System copy other than sapinst.exe

Hi,
i have done system copy by using sapinst.exe. is any other method/tool available to do system copy? also, how can i do a system copy without copying all the users available in the system to the target system?
regards,
siva kumar

Hi,
First, export the users (if required authorizaion also) from the target system (Say DEV) first and after that start the system copy. Now, after the system copy the target system (DEV) will have user master and roles and profiles of source system (PRD). Now, as you do not want the user master of source system, now import the user master profile which was exported before system copy.
If you want user master along with roles and authorization then export profile SAP_USER otherwise if only users master is required choose SAP_UONL
Hope clarified.
Regards,
Sharath

  • Something other than uimport.exe

    For the last 16 years I have incorporated uimport in with my own coding to create user accounts and manage their access to servers. But it is limited to windows xp or earlier. I would like to use a different tool to do so. I have heard of ICE and LDIF as tools to do so. But have no Idea on how to use them and I am having hard time finding any details on how to set them up.
    Could some one pleas help?
    Thanks

    you may need to copy and paste into notepad.
    Here is a small snippit of the account cretion after all the filtering and formating, for one server.

    using uimport thisway allows me to create a CTL file that allows me to create home folders above the 8 character limit and store in in the home directory path. I can do them in bulk or single users.

  • C/C++ compiler other than cl.exe?(free for download?)

    Hi, i'm getting started with JNI. The author of the book i'm reading assumes i'm working the cl.exe(i'm a Windows XP user) compiler which comes with Visual C++, while i don't have Visual C++ and i don't want to buy it. Is there any free for download C/C++ compiler which could work efficiently to build code to work with JNI?
    Regards,
    Marco

    Go to msdn.microsoft.com and download the .NET framework SDK. It's a huge download (131 megs), but it includes command-line compilers for C/C++, C#, and Visual Basic, as well as the database engine.
    I believe this URL will take you there: http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?url=/downloads/sample.asp?url=/msdn-files/027/000/976/msdncompositedoc.xml

  • Is there any way to start/stop OBIEE system components other than OPMN

    We had some issues including OPMN into our watch dog process, does oracle provide start/stop scripts to manage system components or we have to rely on OPMN ?
    Appreciate your help
    ~Srix

    Check this link
    http://www.cool-bi.com/CMDline/Individualservices.php
    You can use ias-component name in the output to stop/start individual service
    ex:
    opmnctl startproc ias-component=coreapplication_obips1
    Hope this helps, pls mark as correct if helps

  • Error during Heterogeneous System Copy -  Phase 18 Import ABAP

    Hello gurus,
    I´m facing an error during the Target Installation in a Heterogeneous System Copy (Migration). The system SAP is a SAP ECC 6.0 SR3 (Unicode and Abap+Java).
    Source server:
    Operation System:  Windows 2003 Server x64
    Database: SQL Server 2008 SP01
    Target server:
    Operation System:  Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) X64
    Database: Oracle DB 10.2g (10.2.0.4)
    I already did the all procedures in export database and all that looks fine!
    At this point I´m running the system copy procedure through SAPInst on target server (RHEL / Oracle) but in phase 18 - Import ABAP the sapinst stops... (by the way in procedure bar, I can see "Import Monitor jobs: running 0, waiting 1, completed 0, failed 18, total 19")
    I checked three log files (sapinst_dev.log ; sapinst.log ; SAPSDIC.log):

  • Odd System Copy

    Hello Experts,
    I am performing a homogeneous system copy on linux w/ MaxDB.  The source system is really more like source systems.  Using one database instance (XDB), I have an ERP 6.0 EHP4 system (XS1) and an EP instance (JS1).  My first step was to export the database using the Database Manager; then I made the export available to the target system.  The system copy for the abap application server went without a problem.  Now I am having trouble with the J2EE system copy.
    My assumption was that the single MaxDB export contained both the ABAP schema (SAPXS1) and the J2EE schema (SAPJS1DB).  Also, I assumed since XS1 and JS1 are two separate instances sharing a single database instance, then I would also need to complete two system copies.  Were any of those two assumptions false?
    My hope was to skip the recovery w/ initialization step during the J2EE system copy since the DB containing the J2EE backup should already be loaded in the target database host.  The error I'm encountering on the J2EE system copy is "You can not use existing instance while installing with backup/recovery method."  Sadly, that error message is very straight forward and doesn't leave much hope to complete both system copies using this method.
    A system copy for both ABAP and J2EE stacks ins't the correct path, is it?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Zach Shay

