System copy for ESS
Dear all,
I have do the jload to export java DB to another box as my quality EP. I have installed ITS on the same server as well. I have configured the configuration in portal, and all of the connections are tested working fine.Im able to login to the http://<server>:<port>/irj/portal with the from my qulaity hr system. the problem is when i click "leave" it prompted me the screen and ask for id and password. I have supplied the id and password but it only show me "welcome to ITS...".
any idea what should i check?
thanks
Hi,
to get a new system being equivalent to another one you need to do a system copy with the help of sap tools - a database copy is not the same.

System copy for PI 7.0 system
Hi,
We are doing system copy for complete landscape and every time we used to perform PI system copy using SAP standard procedure of backup/restore, Java exp/imp.
But can we use another approach of exporting IR/ID from source to Target. Because we do not have any transactional data in PI and what are different things that we need to take care if we export individual components.
Like new ports, we20,we21, IDX1,IDX2
Thanks,
Venkat.to elaborate more,
we are doing system copy from Dev to Sandbox (we already have working sand box)
I am planning below steps
1) export all the software components from development system - Integration repository and Directory
2) Adjust the transport path in SLD (source Dev and target Sandbox)
3) Import the software components to Sandbox for Integration repository and Directory.
4) change user-passwords to match sandbox authentication.
Please let me know if i am missing any steps and has any one did a copy by above procedure.
Thanks,

System copy for ECC 6.0 system no j2ee process under MMC
Dear support,
This has been observed in many of our clients system which are on ECC 6.0 abap+java system, that after we perform system copy from one system to another
whether it is Oracle platform or mssql server platform ( system copy for oracle using controlfile script ) ( system copy for mssql with restoring .BAK file from source )
systems are running fine but j2ee process table showing no processes like
SDM, dispatcher , server0
even configtool and go.bat are unable to connect.
Is there any specific settings we do after system copy for java side
Please let me know at earliest, as it is most strange thing i have seen in almost all my system where system copy is performed.I have already raised a post against this error but at that time i was not aware of this system copy reason behind the same.
Best regards,
AjitRYour main problem is not, that you don't see anything in MMC (the system can be added manually without much hazzle) - but is, that you database content of schema SAP<SID>DB does not match the data found on the filesystem.
If you copy the filesystem structure from production to test/qa, you need to make sure, the database and filesystem are in sync. You will have two problems if you "just copy them":
- They are out of sync because your production was going on running since you copied the backup files
- all configuration (all java property sheets) is/are set to point to the production system instead of the test/qa system
I doubt, that it will work if you copy it over. This also explains, why you can't even start configtool, because it points to the wrong system/schema. You MAY be able to fix all that manually, but you may encounter subsequent errors because not all configuration is documented, you would need to step into the whole j2ee tree and look at each and every propertysheet to find out, whether it's correct or not. Additionally, the database may have other information (see above) and all that may become overwritten during bootstrap.
So - the best way to get your system up and running quickly is to start sapinst on the source system, export your Java instance (not using ABAP but the Java dump) and re-importing that to your test/qa system.

Homogeneous System Copy for 4.5B/DB6/W2K ?
I'm looking for the documentation on doing a homogeneous system copy for an R/3 4.5B System for a client. They are running DB6 on Windows 2000. I've searched Service Marketplace and can only find doc's back as far as 4.6C. I can't find the one for 4.5B.
The client is looking to migrate the current system to new hardware and then subsequently upgrade to ECC 6.00, but that part is off a piece. The first part is to migrate the system to the new hardware in order to solve some space and performance issues.
If anyone can point me to the docs, or has a copy on their local machines they can send me, then please let me know.
Thanks.I suggest you open an OSS call under BC-INS and ask for the guide there.
Since 4.5B is out of maintenance and you/your customer has (hopefully) an extended maintenance contract for that version they will give you that guide.
If you do NOT have them, you might be pretty lost in case of a problem, if you have the guide or not...

