1 Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Including Enhancement Package 1 Support Package 1
As of SAP NetWeaver 7.0, you can copy ABAP systems, ABAP+Java systems and Java systems in one run,
using either database-specific methods or database-independent methods. This document explains how
to perform a system copy for SAP systems based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 including Enhancement Package
1 Support Package 1 (SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP 1 SR 1).
1.1 Terminology
■ Homogeneous System Copy
During the system copy you use the same operating system and database platform as the original
system.
■ Heterogeneous System Copy
During the system copy, you change either the operating system or the database system, or both.
Heterogeneous system copy is a synonym for migration.
■ Source System and Target System
The SAP system containing the original database is called the source system and the system to
which the database copy is to be imported is called the target system. Their SAP system names
are abbreviated to SOURCE_SAPSID and TARGET_SAPSID (IBM i: source_<SID> and target_<SID>).
The terms source database and target database are also used in this description.
■ System Copy
Duplication of an SAP system. Certain SAP parameters might change in a copy. When you perform
a system copy, SAPinst installs all the instances again, but it uses a copy of the source system database
to set up the database.
■ Database Copy
Database-dependent part of the system copy.
■ Placeholders
Placeholders such as <SAPSID> are used in commands. They are used in the same way as in the SAP
system installation documentation. You must replace them with the values valid for your site.
1 Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Including Enhancement Package 1 Support Package 1
1.1 Terminology
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 5/116
The following additional placeholders are used:
Placeholder Meaning How to find out
<SAPSID> SAP system ID
<S_HOST> System name of the source host Command hostname
<T_HOST> System name of the target host Command hostname
<S_SAPSID> SAP system ID of the source system <SAPSID> of the original system
<T_SAPSID> SAP system ID of the target system <SAPSID> of the target system
<S_DBSID> Database ID of the source system <DBSID> of the original system
<T_DBSID> Database ID of the target system <DBSID> of the target system
<OS> Operating system name within a path
<DB> Database name within a path
<Technology> ABAP, Java, or ABAP+Java
1.2 Online Information from SAP
More information about system copying is available online as follows:
■ SAP System Copy & Migration page at http://sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/systemcopy.
■ SAP OS/DB Migration page at http://service.sap.com/osdbmigration.
In addition to the information contained on this page, check the SAP OS/DB Migration Planning
Guide that is available in the Media Library.
■ SAP Note 82478 SAP System OS/DB Migration
CAUTION
Only perform a system copy if you have experience in copying systems and thorough
knowledge of the operating system, the database, and the ABAP Dictionary. Only perform a
heterogeneous system copy if you are a certified system support consultant or a certified SAP
Technical Consultant.
NOTE
If you encounter problems during the system copy, create a customer message using the
application area BC-INS-MIG.
1.3 System Architecture
1.4 Restrictions
The target system installation consists of both the target database and target instance/application server
installations. For the scenarios below, the following holds:

1.2 Online Information from SAP
6/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
■ Only valid for: IBM DB2 for Linux and UNIX and Windows |
The option Deferred Table Creation is not supported for load-based system copies for SAP systems
that are not based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP 1 SR 1.End of: IBM DB2 for Linux and UNIX and Windows |
1.5 Constraints
■ Only valid for: SAP Solution Manager |
As of Support Release 4, your SAP Solution Manager 4.0 system must be a dual stack system if you
want to perform a system copy. If required, install a Java Add-In to your existing ABAP system
before you start the export.End of: SAP Solution Manager |
■ SAP does not support client transport as a system copy method. Transporting production clients
is not supported at all. You can use client transport for the initial setup of an SAP system
infrastructure. This documentation does not cover the client copy procedure.
■ This documentation does not describe how to export and import a database with the installation
tools for reorganization purposes. Use the appropriate tools for database reorganization, as SAP
does not support this installation option.
■ If you have made modifications in your development system and want to copy your quality
assurance or production system onto the development system, see SAP Note 130906.
■ This documentation describes how to copy data from one SAP system to another SAP system based
on SAP NetWeaver Application Server. This documentation does not describe how to copy data
from non-SAP systems to SAP systems.
■ If you want to convert a non-Unicode system to a Unicode system or perform the system copy of
a Unicode system, see SAP Note 551344.
■ For the development of Java applications, we strongly recommend that you follow the rules
mentioned below. Otherwise, we cannot guarantee that you can copy your Java engine later with
the SAP tools to change your underlying operating system and/or database system.
■ SAP does not support all data archiving operations after a system copy.
If you used data archiving in the source or target system, access to the created archive files from
the target system may not always be possible. For more information, see SAP Note 153433 and
System Landscape Optimization at http://service.sap.com/slo.
Access to archived files from the target system without a dedicated archive migration project is
only supported in the following cases:
● Your system copy clones a source system for nonproductive purposes, for read-only access to
the previously archived data from the target system (no reloading), and you do not store
archive files using ArchiveLink/CMS.
You can either copy all archive files to file systems that are not shared between the source and
the target system, or you arrange network access for appropriate archive file sharing.

1.5 Constraints
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 7/116
● The system copy is done to replace a productive system with a new productive system (for
example, hardware migration), assuming that the target system did not exist before and the
source system's operation is discontinued after the system copy.
You must not change the system ID during system copy, but arrange for file access and/or
ArchiveLink/CMS connectivity.
In all other cases, contact SAP SLO at http://service.sap.com/slo or
■ When you perform a system copy, all software units or usage types in the source system are copied
to the target system. This means that none of the usage types in the target system can be excluded
from the system copy, nor can you select usage types.
■ Dos and Don'ts for system copy:
● Do:
◆ Save configuration data and runtime data in the Java database only. If saving this data to
the file system level is unavoidable, you must use the Software Deployment Manager
(SDM) to save the data.
◆ Follow the Open SQL standard.
◆ Make sure that all communication runs through the database pool.
● Don't:
◆ Save any system and infrastructure-specific data in business objects. Use a pointer to the
central storage of such information, for example:
▶ SAP SystemID and SID (SAPSID =SID=system name)
▶ Host name
▶ IP addresses
▶ Services and ports
▶ Logical destinations and logical system names
▶ Other technical infrastructure names
◆ Use file system persistency.
◆ Set up dependencies between Java and ABAP.

2 Planning
This section describes how to plan your system copy.
You can use the system copy for:
■ Setting up system landscapes (where the SAP systems have different SAPSIDs).
■ Creating systems for testing, demonstration, training, and standby. Depending on the purpose of
the system, it might be advisable to use the same SAP system ID, even though this prevents you
from including the system in a system group for transports.
Only valid for: Oracle |
NOTE
You cannot create standby systems with a system copy.
End of: Oracle |
NOTE
You should perform upgrades in a test system first. this allows you to identify customer-
specific problems that might result from modifications.
NOTE
You can set up the SAP system infrastructure (development, quality assurance, and production
system) without making a system copy as follows:
■ Install all SAP systems, starting with the development system. Customize the development
system as described in the implementation documentation.
■ Transport the client-dependent and client-independent data to the quality assurance and
production systems.
However, if you do not follow this concept, you can also install a system, customize it, and then
perform a system copy.
When copying a system that contains production data choose the right time for the copy. This could
be a month-end or year-end closing.
CAUTION
Do not use NFS-mounted file systems because writing to NFS-mounted file systems might cause
corrupted dumps.
Required Documentation
■ Read the following SAP Note for up-to-date information:

