System copy (backend and/or SRM)

Hi
we have more than one backend connected to SRM. Sometimes our Q-system is copied (refreshed) from the productive system. If we do a alligned copy (all systems SRM and ERPs) the new Q-landscape is of course fine.
In future, we'd like to decouple the system refreshments. Meaning: only one backend will be refreshed without SRM, or only SRM will be refreshed without the backends.
Does anybody have experienc with that? What do you do to reconstruct testable data (mainly POs) in both cases?
Info: We're using the extended classic scenario.
br,
Richard

my understanding is that you need to copy the connected system ( ECC) along with SRM. If only one system is refreshed, then the material master replication and other similar configuration whcih are based on GUIDs may not work properly. I have never tried /worked on system whcih are refreshed the way you have mentioned.
Pl let me know your views.
Thanks

System Copy - Homogenous and Heterogeneous

Hi All Experts,
Could one of you, please explain me the steps how to performed Homogenous,
Heterogeneous, Client copy and System copy. Please help.
Thanks,
Frank.

Hi Frank,
For client copy there are two types one is Local client copy which is with the system and Remote client copy which is copy of client from one system to another system.
Local client copy :
     1. scc4 .. entry for new client
     2. logon to the new entered client with SAP* password: pass
     3. sccl ..select source client and target would the one u logged in currently.
     4. Set the parallel processes ( depends on u r cpu) normally 6 -16
     5. Start in dialog
     6. check the logs in SCC3 .
Remote client copy:
1. Scc4 entry for the client.
2. SCC8 RFC maintain .. folow the screens
3. Scc3
System Copy:
1. Take the offline backup of the source system and the control file.
2. Restore the backup on the target system.
3. change the control file path.
4. change in the control file where this RESET to SET
5. Startup database in mount state.
6. Run the control file.
7. open the database with command : alter database open resetlogs;
8.All Done !!!
I hope its helpfull ..

Tax calculation in backend and in SRM (classic and standalone scenario)

Hello,
I have an issue regarding calculation of tax. 2 scenarios are used in common: classic and standalone. One node of Organizational structure is using classic scenario, another node is using standalone. So I have 2 Accounting Systems defined (one for each node).
Requirement is:
- For classic scenario, setting the tax calculation in backend
- For standalone scenario, setting the tax calculation to no tax calculation
Problem is that I can not customize the system this way. I do not know any mean to set 2 ways for tax calculation. Would you have any idea to do this?
Thanks,
Patrick

2 Instances in Configtool and offlinecfgeditor after System Copy ABAP+Java

Hello,
I've done a system copy ABAP+JAVA of a XI3.0 (WAS 6.40) and after the system copy I've my system up & running.
The problem is:
After I have finished the System Copy (Export and Import) of the ABAP and Java part I'm doing the pre-steps for the Upgrade to PI 7.1.
Ok, following the note 1061649 on the point "Checking the Consistency Between Primary Application Server Instance ID and Box Number" when I check this point I'm in trouble because my Java ID (the same Java ID of the source system of the system copy) isn't the JAVA ID that the checks waits for my destination server.
The result of the check is:
java -cp instanceidcheck.jar com.sap.sdt.check.InstanceIdChecker ID84971 21 XIDDVEBMGS21sapxid
The calculated instance ID is ID2190439
WARNING!!! The source system ID that you provided (ID84971) is different than the one calculated (ID2190439)
You will have problems installing the shadow system and running the migration.
Then, I go to see in configtool my InstanceID and I see that I have 2 InstanceID's....the instanceID ID2190439 that is empty (no dispatcher and no server0) and the instanceID ID84971 that has dispatcher, server0 and is the instance which is starting when I type "startsap sapxid".
Can you tell me why is happening that ??

