Source System in an ABAP Landscape

We are relatively new to SAP.  Back when we initially architected the landscape we had many consultants in, including several Platinum consultants from SAP.  At the time they emphasized the special nature of the "source system" in an ABAP landscape, and how it should never be refreshed and how we should not change which system in considered the source in our landscape.  "Once the source always the source."
Now we are being asked to change the source system, but we do not have the background as to why the source system is so special and why it should not be refreshed or changed.
Would you be willing to share your opinion on the matter?  Pros/Cons/Costs of Changing/Costs of Refreshing.
Thank you very much.

There is a SAP Note  130906  for this. Pasting few lines from note for your referance. Please ref Note for details.
Symptom
You want to copy the versions of the repository objects from one R/3 system into another, for example because you are planning to copy your production system to your development system.
Such a procedure does not correspond to the strategy recommended by SAP, to always retain the development system.

  • How to Stop at Source System's Abap Code from BI Infopackage Trigger

    Hi Experts,
    I have enahanced 2 fields to some standard data source, that fields data is comiong fine to RSA3 in Source system.
    i am not getting 2 fields data to BI  PSA, but that 2 fields data  i am getting at in RSA3 Tcode  source system.
    i have tried all the ways to get data to BI PSA, but no luck.
    so, while running infopacke from BI i need to stop  at  Source System's Abap code where i have wriiten the code for those 2 fields.
    so, please any  one can explain, how to stop at source system's Abap Code once i  trigger infopackage from BI.
    Regards,
    Nagaraju K.

    Hi,
    which data source on your working?
    master data or transaction data
    enter the TCODE- CMOD
    choose the project
    select the funciton exit - EXIT_SAPLRSAP_001 - Transaction data
                                        EXIT_SAPLRSAP_002 - master data attr
                                        EXIT_SAPLRSAP_003 - mster data text
                                        EXIT_SAPLRSAP_004 - master data hier.
    choose the include program - ZXRSAU01.
    go to source code tab -> go to change mode -> find the code will start form here
    EX- : when " ZLIS_13_VDITM
    if not required don't put break-point .
    just comment it code.
    Thanks,

  • Mixed (Java & ABAP w/different sources) System Copy Failed- NW 7.0 SR3/SP14

    Hello SAP Friends! Our NW admin did a dual stack system copy where the ABAP server came from system 1 and the Java server came from system 2. This worked fine for ABAP (duh it was installed first), but the Java system copy was a disaster. the server started but many key services did not.
    Why?
    Many of the configuration entries were not generated properly. For example, a new, unknown SID was created, and many entries referenced System 1 (the ABAP source, not even the Java source). We were able to find and fix some incorrect config entries, but we still couldn't get all of the services we needed to work.
    I think NW is so complicated that such a configuration is probably impossible, but maybe I am wrong.
    Does anyone have tips? Or can confirm that this would never work?
    The current plan is to install the Java Server from scratch as an add-in, which is less effort than searching through all the config files without any certainty that it will work. Hopefully it will work.
    Many thanks in advance.

    Hi Matt,
    What kind of infos are you looking for? I didn't perform the copy, have just been trying to figure out how to get all of the Java stack's services to start properly. As far as I know, it was done using the standard System Copy wizard. The ABAP server was done as a central instance and then the Java server was copied and installed as a java add-in.
    I have asked the admin to post the details to this thread, but it would be helpful if you could mention what types of info and details you are looking for.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    John

  • Finding messages sent through ABAP proxy in the source system

    Hi All,
    I have a Proxy to HTTP scenario, wherein the messages are landing up in error at reciever for some value in the payload.
    I tried to look for the messages in XI, hwever they have been successful thru it and are deleted now.
    Also I tried to look for the messages in the sender R/3 system in SXI_MONITOR, hwever i dont have the access to this tcode there.
    Is there any other way these messages can be looked for in the R/3 system?
    Regards,
    Diptee

    Hi All,
    I could not find the messages in the source system, they seem to have got deleted (as they are old).
    Also i was trying to achieve the requried in the production environment, and so needed to know if the messages can be looked for by any means other than the report 'Monitor for Processes XML messages'.
    Thanks a lot.

  • What are the changes to be done on BW end during hardware change of source system?