2011-03-07 PUBLIC 9/116
SAP Note 1317500 (Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0
including Enhancement Package 1 Support Release 1)
■ The documentation System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Including Enhancement Package
1 Support Release 1 only describes the export of the source system in detail.
■ For the installation of the target system, you also need the installation guide for your SAP
application. Installation guides are available at http://service.sap.com/instguides .
Required DVDs, Tools, and Other Software
Make sure that all required DVDs for the system copy are available:
■ Required DVDs
● Installation Master DVD
NOTE
The DVD names are abbreviated.
You can find the full names of all media shipped with SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EhP 1 SR 1 in the
appropriate Media List for SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EhP 1 SR 11 at: http://service.sap.com/
installNW70 Installation Installation – SAP NetWeaver Systems Media List – SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP
1 Support Release 1 .
■ Order the right version of the installation kit before starting the system copy.
Make sure that the versions of the SAP system and the installation tools are the same on the target
and source systems. Exceptions are only allowed if they are described in an SAP Note.
NOTE
You can operate several SAP systems on a single host without encountering any problems.
Nevertheless, we recommend that you use a separate host for each system because an SAP
system upgrade might depend on an OS upgrade. If the SAP systems are on separate hosts,
you can upgrade them at different times.
CAUTION
The source system must be in a consistent state before you can copy it.
■ Check that you have the appropriate tool versions for your SAP kernel.
■ For a heterogeneous system copy, you need to get a migration key by generating it at http://
service.sap.com/migrationkey.
Creating A System Copy Plan
Create a plan to perform the system copy.
1. Consider the downtime of the source system (for preparations and copying) when planning the
system copy.
2. Perform a test run of the system copy. You can use the time taken by the test run to calculate the
system downtime:
2 Planning
10/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
■ If your target system will replace your source system, try to perform a complete test run. This
means that the entire database is exported from the source system, transferred to the target
system, and imported there. System downtime is approximately equal to the total test time
(that is, time for export, transport, and import).
■ If you do not want to replace your source system, a partial test run (export of the entire database
or parts of it) can be sufficient to calculate the system downtime. The source system is only
down for the time of the export.
Calculating the system downtime is particularly important for very large databases (VLDB)
or when tapes are being used. The test run is also to determine the amount of export data.
Choose the best data transfer method (for example, FTP or tape). We recommend that you
only perform read/write actions on local file systems.
3. Define a schedule for the test migration and the final migration.
Miscellaneous
■ In the event of a major change in hardware configuration (for example, new machine type,
new hard disk configuration, new file system type), consult your SAP-authorized hardware
partner.
■ Decide which system copy procedure you want to use:
● The database-independent procedure using SAP tools.
Use this method if database-specific methods are either not available or not suitable. For more
information, see Database-Independent System Copy [page 21].
● The database-specific procedure using tools provided by the database vendor
Some database vendors offer specific tools for copying a database. These tools allow you to:
◆ Restore a backup of one database (source database) in another one (target database)
(backup method)
◆ Unload the source database and load the data into the target database
For more information, see Database-Specific System Copy [page 53].
These methods are not supported for all database systems. Refer to the following table to check
which copy methods are available for your database system:

3 Preparations
Before you start the system copy, you must perform the following preparation steps:
3.1 General Technical Preparations
Procedure
To make a consistent copy of the database, you need to prepare the source system and perform some
subsequent actions on the target system. This is not necessary when performing a test run.
The following describes important preparations. For more information about SAP system
administration, refer to the SAP Online Documentation.
■ Before you start a system copy, check the minimum kernel patch level required by the support
package level of the source system. It might be necessary to replace the SAP kernel delivered with
the kernel DVD of the installation kit and installed during the installation of the target system
with a newer kernel patch level before starting the target system. If you have to replace the delivered
SAP kernel, you can do this after the installation of the central instance.
■ Before you start the export on your source system, check that your JAVA_HOME environment
points to a valid JDK version.
■ No canceled or pending update requests should be in the system. Check this by choosing Tools
Administration Monitor Update (transaction SM13).
If canceled or pending updates exist, you must update these again or delete them from all clients.
You can find out whether canceled or pending updates exist by checking if table VBDATA contains
any entries.
Find the canceled or open updates as follows:
1. Call transaction SM13.
2. Delete the default values for the client, user, and time.
3. Choose all update requests.
If canceled or pending records exist, you must update these again or delete them. Check
whether this action was successful using transaction SE16 for table VBDATA.
■ Set all released jobs from Released to Scheduled:
Tools CCMS Background Processing Jobs - Overview and Administration (transaction SM37)
You also need to do this for jobs that must run periodically (see SAP Note 16083). Select all jobs
(include start after event) as follows:
Job Released Scheduled
3 Preparations
3.1 General Technical Preparations
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 15/116
■ Adapt the operation mode timetable to make sure that no switching of operating modes takes
place while a system is being copied as follows:
Tools CCMS Configuration Operation mode calendar (transaction SM63)
■ Write down the logical system names of all clients:
1. If you plan to overwrite an existing system with a system copy (for example, the source and
target systems will both exist after the system copy), make sure you write down the logical
system names of all clients in the system that will be overwritten (transaction SCC4).
As the logical system names will be overwritten, in the event of differences you must change
them back to their original names (as they existed in the system that is overwritten) in the
follow-on actions after the system copy.
2. If you create a new system with a system copy (that is, create an upgrade test system), make
sure that the logical naming strategy for this new system is consistent with your existing logical
system naming convention. If you are still planning your BI (formerly BW) system landscape,
see SAP Note 184447.
3. If your system copy is used to replace hardware for the DB server, migrate to a different database
system or operating system (that is, source system for the copy is the same as the copy target),
no changes to logical system names are required.
■ Before the export, delete QCM tables from your system as follows:
1. Before deleting you must always check
● That the tables are consistent – no restart log or conversion procedure termination must
be displayed
● That the data of the original table can be read
● That application programs that use the affected original table run correctly.
2. Call transaction SE14.
3. Choose Extras Invalid temp. table
All QCM tables that can be deleted are displayed.
4. Mark the tables and delete them.
■ FI customers: You can perform an additional consistency check by running the job SAPF190 before
copying the source system, as well as after copying the target system, and then compare the results.
Make sure that no customer data is changed in the meantime. You can do this as follows:
Accounting Financial Accounting General ledger Periodic Processing Closing Check/count
Comparison
■ FI customers: You can further check consistency by running the jobs listed below before copying
the source system, as well as after copying the target system, and then compare the results.
CAUTION
Make sure that no customer data is changed in the meantime.
● RFUMSV00 (tax on sales/purchases)
● RAGITT01 (asset history sheet)
3 Preparations
3.1 General Technical Preparations
16/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
● RAZUGA01 (asset acquisitions)
● RAABGA01 (fixed asset retirements)
■ CO customers: You can perform an additional consistency check by running the report group
1SIP before copying the source system, as well as after copying the target system, and then compare
the results. Make sure that no customer data is changed in the meantime.
CAUTION
Prerequisites for an export:
Before performing an export, make sure that no incremental conversion is in progress.
To test if an incremental conversion is in progress, run transaction ICNV. If there are any table
entries in table TICNV, an incremental conversion is in progress. In this case, you have the
following options:
1. Defer the migration until the incremental conversion has finished.
2. Try to finish the incremental conversion by performing the following steps:
● If the tables are in state For conversion or in state Done, delete the entries by choosing Control
Delete Entry .
● If the tables are in any other state, you have to finish the incremental conversion. Choose
Assistant and proceed according to the online documentation.
CAUTION
Heterogeneous System Copy only:
Before you start the export of your source system, make sure that the tables TATGPC and
TATGPCA are empty. To do so, use your database utility and delete the contents of these tables
with the following statements:
DELETE from TATGPC
DELETE from TATGPCA
Normally both tables are empty. If you do not delete the contents of these tables, you will
encounter problems while importing the data to your target system because of non NULL
capable fields in these tables.

4 Database Independent System Copy
With the SAP installation tool SAPinst, you can export and import your database in a database-
independent format. SAPinst uses the R3load tool.
R3load generates a database export of all SAP objects that are defined in the ABAP Dictionary and
archives the configuration and components in the file system.
NOTE
Only valid for: IBM i5/OS |
On IBM i the database tools only export into the integrated file system (IFS). Although, the SAPinst
for IBM i runs on Windows it is not possible to export into the file system on Windows.End of: IBM i5/OS |
Constraints
R3load and Jload Restrictions
■ SAPinst generates a database dump of all SAP objects that are defined in the ABAP Dictionary
(R3load). Other objects are not exported by SAPinst.
■ For a consistent database the SAP system must be shut down (excluding the database!). The database
must still be running.
■ R3load only: Changes to database objects that cannot be maintained in the ABAP Dictionary
(transaction SE14), such as the distribution of tables over several tablespaces or dbspaces, are
lost after the system copy.
■ R3load only: Indexes longer than 18 characters are not allowed on the database to be exported.
System Copy Tools
■ Every installation service (dialog instance installation, for example) must have its own separate
installation directory whenever you start SAPinst.
■ 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.
Splitting STR Files
■ During the standard system copy process, all tables of the SAP system are grouped into packages,
whereby all tables with the same data class belong to the same package. The processing unit for
4 Database Independent System Copy
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 21/116
one unload/load process is a package. The packages usually differ in the number and size of
contained tables, resulting in varying unload/load runtimes. The overall runtime can be reduced
by creating packages of the same size, that is, creating packages with a similar processing time. You
can achieve this by splitting the default packages (one package per data class) into more smaller
pieces.
■ There are several ways to split packages. For a detailed description of the options, refer to the F1
help about the parameters prompted on the Split STR Files screen while running SAPinst to export
the database. The options can be used separately or – when using the new Java based splitting tool
– together.
■ “Splitting of STR Files” is part of the “Advanced Export Parameters” and is disabled by default.
Using the splitting tool parameters selected by SAPinst is a good starting point if you select the
splitting option and you have not performed any tests yet.
CAUTION
If you want to split STR files by the size based option, you must first create the EXT files for
the target database system. You can find the EXT files in your export dump directory,
subdirectory DB/<DBTYPE>, for example DB/ORA.
If you do not have EXT files, then you can only split by providing tables via input file.
Process Flow
For UNIX, Windows, or IBM i, refer to System Copy Procedure [page 22].
4.1 System Copy Procedure
This section describes the system copy procedure using R3load.
Procedure
Process Flow on the Source System (Export)