I plan Homogeneous system copy for 4.7.x.1.1 windows/oracle at a
customer
downloaded tools(do I have to put extracted files on the sorce machine
in kernel directory?):

MIGMON_2-20001410.SAR
MIGTIME_2-20001410
MIGTIME_2-20001410.SAR

SAPCAR_5-10002026.EXE
SPLIT_2-20001410
SPLIT_2-20001410.SAR
I would have additional questions.
1. In note 516246(System copy for SAP Systems based on SAP Web AS 6.20)
it is mentioned to download the latest version of R3LDCTL and apply it
to the system. I have following questions:
under service.sap.com/patches
i found only
R3LDCTL
Support Package SAP KERNEL 4.5B 32-BIT Windows Server on IA32 32bit
ORACLE
Is this file ok?(I will perform a homogeneous system copy of an 4.7x1.1
system)
If the file is ok what is meant as apply?(put it in kernel directory?)
2. Very similar question applies to file R3szchk
under service.sap.com/patches I found only
R3szchk
Support Package SAP KERNEL 4.6C 32-BIT Windows Server on IA32 32bit
ORACLE
Is this file ok?(I will perform a homogeneous system copy of an 4.7x1.1
system)
3.In same note(516246) the SAPinst CD is mentioned. How could I get it?
4.On the Source system I have kernel 640. I guess I have to copy the
content of this directory to the target system also. But in which phase?hi,
first my question GGG
-> by which means do you plan to copy? brbackup/brrestore? r3copy? r3load?
ad 1.
SAPNet -> Patches -> Add. Components -> SAP Kernel -> 32 BIT (uni oder non-uni depending on your environment) -> SAP Kernel 6.40 32-bit -> Windows Srv -> Oracle -> R3ldctl_6-20000185.SAR (13.07.2006) is the right file (your kernel is 6.40!!!)
ad 2.
SAPNet -> Patches -> Add. Components -> SAP Kernel -> 32 BIT (uni oder non-uni depending on your environment) -> SAP Kernel 6.40 32-bit -> Windows Srv -> Oracle -> R3szchk_12-20000185.SAR is the right file (your kernel is 6.40!!!)
ad 3.
SAPNet -> SWDC (= Downloads) -> Download -> Inst. and Upgrades -> Entry by applic. group -> SAP Applic. Components -> SAP R/3 Enterprise -> Ent. 47X110 -> Installation -> Windows Server -> Oracle -> CD SAP R3E 4.7x1.10 SR1 SAPINST ORACLE (CD N° 51019679)
ad 4.
not really....it depends on the strategy (see my question above)...you first install the database software (oracle), then the central instance using sapinst, afterwards you will install the database instance using sapinst as well; while installing the db instance you have to chose db copy (or homogeneous copy, system copy) as the "database installation method" if you choose to copy the database files or did a backup if you choose to use the export/import method (using standard r3load) you will use the SystemCopy method as well but you will point (later on) to the directory where you (source) db export lies.
brrestore or copy method:
=========================
sapinst will popup at the appropriate point that the db load has to be done and depending on your strategy you have either to restore or copy files...
by the way: did you already export/backup/copy your source system?
if any further questions arise feel free to post

Do we need to create or actiovate any system objects for ess mss applicatio
Hi
I am new to ESS MSS business packages.i know we need to activate 5 pairs of JCO destinations,
do we need to create or activate any system objects ,because ess mss applications contains transactional iviews also
how they will communicate.once you placed the portal content, the default system objetcs for ESS and MSS are delivered by SAP only, we need to configure the same like JCO destinations.,

Java WAS System Copy for non-SR1 Systems
Hi,
I found the document describing the Java WAS system
copy for NW 2004SR1.
However, has anybody successfully copied a Java
WAS system (Especially if the SID was
changed) which was not SR1?
I understand how to copy the datafiles, recreate the
control files, adapt the default and instance
profiles, etc..
However, I am not sure which other parameters,
XML files, or database entries need to be changed.
This is for a development system (I wouldn't do this
for a production system).
Any information from somebody who succeeded to do
this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
IFHi,
for system copy of SCM 4.0 use the document system copy for webas 6.20
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700002645032002E/syscopy620_140803.pdf
perform DB copy as note 151603 :Copying an SQL Server database (homogeneous system copy)
apply sap note 551915 - R/3 won't start after database restore or database copy after DB copy.
if you want to perform livecache copy also
check Note 457425 - Homogenous liveCache copy using backup/restore
also consider Note 886103 - System Landscape Copy for SAP SCM