Albert

ECC6 EHP2 (ABAP+Java) system copy using file system copy

Hello Experts,
I have a question around system copy method for a dual stack ECC6 EHP2 system.
We are planning to take full file system backup of this entire ECC6 EHP2 dual stack system and throw it on a completely new hardware with new host name but same SID. We are also planning to do a host renaming in instance profiles and re-building the control files in target system after we finish the file system restore.
Is this method supported in SAP ? Or we strictly have to use SAPinst to do export and import method. In any case our source and target platform is not going to chance as per our scenario.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Harshal

> Thanks for the quick response. Is their any document that says it is not supported ? Because of no proper document that says no to do it, client want's to try it out.
For the ABAP part this is certainly feasible.
The Java part has not only issues with the secure store but also with SID and hostname. The old values are stored in many places in the database and in, depending on the applications installed, many .properties files in the filesystem. So it would be not enough to somehow regenerate the secure store but also change hostname and SID in different places that are not really all documented.
What you are basically looking for is
Note 757692 - Changing the hostname for J2EE Engine 6.40/7.0 installation
with the significant sentence
This note should be applied only when the hostname of a machine
where the j2ee engine was already installed has changed.
It does not replace the SAP official system copy procedure and
MUST NOT be used for copying of an instance to another host and/or with different SID.

Cube is still assigned to original system after system copy

Hello Experts,
After system copy (BW and ECC), some cubes are still assigned to the original system.
Displaying the flow, the cube is assigned to the new system and the original one and the error message RSAR203 "Source system & (old one) does not exist" is araised.
I see that RFC connexion with original system are still in the system (were not deleted by basis team).
I have this problem only for cubes.
Any idea how can i fix this issue?
Thank you in advance.

HI,
You can try the tcode 'bdls'. in this tcode you copy all tables to new source system.

System Copy of XI 6.40 ABAP+JAVA

Hi
In our XI landscape, we have XI development server and XI production server. We would like to create the
XI Quality instance for testing. Also we want to refresh XI devepolment server from XI production server.
Here XI 3.00 is installed on Unix platform with Oracle 10g database (SAP WebAS 6.40).
Pls let me know the following:
1. Can i create the XI quality server with System copy option from XI production server? or do i have
     to create XI quality server with the new installation? What would be the best option?
2. I 'm not able to get the system copy process of SAP Web AS 6.40 for XI. Pls forward me system copy
    document or send me SAP link for the same. I have the System Copy document for system based   on SAP NW 2004s SR1 ABAP+ JAVA. Can i use this document?
Thanks
Amar

Hello,
the System Copy document for system based on SAP NW 2004s SR1 ABAP+ JAVA is he wrong version for your system since it is based on 640 aka NW 2004. The "s" is very essetial.
A System Copy is possible in XI 3.0 (=640) as long as your NW SP is at least SP 14.
For more details please check the SAP Note 971645.
for your conveniance I copied from this note the most importend additional link :
You find the current version of the Java system copy guide on
SAP Service Marketplace at:
http://service.sap.com/instguidesNW04   > Installation   > SAP Web AS
> SAP Web AS 6.40 SR1 and Related Documentation
> Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy
> Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems based on
    SAP Web AS Java 6.40 Patch Collection
Please read both, SAP Note and SAP Documentation for the intended copy.
Best Regards
Thomas

System copy using oracle backup/restore - sapinst does not restart after re

I am performing a system copy of a BW3.5 system, using the system copy procedures and Oracle backup/restore. on the target node, I have installed the CI. I have run sapinst to install the database up to the point when it tells me to install the Oracle Server software, then restore the backup, and choose 'OK' in the dialog box. As I did not want to leave this dialog open, I chose 'cancel'. I have now installed Oracle, and restored the database, but when I try restarting sapinst I get the following error, and sapinst quits:
FKD-00049 XML - Parser error: error: invalid symbol '' in literal 'SAPSYSTEM_DB
indind_ind_ind_ind_0_SAPSYSTEM_ind_ind_ind_ind_ind_0_SAPComponent_ind_ind_ind_
ind_ind_0_SAPComponent_Accounts_ind_ind_ind_ind_ind_0_SAPCompon' in line 1, 1

ERROR      2007-08-20 15:06:13 [iaxxcsihlp.hpp:208]
           main()
FCO-00031 An error occurred during the installation of component Problem: error

rmation or press OK to terminate the installation.
Has anybody ever experienced this before, or have any clues as to what the problem is? This is a production system, and it is supposed to be available by the end of the week....

