System copy based on export/import on MSCS

Hi,
a NW 7.0 istance (BW usage) on MSCS... we would like to copy to new host (as dev refresh). This MSCS is made of:
- host1 (first node)
- host2 (second node)
- mscdhost (mscs virtual host)
- orahost (oracle virtualhost... on a dedicated group)
- saphost (sap virtual host on a dedicate group)
Central istance is installed on host1 and a dialog istance is installed on host2.
So for the export I run sapinst (Software Life-Cycle OptionsSystem Copy / Oracle / Source System / Distributed System / High-Availability System / Based on ABAP and Java):
Preparation as: sapinst.exe SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=orahost
Table splitting as: sapinst.exe SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=orahost
Db Export as: sapinst.exe SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=orahost
Central Istance as: sapinst.exe SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=host1
Is it OK?
Regards.

Hi,
Please refer this thread [BW system copy in MSCS|BW system copy in MSCS;.

    Is your DB unicode?  If so, did you select the unicode flag in sapinst?

  • System copy using R3load ( Export / Import )

    Hi,
    We are testing System copy using R3load ( Export / Import ) using our production data.
    Environment : 46C / Oracle.
    while executing export, it takes more than 20 hours, for the data to get exported, we want to reduce the export time drastically. hence, we want to achieve it by scrutinizing the input parameters.
    during export, there is a parameter by name splitting the *.STR and *.EXT files for R3load.
    the default input for the above parameter is No, do not split STR and EXT files.
    My question 1 : If we input yes instead of No and split the *.STR and *.EXT files, will the export time get reduced ?
    My Question 2: If the answer is yes to Question 1, will the time reduced will be significant enough ? or how much percentage of time we can expect it to reduce, compare to a No Input.
    Best Regards
    L Raghunahth

    Hi
    The time of the export depends on the size of your database (and the size of your biggest tables) and your hardware capacity.
    My question 1 : If we input yes instead of No and split the *.STR and *.EXT files, will the export time get reduced ?
    In case you have a few very large tables, and you have multiple cpu's and a decent disk storage, then splitting might significantly reduce the export time.
    My Question 2: If the answer is yes to Question 1, will the time reduced will be significant enough ? or how much percentage of time we can expect it to reduce, compare to a No Input.
    As you did not tell us about your database size and hardware details there is no way to give you anything but very basic metrics. Did you specify a parallel degree at all, was your hardware idling for 20 hrs or fully loaded already?
    20 hrs for a 100gb database is very slow. It is reasonable (rather fast in my opinion)  for a 2tb database.
    Best regards, Michael

  • System copy via SAPINST (Export/Import)

    Hello!
    We are using SAP ERP EHP4 system on Windows with SAP MaxDB (Version: 7.7.07.09).
    We would like to copy this productive system to QAS system.
    Therefore we successfully run SAPINST (with running db and sap, because we cannot stop productive system) with option Export and have currently an valid export of productive system.
    After we read several sap notes (such as 1014782, 129352) we found that the system copy procedure Backup/Restore will be recomended.
    Questions
    1) Can we still copy productive system via export and import option with SAPINT?
    1a) Should/must the SAP Max DB instance be installed before runing SAPINT on the target server?
    1b)  Which SAP MaxDB version should be installed on the target server?
    Has some one experience with system copy of SAP systems with SPA MaxDB via Export/Import?
    It will be great to get some answers or recommendation.

  • Client Copy Using Client Export/Import

    Hi Everyone,
    This is regarding Client Copy Using Client Export/Import Method. We have two system Production and Development system. Iam planning to do a client copy from from PRD to DEV. I know most of the steps to perform Client Copy.I have some doubhts So if some one can please help me out i would really appreciate it.
    !) I want to know which user should be used to perfrom Client Export ?
    2) I want to know know which user to be used to perform Client delete?
    3) Is there any particular USER who is recommended to perform Client Copy or any USER can do it?
    4) After the Client Delete Procedure thorugh SCC5 ..to get back the client space we do Reorganization ? can anyone plzz tell me what are the tables that i need to reorganize or if anyone can provide me the steps for Reorganization i would be really thankful.
    Waiting For your Replies
    Best Regards

    Hi Mohammed,
    1)I want to know which user should be used to perfrom Client Export ?
    You can use your personal defined on the system UserID.
    2) I want to know know which user to be used to perform Client delete?
    Same as above, just make sure you have an account on the client and you log on to the right client
    3) Is there any particular USER who is recommended to perform Client Copy or any USER can do it?
    I am not aware that you should use a particular user. I have been doing copies/deletions with my UserID, as system administrator.
    4) After the Client Delete Procedure thorugh SCC5 ..to get back the client space we do Reorganization ? can anyone plzz tell me what are the tables that i need to reorganize or if anyone can provide me the steps for Reorganization i would be really thankful.
    Reorganization ( I personally) use SAPDBA tool. However -if you use ORACLE, there are other alternatives as well. What is your DB  vendor? I will append more info in a bit.

