Save as system copy - BW QA -- BQ QA

Hello,
I'm attempting to create a transport in Transport Organizer in system BI QA in the mode "save as system copy". My plan is then to re-import to the same system in order to change the source system assignement of all involved transfer rules (I have a new R/3 QA that I want to connect to BI).
However, I get an error message saying that "Edit objects separately since they belong to different original systems".
What can I do about this? Which original system should I enter for these objects? BI QA or BI dev? Do I need to change anything in the transport settings in order to be able to transport from the QA system (standard is dev --> QA --> prod).
Thanks,
F C

Check note 1493850 and 1408161. The program RSDG_TRFN_ACTIVATE is developed for regenerating and re-activating transformations:
The programm has the following parameters:
Transformation ID (TRAN_ID)     Selection via ID of transformation,                                     optional.
Object status (OBJSTAT)         default = 'INA', should not be changed
Type of source                  optional
Source name                    optional
Type of target                  optional
Target name                    optional
In case of no input for field Transpormation ID, all transformation objects will be regenerated for specified Tape of Source/target or Target/source name. If the programm will be run without any selections, all objects of transformation type (table RSTRAN) will checked and re-generated. DTP's containing transformation of source - / target type 'InfoSource' also will be re-activated.
In case you need to reactivate an already active transformation you need to put the parameter Object status (OBJSTAT) as 'ACT' for the that particular Transformation (TRAN_ID).

Save for system Copy grouping how we can use

Hi,
In transporting objects for grouping the collected objects (necesaary,iefore,after and befroe ,after i am ok with those) i do not know waht is the use save for system Copy can anybody expalin what it is and how it is useful when collecting the objects.
Thanks & Regards
sathish

Hi,
Before transport the objects, you must set the source system connections, we won't trasport source systems, but I need to tell to my system if I release and Transport the request then where it shoud go and which source system/target system like this , you can check in RSA1>Tools>Assignements of source system.
I'm not getting
what is the difference between for coping and before after collecting please i want some clarification
Thanks

BW Save System Copy (Dev vs Quality)

Hi ,
I have one BW system (FWD) connected to ERP (FED).
I wanted to Connect FWD to ERP quality (FEQ) to load data.
I used transport Connection , SAVE FOR SYSTEM COPY and chose source system FED.
In menu Tools - Conversion of Logical System names, i have set Original Source as FED and Target Source System as FEQ.
After the object collected and imported within FWD, i got the new transfer structure and infopackages under FEQ.
I have completed the testing by running Process chains with source FEQ.
Today, i wanted to revert the above change. I wanted to copy the infopackages back to SED source from SEQ.
I have changed the Tools - Conversion of Logical System names, Original Source as SEQ and Target Source System as SED.
In Transport Connection, SAVE FOR SYSTEM COPY and chose source system FEQ.
Objects collected and and transport imported within FWD.
Unfortunately, the earlier infopackages remains under SEQ, while new technical name infoPakages had been created under SED source. Can i know how the get back the same TECHNICAL name infopackages back to my SED source as the process chain holds it.
Appreciate advice from anyone whos familiar with this issue.
Thanks.

About sap bw system Copy or backup ?(URGENT)

Hi gurus:
     Hi friends,I saw many theads about this subject,and I found many documents,But STILL I can't find the way to solve my problem.
     It is: How to export the objects I created in develop system to a harddisk, then import it to the QA system . Dev to QA with harddisk NOT online?
     And can I backup the whole bw system in the harddisk,and restore the bw system in the qa system istead ? how to backup the bw system ?
All useful reply will assign points
thx

