1 Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver

Purpose

This document explains how to copy SAP systems in one run using either database-independent

methods or database-specific methods.

CAUTION

Only perform a system copy if you have experience in copying systems and thorough knowledge

of the operating system, the database, and the Java Dictionary. Only perform a heterogeneous

system copy if you are a certified system support consultant or a certified SAP Technical

Consultant.

1.1 Terminology

■ 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.

■ 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. The terms source database and target

database are also used in this description.

■ 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.

■ Database Copy

Database-dependent part of the system copy.

■ Placeholders

1 Homogeneous and Heterogeneous System Copy for SAP Systems Based on SAP NetWeaver

1.1 Terminology

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 7/122

Page 8: System Copy 73 Java

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.

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

1.2 Online Information from SAP

Before you start the system copy, you must read the documentation that is referenced in the following:

■ Read the following SAP Note for up-to-date information on system copy and corrections to the

system copy documentation:

SAP Note 1490839 (System Copy for SAP NetWeaver Based on Kernel 7.3)

Make sure that you have the most recent version of the SAP Note, which you can find at

http://service.sap.com/notes.

■ This documentation describes only 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.

NOTE

If you have problems during the system copy, create a customer message using the application

area BC-INS-MIG.

Page 9: System Copy 73 Java

1.3 Accessing the SAP Library

The references to SAP NetWeaver Library documentation in this guide always refer to the following

on SAP Help Portal:

http://help.sap.com/nw73 Application Help SAP Library: English SAP NetWeaver

1.4 Constraints

■ As of SAP NetWeaver 7.0, when your system is a dual-stack system and you perform a system copy,

your source system is copied to the target system as a whole. This means that it is neither possible

to exclude a single stack from the system copy nor to copy a separate stack only.

■ 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 will be able to 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 system, you might not always have access from the target

system to the archive files that were created. For more information, see SAP Note 153433 and System

Landscape Optimization at http://service.sap.com/slo.

Access from the target system to archived files in the source system without a dedicated archive

migration project is only supported as follows:

● You have copied a source system that uses external data archiving. The target system has read-

only access to this archive.

● You have copied a source system that uses data archiving locally. You can either arrange

network access for appropriate archive file sharing or copy all archive files to the file system

of the target system.

In all other cases, contact SAP SLO at http://service.sap.com/slo or

[email protected].

■ When you perform a system copy, all software units in the source system are copied to the target

system. This means that none of the software units in the target system can be excluded from the

system copy, nor can you select software units.

■ Dos and Don'ts for system copy:

● Do:

◆ Save configuration data and runtime data in the Java database only.

◆ 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.

◆ Try to copy the Java part of an ABAP+Java system to a Java standalone system or the other

way around.

■ If you have implemented a federated portal network (FPN) across multiple SAP NetWeaver systems,

see SAP Note 1080080 before commencing with the system copy.

2 Planning

This section describes how to plan your system copy.

You can apply the system copy for the following:

■ Setting up system landscapes (where the SAP systems have different SAPSIDs).

■ Providing systems for testing, demonstration, training, and standby.

NOTE

● Oracle only: You cannot create standby systems with a system copy.

● You should perform upgrades in a test system first. This way you can identify customer-

specific problems that might result from modifications.

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.

■ Changing the operating system, the database, or both.

You can use different operating system releases or database releases for the source and target

systems, but the SAP system release of the source and target systems must be the same.

■ Changing the hardware.

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. Consider a test run

Perform a test run of the system copy. You can use the time taken by the test run to calculate the

system downtime:

■ If you want your target system to 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.

2 Planning

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 11/122

Page 12: System Copy 73 Java

Choose the best data transfer method (for example, FTP or tape). We recommend that you

perform read/write actions only on local file systems.

3. Define a schedule for the test run and the final system copy.

When copying a system that contains production data, choose the moment for the copy carefully.

This could be a month-end or year-end closing.

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 [page 17] using SAP tools

Use this method if database-specific methods are either not available or not suitable.