  • Data migration from one DEV(DE1) system to other DEV(DE2) BW system using client copy or client export import

    HI SAP Gurus,
    Please find the below details:
    SAP NetWeaver 7.3
    We have to copy all customized or developed BW objects like master data, DSO's , Infocubes , Reports etc.
    We need only the design changes but not the data within the DSO or cubes that exist .
    We have tried below procedure:
    1) Taken export of DE1 source client 400 with profile SAP_CUST
    2) Imported transports generated for above export into DE2 target client 350.
    3) Executed transaction SCC3 and performed post processing, post processing was successful  . Still we are not able to see DSO's, infocubes ,reports.
    Please lets us know what we need to do to fulfill our requirement.
    Thanks,

    Hi Basis,
    Please refer to below documentation on how to perform system copy in BI systems
    How to System Copy in SAP Business Intelligence System Landscapes (NW2004)
    Post processing steps for SAP BW system copy or db copy
    BI systems has mostly cross client objects. So client copy with SAP_CUST profile will not serve your purpose.
    Hope this helps.

  • System copy for R/3 4.7 MSCS

    Hi all,
    Currently we are planning a system copy using R3Load import/export on R/3 4.7. Below is the details:
    Target : New PRD with clustering MSCS & OFS configured (both win & oracle 64 bit)
    Source: Old PRD with clustering MSCS & OFS configured (both win & oracle 32 bit)
    Questions:
    1. the target is already been configured with all the clustering setup and installed with SAP with old data. Now, we just want to copy the latest old PRD data to the target. we plan to skip all the step and just re-run the DB import step using the SAPinst R3load import/export method. Does the sapinst 6.40 will auto drop the DB & re-create DB during import?
    2. If the sapinst 6.40 can't drop & re-create, how we can drop the DB & re-import the new DB?
    Thanks

    If your target system is up and running then you can use database specific tools to copy your database.
    Ie: online / offline backup to restore from your old to new system.
    You can go thorugh the docs under : SAP on Oracle

  • Homogeneous system copy using export/import on WIn/Ora

    Dear experts,
    i need to know the homogeneous system copy procedure using export/import method for following scenario as we are in the process of Data center migration of SAP systemsfrom location to another location.
    Source system:
    ECC6/BI7/APO(ABAP stack)
    OS:WIndows 2003
    D:B:Oracle 10g
    Target System: New hardware installed on Virtual environment(VMware)
    No change of SID
    ECC6/BI//APO
    OS:WINDOWS2008
    D:B: Oracle 11g
    It would be great if anyone can share the documentu2019s/links (Not SAP homogeneous system copy guide) which you have prepared for the homog. system copy using export/import on Windows/oracle  as i have done the system copy using backup/restore for ABAP stack and export/import for Java stack so far.
    Therefore i am not sure about this procedure/prerequisites/checklist needs to prepare as i have gone through the SAP guide but it is not step by step document.
    Cheers

    There are two approacahes for your  project
    1) First wether to use Oracle11g on target database
    2) Continue with Database Oracle 10.2 on traget database
    If you want to use Oracle11.2 on your target database you have to search the installers which are supported for 11.2 database. If the installers are available then only you can install your target database using Oracle11.2.Other wise t use Oracle10.2.0.4 is supported on Win2008r2. You can use this version of Oracle database to build ur target database.It works fine . Absolutely no problem.
    Later on you can upgrade the Oracle10.2 to 11.2 Onwards.
    If installers are avialble you can use Oracle11.2 also. There is absolutely no problem.
    As per my knowledge installers are available and supported with Oracle11.2.Also check the PAM before arriving on any deciscion.

  • R3load system copy: Error on database export

    Hello all,
    I am trying to do a system copy via r3load - Export and then import on a WAS 640 oracle Netweaver based system which has both ABAP and JAVA stack.

