System copy guide searched

Hello,
I have to do a system copy of an SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence system. Could someone provide me some tips and links to informations regarding the way of doing these kinds of copies with special interest in the differences of a normal system copy and a system copy with BI.
Thx in advance, Vanessa

System copy guide for Solution Manager 7.0 SPS15

Hello,
a new hardware is needed for our SAP Solution Manager 7.0 SPS 15. I will install a new SAP Solution Manager and do a system copy from the old hardware to the new one. There is no migration neccessary, because OS and DB will be the same.
Now I'm searching for some informations and guides to do a system copy of a SAP Solution Manager. All I found was a system copy guide of Netweaver 04s SR3/SR2 with informations about Java Usage Types but not for Diagnostics.
Are there any guides or howtos to do a system copy with SAP Solution Manager ABAP+JAVA? Does anyone have experiences and advices?
Kind regards,
Sascha Piotrowsky

> Looking forwards to this event I'm afraid of forgetting some dependencies or configurations which have to be changed also, like SMD-Agents configuration,s trusted connections, wiley introscope, e2e and so on.
Wily is not part of the copy - you will need to copy this "manually". The connections et al must be re-done...

System Copy Guide: Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst.

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to do Unicode conversion of ERP 2005 SR3 on Oracle/WS2003
The preparation steps are OK
When I execute the last Phase using Sapinst : "database instance export",
it finishes within one minute with the message "Database instance export has been completed succesfully"
but without exporting data.
I have follow up Unicode Conversion Guide and System Copy Guide System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 ABAP+Java.
What could be wrong here?
Thansk for your help
Martial

So you need to set an environment variable
SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME = <your-virtual-hostname>
for the user executing sapinst.

System Copy Guide for ECC 6.0 ABAP stack

Dear All,
I'm unable to find system copy guide for ECC 6.0, there are lots of guides present for NW Systems on the SMP, couldn't find any thing for ECC6.0 ABAP Stack.

AIX/Oracle system copy guide

Hi Experts,
I am preparing a system refresh (system copy) from production to test system via DB backup and restore.The two systems are on different AIX servers. The systems are running on SAP enterprise 6.20 on Oracle 9.2 and AIX.
I can only find the system copy guide for using R3load "Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP® Systems Based on SAP Web Application Server 6.20"
Where can I find the SAP guide for the system copy? Thanks in advance for any helps.

PI 7.11 sp6 system copy causes target sys to register with source

Experts,
We have a PI 7.1 (EHP1, sp6) PI system based on AIX 6.1 OS and Oracle 11g.
I recently did the standard PI system copy from a prod source (PIP) to a training target (PIT).
I used the most recenty PI system copy guide that is specific for PI 7.1 EHP1
I did not run into any major problems doing the steps of the itself.
I did the usual "post" steps, documented in the guide that really are done on any NW system.
Then I got into the specific "PI" post steps and that's where I now have a problem.
I could not run the "wizard for post copy" since I'm on 7.11sp6. Yes, I know they "downported" it but I don't have those latest LMtools type packages. Anyway, I'm OK with that.
I followed all the steps, fixing my RFCs, JCos, Destinations, cleaning up SLD, SLDAPICUST, creating new business systems...etc.
My big problem is with the exchange profile. Yes, it's easy to change all the SIDs and hostnames using the search tool for all the parameters in the exchange profile, but the one I COULD NOT CHANGE was the "ABAP Connection". In there right after the copy was the hostname of the prod system, the client, and the user PILDUSER. I attempted to put the hostname of my target (PIT) system, but I would get the error:
RFC 399 unable to connect
I'm certain the user is NOT locked and the password is correct for PILDUSER.
Worse yet, If I left the hostname in there that was set to "prod", then when I changed all the other values in the "parameters" section of the XI profile, then it actually changed my PROD system!!
If I keep the ABAP connection to PIT, then the entire exchange profile disappears for PIT.
Also, now my PROD system shows the PIT system as a "non-central adapter engine".
Ughh! I'm totally stuck. I'm not sure what to do.
It's as if the PIT (PI training) system somehow is linked to PIP (PI prod). It's like PIT doesn't think he is his own box...
Any ideas? I'm resisting opening a message because this will be so hard to explain to sap support.
--NICK

Hi Nick,
We went thru the same issue. Fortunately, it was between Dev to sandbox. I stopped the dev system and changed the exchange profile parameters to sandbox hostname and brought the Dev up to fix the issue.
Prod showing as Non-Central Adapter engine :- Check your Business System in SLD and In CIM Instances in SLD, check your XI Integration server assigned to right Business System.
Note 764176 - Error in XI due to inconsistent SLD contents :- helped me come over PI post step issues.
Thanks,
Arjun

If I keep the ABAP connection to PIT, then the entire exchange profile disappears for PIT.