System Copy for SAP Netweaver 2004 ABAP and Java
Dear Friends,
We are planning to do System copy for CRM 4.0 (ABAP+Java) from PROD to Quality.
Production has following
Production
CRP (ABAP+JAVA, Oracle 10g)
CR1 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
CR2 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
Test
CRT (ABAP+JAVA, Oracel 10g)
CR1 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
As per my understanding perfrom System Copy in two methods
1. Using Offline backup of CRP from the Split Mirror backup.
2. Export of the CRP from the Split Mirror backup.If you have Split Mirror available you could definitely use it. Redirected restore or export/import are the alternatives.You could also use file copy (system offline is preferred).

Homogeous system copy for machine refreshment
Hello SAP expert,
I'd like to migrate our sap system() from power5 to power7, and the host name and the ip address will be kept unchanged on the power7 machine. We want to use homogeous system copy for db6 to migrate the sap system for testing. And after the testing, we want to just use db2 backup/restore to replace the database without system copy again. I know there are several steps in sapinst after db restore when I do a system copy, but the hostname, ip and user are unchanged, so I think there is no need to do a system copy again. Could someone help confirm that?
And we also want to seperate DB instance and CI to different machine, can we just do a db backup/restore for this case too? And I am not sure if some information about CI and diaglog instance is recorded, if so, I just concern there is some inconsistency if I just replace the database instead of do a homogeous system copy again.Hi Sunny,
Is those report very key? The ip, hostname, system user will keep unchanged and only the machine will be changed from AIX5 to AIX6, so after I do a whole homogeous system copy for the first time and all sap related files are already moved to the new machine, so the next time I want to restore the db with the backup taken on AIX5 to new machine directly without reinstall sap system, it will reserve some time and reduce the effort. Do you think if there is any problem if I do this? Thanks. -
Homogeneous system copy for SQL server 2005
Hi All,
I am currently investigating for the method to perform system copy for a PI system with SQL server 2005 database. Using the System Copy for SAP Systems Based on NW 7.0 SR2 ABAP+Java as guide, I can see reference to Note 151603. However, I am unable to get a copy of that note. Searching for the note from the official SAP Notes Search area indicated that it is currenytly only avaiable internally.
Would anyone know where I will be able to get a copy of that note?
Thanks,

PI is version 7.1 (not 7.0) - so you need to use a different system copy guide.