Hi Zegion,
I think the following may help you:
Purpose: Preserves logical system dependent objects for restoration in case of a system copy issue when a logical source system is deleted or deactivated. BW will auto re-generate a lot, but not these objects.
1.     Create on a development system like BWD, because the system is set as a development system in SCC4 and can create and export transports, and will include all objects. A dummy can be used for comparison if the system to be copied is production or test.
a.     If creating on another system, like BW test (BWT) or production, you must first open the system in
   i.     SE06 System Change option modifiable /BIC and /BI0
   ii.     SCC4 client settings set like in BW Development system (BWD)
   iii.     STMS in client 000 from BWD (domain controller)
            1.     Remove BWT from transport path
            2.     Setup new 2-system path BWT-BW? (BWS or virtual system). This creates a ZOUO transport layer, allowing creation of non-local/not $TMP package transports (see complex sample below)
2.     Go to RSA1-Admin workbench, Transport Connection
    a.     Select Object Types
    b.     Set for Grouping-Save for system copy
    c.     Set for Start manual collection
    d.     Set for Display List
3.     Drag and drop source system (select from select objects list and transfer selection) to collection window, example SCEM, SC0CLNT575, DEVCLNT100, SAP_DEMO. I recommend only doing one source system at a time for maximum flexibilityand because the R3 sources are very large.
    a.     Then execute collection Gather dependent objects
    b.     Select each category (mainly Transfer Rules, Transfer structure and InfoPackageswhatever is selected. On each header, right click and select transfer all below
    c.     Validate that there are no objects in the $TMP development package (DevClass). If it is, select the object and change package button to set to ZAWB. (Anything but $TMP (local))
    d.     NOTE- To reset transport connection, select anything on the left frame of the screen to refresh
4.     You are now ready to transportselect the truck icon to create
    a.     Call it Save for System Copy and the source system name
    b.     Go to SE09/SE10 and release it and tasks to the OS level
5.     Cleanup reset STMS and distribute, reset SCC4 and SE06 on BW0/Source BW system
6.     Verify RSA1- Tools mapping of source system names on target BW system (i.e. BWU) for source system of transport (i.e. SC0CLNT575).
7.     Verify RSA1- Modeling-Source system connection checks OK on target system
8.     Manually import transport in STMS Import Queue, extras, other requests, Add (to buffer). Import single with right click or partially loaded truck icon, select options as below:
9.     LAST STEP Validate import logs and activated objects. If there is an error, ensure the link to the new system is active, the RSA1-Tools-Mapping of source system names converts properly from say DEVCLNT100 to TSTCLNT200 (correct frame of reference) and reimport.
if it helpful reward point are appreciated

Error message: You cannot save a completed copy of this form to your computer.

Hello,
I created a PDF form in Acrobat Pro X and i am trying to distribute it by placing it on our shared drive so employees can take it from there and save it to their own computer.
I tested the form with some employees that have Reader. Some can open it, save it, fill it in and submit it and others get this message when opening it:
You cannot save a completed copy of this form to your computer. If you would like a copy for your records please fill it in and print it.
I read some discussions that said to convert it to a binder, that didnt work either. i tried going to the advanced tab and extending the features to reader...nothing works.
Please help.
Thank you!

Thank you for your help George. I placed a ticket with our IT department to have them check the system time on her machine. I'll let you know if it worked.

PI 7.1 system copy (abap+java)

Hello,
We need homogenous copy of PI 7.1 system to an existing system (newly installed PI 7.1). I would like to use database specific option (oracle).I was studying SAP guide for System copy of PI 7.1 and there are slight diff comparing to NW 7.0 double stacks.
Comparing to NW 7.0 double stacks I can't see here step for exporting central instance where application specific filesystem and SDM filesystem was archived (I know SDM is not present in 7.1 anymore). In addition I can see in guide for 7.1 new option for database refresh. However this section also does not describes any needs for taking special care of java filesystem content.Does it mean that I do not need to take special care for java filesytem content anymore on 7.1?
I am bit wondering if it is sufficient for 7.1 just to refresh DB (with restore method for oracle for example) and then perform just adaptation of java IDs in profiles as described in section for database refresh of system copy guide PI 7.1? Will be this way system consistent (consistent abap part and consistent java part)? On NW 7.0 after restore of DB only, java part would be not consistent, is this new in 7.1?
Thanks for your feedback in advance

Hello -
Since you need the complete ABAP and JAVA databases, you will want to use the system copy tool on the installation CD. If you are using a Micrsoft SQL system, you will be able to save yourself some steps. Here is what we did for our MSSQL refresh:
Use sapinst to do a file system export on the source system.
Take back up of source system and use sapinst to restore it to target system.
Process
1. Detach the database files from the source system database or create a backup and copy the files
to the target system.
2. Attach the database files or restore the backup of the source database on the target database server.
3. Run SAPinst to install the target system by choosing the following on the Welcome screen:
<Your SAP system> Software Life-Cycle Options System Copy Target System <system variant>
<technical stack> .
Let me know if you have more questions or if you need more information. I can try and answer a few if you are trying to use ORACLE and UNIX / LINUX. Thanks! - Will S.