    What I tried: I tried putting in the latest patch level for r3ldctl, r3load and r3szchk kernel files. It was at kernel patch 43. I upgraded to latest 175 from market place. And restarted sapinst again to start the export again. Again I face the same problem. Sapinst aborts at this stage again. I basically took the whole sapexedb patch 175 and yupdated the kernel but it did not help.
    If any of you out there can lead me in the right direction so that I can get over this stumbling block, would be grateful.
    Many Thanks, Vikram

  • System copy Oracle 10.2 in MSCS

    Hi,
    we need to move (using system copy) for a old MSCS cluster to new HW MSCS cluster of our NW04s (Abap and Java) + Oracle 10.2.0.2 + Win03 X86.
    I would like to use backup/restore method due a very large Oracle database.
    OK, I've already move a stand alone system to a MSCS using backup/restore method... but now, into MSCS source system I can't select method of backup/restore export to generare SDM, ecc. jar file to complete system copy on target system.
    Is it possible to use a Oracle backup/restore method to copy an existing MSCS to new MSCS ?
    Regards.

    Hi,
    >there should be no functional difference in systemcopy in MSCS compared to standalone configuration.

    I suppose that but during db export on source system we are not be able to flag "use database specifc tools"

  • DB Error during System Copy Import

    Hello,
    We are currently doing a heterogeneous system copy of an internal Solution Manager
    7.01 (running on Linux SLES10 SP2 64Bit) to a new machine (running on
    Linux SLES11 SP1 64Bit). The database we are using on both side is MaxDB.
    During the export phase, nothing went wrong. The pre and post requisites were implemented.
    But during the import phase with sapinst and more especially during the 'import ABAP' step we are facing the following errors.

    Before the export we executed the report for the DDL migration, created
    the right *.sql files. We copied those sql files in the right folder
    according to note 771209 and the System Copy guide.
    We also tried to implement note 942540 - System copy fails on SAPDFACT
    import, but we are not able to drop the mentioned tables. We are
    getting 'unknown tables' whereas we see them in DB.
    We would like to avoid restarting the export and import phases from the beggining as there is approximately 80GB to transfer each time and we are not running this on a server but desktop PC.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    Hello Andreas
    thank you for your answer. However, the table specified in the Note is not found when I am running the specified request in the correct schema:
    -4004: POS(16) Unknown table name:/MAXDB/INDEXSTATEMENTS SQLSTATE: 42000
    SAP_BW component in Solution Manager 7.01 SPS24 is SAPKW70106. As this BW release is already more recent than the one recommended in the Note, this issue should not be link to an old BW component patch version then.
    In the meantime, I have applied Notes 888210 and 942540. But I cannot drop the tables specified since the user SAPSMJ has no DROPIN privilege and I cannot grant them even when using SUPERDBA user.
    So I think we need to re-run the export as we are running out of options to try continuing the import phase.
    Regarding the use of last R3load release, would you know the path to download it on the marketplace and if I need the last  R3load kernel version (7.3) or only the last patch for 7.01 and knowing that I am using Netweaver 7.01 packages for the copy ? R3load used so far is 7.01/V1.4.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Johann

  • SLD Export / import Technical and Business systems

    Dear all,
    I am new to SLD administration.
    We have task to update the local SLD on the Production PI system PPI ( Target ) with the business systems ZEC, ZSC from the Production Master SLD on Production solution manager system
    PSM ( source ) using Export/Import on the necessary technical and business systems.
    Please confirm whether i am following correct steps :
    Go to SLD Administration on PPI target system
    ALL Instances
    Instances by Class
    Model
    ( which one of this option need to be selected , please let me know  ?? )
    Go to SLD Administration on PSM source system.
    select Export button ->
    Select business systems one by one and perform Export which will create .ZIP file
    at local machine.
    Go to SLD Administration on PPI target system
    select Import button ->
    Select Export ZIP file which created in previous steps from PSM and provide location from desktop
    Start Import button ( only if you get Continue import option )
    Please let me know if above procedure is correct for business systems
    if yes then  what need to be done for Technical system ??...do they require Export/import also ?
    If yes when i go to technical system option i get Export option disabled...but same way when i go to
    business systems option i get Export button enable and able to perform the export.
    Do i need to only Export / Import business systems ?
    Plese help me.
    Regards,
    RR

    Manoj,
    It seems entries are added manually .... should we remove and run Import for the same ...
    or just try to overwrite .... in case of overwrite option ( as we have open OSS message ) SAP has suggested through OSS message that If you end up with problems when trying to overwrite, then the PPI SLD is broken and will have to be re-built because someone made a manual change to it and got the GUIDs out of synch with the master.
    I do not understand if target system PPI SLD gets broken during overwriting operation as mentioned by SAP ... whats is the way / steps / procedure to Re-build SLD .
    In rebuilt - process do i need to Import ( Export -> Export lines -> ALL ) the export backup created before start of this activity ? please let me know SLD rebuilt steps and about Remove - reimport issue.
    Appreciate you time on this. thanks in advance.