    Hello Gurus,
    There is some hardware changes happening and I need help in certain things which I need to do from BW point of view.  First of all, I have attached a figure showing my system landscape.  I would kindly request you to go though the fig first.
    For QA, initially we were using AG3 as the source system, now they have made the hardware changes, made a system copy of AG3 into the new system AEQ.  We have connected our BW QA system to this new system AEQ.  Now when I check the system, there are no data in set up tables (I am using SD and MM), but there are data in tables.  But when I replicate data sources from AEQ to BW QA, the existing transformations and DTPs will disappear. So, that left me with 2 options-
    1. Either transport old transformation and DTP from BW DEV to BW QA
    2. Or create new transformation and DTP in BW QA system.
    Can you experts please suggest me what should be the solution?
    Also, please note that, the basis team started the hardware changes with ECC QA system for some reason.  Once ECC QA is fine, they are planning to make the changes in ECC DEV system (from AG2 to AED).  Currently, AG2 is connected to BW DEV and AEQ is connected to BW QA.
    Can you please suggest me whether there will be any issue if we opt to transport transformation and DTP from BW DEV to BW QA when BW DEV is still connected to old source system?  Or, is there any other easy way to sort this out? Please suggest?
    Thanks a lot
    Rakesh

    Hi,
    1. Either transport old transformation and DTP from BW DEV to BW QA?
    Yes, better to transport from bw dev to bw qa
    2. Or create new transformation and DTP in BW QA system?
    at BW Quality, creation may not be possible. Better to transport from bw dev to bwq.
    or use standard abap program to activate transformations and dtp.
    When changes are applying at source then you just need to take care the delta queues
    clear all queues by running related V3 jobs and delta info packs. make them as 0 count.
    once basis team was done changes later try to check your delta loads at bwq .
    Thanks

    Hi SUSUSU,
    The dump is related to temp table space issue.check the space for PSATEMP table.
    Use tcode DB02 to check the table spaces, in the tree diaplayed on you left. try to see the % used for your ODS & FACT tablespaces. Incase the % are too high like 99% etc, get in touch with you BASIS team.
    Request your basis team to increase the PSATEMP table space.
    Or
    Decrease the data packet size and run the info package.
    to decreae the packet size -- in the IP screen menu --> schedular -->Datasource setting for sending data --> there change the parameter Maximum size of a data packet in kByte.
    down you can find the area to enter the data packet size .
    for ex if it is 20000 decrease it to 10000 and run the info package

  • Multiple rows in BI Infocube/or DSO for one row in source system

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a typical scenario where in I have a ztable in R/3 system and it contains some custome transaction data.
    The business scenario wants it to split into multiple records in BI ( ofcourse keys for each records in BI would be unique). Either infocube or DSO can be used to store the data in BI.
    Is it possible to do that. As far as my knowledge goes( I have limited BI exposure) one record from source system ( read row) is transformed into one record ( row) in BI in simple transformation.
    Please give me some rough idea if its possible how can we achieve it.
    I know we can write an ABAP program and create a ztable to do it and use the ztable as source for incube/dso. But I want to use this as last option.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    An ODS will be better.
    Use a start routine.
    data-package --> package2
    create your own package with your rules.
    update.insert.modify.append....
    package2 --> data_package
    and from 1 row, you create n row as your rules would like..

  • Source system assignment while transporting to quality

    Hi Guys,
    I have the following landscape.
    I have created 2 source system ECCDEV and CRMDEV for my BIDEV.
    Now I wish to do transport to Quality box and i want to know what should be the source system assignment , I should maintain in rsa1->transport connection -> conversion of logical system name.
    When I maintain ECCDEV  -
    > ECCQUA
    I get the error : ECCQUA entry does not exist in TBDLS.
    Do I have to maintain source system ECCQUA(Quality) in BIDEV(Development) itself?
    -Amit

    Hi Rakesh,
    Let me know if my understanding is correct.
    In DEV BI, I create a connection to DEV ECC.
    Also, I create source system ID's for source system.
    In the QUA BI, I create a connection with QUA ECC.
    and assign source system connection (source and target) i.e. DEVECC and QUAECC.
    Then I transport requests(activated datasources) from DEVECC to QUAECC and replicate the datasource in QUABI.
    Please Confirm.