    Markus,
    Update #1:
    It appears that sapinst will allow me to do a system copy of the J2EE stack via the first method.
    Standard System Copy / Migration (load-based)
    What is a bit queer on the whole situation is the wording that sapinst is presenting me.  sapinst asks me for a "Migration Export."  I supply the directory with the label, "JAVA."  Then sapinst asks me if I would like to use the existing database or create a new one.  It allows me to select use existing database (which is a step past what is allowed via Homogenous System Copy)!  However, sapinst then asks me for another Migration Export....  Unfortunately this Migration Export has the label "SAP:MIGJDMP:701:::*", and is a label not present in any of my export directories (or subdirectories).
    The labels I have from the ABAP and Java exports are:
    SAP:JMIG:701:*:*:*
    SAP:MIGSDM:701:MIGRATION:*:*
    SAP:MIGAPPS:701:MIGRATION:*:*
    SAP:MIG:*:EXPORT(1/:*:*
    Is this MIGJDMP Migration Export related to a database export via R3Load or something similar?  If so, how do I get this?
    \[reading more documentation...\]
    Thank you,
    Zach

  • NW04 system copy : we only need the abap stack

    Hello,
    We have a BW 3.5 Production environnement :
    Netweaver 04
    Oracle 9.2
    ABAP + JAVA stack have been initially installed on the same server but the java instance parameters have been since deactivated. The Java stack has never been used.
    Now, we're planning to install the same BW 3.5 QAS environnement (only the abap stack), configure it, and afterwards perform a typical homogeneous system copy (backup/restore) from the production environnement.
    Since we don't need at all the java part, do you think that could work ? Is there any risk of inconsistency ?
    Or do we have to install double a stack QAS enviroonement and then perform the system copy based on sapinst
    Thank you in advance for your help.
    Regards.

    You will have to perform following  steps
    1. Export the CI system on Source system
    2.  Clone the source Database to Target database. We have used IBM's Flash copy tool to accomplish that.
    3. On target install SCS , restore the DB and then import CI.
    We also have dual stack in ECC Production environment and we don't use JAVA as much.
    If you have any more questions, please let me know.
    Thanks
    Sumit Mathur

    Hi Satya,
                 Thank you for the reply. QA in our landsacpe was in use since 2008. Serveral times system refresh is carried out on our QA with production data but never came accross this issue.
                 Usually if the SAPINST.exe run is successfull, temperory licence will be installed and we will be allowed to login into the sytem with our user names normally and carry out post installation steps.
                 As the SAPISNT.exe is being terminated, temperory license is not being installed and we got to work around by including parameter to allow default sap* userid and password to login and install license and carry on with the post installation steps. To be frank this issue is not really a show stopper, but there seems to be an issue that is to be resolved.
    Thank you,
    Kind Regards,
    Bharani.

    Hi All
    These are the steps I had to perform when I faced the issue -
    Background:
    Faced the issue when I was exporting the DB instance (SQL 2000) using SAPINST.
    Steps:
    1. We are running NW04S Portal System.Copied the E:\usr\sap\DEV.... files from CI to DB server.
    2. Defined sapmnt/saploc shares for E:\usr\sap folder on DB server.
    3. Created the folder E:\usr\sap\DEV\SYS\exe\uc\NTI386\mssjdbc and copied the files base.jar,util.jar,sqlserver.jar,spy.jar files from E:\usr\sap\DEV\JC00\j2ee\jdbc folder.
    4. Retry the SAPINST. Final confirmation screen appeared.
    5. Checked all the parameters for correctness and clicked on start...export started and finished completely.
    All these steps I have done just looking at the log file.One thing I am not still clear is why SAPINST is looking for \usr\sap/...files/folder in DB instance instead of App server.
    Would appriciate if any one can clarify this.
    Thanks

  • 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

  • MSSQL Homogeneous System Copy : SAPINST cannot connect to default database

    Hello.
    We want to perform a homogeneous system copy, following Note 151603.
    We have attached the source DB (RP1) to the destination DB (RD4) following the above mentioned Note.
    Now, logged to the server as DOMAIN\rd4adm , we want to execute the SAPINST, as indicated in the Note 683447, but when giving the password for user rd4adm we get a pop up
    Cannot connect to R3SVIL\RD4 [SQL Server]Cannot open user default database. Login failed.
    R3SVIL is the server. Login is done with windows authentication (connected as domain\rd4adm)
    We cannot find a Note descibing this issue and how to fix it, must be something with user : does anybody have suggestion or solution?
    Thanks a lot,
        Dino

    Hi,
    did you apply SAP note 551915 - R/3 won't start after database restore or database copy
    also check Note 806925 - SQL Error 4064: Cannot open user default database

    Attached is Dennis Linam’s Audition – “Log File” and “Log – Last File”
    Contact information Dennis [email protected]
    Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
    Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
    created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion 
    DURIM - Okay.  I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
    If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]?  We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
    Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro?  If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
    I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

  • 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,
    AjitR

    Hi,
    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
    Reward points if usefull