Hi Angie,
You should always mention OS details while drafting message.
First, CHeck you must selected same SID as earlier while installation or Oracle and DB.
Secondly, you can skip this phase in SAPInst, bit technical for you.
Alternatively,
Recommendations
- Set parameters as per SAP Note 356370
- Change the swap mode from 'intermediate' to 'deferred' as described in
SAP Note 97179.
- Add /usr/sbin to the path of the user <sapsid>adm in the file
.cshrc, .login, .profile in the user's home directory. Enter the
following command(s) at the end of .cshrc, .login, .profile:
a) If using a csh, enter:
       set path=(/usr/sbin $path)
b) If using a sh, enter:
       path=/usr/sbin:$path
       export path

Java Add-in System Copy - same Java Support Package levels ?

Hi,
I'm looking at performing a standard SAP Netweaver 04 SAP Web Application Server system "refresh" procedure. I plan to copy the production system ( SAP WAS 640 ABAP+Java addin )to an already installed QA system that was installed originally exactly the same as Prod. Both have the same components installed and the ABAP stack Support package levels are identical. What I've found is that the Java Add-in Support package levels vary. Is it possible to perform the system copy "refresh" if the Java components differ. ( Prod J2EE is 640 SP13, QA is SP14 and Adobe & ESS/MSS components differ ).
I've looked through the system copy guides and the NW04 SR1 system copy OSS note 785848, but can't find anything about this situation.
Hopefully someone else out there can tell me if it's possible, without first patching Production to the same levels as the QA system being overwritten.
Regards,
Brian.

Hello,
u can do that w/o applying the patch ..but after doing system copy u have latest SP13 as of u r PRD server instead of SP14 in QA....if required then u can apply it again in QA....SP14.
So if u not got my point then tell me...
thanks..

Add QAS in to system lanscape by system copy from PRD

Dear Expert ,
I had the follow case would like to have your comment on is that possible and any thing post step need to do.
In before we only have 2 PI system . One is DEV ( XID) , the other one is PRD ( XIP ) .Now we would like to have 1 more QAS (XIQ) on our system lanscape.
I would like to know is that possible for us to system copy XIP and change to SID from XIP to XIQ , so that we will have a QAS system for testing.Please help to advise is this method possible or not and will there any risk we need to take care.
( If possible I would like to know the post step and other information may usefull too )
thx,
Tony

Am not a basis guy, But, out of experience, i can say that,
it can be easily done with the help of basis guys,
1) Make system copy of XIP & rename it to XIQ.
2)Change all the connections to QAS server of ECC. Like proxy, RFC Destinations, SLD, etc.
3)Update the file locations of XIQ to QA file locations in FILE ,FTP,SFTP CC's.
4)Also, Need to verify all other CC's , if they are pointing to PROD, those needs to be changed to QAS.

How to perform system copy using standard sap method (sapinst)

Hi guys
pls tel how to perform system copy using standard sap method (sapinst) and to perform enterprise portal RESTORSTION.
thanks
kamal

Hi Kamal,
I have done a system copy of the production portal to a sandpit system before. The system copy export import method works very well, and is easy. For my portal, the whole procedure took me less than 6 hours.
1. Go to this page: System Copy and Migration
2. See the videos "Demo: How to Perform a System Copy Export" and "Demo: How to Perform a System Copy Import".
This should give you the basic idea.
I did a systemcopy using sapinst. If I remember right, this is the steps I performed:
1. On target host, Installed a new Central services.
2. On source host: Ran sapinst system copy export for Central Instance and Database instance. This created two export files (depending on your database size).
3. Used the export files created in previous step to run the import step in target host.
4. Some post processing steps, like configuring sso, creating systems in system landscapes, configuring WD JCos etc.
Let me know if you need more help.
Cheers
Rishi
