Special Considerations about BPC on HANA System Copy

Hello experts,
We will do a system copy for BPC on HANA from DEV to QAS (system installation with system copy method), are there any special considerations about the copy.
Addtionally, can I say that the system copy for BPC and for BW are the same (both follow the system copy guide based on SAP NetWeaver)? Are the follow-up activites the same for both?
Thanks & Best Regards,
Tong Ning

Hi Tong,
If nothing has been changed in DEV after installation then backup & copy should be fine. I was thinking that you want to move custom development that way; recommended way for it is Transport system.
Not sure if this will be faster than just installing everything in QAS.
I'd think that the only follow-up activities would be change of references: to itself and to other systems. If active BW is in same box then it's more to change; if BW only serves as a platform for BPC then it's only SM59 and SPRO.

Gersh

BW Powered On HANA - System Copy Process

Dear HANA Gurus,
Now we are on HANA 1.0 SPS03 Rev.21, and we also have a BW 7.3 SP05, running on Windows 2008 64 bit server, on Oracle 11.2.
We want to migrate the BW to HANA DB. Refering to note 1600929 (which is version in revision), the Export method with system copy (using HANA special options) seems fine.
However, not sure how the Import will be done in HANA? We will be creating a new BW on Windows again, and if it is system import it'll again create an Oracle based instance!
When and where it migrates to HANA DB?
Regards
Manish Madhav

Hello,
HANA conversion is heterogeneous system copy process (DB migration). You will export system on Oracle and then you will import into HANA. Of course you need to have proper CDs.
Here comes important question - did you signed up for SAP rampup? BW on HANA is not yet in Global Availability and only some customers are allowed to participate.
You can find required CDs at this location:
http://service.sap.com/swdc

If you cannot see these CDs - then you are not part of rampup and you need to wait until Global Availability.
If you can see these CDs - then you need to download them and use them to perform import.
I did not yet have opportunity to perform conversion myself (we still need to prepare our system to meed the requirements) but from SAP guides it is apparent that SAP HANA database is installed on one server (appliance) while ABAP is sitting on second server. (In other words - you should not have ABAP on same server as HANA.)
Also note that only ABAP stack can run on HANA.
And installation guide (here is for Windows):
http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700001240932011E.pdf
In a standard system, all main instances except the SAP HANA database instance run on a single host.
See system copy guide for details:
http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700001299452010E.pdf
SAP HANA database is available for SAP NetWeaver 7.3 ABAP only.

Some concern about Live cache Homogeneous System copy

Hi All,
I need to do the Homogeneous system copy SCM 5.0 / Live cache 7.6.00 on AIX. Following are the Source and target System SID for Live cache. Moreover I had check the respective SAP note 457425 and 877203 but still having some concern.
Source System
Live cache SID           =      SCD
Live cache user ID      =      SAPSCD
Live Database instant software owner = scdadm
Live cache Data Size      = 8 GB ( 4 Data volume / 2 GB each / auto extend off)
Target System
Live cache SID           =      SCT
Live cache user ID      =      SAPSCT
Live Database instant software owner = sctadm
Live cache Data Size      = 4 GB ( 2 Data volume / 2 GB each / auto extend off)
For same I having following concern.
1.     Since there is difference between source system and target system size / data volume number what action I need to take on target system. Do I need to add two more data volume into the target system?
2.     After complication of database restore on target the system do I need to change the Live cache user ID (i.e. SAPSCD to SAPSCT)?
or
It is just fine to change the log on data in Integration tab in LC10.
Please let me know some more information on same.
Thanks,
Harshal

Hello Harshal,
"1. Since there is difference between source system and target system size / data volume number what action I need to take on target system. Do I need to add two more data volume into the target system?"
Please pay attention to the SAP note :: 457425    Homogenous liveCache copy using backup/restore
Please update the thread withy additional information ::
What is the version of the source liveCache? What is the version of the target liveCache?
How much data do you have in the source liveCache?
And you need to have the size data area of the target liveCache to be able to restore the databackup created in the source liveCache.
So by the size of the data volumes in the source liveCache, it's not clear how much data you have.
"2. After complication of database restore on target the system do I need to change the Live cache user ID (i.e. SAPSCD to SAPSCT)?"
Please review the SAP note 877203.
You could rename the user SAPSCD to SAPSCT using the SAP note 877203 steps
OR
You could have the user SAPSCD in the target liveCache as Standard liveCache user &
After you run the homogenous liveCache copy using backup/restore procedure you need
to change the LCA/LDA/LEA connection with user SAPSCD on target system and
set the user SAPSCD to the user containers ( please see the SAP note 616555 for more details )
Before to restart the liveCache in LC10.
PS: Please pay attention about the value of the liveCache parameter _UNICODE.
      What are the values of this parameter in the source & target liveCache?
Thank you and best regards, Natalia Khlopina

System Copy vs Client copy

Hi,
I have to choose between a copy with or whitout data from PRD system to DEV.
I'm little confused about the difference between System Copy and Client Copy.
Which is that includes a copy of data also?
Then, System copy = Refresh system?
Please, reply me directly, without post link.....
Many thanks.
Claudia

Hi,
Please do an SDN search of these terms.
Also read SAP Note 886102 for all system copies scenarios.

