Server Migration check list

Dear BW Experts,
We are going to do an SAP BW(3.5 Version) offline for backup (from existing server), hardware migration(new server), followed by domain name changes (IP Address Change). New Server will be brought up for Oracle / BW re-configurations to update the new domain name. Please help me to prepare the migration check list & some documents about BW migration(Not hardware level, Domain Name & IP Address) . Thanks.
Regards,
RR.

Hi,
Points to be kept, (not a version migration) Migrating from one system to other
1. Review the objects in both the systems and ensure they dont clash or overlap.
2. May be they had different source systems and you need to carefully look at all the source system dependent objects and re assign the source system.
3. Performing transports will be the one of the options for the move; in that case collect the objects in logical order starting with the info objects, data targets, info sources, update rules finally queries, roles, workbooks.
4. Review the master data and also the ODS to ensure the data dont overwrite; better to have a system identifier for the master data objects.
5. For the transaction data, approach will be to go with the EDW approach
6. For the same of reconciliation purposes, suggest to keep the Regional system, if exists, within the same region system separate and for reporting purposes, use infosets and multi cubes rather than loading data to the same data targets.
For Version Migration ,Pls chk this links;

  • OS Migration check list

    Hi All,
    I have to migrate my ECC 6.0 landscape from Solaris 5.10 to AIX 6.1.4.
    I want to check the compatibilty issues if any for this combination.
    My Database is Oracle : 10.2.0.4.0.
    How can i check in PAM,i m not able to understand.
    Regards,
    GE

    Hi,
    I would recommend to you not only checking the PAM, you should check also the AIX installation guide and the latest related notes in order to find issues detected on you target system (AIX/ORACLE).
    Download the latest migration tools (R3load, R3szchk and R3ldctl) before you start the export on the source system.
    You should migrate at least one system before the PRD in order to identify issues.
    According to your DB size and availability, backup and restore times, network bandwith,  etc you should evaluate the techniques to do in order to decrease the export/import downtime specially on PRD.
    Hope it helps.
    Best regards from Peru.

  • SAP BW on HANA DB Migration - Technical & Functional Assessment Check List Required

    Hello Experts,
    Typically, Before we start SAP BW on HANA DB migration, we would certainly need Technical & Functional Assessment Check List. As per knowledge, to execute BW on HANA DB migration, we would need HANA Admin and Developer, BASIS and BW consultants.
    Can some one share me what exactly these people does in Technical & Functional Assessment ?.
    What could be the duration ?.
    Does this people require to login into the system's physically and perform any activities ?
    Please share me details.
    Thanks,
    HA

    Hi,
    with the perferred (and recommeded) database migration option (DMO) as part of the SUM the need of these Functional Assessment Check List might obsolete, as a lot of manual tasks are integrated into the automated process, which were only available as lists in the past.
    For an Overview, see - Migration BW on HANA - Update 2014 | SCN
    For a detailed step by step, see - SAP First Guidance - Migration BW on HANA using the DMO option in SUM

  • BAM Cluster setup - issue with whole server migration configuration

    HI,
    We are working on a SOA , BAM , BPM Cluster setup on OEL VMs
    With Admin server running on Host1 and Soa_server1, BAM_server1 , Host2 - Soa_server2 , Bam_server2.
    We were successfully able to setup clustering for Soa without using the webTier utilities in our environment, Just by adding entries in the /etc/hosts file.
    Followed the document - except for web tier setup
    http://www.namredlek.nl/orasoa/InstallSOASuite11gOnCluster_v1.pdf
    1)     Installed Weblogic 11g.
    2)     Soa 11g.
    3)     Domain creation
    4) Configured Node manager
    5) Soa Clustering completed successfully.
    6) Domain up and running with SOA_Cluster up and running.
    7)     Extended the domain with BAM
    The issue revolves when we are doing teh Migration configurations from the console for BAM and we restart BAM server we get an error -
    Apr 14, 2011 2:30:35 AM weblogic.nodemanager.server.Handler handleStart
    WARNING: Exception while starting server 'bam_server1'
    java.io.IOException: Command '/oracle/Shared_MWHome/user_projects/domains/SOA_Domain/bin/server_migration/wlsifconfig.sh -addif eth0 192.168.1.6 255.255.255.0 ' returned an unsuccessful exit code '1'. Check NM logs for script output.
    and Bam server goes to Failed Not Restartable state.

    The error is clearly out there
    java.io.IOException: Command '/oracle/Shared_MWHome/user_projects/domains/SOA_Domain/bin/server_migration/wlsifconfig.sh -addif eth0 192.168.1.6 255.255.255.0 ' returned an unsuccessful exit code '1'. Check NM logs for script output.
    This error occurs due to a failure in adding the virtual IP of BAM server to the network interface you have specified in nodemanager.properties.
    You need to check whether you have specified the correct interface and subnet mask in node manager.properties as below :
    The fourth step is to edit the Node Manager's properties file. This file is called nodemanager.properties
    and is located in the ORACLE_BASE/product/osbmw/wlserver_10.3/common/nodemanager directory.
    For server migration to work properly, you need to add the properties listed below:
    Interface=eth0
    NetMask=255.255.255.0
    UseMACBroadcast=true
    · Interface
    This property specifies the interface name for the floating IP (for example, eth0).
    · NetMask
    This property specifies the net mask for the interface for the floating IP. The net mask should the
    same as the net mask on the interface; 255.255.255.0 is used as an example in this document.
    · UseMACBroadcast
    This property specifies whether or not to use a node's MAC address when sending ARP packets,
    that is, whether or not to use the -b flag in the arping command.

