restore the catalog.  But when I started to do so, I was asked to choose between New or Original Location.  Then, when I chose "original location" (not wanting to clutter my new hard drive with duplicates), PE 12 gave me a warning about the potential for changes to the existing file structure.  So I stopped and decided to come back to the Adobe Forum for more help. 
    Thanks in advance!  Again!  Amy

  • Db migration from Solaris 8i to windows 10g

    There is requirement to move db from solaris8(dbversion8170 to window Server 2003 (10204 already installed)
    DB is about 80gb big, what would be the best approach ?
    I am thinking to create new db on windows, and export and import data.....any concerns/suggestion?
    Source System
    SQL> select * from v$version;
    BANNER

    TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production

    what are other options i can try ?I only mention this approach because you asked. I wouldn't recommend it as a general strategy. exp/imp is the most straight-forward.
    We are in the process of migrating from 9.2.0.6 to 11.1.0.7 (11.2 is not an approved standard yet in our enterprise), moving from Solaris to Linux, and consolidating two related instances into one.
    We had to handle some unique situations due to our consolidation, so we did a lot of the steps manually that exp/imp does for you. A side benefit of this extra work is the actual down time is can be less than exp/imp itself, and avoids the need to dump all the data to disk and read it all again. We have about 500GB to migrate. It is a lot more work than a simple exp/imp, and is probably not be worth the effort for a single 80GB instance.
    Our steps (oversimplified, there are more details than this) :
    Set up the new instance and configure storage
    Create users and roles in new DB
    export structure only (using 9i exp)
    import structure only (using 11g imp), without indexes or constraints
    copy data (insert /*+APPEND*/ into.. select * from ... over a database link)
    create indexes and constraints
    Handling LONG data, materialized views, interdependencies between schemas each presented their own special circumstances I had to deal with.
    The other path to get from 8i to 10g (mentioned only for academic reasons) is do a series of upgrades-in-place to get from 8i to 10.2.0.4 then use cross-platform transportable tablespaces to go from Solaris to Windows.

  • Migrating from PSE 5.0 Windows to PSE 6.0 Mac

    I am trying to figure out how to migrate from PSE 5.0 for Windows to PSE 6.0 for Mac.
    When I migrated from PSE4.0 to PSE5.0 (windows) I simply backed up and then restored the catalog.
    I have backed up the catalog from PSE 5.0 but don't know how to import the info into PSE 6.0 for Mac. Being as there is no Organizer window in the Mac version I assume it is done via Bridge, but didn't see anything to restore a catalog.
    Is it possible or do I just point Bridge at my photos and get it to create tags from the keywords embedded in the pics?
    All suggestions and hints welcome.

    As not many users here are familiar with Elements at all, I suggest you post in one of the Photoshop
    Elements
    forums down the hall.

  • Migrate FROM mail.app TO windows (thunderbird or outlook)

    I'm moving back to a windows machine after using a mac (quite happily) for about a year. Please do not comment on my decision; that is not the point of this post, nor is it my wish to filter out all the criticism I will most likely receive.
    What I need to do is export my considerably large Mail library (4 accounts and years worth of archived emails) from Mail.app to an XP-compatible format. I don't yet know which email program I'll use on the PC, but I can do either Thunderbird or Outlook. or something else, if there's a better one. I'll buy a shareware migration program, if that's the best idea. I can also migrate to Thunderbird on my mac first, and then from there to the windows machine.
    thanks in advance, and I again request that replies stay on-topic.

    for mail are your accounts imap? if so, then you just need to create the imap account(s) in either thunderbird or outlook and you should be in business. if you do not have an imap account, may i suggest you get one - gmail imap is free for example - then create it in mail.app, then move your emails/mailboxes to that new gmail imap account, then go to your pc and create that gmail imap account in either thunderbird or outlook...
    for ab, may i suggest you look at plaxo: http://www.plaxo.com, and maybe set up an account with them - i think the basic one is free - once all your contacts are uploaded to plaxo, you can choose to sync them to your other client, i.e. outlook for example.
    hope this helps