8. Before starting the export, the generated SQL files have to be copied from the specified directory
to the <instdir> directory of the export.
For additional database-specific information, see SAP Note 888210.
4.3 Preparation for Table Splitting
The R3ta tool processes large tables. Instead of exporting/importing one table with one R3load process,
the table is processed in, for example, 10 entities. Each entity can be processed by different R3load
processes. The advantages of splitting the tables are:
■ Large tables are processed in smaller packages. If the export or import of a table aborts with an
error, only the processing of the package where the error occurred has to be repeated and not for
the complete table.
■ The export and import of one table can be performed in parallel by starting several R3load processes
to work on some packages in parallel.
Prerequisites
■ The export and import have to be performed with the migration monitor when the table splitting
feature is used.
■ For the following databases, we recommend that you create an index on the column listed in the
hints file for the table you want to split before starting R3ta:
● DB2 for z/OS (Only create a temporary index if you want to perform an unsorted unload.)
● Oracle
For more information, see the paragraph Creating a Temporary Index.
Restrictions
■ Only tables that are described in the SAP dictionary can be split.
■ The following tables cannot be split:
● DDNTF
● DDNTF_CONV_UC
● DDNTT
● DDNTT_CONV_UC
● DDLOG (is never copied, but created empty in the target system)

more information about the Oracle PL/SQL splitter, see SAP Note 1043380.End of: Oracle |
CAUTION
The tables listed in this file have to appear in alphabetical order!
3. Start SAPinst.
4. Choose SAP NetWeaver System Copy Source System ABAP System <Database> <Unicode or Non-
Unicode> Table Splitting Preparation .
5. Specify SAPSID, <sidadm> password, the file that contains the split information, the export
directory, and the number of parallel R3ta jobs.
CAUTION
The specified path to the export directory must not contain blanks!
6. Continue with Next.
CAUTION
When doing a code page conversion (non-Unicode → Unicode; 4102 ↔ 4103), make sure not
to use a WHERE condition with the PAGENO column included. If the PAGENO column is
included in the WHERE condition, repeat the table splitting - either with different splitting
parameters or by defining a suitable column for this table using the R3ta_hints.txt.
7. Check in the export directory <export dump directory>/ABAP/DATA if *.WHR files have been
created for all tables that are to be split.
If no *.WHR files could be produced for some of these tables, create fewer packages for these tables:
1. Create a new, empty installation directory.
2. Define a new, empty export dump directory <temporary dump directory>.
3. Run the Prepare Table Splitting service again and provide an input file that contains only the
missing tables with a lower number of packages for each defined table.
If the *.WHR files have been created for the missing tables, merge these results with the results from
the first Prepare Table Splitting run:
1. Copy the *.WHR files from <temporary dump directory>/ABAP/DATA to <export dump
directory>/ABAP/DATA.
2. Add the lines from <temporary dump directory>/ABAP/DATA/whr.txt to <export dump
directory>/ABAP/DATA/whr.txt.
8. If required, create the temporary index on the source system's tables to be split.

This is not required if you perform a database export using the Oracle-specific method with the
Oracle PL/SQL splitter.End of: Oracle |
For more information, see the paragraph Creating a Temporary Index.
Parallel data export of a table is supported by all database platforms but parallel data import is not. If
the target database platform does not support the parallel data import, the migration monitor has to
be configured so that the data import processes the packages sequentially. For more information, see
Processing Split Tables.
Using Hints
With the file R3ta_hints.txt, you can instruct R3ta to use specific columns of a table to create a WHERE
condition. The file has to be located in the directory in which you start R3ta.
With one line in the file R3ta_hints.txt, you specify the table name followed by one or more column
names, separated by a blank. The columns have to be part of the primary key of the table. These
specifications are used by R3ta to create the WHERE condition.
A file R3ta_hints.txt with column hints for several tables is delivered with the Installation Master
DVD. After the Table Splitting Preparation, make sure you select the Split predefined tables checkbox and add
the R3ta_hints.txt file in the Split STR Files dialog box. If you want to modify this file, copy it from the
directory <IM_OS>/COMMON/INSTALL to the installation directory and adapt it according to your
requirements as soon as the Parameter Summary dialog appears, and before starting the processing phase.
Creating a Temporary Index

4.4 Preparing the Export
You can prepare the source system for the export using R3load and Jload, so as to enable parallel export/
import. For this purpose you need to create certain files.
The following steps are performed:
■ Creating the export directory structure
■ Creating database structure files (*.STR)
■ Updating database statistics (…)
■ Size calculation for the target database (*.EXT,DBSIZE.XML)
These export preparations are required, if:
■ You want to build up the target system to the point where the database load starts before the export
of the source system has finished.
■ Export and import processes should run in parallel during the system copy process.
Procedure
1. Run SAPinst to perform the Export Preparation service.
For more information, see Running SAPinst on UNIX or Windows to Perform the Export [page 31].
2. As soon as the export preparations have finished successfully, the complete export directory with
its structure and the generated files, which are required for building up the target system, have to
be transferred to the target host.
CAUTION
Make sure that the dump directory is not under the installation directory. or another
directory that contains installation information (such as the Installation Master DVD, the
Java DVD, or other export files).
Otherwise, SAPinst does not ask you to specify the export directory and automatically chooses
one that you may not want to use. In this case, SAPinst does not display the export directory
and you cannot change it.
You can choose one of the following methods:
■ Use the migration monitor with the FTP Copy option to transfer the files to the target instance.
■ Copy the export dump directory manually to the target host.
■ The export dump directory can be shared and thus made accessible on the target host.
In any case, make sure that the dump directory and its subdirectories and files are accessible for
user <sapsid>adm of the target system.
NOTE
For more information, see the documentation Migration Monitor – User’s Guide in the
MIGMON.SAR archive on the SAP Installation Master DVD.

4.5 Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst
Here you can find information about how to run SAPinst to perform the export on the source system:
■ Running SAPinst on UNIX or Windows to Perform the Export [page 31]
■ Running SAPinst on IBM i to Perform the Export [page 43]
4.5.1 Running SAPinst on UNIX or Windows to Perform the Export
This procedure tells you how to run SAPinst to export the database of your SAP system. SAPinst includes
a SAPinst GUI and a GUI server, which both use Java.
This section describes a standard export where SAPinst, SAPinst GUI, and the GUI server are running
on the same host. If required, you can perform a remote system copy with SAPinst instead, where
SAPinst GUI is running on a separate host from SAPinst and the GUI server. For more information, see
Performing a Remote Installation with SAPinst [page 102].
Note the following about SAPinst:
■ When you start SAPinst, SAPinst GUI and the GUI server are also started. SAPinst GUI connects
to the GUI server using a secure SSL connection and the GUI server connects to SAPinst.
Only valid for: UNIX |
■ SAPinst normally creates the installation directory sapinst_instdir directly below the temporary
directory. SAPinst finds the temporary directory by checking the value of the environment
variables TEMP, TMP, or TMPDIR. If no value is set for these variables, SAPinst uses /tmp as default
installation directory.
■ The SAPinst Self-Extractor extracts the SAPinst executables to the temporary directory. These
executables are deleted again after SAPinst has stopped running. If required, you can terminate
SAPinst and the SAPinst Self-Extractor by pressing Ctrl+C .End of: UNIX |
Only valid for: Windows |
■ SAPinst normally creates the installation directory sapinst_instdir, where it keeps its log files,
and which is located directly below the Program Files directory. If SAPinst is not able to create
sapinst_instdir directly below the Program Files directory, SAPinst tries to create
sapinst_instdir in the directory defined by the environment variable TEMP.
■ SAPinst creates a subdirectory for each installation service, called <sapinst_instdir>
\<installation_service>, which is located below %ProgramFiles%\sapinst_instdir.
■ The SAPinst Self-Extractor extracts the executables to a temporary directory (TEMP, TMP,
TMPDIR, or SystemRoot). These executables are deleted after SAPinst has stopped running.
Directories with the name sapinst_exe.xxxxxx.xxxx sometimes remain in the temporary
directory. You can safely delete them.

