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.

too bad it took me so long to find you!

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 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.

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,
Avadhesh

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 using sapinst - Step Migration Export SAP:MIGSDM:700:*:*:*

Hi we are trying to do a system copy of a ABAP/ Java Addin - 70 SR3 from one system to another.
We took the sapinst option for Central BASED on ABAP and JAVA
We took the save restore option.
We are curretly stuck at the step Migration Export. Looking for the LABEL.ASC for
SAP:MIGSDM:700:::*
We took the java option to create the SDM export on the source system. My export location has the following :
LABELIDX.ASC
        JDMP
        SDM
        APPS
LABEL.ASC
SAP:JMIG:700:::*
Any ideas / suggestions?
Regards,
Brian

> I just started sapinst and selected "export central system based on ABAP + Java".
> There is an entry in the main export folder
> LABELIDX.ASC
> -ABAP
> -JAVA
>
> ABAP folder is empty
This is possible since you may have chosen the "database specific" copy. So the copy process will only pack the Java part which you will use later for the target system.
> JAVA folder has 3 files
> LABEL.ASC_
> - SAP:JMIG:700:::*
> LABELIDX.ASC
> -JDMP
> -SDM
> -APPS
Looks good!
If the export is finished you can start sapinst again on the target system, select again ABAP + Java and "database specific copy", the system will then start with the installation and stop at some point to restore the database. After that is done continue with sapinst.

Memory error while SYSTEM Copy using sapinst

Hi Experts,
I'm trying to do a system copy of portal sp14 from Dev to sanbox. I have exported from Dev and I'm in Sanbox phase 38 of 41 Install Java engine I'm getting following error.
Create SDM directories:

I thought I could change some heap size or other parameter using configtool, but it looks like it did not create j2ee directory where I could launch configtool.
Is there anyone who has faced this problem or have any idea how to resolve it?
Your answer is really appreciated and important.
Thanks in advance

System Copy using SAPINST

When we do system copy from one system on an existing system using SAPINST (Database independent method), Is it first necessary to delete the existing system, please advice.

I have read the guides available on it, but I was not able to get a clear understanding.
In system copy guide it says
If the target system already exists and you do not plan to perform an MCOD installation, delete the database on the target system before the import according to the corresponding description in the Additional Information section of the installation documentation for your SAP component.
If the database configuration of your database is stored in the file system, we recommend that you back these configuration files up before deleting the database.
I am little confused by it, does it mean delete complete system or database only

The system copy with Sapinst has changed the schema in oracle

Hi;
have done a copy Homogeneous of a system and after having all correct I have seen that has changed the name of the Schemas and the name of the tablespace.
the system is a PI NW2004S.
When the oraginal schema is SAPSR3DB, in the target system is SAPSR4DB, and all tables are here.
The tablespace SAPSR3DB in the target system is empty and the copy has created one tablespace SAPSR4DB
They are normal these changes?
thanks a lot

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. The source and target system are on the same win2000 host. I am getting below errors in the export stage of the system copy. I am following the sap doc: Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems based on SAP Web AS ABAP 6.40 SR1 .pdf
As per the doc the below are the main steps
1) Generate DLL-statements [Page 55] (Call transaction SE38 and run the program SMIGR_CREATE_DDL...Execute the program. The DDL statements are generated and are written to thespecified directory.)
2) Run SAPinst to export the database [Page 48].
3) Set up the target system [Page 60].
I am stuck at 2) with the below errors during the export.
For step 2, the sapinst asked me to enter
source <SID>
Source <DBSID>
Source schema: I gave this as SAP<SID>
no of process and alphabetic load.
Afer this...
R3ldctlExport.log reports the below errors

Also some of the other log files for other packages terminate with:" disconnected from db" in the middle of the export.
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

Portal Homogenous system copy

Hello Portal Gurus,
I have just made a system copy of my PRD portal to a sandbox portal using the homogenous system copy menthod. sapinst export and sapinst import.
Now we have a lot of systems connected to the portal, for eg ECC , BI for reports , APO for reports. Alsowe have trex and content management and KM connected to this portal.
When i bring up this portal , all the connections point to the old place, which means the sandbox portal now tries to connect to the ECC PRD system , since the EP PRD was originally connected to the ECC PRD system.
Does one of you have a consolidated list of things that need to be fixed on the portal after a system copy, including procedures on where these things toneed to be fixed ? for eg , how do i removed the ECC connecttion from ECC PRD and point it to ECC TRN ?
Regards
Shirish Joshi

Hi Shirish,
There are 2 importan things which need to be consider after doing SAP portal system copy.
1. Change all the system object points the production system.
2. Change all the jco setting which points to the production system.
Thanks
Anil