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!

>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.

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.

Cannot save a completed copy of adobe forms

Hi experts,
i was developing a simple Adobe form with a drop down list. When saving that form on local system ad then opening it , I tried changing the valve in drop down list it gives me a pop-up as
"You cannot save the completed copy of this form on your computer."
is there any setting to be donw to the form.
thanks in advance,

I guess you have already found the problem: you cannot save the file if your reader rights are down == your form has not been generated as interactive and no licence has been attached. Otto

System copy - CUA how to keep (merge) some of the old target system users ?

Hi,
can anyone suggest if the following is possible and if so, the best way to enable the following within a CUA landscape :-
Standard SAP System Copy of Production to QA.
Cleanup of "Production" user master records in the QA system to remove users not required in QA.
Resend a set of test user id's which existed in the pre-system copy QA system (and still in the QA CUA master system) to the newly copied QA system to merge with the cleaned up QA user master.
Re-link the new QA system with the QA CUA master system to transfer the "merged" list of QA users into the QA CUA.
I've simulated the above on a test server but the process of sending down the sub-set of old QA test id's from the CUA master (using report RSCCUSND) does not create the users in the QA client even though the report itself appears to have transferred the users. Checking SU01 on the target CUA client shows no user has been created and there are no idocs passed from Master --> Client.
Other than either exporting the QA users to a transport before the system copy (for re-import after the system copy to replace the copy of the production user masters with the old QA list), or using the "production" users in QA following the system copy I can't seem to find a way of merging some of the old QA users with a cleaned up list of production users in the QA system post system copy.
If anyone knows of a way to do what I'm suggesting then please let me know.
Brian.

Hi Brian,
I don't think there is an option, directly.
However what I would do is.
Before System Copy
On the QA Side:
1) Create a new client in the QA and only copy user masters in the empty client.
2) In this new client, keep only those users I need after client copy.
3) Take help from ABAP guys to include all usr* table entries (with MANDT field selected only for the new client) into a transport request and save it for later use.
On the Production Side:
1) Export user masters of the production client
2) Create a new client in Production and re-import the user masters
3) Work on the new client to cleanse the unwanted users.
4) Re-export the new user master of the new client and save it for later use.
After System Copy
1) Import the exported user masters from the production server , thus overwriting the client with the users selectively chosen from the production user master.
2) Import the transport request to merge the older users from the QA.
I know this is a crude way.. anyways..
Hope that helps,
Siddhesh