+There is problem reading the hostname from the ClusterManager. This could lead to improper wsdl links.#
SLDCHECK shows this:
Function call returned exception code 3
Access to the XI Profile is currently disrupted.
I can't be the first person to run into this.
SO strange that I can actually plug in either my dev/QA or PROD hostname in the "ABAP connection" box and it WILL ACCEPT IT...but then, it registered my training system as a "non central adapter engine". I don't want that.
Any ideas?
Another issue is that the SLD PI information from the PIT system is missing the "Integration Directory". It has the other 5 entries...Adapter Engine, Domain, Integration Repository, Integration Server, RWB.
Thanks for reading this,

Heterogeneous system copy. Error in SMIGR_CREATE_DDL

Hello!
I perform a heterogeneous system copy of RHEL5/Oracle11/ERP6/0 > RHEL6/MaxDB/ERP6.0
I use the "System Copy Guide for SAP Systems Based on NW 7.0 SR3 ABAP + Java". At the stage "4.2 Generating DDL" statements is a problem. I'm doing "Call transaction SE38 and run the program SMIGR_CREATE_DDL."
But i get error:
Runtime Errors DATASET_NOT_OPEN
Exception CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE
Date and Time 20.09.2011 12:16:01
Short text
 File "/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST" is not open.
What happened?
 Error in the ABAP Application Program
 The current ABAP program "CL_SMIGR_DDL==================CP" had to be
 terminated because it has
 come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
What can you do?
 Note down which actions and inputs caused the error.
 To process the problem further, contact you SAP system
 administrator.
 Using Transaction ST22 for ABAP Dump Analysis, you can look
 at and manage termination messages, and you can also
 keep them for a long time.
Error analysis
 An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
 The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE', was not
 caught in
 procedure "WRITE_DDL_TO_FILE" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
 clause.
 Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
 exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
 The reason for the exception is:
 When accessing the file "/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST", the system recognized that
 this file is
 not open. Therefore, the file cannot be accessed.
How to correct the error
 Before the first access, the file must be opened using the ABAP language
 element "OPEN DATASET '/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST'" and after the last access,
 it must be
 closed using the language element "CLOSE DATASET '/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST'".
 If the error occurred in your own ABAP program or in an SAP
 program you modified, try to remove the error.
 If the error occures in a non-modified SAP program, you may be able to
 find an interim solution in an SAP Note.
 If you have access to SAP Notes, carry out a search with the following
 keywords:
 "DATASET_NOT_OPEN" "CX_SY_FILE_OPEN_MODE"
 "CL_SMIGR_DDL==================CP" or "CL_SMIGR_DDL==================CM003"
 "WRITE_DDL_TO_FILE"
 If you cannot solve the problem yourself and want to send an error
 notification to SAP, include the following information:
 1. The description of the current problem (short dump)
 To save the description, choose "System->List->Save->Local File
 (Unconverted)".
I forgot something to do?

> File "/EXPORT_DDL/SQLFiles.LST" is not open.
Make sure the user <sid>adm is permitted to write to that directory.

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.

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,
Wi

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

I tried a new instalation, after importing the profiles, and checking the INSTANCE_NAME, but got the same error.
Please, advice.
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.
Jorge

Thanks Manoj for your advice.
We had already checked the procedures, we are working based on the System Copy Guide: "System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SR3 ABAP+Java".
I had to mention that source and target systems are HP-UX, 11.23, Itanium and the DataBase is Oracle 10.2.02.
The copy was made from a Central System (ABAP + Java) to a High-Availability System (ABAP + Java), and the problem appeared when copying the Central Instance.
Thanks in adavance.

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

Johann

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

Hi Anshul,
First please refer System copy guide for successful procedure http://www.basisconsultant.com/j/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&layout=item&id=1&Itemid=185 .In addition please follow SAP Note 546006 - Problems with Oracle due to operating system errors

R/3 System Copy PRD -- QA Oracle 9

Hi all,
We need to perform a system copy of Production back to QA (4.7/6.40 kernel). My previous experience with a system copy was on a 4.6C system with Oracle 8 using R3COPY. I have just downloaded the latest system copy guide 'Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP® Systems Based on SAP Web Application Server 6.20' and for Oracle it says that backup/restore method is not recommended or support and to use R3LOAD. We are not keen to use this method as it requires a longer Production downtime for us (more than twice what would be required for offline backup), also we would need the space available on the disk.
Has anyone still used the backup/restore method as described in the 4.6C system copy guide with Oracle 9? I don't see why this method is not supported since for us it would be much easier.
Thanks
- Natalie

Hello,
Perhaps this notes can be of help:

On this notes you can find other interesting refering the same issue
Not much into system copies with the new tools, but I think it is possible to use backup/restore.
The only thing is that you will have a little "mess" -> the tablespace name will have the old "SID", same happens with the schema. Unless you have installed the system with this issue in mind and used a "neutral" schema, the note is ( I think )[url=http://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/617444]617444[/url]