System copy for ABAP+JAVA system using SAPINST method
Dear support,
We have recently upgraded to ECC 6.0 system and we have been still doing system copy by using backup and restore method. I know its<b> wrong</b>.
which involves below steps , this old methos works fine for ABAP engine and evreything looks ok.But java engine will not work.
So we need to use SAPINST method as described in note 785848 and system copy guide available on OSS. But i am really not able to understand sequence
for tasks to be carried out in this SAPINST method.
<b>Can anybody list few sequence along with step by step procedure as i mentioned below for old system copy procedure.</b>
Is it really difficult to make that for <b>SAPINST</b> as everybody says refer to standard guide and note ?
Anybody if possible can make the same way as i did below , i think it would rather be small as far as my understanding after reading those docs.
Simple old system copy procedure works for ABAP is as:
Run the following command on source system.
a. Login as <sid>adm
b. svrmgrl
c. connect internal
d. alter database backup controlfile to trace;
e. exit;
f. Above command will generate a .trc file in /oracle/P01/saptrance/usertrace directory.
g. Copy the text from CREATE CONTROLFILE until the ( and paste it in to any new .sql or controlfile.sql file.
h. Copy the controlfile.sql to target system.
i. Edit the file and replace the entire source SID to target SID.
j. Edit the reuse database command with the set database command
Copy the aft generated during the backup file from the source system to target system. (/oracle/<SID>/sapbackup)
a. Change all the source <SID> to target <SID>.
b. Only don't change the backup volume name it must be target system <SID>.
c. Copy the above aft file name line from the source back<SID>.log to target<SID>.log file.
5. Shutdown the target server instance.
6. From this onwards all the command on the target system only.
a. Login as <SID>adm
b. run the SAPDBA
c. select J (Restore/Recovery)
d. select B (Full restore and recovery)
e. select A (Select backup of type)
f. Select the offline backup which you want to restore.
g. It will take some time to restore.
h. Once the database is restored login as <SID>adm and run the
i. svrmgrl
j. connect internal;
k. startup nomount (if the database is already mounted shutdown it using the shutdown command)
l. run the following command
m. @controlfile.sql (file name of the control file contains the CREATE CONTROLFILE statement)
n. After the run the above command it should give the "Statement Processed)
o. alter database open resetlogs.
I am really looking forward to see anybody take some time out to prepare this kind of step by step procedure.
It would be of greate help for all of us for performing system copy with sapinst method.
Looking forward for your support.
Best Regards,
AjitRHi,
As per the guide you need to do source system Technical Preparations, in that running the export preparation is also one. You need to run this first before you start the export, if and only if export will successful if preparation is successful.
Yes you need to create the export directory to take the export copy of source system, it may be any where in your server. It should be having 6 to 8 GB free space.No need to create the export directory in target system, after export is completed in the source system you copy the export directory to the target system.
<b>Target system</b>
Yes you need to take the back up file system and delete all the contents of the directory.
Yes it can be considered as fresh system installation but copy of source system.
Yes the process follows after you giving the export directory path .
Next screen you will get the database drop and recreate screen chouse the drop and recreate method
Next J2EE user name and password
Next DDIC password
Next you have to give kernel and oracle client dvd path
Next Parameter checking screen here if you are selected database drop and recreate you have to revise the oracle database system option
If you are selecting review next screen is database advance option you have to select the advanced option
Next you have to select following option to recreate
1 Sapdata directory mapping
2 Database instance file system
3 Create database parameter
4 Create tablespace
Next screen sapdata directory creating
Next screen you can just click next no need to change any setting
Next table creation
Next screen specify oracle instance directories
Next again parameter checking and last this is last screen
Next will be the execution screen

Setting Up the System Landscape for ESS
Hello Experts,
I am implementing ESS in portal.
I am in step of defining systems in portal for ESS/MSS.
Below is link I am following from help.sap.com
[Link|http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/en/5b/76a6d7fd3a4e91bfb422405bf3e04d/frameset.htm]
In above link it is mentioned that we have to define following systems :
SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
SAP_ECC_HumanResources
SAP_ECC_Travel
SAP_ITS_XSS
SAP_BSP_EREC
Additionaly according to below Article in SDN :
[Link|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/21eb036a-0a01-0010-25a3-b2224432640a?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
Following additional systems must be created :
SAP_ITS_EBU Looks similar to SAP_ITS_XSS above
SAP_R3_Financials
Now the basis person in my project has handed over to me following systems :
SAP_BSP_EREC
SAP_ITS_FND Name mismatch as FND is used in place of XSS or EBU
SAP_R3_Financials
SAP_WebDynpro_ESS Name mismatch as ESS is used in place of XSS
Now below two systems are altogether missing as per first link on help.sap.com
SAP_ECC_HumanResources
SAP_ECC_Travel
Please explain if it requires to be corrected or name mismatch and missing ststems would do.
Thanking you in anticipation.All the above names that you are referring to are not necessarily separate systems.
These are system aliases for a system object created in your portal via System Administration - System landscape.
So, if you have HR and Finance on the same backend server, then you need only one system with the related system aliases.
You will need SAP_BSP_EREC only if you are planning on using E-recruitment.
Similarly, you will need SAP_ITS_XSS only if you are planning on using any ITS applications.
It is pretty straight forward to change/correct the names of your system aliases instead of changing the usage of these aliases every where else.
SAP_ECC_HumanResources is absolutely necessary.
SAP_ECC_Travel is required if you are planning on using travel and expense related applications.
Also, note that SAP_WebDynpro_XSS should be the alias of the system where your webdynpro applications are deployed (typically the same portal server)

Question
What is the approach to change the logical system names for new SAP system?
a) just via tcode SCC4
b) via BDLS
c) other tcodes, reports
Thank you very much!