Hello Abdul
Refresh from Offline backup (AQC from APC) let's say AQC is quality and APC is production
Pre-processing Activity:
Verifications:
1. Verify the last offline backup in the source system
/oracle/<sourceSID>/sapbackup/back<sourceSID>.log
2. Verify that both the source and target systems are at the same Oracle level (which is already the case
between APC and AQC)
3. It is recommended that an off-line backup be taken of the target system before starting this process, in
case of fall back.
4. Confirm there is enough space in the target (AQC) file systems to contain the data from the source
system this is required as we may have to copy the files from Production to quality.
/oracle/SID/sapdata* folders should be having little more space as compared to the source filesystem.
5. Check access to SAP* for APC (000 and 400) and also for AQC (000 and 400)
6. Check other passwords such as <sid>adm and ora<sid>
7. Server : <source server name>
User : ora<sid>
> sqlplus u201C/ as sysdbau201D
> alter database backup controlfile to trace
> exit
In /oracle/SID/saptrace/usertrace, the last trace (check the time) is the script for recreating the control
file. You will need to edit it. Please rename the trace file to ld<TARGET_SID>.sql and send the file to the
target system /oracle/SID
Edit the Script:
vi ld<SAPsid>.sql
Delete or comment out all lines at the beginning of the file before STARTUP NOMOUNT which is kept.
Change old controlfile creation statement at the beginnig of the controlfile:
Old line:     create controlfile reuse database <SAPsid>   NOresetlogs archivelog;
          change to
New line:     create controlfile   set   database   <SAPsid> resetlogs archivelog;
replace all occurences of string <source_SAPsid> by <SAPsid> in each line where <source_SAPsid>
appears
:g / <source_SAPsid> / s / <source_SAPsid> / <SAPsid> /g
example:
:g/P10/s/P10/T21/g
Delete the following lines a the end of the script:
               RECOVER DATABASE;
               ALTER SYSTEM ARCHIVE LOG ALL;
               ALTER DATABASE OPEN;
8. Get from the Prod system (APC) the .aff and backDPR.log and copy them on AQC.
(/oracle/<SID>/sapbackup)
Copy      the files to /instkits/SID/. And after we can go on target source server and copy them from
/instkits/SID to the /oracle/SID/sapbackup/. With the good owner and permission
9. Lock all the users in client 400 except Basis and post system message.
Target system data collection (On AQC -400):
1.     SM59 Expand all the trees, print by choosing: ->System ->List ->Print
i)     Compare list to R/3 connections on source system. Record details for any that will need to be
recreated on target system.
2.     SCC4 Record all client settings. -> Tableview ->Print ->Standard List -> List -> Print
Make sure you understand the columnsu2026
3.     SE06 Record system change options
4.     RZ10 Record the instance profile settings for: rdisp/wp-no-btc and rdisp/max_wprun_time
5.     STMS Record current transport routes. ->Overview -> Transport Routes ->           manually
expand all trees -> system ->list ->print
6.     Request customer to provide u201Ccatch-upu201D list of transports to be applied to system after refresh
(QA and Sandbox systems).
7.          RZ04 Record current work process set-up. Highlight each operation mode and click
instances/op modes button.
i)     Print with ->System ->List ->Print
8.     SAP License Ensure the SAP license information is available. If not on-hand, logon target
system as <sid>adm and enter command: saplicense u2013show. This information is also available on OSS.
9.     TSM Nodename View /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64/dsm.sys on source and target system.
Record the nodename entries. These will be <SID>SAP or server names.
11.       Take printer Export through SPAD and save it locally to desktop->SPAD
12.        Take Export of User Master from the client 400 through SCC8 target system is AQC , so that it
may be re-imported through STMS.
Note the Transport number here also verify the transport exist in the queue.
DB Restore from offline backup from APC:
1. Stop SAP on AQC -> Login as aqcadm -> stopsap
2. Change the TSM node on AQC-> cd /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64
        ls -lrt
       vi /usr/tivoli/tsm/client/api/bin64/dsm.sys
Change it to point to APC, comment the AQC Node.
Post Restore Acitivity:
1. Stop Database
Delete Old controlfile
rm /oracle/AQC/sapdata1/system_1/cntrl/*
rm /oracle/AQC/saparch/cntrl/*
rm /oracle/AQC/origlogA/cntrl/*
2. Re-create the controlfile and then after that start the database
User : ora<sid>
> cd
> sqlplus u201C/ as sysdbau201D
> @ld<target_sid>.sql
> alter database open resetlogs;
3. Change the sapr3 password
Server : <target server name>
User : ora<sid>
Temporarily, we have to change the sapr3 password to the default password. With SAPBA, change this
user password to pass.
4. Test the connection:
Server : <target server name>
User : <sid>adm
> R3trans u2013d
It should have a return code of 0000
5. Reasign tempfile
alter tablespace psaptemp add tempfile '/oracle/AQC/sapdata1/temp_1/temp.data1'
size 6020M reuse autoextend on next 20971520 maxsize 10000M;
alter database rename global_name to AQC.WORLD;
drop user OPS$APCADM cascade;

create user OPS$ORAAQC identified externally default tablespace psapdnausr
temporary tablespace psaptemp;
grant connect, unlimited tablespace, SAPDBA to OPS$ORAAQC;
grant connect, unlimited tablespace, SAPDBA to OPS$AQCADM;
7. Change the instance profile to stop all the background processing
To be sure that no production batch are executing, set rdisp/wp_no_btc to 0
posprocessing:
8. Startsap
9. Run Transaction SICK (as sap*)
10. Installing license through the tcode: slicense
While logged in as 000/sap*/using password of APC system

Source system changed to BI instead of R/3 after system copy

Hi All,
We have done system copy of R/3 and BW from production to test.
After doing the post process the R/3 test source system in BI become as business ware house system and showing under the tree of BI.
Due to that all data sources are not active. Could any one help me in this case.
Thanks & Regards
Srini

Dear Srinivas,
You have to restore the Source system connection in BI. There are few steps you have to do before that.
you have to make both R/3 and BI system as modifiable and do the procedures as mentioned in the SAP Notes 1087980.
Once these both steps were done, please right click on your source system connection in BI.
please validate all the passwords there and it will navigate to R/3 SM59 RFC connection. There you have to check all the credentials whether it is correct or not. once it done. plz save it and get back to BI source system connection.
Replicate the meta data and activate the data sources and transfer structures.
After all these steps, right click once again on your source system connection and click Check.
Here source system connection will be OK.
Hope this would give you clear pic on your issue.