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you got error when communicating to the server.
    This happens when crawler is not able to connect to the server. Make sure server name is correct. Couple of steps to troubleshoot it
    You should be able to ping the server from the server having crawl component. Make sure there is an entry for the server in the host file under c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc folder.
              Ping <servername>
          2.  You should be able to connect to the server using telnet command
    Telnet< servername> <port number>
    More information:
    Troubleshooting of FAST Search Configuration
    If the issue still exists, you can delete the old search application and recreate from the beginning.
    You can also reset the index and do a full crawl after.
    Here is a similar thread for your reference:

  • Check list field values using LINQ

    I have to check if the CURRENT USER is already in the list USERS by comparing his AccountName to the list field ACCOUNTNAME.
    If the USER is on the list I have to check if the field IsFollower is YES or NO and change it according to some conditions.
    I think LINQ would be the correct way of doing this but I have no clue how to do that.
    Any ideas pls, thanks

    Hi,
    Yes, you can query the list using LINQ.
    You need to get the SPList Object firstly, and then you can query list item value using LINQ.

  • 10.3 Whole Server Migration

    Hi,
    I need some enlightenments from all. Here is my setup (in Windows 2003 R2)
    2 physical Server, PS A, PS B (PS: physical server)
    PS A contains, 1 Admin Server, 1 Managed server
    PS B contains, 1 Managed Server
    I've done the necessary clustering setup and tested its working, using node manager (nmenroll, conseus, etc). now what I'm trying to perform is to try out whole sever migration.
    I've found out the script, wlsifconfig.cmd (found under %wls_home%\user_projects\domains\abc\bin\server_migration\, contains some linux command such as grep and rm. Workaround installed grep command for windows and replace rm with del.
    I've shut down all managed servers and configure the managed servers to be whole server migration ready, set the node manager properties etc. I start the managed server 1 in PS A, PS A contains the floating IP upon starting. I checked using ipconfig, the floating IP is added. Then I tried to start managed server 2 through the admin console in PS A. Here comes the problem, managed server 2 also add in the floating IP which resulted in windows IP conflict. I'm not sure what went wrong, as of now i suspect is the wlsifconfig.cmd is the root of the problem. Therefore writing in to ask help from all. (Could it be im using 10.3 which does not support whole server migration?)
    Best Regards

    This appears to be working on Windows using 10.0.3 Server. For the lack of step-by-step tutorial, my best suggestion is to read Node Manager Administrator's Guide chapter 1,2,3,4,6 and "Using Clusters" chapter 7. I ran into many error messages and had to apply several hacks from google results.
    The whole server migration design does not appear to be too useful though.
    I have the whole server migration configured on two hosts.
    1. Machine A has AdminServer and M1 (runs a pinned application and happens to be assigned a cluster master)
    2. Machine B has node manager and M2.
    3. M1 is set up to be migratable to A and B
    I shutdown Machine A, but nothing is migrated. From the document, it seems both cluster master and AdminServer need to be running in order for migration to happen. This is still a single point of failure.

    what's wrong here, any hints?

    Hi A. Bloise,
    Based on your description ,we need to verify that the type and version of SSMA Extension Pack. Assume that you install SSMA for Oracle Extension Pack, I recommend you check the following things.
    1. Make sure that the setup file of SSMA for Oracle Extension Pack is not corrupted. You can download it from
    Microsoft Download Center.
    2. Make sure that your computer meets the following requirements for the SSMA for Oracle Extension Pack.
        •SQL Server 2005 or higher.
        •Microsoft Windows Installer 3.1 or a later version.
        •Oracle Client 9.0 or a later version, and connectivity to the Oracle databases that you want to migrate.
        •The SQL Server Browser service must be running during installation.
    3. Make sure that  the account used to install the extension pack, is a member of the sysadmin server role on the instance of SQL Server.
    If this does not work, please contact with SSMA support team for further help:

  • Whole server migration

    Hi,
    I am setting up a cluster with two managed serves on different machines. In order to setup whole server migration, do I need to have third machine? In many of the examples i have seen they say when MACHINE1 is down, it can be migrated to MACHINE2..how is this possible if both managed servers listening on the same port? can you please let me know if I need to have third machine? if so, do I need to transfer the domain data via pack and unpack to third machine as well?
    Thanks.

    Hi
    Since your 2 managed servers are on 2 different physical machines, yes, they can share the same port number. Remember they had different host numbers. If they are on same physical machine, naturally you will have 2 different unique port numbers. Now coming to failover, generally for any Cluster Domain, in the front you will have some sort of Load Balancer. The typical example is Apache HTTP Server as Load Balancer. We install and configure apache and edit httpd.conf file to give backend weblogic servers. For example one line could be like this:
    ClusterAddress: host1:port1,host2:port2 (Ex: host1:8001,host2:8001). So it is Apache that takes care of Failover and load balancing. If host is dead or server1 on host1 is crashed, apache will remove this server from its internal list (till it is back and up and running. So all next requiests will go to host2:8001.
    This has nothing to do with same or diff port numbers. All that matters is, port numbers are unique if servers are on same physical machine.
    This means, there is no need for any other 3rd machine.
    If your question is something else, please give more details.
    Thanks