In the temporary directory, you can also find the SAPinst Self-Extractor log file dev_selfex.out,
which might be useful if an error occurs.End of: Windows |
CAUTION
If SAPinst cannot find a temporary directory, the installation terminates with the error
FCO-00058.
CAUTION
If you would rather create an installation directory manually, make sure that you create it
locally. Otherwise, you might experience problems when starting the SAP Java tools.
Only valid for: Windows |
■ If you want to terminate SAPinst and the SAPinst Self-Extractor, do one of the following:
● Right-click the icon for the SAPinst output window located in the Windows tray and choose
Exit.
● Click the icon for the SAPinst output window located in the Windows tray and choose File

■ Only valid for: Windows |
Before starting the export steps on the central instance of the source system, make sure that you
have at least the same amount of disk space available in \\SAPLOC\<SAPSID>\<InstanceName>\SDM
\program as is used in \\SAPLOC\<SAPSID>\<InstanceName>\root\origin. During the export
some archives are written to the program subdirectories and SAPinst aborts if there is not enough

During the export, some archives are written to the program subdirectories and SAPinst aborts if
there is not enough space.
■ Make sure that the DISPLAY environment variable is set to <host_name>:0.0, where
<host_name> is the host where the SAPinst GUI is displayed.
■ Make sure that your SAPINST_JRE_HOME environment variable is set to a valid Java Runtime
Environment (JRE).
■ Only valid for: AIX |
If the operating system is AIX 64-bit, make sure that the PATH variable points to a JDK/JRE for AIX

Procedure
1. Start SAPinst from the SAP Installation Master DVD as follows:
Only valid for: UNIX |
Choose one of the following ways:
■ Using the default installation directory (recommended)
Enter the following commands:
cd <Installation_Master_DVD>/IM_<OS> ./sapinst
SAPinst creates a directory called sapinst_instdir, which is the current working directory
for your installation, below the temporary directory of your operating system.

2011-03-07 PUBLIC 33/116
CAUTION
Make sure that your current working directory is not an IM_<OS> directory belonging
to another operating system.
For example, the following causes an error:
$ cd /sapcd2/IM_HPUX_IA64
$ /sapcd2/IM_HPUX_PARISC/sapinst
To correct this, enter the following:
$ cd /sapcd2/IM_HPUX_PARISC
$ /sapcd2/IM_HPUX_PARISC/sapinst
CAUTION
Make sure that your operating system does not delete the contents of the temporary
directory /tmp or the contents of the directories to which the variables TEMP, TMP, or
TMPDIR point, for example, by using a crontab entry.
■ Using an alternative installation directory
If you want to use an alternative installation directory, set the environment variable TEMP,
TMP, or TMPDIR.End of: UNIX |
Only valid for: UNIX |
NOTE
■ If you use virtual host names for the primary application server or the database instance
or both (for example, in a high availability environment), start the export with the
property SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<virtual host>.
■ During the installation, the default ports 21200 and 21212 are used for communication
between SAPinst, GUI server, and SAPinst GUI. SAPinst uses port 21200 to communicate
with the GUI server. The GUI server uses port 21212 to communicate with SAPinst GUI.
You get an error message if one of these ports is already in use by another service.
In this case, you must execute SAPinst using the following parameters:
SAPINST_DIALOG_PORT=<free_port_number_sapinst_to_gui_server>
GUISERVER_DIALOG_PORT=<free_port_number_gui_server_to_sapinst_gui>
■ To get a list of all available SAPinst properties, start SAPinst as described above with the
option –p: ./sapinst —p.
End of: UNIX |
Only valid for: Windows |
■ Double-click sapinst.exe from the following path:
<DVD_drive>:\IM_WINDOWS_<platform>
SAPinst GUI normally starts automatically by displaying the Welcome screen.
However, if there is only one component to install, SAPinst directly displays the first input
dialog without presenting the Welcome screen.

After you have entered all required input parameters, SAPinst starts the export and displays the progress
during the processing phase.
Troubleshooting
If an export process aborts due to a hardware failure (for example, file system full, power outage,
operating system crash), you have to repeat the export of the complete package. Remove the dump
files <package>.<nnn>, the TOC file <package>.TOC, the log file <package>.log and make sure that
all tables in the TSK file <package>.*TSK* have the status flag 'xeq' or 'err' set.
■ If there is not enough disk space in the export directory, the R3load database export fails. You can
then find error messages in the log files SAP*.log.
You can then move the dump files that have been created from the file system in which the export
directory is located to a different file system during the export. It is currently not possible to
distribute the export over different file systems automatically.
■ If an error occurs during the dialog phase, SAPinst:
● Stops the export.
● Displays a dialog that informs you about the error.
You can now view the log file directly by choosing View Logs.
Finally, you have to abort the export with OK and try to solve the problem.

4.5.2 Running SAPinst on IBM i to Perform the Export
4.5.2.1 Preparing the Windows Host for the SAP System Installation
The Java-based SAPinst graphical user interface (SAPinst GUI) requires a Java Development Kit (Java™
2 SDK, Standard Edition) with graphical capabilities (AWT, Swing). Since IBM i does not provide a
graphical user interface, you must install the JDK on a Windows host to perform the installation with
SAPinst.
4 Database Independent System Copy
4.5 Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 37/116
Prerequisites
To prepare the system for SAPinst and SAPinst GUI you need to do the following:
■ Necessary operating system versions: Windows NT/2000/2003/XP
■ Check your Java Runtime Environment (JRE) on the host where SAPinst GUI runs, because the
JRE cannot be integrated into the SAPinst GUI executable for all platforms due to licensing issues.
■ Set the system path if you install on Windows.
Procedure
The SAP J2EE Engine requires a Java Development Kit (Java™ 2 SDK, Standard Edition). Therefore,
make sure a valid JDK version is installed on every host on which you want to install an SAP instance
including the SAP J2EE Engine.
For more information about the JDK versions that are released for the SAP Web Application Server,
SAP components based on SAP Web AS and the SAP J2EE Engine, see http://service.sap.com/
platforms Product Availability Matrix SAP NetWeaver SAP NetWeaver '04 JSE Platforms
NOTE
■ JDK is not part of the SAP shipment. If necessary, you need to download and install it.
■ To check the version of an already installed JDK, enter:
java -version
■ If you have more than one Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed on your system (for example,
you have two JDKs with different versions installed), make sure that the JAVA_HOME
environment variable is set to the valid <JAVA_HOME> directory. Make sure that %JAVA_HOME%
\bin is included in your system path.

4.5.2.3 Installing TMKSVR and Creating an Installation Share
The TMKSVR is the interface between IBM i and Windows for the installation with SAPinst. SAPinst is
running on Windows, but has to install the product on IBM i. This means that all actions required for
IBM i are initiated remotely on Windows but executed locally using the TMKSVR. The communication
is done using TCP/IP.
In addition, an installation share on the IBM i host needs to be created and mapped to the Windows
installation host, which is done automatically by the TMKSVR.
The TMKSVR has to be installed and an installation share has to be created on all IBM i hosts where
instances of an SAP system should be installed.
Prerequisites
■ An FTP server running on IBM i
■ You must prepare a user. For more information about how users are prepared, see Preparing a Windows
User Account and IBM i User Profile [page 38].
■ The Installation Master DVD must be inserted in the DVD drive of your Windows installation host.
■ If you have downloaded the DVDs from SAP Service Marketplace, the downloaded Installation Master
DVD must be available on your Windows installation host.
■ Make sure there is no system variable LANG defining a LOCAL on your IBM i host where you want
to install your SAP system. To find out if this variable can be de-activated during the installation,

4.5.3 Restarting R3load Processes
The state file allows package states to be manually updated to restart failed R3load processes.
EXAMPLE
For example, if package processing failed and the package state has the value –, the state can be
set to 0 and processing of the package is restarted.
Procedure
■ To restart package processing, set the package state from – to 0.
■ To skip package processing, set the package state from 0 or – to +. (This is not recommended,
because it can cause inconsistent data files or database content.)
■ If the package is currently being processed (the package state is ?), then any manual modifications
to the package state are ignored.
■ Sockets only: You cannot restart processes.
Restarting R3load Processes Using the Socket Option
There are four possible situations where an R3load restart may be required.
First of all, you need to cancel the R3load process. If one of the corresponding R3load processes (export
or import) is still running, cancel it as well. Then restart SAPinst to continue with the system copy. To
continue with the system copy proceed as follows:
■ If both the import and the export are completed successfully, there is nothing to do.
■ If the export was completed successfully, but the import is canceled with errors, proceed as
follows:
● If the export was successful but the import was canceled when creating the index or the primary
key, set the status for export_state.properties from '+' to '0'.
● If the export was completed successfully but the import was canceled when loading the
table content, set the status
◆ for export_state.properties from '+' to '0'
◆ for the TSK file of the export from 'ok' to 'err'
■ If both the export and the import are canceled with errors, proceed as follows:
4 Database Independent System Copy
4.5 Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 47/116
● If the errors in export and import relate to the same table, there is nothing to do.
● If the errors relate to different tables, set the status of the first object with errors (export as
well as import) in the TSK file and in the *state* file to 'err'.
EXAMPLE
Export Import
Table name Status Table name Status
TAB_1 ok TAB_1 ok
TAB_2 err TAB_2 ok
TAB_3 xeq TAB_3 err
TAB_4 xeq TAB_4 xeq
The first object with errors here is TAB_2 (export). That means that in the import TSK
file the status for TAB_2 must be set from 'ok' to 'err'. The entry in the *state* file also
must be set from '+' to '0'.
■ If the import is completed successfully, but the export was canceled with errors, you can set
the status in the export_state.properties from '-' to '+'.