Heterogeneous system copy. Error in SMIGR_CREATE_DDL

Hello!
I perform a heterogeneous system copy of RHEL5/Oracle11/ERP6/0 > RHEL6/MaxDB/ERP6.0
I use the "System Copy Guide for SAP Systems Based on NW 7.0 SR3 ABAP + Java". At the stage "4.2 Generating DDL" statements is a problem. I'm doing "Call transaction SE38 and run the program SMIGR_CREATE_DDL."
But i get error:
Runtime Errors         DATASET_NOT_OPEN
Exception              CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE
Date and Time          20.09.2011 12:16:01
Short text
     File "/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST" is not open.
What happened?
     Error in the ABAP Application Program
     The current ABAP program "CL_SMIGR_DDL==================CP" had to be
      terminated because it has
     come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
What can you do?
     Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
     To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
     administrator.
     Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
     at and manage termination messages, and you can also
     keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE', was not
     caught in
    procedure "WRITE_DDL_TO_FILE" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    When accessing the file "/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST", the system recognized that
     this file is
    not open. Therefore, the file cannot be accessed.
How to correct the error
    Before the first access, the file must be opened using the ABAP language
     element "OPEN DATASET '/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST'" and after the last access,
     it must be
    closed using the language element "CLOSE DATASET '/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST'".
    If the error occurred in your own ABAP program or in an SAP
    program you modified, try to remove the error.
    If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
    find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
    If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
    keywords:
    "DATASET_NOT_OPEN" "CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE"
   "CL_SMIGR_DDL==================CP" or "CL_SMIGR_DDL==================CM003"
   "WRITE_DDL_TO_FILE"
   If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
   notification to SAP, include the following information:
   1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
      To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
   (Unconverted)".
I forgot something to do?

Make sure the user <sid>adm is permitted to write to that directory.

Homogeneous system copy on iseries

Hello All,
We are planning to refresh our R/3 development system (SID: R3D) by doing homogeneous system copy using production data (SID: R3P).
There are couple of open transports in development system and I donu2019t want to overwrite those in the process of system copy.
also I donu2019t want to over write users idu2019s and passwords.
When i goggled, I found a procedure to execute a User Master Export SCC8 (client export) for profile: SAP_USER.
After creating a transport with users master datau2026 should I copy the transport co and data files to some other location, so that it doesn't get over written?
Should i save all CO and data files of transports from u201CR3Du201D into a separate folder and reimport into one by one after reconfiguring TMS?
Is there any procedure to save all variants in the system and apply the same after system copy?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hello rk_007,
but I do not see a real solution for your issues except the users ... SAP_USERS is ok and can be used at any time. All the rest will delete ALL tables and replace it with the copy.
So, when you do a system refresh from R3P to R3D and then replace with SAP_UCSV ALL application data will be deleted ;-((
You cannot conserve open transports as well. You have to close them, and reimport later on again and open new ones for the missing functionality,
So, the process is a bit more complicated in a 2-system landscape as you might think.
Would be a client export of R3P perhaps sufficient ?
The versions of ABAPs are lost as well ... you should backup them before deleting R3D.

System Copy - Copy parameters afterwards

Hi
After doing a system copy from our Production system to our QA system, I now have the PROD parameters in QA.
How do I copy and rename these to QA.
Do I need to copy the files at the OS level and rename them. Then import them into SAP from RZ10.
Many thanks,
Marie

Go to RZ10 and delete the production profiles and save it. Then based on current instances-> generate. The QA ones will be generated automatically if they were not moved.
You copied just the databse over right? the filesystems were not touched right?
also, go to rz04-> instances/operation modes and delete prod instance, save and then generate new one again and save.
You also have to dop the ops$adm user from production at database level and create QA one.
let me know of u need anything else.
Regards
Cyrus