How to find old hostname remained in new system after system copy

Hello all,
Let me ask you about changing hostname during system copy.
I've finished homogeneous system copy. I changed its hostname and did not change its SID.
I know we should check and modify RFC destination(SM59), logon group(SMLG), SAPconnect(SCOT), operation mode(SM04) and instance profiles after system copy with changing hostname.
But my customer also used hostname for variant. I overlooked.
Then they require me to provide how to find old hostname in whole system ...
Do you have any good tools or idea? Any advice would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Ikue

Hi,
If u have not deleted the inactive profiles in the tcode RZ10, you can find the old hostname in the instance profile.
Also if u have not deleted the entries in the tables TPFET and TPFHT, u can find the old hostname here in these tables also.

SYSTEM COPY/ SYTEM REFRESH

Hi,
Can any one plz explain me the steps to perform System Copy/ Refresh for XI system
Thanks in advance.

Hi kobby
Client Copy:
Note that SAP delivers the software with standard clients 000 and 001. You may not work in client 000. However, SAP recommends that you begin R/3 implementation by creating a new client as a copy of client 000.
Transactions used:
SCC4--> To create a client
SCCL-->To do client copy.
Types of Client Copy:
Local client copy between clients in the same R/3 System
Remote client copy between clients in different R/3 Systems
Client transport between clients of different R/3 Systems
System Refresh:
A system refresh is in most cases rebuilding the quality assurance or acceptance system from a backup of the productive system. More accurate test data is made available in the quality assurance system for the developers and customizing consultants to test their ongoing developments and roll-outs.
The specified item was not found.
For system copy and system refresh u can view this link for clarity:

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.

How to copy the bookmarks which are created in SAP BW 7.3 to New SAP BW on Hana System?

Hi,
We have requirement of moving the Bookmarks from SAP BW 7.3 system to New SAP BW on Hana System.
Please let me know if it is possible? If possible how to do it.?
Thanks,
tms

Hi TMS,
Are you talking about Web template bookmark or QueryDesigner bookmark?
If yes then in both the cases its is stored in your client machine as a browser favourite.This has nothing to do with HANA or BW system.So you can transfer browser favourite file from one system to other.
If you are talking about in anyother context please be precise and more elaborate .
Thanks & Regards

BPC system copy doubts

Hello,
I need to do a refresh/system copy of our SAP BO BPC 7.5, I want to do a refresh of our development BPC with the production BPC. What I need to do, I don´t understand!
Can you help me please?
Thank you,
samid raif

Hello Vadim,
Thank you for your answer. But tell me, this kind of action are not covered in some SAP guides or SAP help? Where is the instructions for this type of procedure?
We have this SAP BO BPC 7.5 installed in windows server and it´s connected to our BW system installed in other server! I installed both some months ago.
I installed the CPMBPC component (release 750) SP level 12 in the BW system and I also installed the SAP BusinessObjects, the Planning and Consolidation Server version for SAP Netweaver as you can see in the images bellow
I need to do a system copy for the BW system (from production to the development system) and also the BPC... I don´t understand this last thing, because... for instance where is the BPC database? I don´t get it!
Kind regards,
samid raif

Detail about System Copy / Migration. (URGENT)

Hi! Friends,
I got a new internal project. That is I have to build a new R/3 4.7 (SR1) 1.10 IDES system from the existing one to a new hardware (Server).
Details :
Current : SAP R/3 4.7 (SR1) 1.10 IDES with Kernel 6.20 NU
OS : Windows 2000 AS
DB : Oracle 8.1.7.4.1
Proposed : SAP R/3 4.7 (SR1) 1.10 IDES with Kernel 6.20 NU
OS : Windows 2003 R/2
DB : Oracle 9.2 or 10.2g
I have gone through the sap pdf docs. But still not sure.
My questions are :
1) How to take backup current system data. With conventional db13 or any other way ?
2) After installing CI in new server how to use R/3load to
import the backup data to create DI for new system?
3) Can I use Transport the client-dependent and client-independent data here? If yes, How?
Can you please guide me with detail steps.
Advance Thanks and regards,
Pratip