5.1 Oracle-Specific Procedure
Purpose
In an SAP system environment, you can create a homogeneous copy of an Oracle database by copying
database files. This method is suitable for creating an exact copy of an existing database. The source of
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.1 Oracle-Specific Procedure
54/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
the copy is a complete data backup of your source database. You can use an offline backup, an online
backup, or the file system of your source host.
You use SAPinst for the installation on the target system host as described in the installation
documentation for your SAP component. Only the SAPinst steps for setting up and loading the database
content are different.
Advantages
■ You can use existing offline or online backups.
■ This method is faster than the R3load and Jload method.
Disadvantages
■ Backup/copy of database files in a heterogeneous environment is not possible because the hardware
of the source and target systems must be binary-compatible.
■ Source system host and target system host must be different.
■ You must shut down the SAP system and the database when you create an offline backup manually
or an offline backup with BR*Tools.
■ You cannot change the database schema and the table space names.
Prerequisites
■ You must use the same Oracle release and patch level for your database in the source and target
system.
■ You must have prepared your system for SAPinst [page 17].
■ The classes12.jar must exist in the <ORACLE_HOME>/jdbc/lib directory (installed using a
standard Oracle installation).
■ If your source system is an ABAP only system, make sure that JRE version 1.4.1 or higher is installed
on the database instance.
■ The JAVA_HOME environment variable must point the JRE directory.
■ For security reasons, the source and target systems must run on different hosts.
■ The source and target systems must be binary compatible.
NOTE
Note that you can also perform a system copy from 32-bit systems to 64-bit systems and vice
versa (same operating system assumed) even if source and target system are not binary
compatible.
If your source system uses the US7ASCII character set, you must choose this character set when
installing the target system. SAPinst prompts for the character set during the installation (key: Database
Character Set). The installation default is WE8DEC or UTF8 for Unicode systems. To find out the
character set used by the source system, connect to the source database as user sap<schemaid> or
sapr3 with sqlplus and enter: SELECT * FROM V$NLS_PARAMETERS;
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.1 Oracle-Specific Procedure
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 55/116
5.1.1 Generating the Control File Structure
The OraBRCopy Java tool writes a file CONTROL.SQL to the current working directory, which can be used
without further adaptations on the target system.
For more information about the OraBRCopy tool, see the documentation ORABRCopy.pdf, which is part
of the OraBRCOPY.SAR archive.
Prerequisites
RECOMMENDATION
We recommend that you shut down the SAP system before you perform the following steps. The
database must still be running.
Procedure
1. Create an installation directory <INSTDIR> (UNIX: with permissions 777) on the source system.
2. Copy the ORABRCOPY.SAR archive from the SAP Installation Master DVD to the installation directory
and extract it using SAPCAR.
You can find the archive in the following directory on the Installation Master DVD:
Only valid for: UNIX |
<DVD-DIR>:/COMMON/INSTALL/ORA/ORABRCOPY.SAR
End of: UNIX |
Only valid for: Windows |
<DVD-DRIVE>:\COMMON\INSTALL\ORA\ORABRCOPY.SAR
End of: Windows |
3. Make sure that all redo log groups are archived
4. Start the OraBRCopy tool as an OS user with Oracle DBA privileges:
user ora<dbsid>
user <sapsid>adm
■ If you perform an offline manual copy, enter the following commands:
● On UNIX:
./ora_br_copy.sh –generateFiles –forceLogSwitches —targetSid
<TARGET_DBSID> —password <system's password> —listenerPort <listener port>
● On Windows:
ora_br_copy.bat –generateFiles –forceLogSwitches —targetSid <TARGET_DBSID>
—password <system's password> —listenerPort <listener port>
The tool creates the files CONTROL.SQL, CONTROL.TRC and init<targetSID>.ora in your
installation directory, shuts down and restarts the database and performs the required log
switches.
■ If you perform an offline or online backup using BR*Tools, enter the following commands:
● On UNIX:
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.1 Oracle-Specific Procedure
56/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
./ora_br_copy.sh –generateFiles —targetSid <TARGET_DBSID> —password

● On Windows:
ora_br_copy.bat –generateFiles —targetSid <TARGET_DBSID> —password
<system's password> —listenerPort <listener port>
NOTE
During the online backup, the database must be up and running. To ensure this, this
command must not contain the parameter —forceLogSwitches.
The tool creates the files CONTROL.SQL, CONTROL.TRC and init<targetSID>.ora in your
installation directory, and performs the required log switches.
NOTE
If an error occurs, check the log file:
<INSTDIR>/ora.brcopy.log

■ Creating an Offline Backup Manually [page 60]
■ Creating an Offline or Online Backup with BR*Tools [page 61]
5.1.2.1 Creating an Offline Backup Manually
Procedure
There are different possibilities to prepare the actual transfer of the database files:
■ If you have an up-to-date offline backup, you can use it (provided that redo logs were cleaned
up with forced log switches).
■ If you want to transport the database file (for example, on tape) or if you have to perform the
database shutdown at a certain time, stop the database (normal shutdown) and perform a complete
offline backup. You can use the trace file CONTROL.TRC created by OraBrCOPY to determine the file
system trees that have to be saved.
■ You stop the database (normal shutdown) and copy the database files when the actual transfer to
the target system takes place. You do not have to perform any preparations for the actual transfer
now. Proceed with the next step.

60/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
NOTE
If you choose this manual offline backup method, you also have to restore the database files
on the target system manually. For more information, see Restoring the Database Files on the Target
System Manually [page 64].
5.1.2.2 Creating an Offline or Online Backup with BR*Tools
You can use any backup strategy supported by BR*Tools as the basis for a system copy: offline or online,
with or without BACKINT, with or without RMAN, complete or incremental, and so on. The backup
strategy must simply be valid for restore and recovery. This means that a complete restore and recovery
of the source database must be possible. In addition for BACKINT and RMAN, the external backup
tools must be configured so that a restore is possible on the target host.

5.2 SAP MaxDB-Specific Procedure
In an SAP system environment, you can create a homogeneous copy of an SAP MaxDB database by
using the backup and restore method. This method is suitable for creating an exact copy of an existing
database. The source of the copy is a complete data backup of your source database.
The SAPinst tool is used for the installation on the target system host as described in the installation
documentation for your SAP solution. In SAPinst you select the backup and restore method as the
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.2 SAP MaxDB-Specific Procedure
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 65/116
database installation method. SAPinst stops before the database instance initialization and asks you to
perform the recovery on the target database. After you have performed recovery and post-recovery
activities you can continue the installation in SAPinst.
This description is not valid for the liveCache system copy.
Advantages
■ You can use existing offline backups.
■ This method is faster than the database-independent method using R3load or Jload [page 21].
Disadvantage
You can only copy between systems with the same byte order. For more information, see below.
Prerequisites
■ Byte order – little-endian or big-endian
You can use the backup and restore method to copy systems with the same byte order. That is,
you can copy a system based on little-endian to another system based on little-endian. You can
also copy a system based on big-endian to another system based on big-endian. Check SAP Note
552464 to find out which processor and operating system combination uses which byte order.
■ Data backup
You perform the complete data backup of your source database.
■ Recovery tool
You are using the SAP MaxDB Database Manager (DBMGUI) version 7.5.0 Build 12 or above.
You can find more information on DBMGUI here:
http://maxdb.sap.com/currentdoc/default.htm Tools Database Manager GUI
■ Database Software
The database software on the target host must have the same version as the software on the source
host. The build number of the software version on the target host must be greater than or equal
to the version on the source host.
■ Size of the data on the target system
The size of the target system must be greater than the used space on the source system. You can
find the size of the used pages on the source system as follows:
dbmcli —d <database_name> —u <dbm_user>,<password> —n <database_server> —u SQL
sap<sid>,<password> sql_execute 'SELECT USEDPERM FROM SERVERDBSTATISTICS'
The result of this query is the amount of used space, expressed as the number of 8 KB pages. To
calculate the used space in MB, divide this value by 128. When SAPinst prompts you, configure the
database data volumes according to this value.
■ JRE
You must have installed JRE version 1.5 or higher on your system.
The JAVA_HOME environment variable must point to the JRE directory.
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.2 SAP MaxDB-Specific Procedure
66/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
Process
1. Do the following on the source system:
1. If you do not already have a suitable recent complete SAP MaxDB backup, create a complete
data backup using the DBMGUI tool:
DBMGUI Backup Backup Wizard Complete
2. Make the backup medium available on the target host.
2. Do the following on the target system:
1. To install the new system you start SAPinst as follows:
<SAP Product> Software Life-Cycle Options System Copy SAP MaxDB Target System <Central
System | Distributed System | High-Availability System> .
During the installation of the database instance, SAPinst stops in the Perform Database Recovery
screen before database initialization and asks you to perform the data recovery.
2. Start the data recovery wizard from DBMGUI
1. Register your database instance in the DBMGUI
2. Check that the database instance is in the admin state.
3. Choose Recovery Recovery with Initialization ...
4. In type of recovery, select Restore a medium.
5. Specify the backup medium.
6. Start the restore procedure.
NOTE
The recovery wizard does not start the recovery immediately. It initializes the database
instance first. It takes some time for the database server to format the database volumes.
3. After the restore, check the state of the target database instance and change the database state
to online if it is not already in online state.
4. Delete the entries from the following tables to make sure that information about the backup
history for update statistics in the Computing Center Management System (CCMS) from the
old system does not appear in the new system:
CNHIST, CNREPRT, CNMEDIA, DBSTATHADA, DBSTAIHADA, DBSTATIADA, DBSTATTADA,
SDBAADAUPD
5. Continue with SAPinst or restart it if you stopped it during the recovery.
6. After installation is complete, you maintain the database connection for CCMS. For more
information, see SAP Note 588515.End of: MaxDB |