    > Actually I am discussing with SAP about generating a system copy to send over to SAP and they said that Data Pump is an option they can accept.  If Datapump is accepted by SAP internally, I would think after migration SAP should support datapump-migrated system.
    Hi Jun,
    I didn't said that SAP will not support your system, after the migration by Oracle data pump. I noted that OS/DB migration is performed by heterogenous system copy with the migration key.
    Under this circumstance, if they accept to support you during the migration process with data pump, there's no problem. As I noted that previously, technically it is possible to migrate the system by using data pump, but I didn't requested that kind of support to SAP. I've been surprized to hear that they will support migration with Oracle data pump method. This is my own assestment.
    Will they support you, if you face with a problem during the migration with data pump? Or some other problems you may be face after you go to productive, because of this migration?
    >> When you say "heterogenous system copy" does not support it, do you mean SAP does not support the converted system or just the process itself ? 
    I mean that SAP does not support just process itself and the problem you face because of this migration.

  • TREX Migration from HP-UX to Windows

    Hi Experts,
    I want to migrate TREX 7.0 on HP-UX to TREX on Windows. Is there a way to transfer existing indexes from the HP-UX system to the new TREX system running on Windows?
    Thank you,
    Rainer Walter

    Hi Joseph,
    thank you for your recommendation. Importing the indexes of the HP-UX TREX on the Windows TREX was exactly what I did. The Search function in TREXAdmin on the Windows system returned an error when trying to view the index content, throwing an error message. The TrexIndexServerAlert trace file contains entries like:

    Sounds as if the TREX index file format on HP-UX cannot be interpreted on Windows, and probably vice versa. This would mean that exporting/importing indexes with the TREX Python scripts can be used to transfer indexes between TREX systems of the same version running on the same OS platform only.

  • Migration from sun/solaris to windows

    While performing a migration of SAP from solaris to windows OS what are the implications, issues and things to keep in mind. Also which database would give the best performance (Oracle or MS SQL) and what are the specific requirements if latest release of MS SQL is to be used the database.

    > That is fine but I rather need to know that if the database is changed from Oracle10.2  to MS SQL 2000 then what can be the implications and what will be the additional hardware requirements, if the current SAP configuration is 4.6D and it is migrated to 32 bit windows server 2003.
    Why do you plan to use the almost 10 year old SQL Server 2000? It's like going back to Oracle 7.x times! SQL Server 2005 would be the way to go.
    > Whether shifting to MS SQL server 2000 would give an added advantage?
    Advantage for whom?
    - Oracle is expensive, the licenses and the annual maintenance is higher compared to SQL Server
    - Oracle is complex, SQL Server is much easier to maintain
    - Windows adds an additional risk (Virus, Malware) which is has to be dealt with separately (Firewalls, Virusscanners etc.) which in turn is additional work and hence costs additional money
    - Windows is not always a deterministic operating system ("it works again after reboot, nobody knows why")
    > My job is to give the pros cons of both configurations.
    I would do some research what both combinations are able to do, if you need certain Oracle features that are not available on SQL Server, if you developers and administrators are more convenient with Oracle, if you have specific requirements about performance that can't be fullfilled with SQL server etc.
    All that are things you have to evaluate and check. Since we don't know how you use the system and what you do with it we can't tell you what's "best" for your environment.

  • OS Migration from Solaris 10 to Windows Server 2008 R2 or higher

    Hi experts,
    We'd like to migrate the OS of our SAP systems to windows from Solaris 10. We're still wondering which version of Windows we'll use. (matter of money)
    Could you give me some docs, tips or advice to do that ? (requirements, how to do it, packages to install)
    I have checked berforehand that all the SAP solutions we're using are compatible with Windows Server 2008 R2 or higher.
    I heard I'd need an OS Migration Expert to do it, but still, before that I need to check if it's possible and a roadmap could also be nice.
    Thank you in advance,
    Best Regards.
    Alexiel.

    Hi Alex,
    From license perspective you need to procure license for Windows 2012 but for installation you can downgrade it to windows 2008 R2 as required.
    From suggestion perspective, it is always good to go with Windows 2012 to gain benefits from mainstream support and new features as compared to windows 2008 r2.
    As per SAP recommendation, it is good to have OS/DB certified consultant to perform the migration.