Hi! Linder,
Thanks very much for U R prompt reply.
1) I am confused. As SAP saying As I understand the process, if you wish to upgrade OS and DB in the same step, you must do a hetrogenous system copy. And U R saying it it a Since this will be a homogeneous copy, no migration key is required.
2) As I donot have Oracle 8.1 CDs so first either I have to install Oracle 9i or 10.2g DB software. In that case your first solution Oracle datafile copy will be vapplicable or not? If yes can U pl. give me the detail procedure?
3) What is the easy option ? using tools like R3load, R3ldctl and R3szchk or using SAP installation disk at the time of DI installation?
4) Can you please explain step by step of the procedure You must first make an export and then do an installation with the created export set instead of the export set from CD.
Waiting for UR reply.
Thanks and regards,
Pratip

Please advice.

CAn you precise also what Migration tool are you using?
Migration from 5.1 to SAP BPC 7.0 NW?
In that case when you are speaking about the installation about what part are you speaking?
I think actually you are speaking about the migration tool from 4.2 to 7.0 Microsoft version .
In that case you can install the mIgration tool just with SAP BPC sys admin users and you have to input the password for that user. Sys admin user for BPC is usually the user used for installation of SAP BPC server.
Any way I suggest to follow the Migration tool training document and there you will find all the information necessary.

Dialog Instances Java are not up after System Copy NW2004s SR2 ABAP+JAVA

Hello guys,
I have just performed a system copy of our BW system (douple stack NW2004s) wich consists from CI and 2 DIs. First I made an export using SAPINST (Software from SAP_BUSINESS_SUITE_2005_SR2 for sparc solaris), where I choosed in SAP Installation Master->SAp Netweaver 2004s Support Release 2->Additional Software Life-cycle Tasks->System Copy->Oracle->Source System->Central System->Based on ABAP and Java->Database and Central Instance Export. I couldn't find any special task for export java from my dialog instances, so I thought it would be ok like that. Then I used the same software on my target system, choosed ...Additional Software Life-cycle Tasks->System Copy->Oracle->Target System->Central System->Based on ABAP and Java->Central System Installation. In the Dialog input phase of SAPINST I indicated that use db specific tools to copy your database. So I made the database restore+recovery with our DB tools and continued withthe SAPINST and Import.
Afterwards the ABAP part and Java on the central Instance run perfect, but Java Stack is not up by both of Dialog Instances. I have checked the configtool on the server where the CI is running (the DIs are running on different linux servers) and couldn't see any entries for my dialog instances, only the CI was seable there. I tried to start configtool from the application server, but there I could find only the file config.properties in the directory /usr/sap/<SID>/.../j2ee/configtool/, others were simply not there, so it was impossible to start it. Have i forgotten something by EXPORT/IMPORT or I should just use other software for coping a System with douple stack on a CI and DIs? Or should I get configtools for Linux platform ( have searched but not found yet) and try to make the same changes wich i have done by the CI before i started Java on the CI? The most irritated point is that i can't see the dialog instanes in Configtool from the CI.
Any other suggestions and good advices?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards, Polina

BDLS Conversion after System Copy fails

Hi All,
We are doing a Homogeneous System Copy on a AIX 5.3/Oracle 10.2.0.4/ SAP ERP 6.0 environment.
After the system copy we had to run BDLS to convert logical system names in tables. Except for 3 tables namely EDPP1, TBD05 and TBD06 the BDLS run was successful.
We tried to convert the logical system names in these tables by running BDLS for these tables individually however they failed again.
The error was - "Error in field of table. Manual correction required"
I checked SAP Note 121163 and it is mentioned in this note -
"If the new logical system name already exists in the system, it can cause errors for tables in which the logical system is key field or
unique index (for example, COFIO1). In this case the number of converted entries is smaller than the number of selected entries."
And in this case a manual post-processing is required. How do I go about doing this manual post-processing?
1. Should I maintain these directly at the table level - which is cumbersome as there are a lot of entries?
2. Or using a small ABAP program?
Please let me know if any other information is required frommy side.
Thanks, Dibya

Hi,
Yes ofcourse, you need to check all settinfs, once you copy teh system you are going loose all RFC's and Source and Destinations ectc, so adject all that settings.
See the following SAP Notes:
SAP Note 886102 - System Landscape Copy for SAP NetWeaver BW
SAP Note 325470 - Activities after client copy in BW source systems
SAP Note 325525 - Copying and renaming systems in a BW environment
SAP Note 1333302 - Special procedure for BW system copy
SAP Note 996238 - Dump 'RFC connection error' after BW system copy