5.2 SAP MaxDB-Specific Procedure
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 67/116
Only valid for: Windows | MS SQL Server |
5.3 MS SQL Server-Specific Procedure
This section describes how to perform a homogeneous system copy of an MS SQL Server database by
using the backup/restore method, or the detach/attach method in an SAP environment. The SAPinst
installation tool supports both methods.
The backup/restore method and the detach/attach method have the following advantages compared
to the R3load method:
■ You can use an existing backup.
■ These methods are much faster than the database-independent method [page 21].
NOTE
● For more information about the system copy procedure, see SAP Notes 193816 and
151603.
● With SQL Server, you can use backup images across the platforms I386, IA64, x64. That
is, you can make a backup on one type of platform and use it on another type.
● You can attach SQL Server 2000 files to SQL Server 2005 but not vice versa.
Process1. Detach the database files from the source system database or create a backup and copy the files to
the target system.
2. Attach the database files or restore the backup of the source database on the target database server.
3. Run SAPinst to install the target system by choosing the following on the Welcome screen:
<Your SAP system> Software Life-Cycle Options System Copy MS SQL Server Target System <system
variant> <technical stack>
NOTE
■ The target system is installed using the exports from the source system.
■ Choose the installation services in exactly the order they appear. For more information,
see the MS SQL Server installation guide for your SAP system at http://
service.sap.com/installnw70.

5.4 IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows-Specific Procedures
The database-specific procedure for the creation of a system copy is based on a restore of an existing
online or offline backup. Therefore, this method is also referred to as backup/restore procedure. Since
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.3 MS SQL Server-Specific Procedure
68/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
a DB2 backup can be used cross-platform within certain limitations (see below), this method is not
limited to the homogenous system copy only.
An SAP system copy with a DB2 database can be also created if more advanced techniques like file system
snapshots are available. The necessary procedure in this case is called database relocation. The database
relocation procedure differs significantly from the backup/restore procedure and is not described in
this guide.
For more information, see the Database Administration Guide: SAP on IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows,
section db2inidb Option: as snapshot.
SAPinst is used for installation on the target system host as described in the installation documentation
for your SAP component. Before starting SAPinst on the target system make sure that all prerequisites
for the SAP system installation are met. Especially, make sure that the relevant file systems are available.
For more information, see the appropriate installation guide at http://service.sap.com/
installnw70 Installation – SAP NetWeaver Systems
In an ABAP system, only the SAPinst steps for setting up and loading the database are replaced by a
database restore.
Advantages of the Backup Method
■ You can use existing online and offline backups.
■ Using the backup method is faster than the database-independent method [page 21].
Disadvantages of the Backup Method
■ You cannot change the name of the database schema. The name of the database schema will be
the same as that of the source system. This implies that the name of the database connect user does
not change either.
■ You cannot copy an individual MCOD component to another system. You can only copy the
complete system.
Prerequisites
■ It must be possible to restore the backup of the source system on the platform of the target system.
NOTE
With DB2, you can use backup images cross-platform within certain limitations. If you want
to use the backup/restore method between different platforms, you must follow the
additional instructions in SAP Note 628156.
For more information about cross-platform backups, also see Backup and restore operations between
different operating systems and hardware platforms in the IBM DB2 V9.1Information Center at http://
publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/ v9/topic/com.ibm.db2.udb.admin.doc/
doc/c0005960.htm.
■ If errors occur when restoring the backup on the target system, the complete restore must be
repeated.
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.4 IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows-Specific Procedures
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 69/116
Process
1. You perform an online or offline backup.
NOTE
If you use an online backup to copy your system, a roll forward of your database is required
after the database restore on the target system. As a prerequisite, the respective database logs must
be accessible. We therefore recommend that you include the necessary log files in the backup image.
To do so, use the INCLUDE LOGS option of the BACKUP DATABASE command. Note that as of DB2
V9.5, logs are by default included in an online backup.
2. To create a target system, run SAPinst on the target system host by choosing the following on the
Welcome screen:
<Your SAP system> Software Life-Cycle Options System Copy IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
Target System Installation <system variant> <technical stack>
Perform the installation options in the given sequence and follow the instructions on the SAPinst
dialogs. SAPinst prompts you to perform the database restore during the installation phase.
CAUTION
Be aware of the following constraints when using the backup method for a homogeneous
system copy:
■ Since you cannot change the name of the database schema, you cannot change the
connect user either. During the dialog phase you have to make sure that you enter the
name of the connect user exactly as you did on your source system.
■ The tablespace names remain the same during the database restore. However, you can
change them after the installation.
■ If you want to change the name or the location of the DB2 container on the target system,
you have to adapt the DB2 container paths or names in the redirected restore script and
then perform a redirected restore. For more information, see the documentation Database
Administration Guide: SAP on IBM DB2 Universal Database for UNIX and Windows, section Usage of
Tool brdb6brt.
3. Multi-Partition Database Environments only: Add database partitions
If you copy a system with multiple database partitions, the target system must have the same
number of partitions as the source system. For more information, see Enabling database partitioning in
a database in the IBM DB2 V9.1 Information Center at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/
infocenter/db2luw/v9 /topic/com.ibm.db2.udb.admin.doc/doc/t0004896.htm
4. Restore your database.
To restore your database, you can choose between one of the following options:
■ Simple database restore
To perform a database restore, use the DB2 RESTORE command. For more information, see the
IBM DB2 documentation DB2 Command Reference.
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.4 IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows-Specific Procedures
70/116 PUBLIC 2011-03-07
NOTE
With a simple restore, you cannot change the name or the location of DB2 containers.
■ Redirected restore
This is the recommended method.
A redirected restore allows you to change the name or the location of the DB2 container. To
perform a redirected restore, you use the DB2 RESTORE DATABASE command with the REDIRECT
GENERATE SCRIPT option. For more information, see RESTORE DATABASE command in the IBM
DB2 V9.1 Information Center at https://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/
v9/topic/com.ibm.db2.udb.admin.doc/doc/r0001976.htm.
Alternatively, you can use the tool brdb6brt that retrieves a database backup and creates a
CLP script to restore this backup image. Since brdb6brt needs to connect to the source system,
the source system must be available. For more information about how to use the tool
brdb6brt, see Redirected Restore Using brdb6brt in the Database Administration Guide: SAP on IBM DB2
Universal Database for UNIX and Windows.
If you have used an online backup, you have to make sure that you have access to the log files that
were created during the online backup. You also have to perform a roll forward operation to bring
the database into a consistent state.
You can now continue with the installation.
5. To adhere to the SAP standard naming conventions for tablespaces, we recommend that you
consider renaming the tablespaces after the installation to reflect the new system name. To rename
a single tablespace, enter the following command:
db2 rename tablespace <old name> to <new name>
EXAMPLE
db2 rename tablespace <SAPSID_SOURCE>#STABD to <SAPSID_TARGET>#STABD
If you use the deferred table creation function, you also have to execute the following command
for each renamed tablespace using the db6util tool:
db6util -rtvt <old tbs> <new tbs>
For more information, see SAP Note 1227165.
CAUTION
Make sure that you use an up-to-date version of the db6util tool. You require at least a
version that supports the option -rtvt. To check the command options of the db6util tool,
enter the following command:
db6util –h
In addition, you have to update the tablespace names in tables TSDB6, IADB6, and TADB6. To
rename all tablespaces in the respective tables according to the standard naming conventions, use
the following commands:
■ For table TSDB6, enter the following SQL command:
5 Database-Specific System Copy
5.4 IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows-Specific Procedures
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 71/116
update <connect_user_name>.tsdb6 set tabspace = '<SAPSID_TARGET>#'||substr
(tabspace,5,length(tabspace)-4), indspace='<SAPSID_TARGET>#'||substr(indspace,
5,length(indspace)-4)
■ For table IADB6, enter the following SQL command:
update <connect_user_name>.iadb6 set tabspace = '<SAPSID_TARGET>#'||substr
(tabspace,5,length(tabspace)-4)
■ For table TADB6, enter the following SQL command:
update <connect_user_name>.tadb6 set tabspace = '<SAPSID_TARGET>#'||substr
(tabspace,5,length(tabspace)-4)
Follow-up Activities
After the installation on the target system, you perform the following steps:
■ The tablespaces SYSTOOLSPACE and SYSTOOLSTMPSPACE are used by certain DB2 tools and SQL
administrative routines to store historical and configuration information. We recommend that
you drop and re-create these tablespaces in the target system as follows:
1. Log on to the database server of the target system as user db2<dbsid>.
2. Generate the DDL statements for the tablespaces of the system by entering the following
command on the DB2 command line:
db2look -d <DBSID> -l -o <filename>.sql
3. Drop both tablespaces by entering the following command:
db2 drop tablespace SYSTOOLSPACE, SYSTOOLTMPSPACE
4. Look up the CREATE TABLESPACE statements for SYSTOOLSPACE and SYSTOOLSTMPSPACE in
<filename>.sql.
5. Execute both statements on the DB2 command line.
For more information, see SYSTOOLSPACE and SYSTOOLSTMPSPACE tablespaces in the IBM DB2
V9.1 Information Center at http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/ v9/topic/
com.ibm.db2.udb.admin.doc/doc/c0023713.htm.
■ If you performed a redirected restore, check all settings of the database manager and database
configuration parameters. Specifically, make sure that the following configuration parameters
point to the correct path:
● DIAGPATH (DBM)
● JDK_PATH (DBM)
● DFTDBPATH (DBM)
● Path to log files (DB)
● If set, NEWLOGPATH (DB), OVERFLOWLOGPATH (DB), FAILARCHPATH (DB) and MIRRORLOGPATH (DB)

26. Check self-defined external commands (transaction SM69).
27. Check entries of the following tables in all relevant systems:
■ TXCOM (transaction SM54)
■ THOST (transaction SM55)
28. Check the logical system names. For more information, see Preparations [page 15]. If you need to
change logical system names in the system that results from the copy, change the logical system
names at this time, as described in SAP Notes 103228 and 544509. Follow your corporate naming
strategy for logical systems when making this change.
BI customers: If you have copied a BI (formerly BW) system, read SAP Note 325525.
29. For every client in your SAP system check the detail settings (client role, changes and transports
for client-dependent objects, changes for client-independent objects, protection level, restrictions)
(transaction SCC4).
30. Check if you can delete clients that will no longer be used in the target system (transaction
SCC5).
31. Check the contexts and segments of remote application servers for the SAP Monitoring
Infrastructure if required (transaction RZ21).
32. Configure the domain controller in the Transport Management System (TMS) by using
transaction STMS.
33. Post-processing for customer objects:
If customer objects are not original in the new system, modify the corresponding entries in table
TADIR.
If you encounter problems modifying a customer development class using transaction SMTS or
SM31, try using the option Validate (ENTER) instead of the option Save to save your changes.
34. ABAP Program Loads
The ABAP loads are platform-dependent programs that are generated during runtime and stored
in database tables. They are not exported when you use the R3load procedure to copy your SAP
system. The ABAP loads are generated in the target system when they are first used. This might,
however, reduce production system performance. To avoid this, you can use transaction SGEN to
generate the missing loads.
Load generation requires a large amount of system resources. Therefore, it makes sense to schedule
the generation job to run overnight.
For a detailed description of the features, see the online documentation in transaction SGEN by
choosing Information on the SAP Load Generator, or in the Job Monitor by choosing Job Monitor.
35. If you changed the database management system (for example, IBM i to MaxDB) when copying
the system, you have to start program RS_BW_POST_MIGRATION in the background with variant
SAP&POSTMGRDB. If you did not change the database management system when copying the system,
you have to start program RS_BW_POST_MIGRATION in the background by using variant

specific objects (mainly BI objects).
NOTE
You are required to perform the step independent of whether your target system is a BI or
not.
Checking the Target System
The following actions are suitable for checking the consistency of the target system:
1. Perform initial consistency check (transaction SM28).
2. Check the system log on all application servers (transaction SM21).
3. Check the consistency of the database (transaction DB02).
4. Perform server check (transaction SM51).
5. Test transactions frequently used by the customer.
6. FI customers: Run the job SAPF190 (accounting reconciliation) and compare the results to those
gained on the source system before the system copy ( Accounting Financial Accounting General ledger
Periodic Processing Closing Check/count Comparison ).
7. FI customers: Run the jobs RFUMSV00 (tax on sales/purchases), RAGITT01 (asset history sheet),
RAZUGA01 (asset acquisitions), andRAABGA01 (fixed asset retirements) and compare the results to
those gained on the source system before the system copy.
8. CO customers: Run the report group 1SIP and compare the results to those gained on the source
system before the system copy.
Replacing the PSEs in the Target System
Replace all existing PSEs in the target systems with new ones, which contain the new system's
information. Proceed as follows:
1. In your ABAP system, call transaction STRUST.
2. Proceed as described in the documentation Creating or Replacing a PSE in the SAP Library at:

NOTE
■ Since replacing a PSE will remove all of the previously used certificates, also import all
necessary trusted certificates into the new PSE's certificate list. (Check the old PSE's
certificate list.) Also distribute the new PSE's public-key certificate to the systems where
it will be used.
■ Make sure the new PSE contains the new system ID.
■ Note the naming conventions to use for each PSE. The naming conventions are usually
specified by the Certification Authority (CA) where you obtain the certificate, however,
the type of PSE also has some restrictions, for example, for the SSL server PSE, the CN

7.1 R3load Procedures Using the Migration Monitor
Purpose
The Migration Monitor is a tool that helps you to perform and control the unload and load process
during the system copy procedure. As of SAP NetWeaver 04 SR1, the Migration Monitor is integrated
into the SAPinst system copy tool, but you can also use the Migration Monitor to copy previous releases
by starting it manually.
The Migration Monitor
■ creates R3load command files.
■ creates R3load task files if required.
■ starts R3load processes to unload the data.
■ transfers packages from the source to the target host if required.
■ starts R3load processes to load the data as soon as a package is available.
■ informs the person performing the system copy in the case of errors.
The Migration Monitor has to be started on the source database host (export monitor) and on the
target database host (import monitor).
CAUTION
If you want to convert a non-Unicode system to a Unicode using the socket option, you need an
R3load version with a specific patch level. For more information, see SAP Note
1238351.
Prerequisites
■ JRE version 1.4.1 or higher
■ The JAVA_HOME environment variable must point to the JRE directory.
■ The correct directory structure for R3load dump files must exist on both the source and target
hosts.

using the ddlMap option within the migration monitor's properties file. Packages not listed in the DDL
mapping file use the default DDL control file.
Procedure
Example of a DDL mapping file:
# DDL mapping file ddl_mapping.txt
# !!! line with [GROUP_NAME] can be skipped
# used for documentation purposes only

7.1.3 Defining Groups of Packages
The “package group” feature is an enhancement to defining a package order. By defining groups, you
can prevent certain packages being executed in parallel and you can define how many large tables are
exported or imported at the same time. In addition, you can specify different values for the parameters
jobNum and taskArgs or loadArgs for each package. Package groups can be defined in the same text
file in which the package order can be defined (see parameter orderBy). The previous package order
format is also fully supported.
A group starts with any arbitrary name in brackets and ends when the next group starts.
If package groups are defined, the maximum number of parallel R3load jobs is the sum of jobNum of
all packages. All packages without a package group will be assigned to a “default group” with the number
of jobs that was defined in the Migration Monitor's properties file.
Procedure

7.1.4 Processing Split Tables
If tables have been split during the export, ensure before the import starts that the table exists and that
the primary key and the indexes are created before or after (as defined in the DDL template) the table
data has been imported. These tasks will automatically be synchronized by the Migration Monitor.
WHR files are part of the package and have to be copied to the DATA export subdirectory to make sure
that the same WHR file is used for the export and import of the corresponding package.
The following database platforms do not support parallel data import:
■ IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows
■ MS SQL
You can ensure this by using the Defining Groups of Packages [page 89] feature.
Procedure
Example: Target Database Does Not Support Parallel Data Import
During the export you have split the table MY_FIRST_TABLE into 3 packages and MY_SECOND_TABLE into
5 packages. You now want to run a maximum of 10 R3load processes for parallel data import.
Create the file inputFile.txt with the following content:
[ MY_FIRST_TABLE ]
jobNum = 1
MY_FIRST_TABLE-1
MY_FIRST_TABLE-2
MY_FIRST_TABLE-3
[ MY_SECOND_TABLE ]
jobNum = 1
MY_SECOND_TABLE-1
MY_SECOND_TABLE-2

In this file, you can also define the processing order of packages or you can assign DDL files to packages.
The inputFile.txt file has to be specified as a value for the Migration Monitor parameter orderBy.
An R3load job is started for every group (MY_FIRST_TABLE and MY_SECOND_TABLE). The number of
parallel R3load jobs will be the total of the number of R3load jobs of each group plus the number of
R3load jobs defined for the default group (which is made up of all packages without an explicit group
name) defined by the parameter jobNum.
In this example, the parameter jobNum in the import_monitor_cmd.properties file has to be set to 8
to ensure that no more than 10 R3load processes run in parallel.
Re-Starting the Import of a Split Table Package
If the import of a package fails, the rows that belong to this package have to be deleted using the
WHERE condition assigned to this package before the data import is started again. The deletion with a
WHERE clause can be very time consuming, therefore it is faster to delete all rows of the corresponding
table manually and reimport all packages instead.
Restart for all other database platforms:
1. Eliminate the reason for the failure of the import of the packages.
2. Manually delete all rows of the table for which the import of one or more packages failed.
3. Remove the TSK files of all packages that import data into this table (<table name>-
<counter>__TPI.TSK). Do not remove the TSK files that create either the table or the indexes for
this table.
4. Adapt the file import_state.properties in the installation directory. Replace the status “+” of
all packages for the corresponding table that had been imported successfully and has to be
reimported by “0” (see Restarting R3load Processes [page 47]).
5. Restart the import.

What happens during export / import with the above listed property files during a system copy with Oracle as source and target database:
■ The following directories must exist on the export host (parameter: exportDirs):
● c:\temp\export_dump\DATA
● c:\temp\export_dump\DB
● c:\temp\export_dump\DB\ORA
The c:\temp\export_dump\DATA directory must contain the STR files generated by R3ldctl, the c:
\temp\export_dump\DB directory the DDL<DBTYPE>.TPL files generated by R3ldctl, and the c:\temp
\export_dump\DB\ORA directory the EXT files generated by R3szchk.
■ The export monitor writes the R3load dump files and the TOC files to the directory c:\temp
\export_dump\DATA.
■ The R3load log files, cmd files, and TSK files (if required) are located in the directory c:\install
\start (parameter: installDir). The export itself is not done by the export monitor, as the
monitor is started in client mode (parameter server is not set).
■ As soon as a package has been exported successfully, the export monitor will transfer all files
belonging to that package (TOC, STR, EXT, 001, and so on) to the target host (parameter:
ftpHost) into the corresponding subdirectories of the directory /install_dir/export_dump
(parameter: ftpExportDirs) as user <sapsid>adm (parameter: ftpUser), identified by password
(parameter: ftpPassword) to log on.
■ If the package files have been completely transferred to the server, the export monitor will write
a <package>.SGN signal file to the /install_dir/exchange (parameter: ftpExchangeDir) directory
to notify the import monitor that it can start importing this package.

7.1.7 Installing the Target System Using the Migration Monitor
Prerequisites
Make sure that there is enough free space on the target system for the database load. To find out the
size of the export and the sizes of the tablespaces or dbspaces that are created, look at the file
DBSIZE.XML located in the directory <DRIVE>:\<EXPDIR>\DB\<DATABASE> (Windows) or <EXPDIR>/DB/
<DATABASE> (UNIX).
Procedure
1. If you want to start the installation of the target host using the Migration Monitor, make sure that
at least the dump directory with the following files is accessible on the target host and that it
contains the correct data before you start SAPinst:
■ <dump dir>/LABEL.ASC
■ <dump dir>/DB/<DBTYPE>/DBSIZE.XML
■ <dump dir>/DB/DDLORA.TPL
If the dump directory is not shared on the target host, copy the files from the source system to the
target system as soon as they have been created on the source host using the (export) migration
monitor's FTP copy options.
2. Start SAPinst as described in the installation documentation for your SAP component.
3. To install the target system, follow the instructions in the SAPinst input dialogs and enter the
required parameters as far as the ABAP System > Database screen. On this screen, choose Standard
System Copy/Migration (R3load-Based).
4. Select the Use Migration Monitor option.
NOTE
If you need more information about input parameters, position the cursor on the field of the
respective parameter and press F1.
5. When SAPinst displays the CD browser window and asks for the Export Migration CD, enter the path
to the export directory <EXPDIR>.
6. Continue as described in the installation documentation for your SAP component until a dialog
box appears that states:
If the export has been started on the source system and the export monitor is
running, you can now start the data load by starting the import monitor.
7 Additional Information
7.1 R3load Procedures Using the Migration Monitor
2011-03-07 PUBLIC 97/116
7. Check that the prerequisites in the dialog box are fulfilled by your system. If so, start the Migration
Monitor.
8. Complete the installation as described in the installation documentation for your SAP solution.
CAUTION
If you have to restart the import after an error, just restart SAPinst. The import is continued
with the table that was not imported successfully.

7.3 Interrupted Installation with SAPinst
The SAP system installation might be interrupted for one of the following reasons:
■ An error occurred during the Define Parameters or Execute phase:
SAPinst does not abort the installation in error situations. If an error occurs, the installation pauses
and a dialog box appears. The dialog box contains a short description of the choices listed in the
table below as well as a path to a log file that contains detailed information about the error.
■ You interrupted the installation by choosing Cancel in the SAPinst menu.
The following table describes the options in the dialog box:
Option Definition
Retry SAPinst retries the installation from the point of failure without repeating any of the previous steps.This is possible because SAPinst records the installation progress in the keydb.xml file.We recommend that you view the entries in the log files, try to solve the problem, and then choose Retry.If the same or a different error occurs, SAPinst displays the same dialog box again.
Stop SAPinst stops the installation, closing the dialog box, the SAPinst GUI, and the GUI server.SAPinst records the installation progress in the keydb.xml file. Therefore, you can continue the installation from the point of failure without repeating any of the previous steps (see the procedure below).
Continue SAPinst continues the installation from the current point.

7.4 Performing a Remote Export Using SAPinst
Purpose
You can run the SAPinst GUI in standalone mode to perform a remote export.
This enables you to perform the export on another host (the remote host) while monitoring the export
with the SAPinst GUI on your local Windows or UNIX computer (the local host).
Prerequisites
■ You have performed the preparation activities for your local host (SAPinst GUI host) and your
remote host as described in Prerequisites in Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst [page 31].
■ Both computers are in the same network and can ping each other.
To test this:
● Log on to your remote host and enter the command ping <local host>.
● Log on to the local host and enter the command ping <remote host>.
Process Flow
1. Start the SAPinst server on your remote host.
2. Start the SAPinst GUI on your local host.
3. Perform the installation using the SAPinst GUI.
For more information, see:
■ Starting SAPinst on the Remote Host [page 102]
■ Starting SAPinst GUI Separately [page 105]
7.4.1 Performing a Remote Installation with SAPinst
You use this procedure to install your SAP system on a remote host. In this case, SAPinst and the
SAPinst GUI server run on the remote host, and SAPinst GUI client runs on the local host. The local
host is the host from which you control the installation with the SAPinst GUI client. The GUI client
connects using a secure SSL connection to the GUI server and the GUI server connects to SAPinst.
Only valid for: IBM i5/OS |
NOTE
For IBM i only in rare cases a remote installation is done. A local installation on IBM i means that
the entire SAPinst (the SAPinst, the SAPinst GUI server and SAPinst GUI client) is running on the
same Windows PC to install an SAP system on IBM i using the TMKSVR. A remote installation
7 Additional Information
7.4 Performing a Remote Export Using SAPinst