NOTE

For a database-heterogeneous system copy and for unicode conversion, only the

database-independent method is available.

● The database-specific procedure [page 33] using tools provided by the database vendor

Some database vendors offer specific tools for copying a database. These tools let you:

◆ 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

● Copy single instances only

◆ Copy the database only (using SAPinst) [page 71]

◆ Copy the database only (using database refresh) [page 73]

CAUTION

You cannot copy single usage types or components!

■ Changing the system variant

If you want to change your system variant (for example, if you want to make your standard system

a distributed or high-availability system), proceed as follows:

1. Perform the export [page 20].

2. For the import, choose the relevant system copy options as described in the process flows of

the system copy procedure [page 18].

■ Choosing an SAP system ID

You can choose the new SAP system ID <TARGET_SAPSID> freely during a new installation.

CAUTION

To meet the requirements of the Workbench Organizer, you must choose different SAP

system IDs for different SAP systems.

■ SAP license

2 Planning

12/122 PUBLIC 2011-11-07

Page 13: System Copy 73 Java

Once the installation is completed and the SAP system copy has been imported, you require a new

license key for the target system. The license key of the source system is not valid for this system.

For information about ordering and installing the SAP license, see the SAP Library [page 9] at:

SAP NetWeaver Library: Function-Oriented View Solution Life Cycle Management SAP Licenses .

For more information about SAP license keys, see http://service.sap.com/licensekey or SAP

Note 94998.

■ Archiving files

Data that has been archived in the source system (data that does not reside in the database but was

moved to a different storage location using SAP Archive Management) must be made accessible

in the target system. Adapt the file residence information in the target system. For more

information, see the SAP Library [page 9] at:

SAP NetWeaver Library: Function-Oriented View Solution Life Cycle Management Data Archiving (CA-

ARC) .

Access to archive files is platform-independent.

■ Configuration analysis and hardware analysis

You need to determine the:

● Number of application servers

● Expected size of the database

● Additional disks or other hardware required

● Required memory

NOTE

See the section on hardware and software requirements in the SAP system installation

documentation to determine the system requirements.

Usage-Type-Specific Planning Steps

Development Infrastructure (DI) only

For the migration of Java Development Infrastructure (JDI) components you can apply either “Copy”

or “Move”.

■ Copy

“Copy” is supported only by Design Time Repository (DTR). After a copy, both the source DTR

and target DTR can be used productively in parallel. However, Component Build Service (CBS),

Change Management Service (CMS), and CM Services do not support such a copy.

■ Move

“Move” is supported by all JDI components (DTR, CBS, CMS, and CM Services). After a move, the

source system can no longer be used, that is, only the target is active after the move has been

performed.

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 on the source system. For more information about

SAP system administration, see 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 installation kit and installed during the installation of the target system by 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 primary application server instance.

■ Before you start the export on your source system, check that your JAVA_HOME environment points

to a valid JDK version.

NOTE

In i5/OS, the installed JVMs available in QIBM/ProdData are queried and the best suited one is

chosen. If you want to use another JVM, you must set JAVA_HOME.

3.2 Usage-Type-Specific Preparations

This section includes the preparation steps that you have to perform for specific usage types.

Procedure

Development Infrastructure (DI)

If your SAP system is of software unit Development Infrastructure (DI) then this system can only be

moved, but not be copied. This means that it is possible to migrate such a system from one host to

another but it is not possible to keep both systems active after the migration. The target system will be

inactive after the copy. If you want to move an SAP system with software unit Development

Infrastructure (DI), perform the following preparatory steps:

3 Preparations

3.1 General Technical Preparations

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 15/122

Page 16: System Copy 73 Java

1. Make sure that the users and passwords created in the source system are valid in the target system

(for example, they use the same UME).

2. Check in (or revert) all open activities (of all users) in the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio by

using the Design Time Repository perspective (DTR perspective).

3. Remove all existing development configurations from the SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio.

4. Stop all applications of the Development Infrastructure (DI) on the source system.

3.3 Preparing the Installation Media

Procedure

1. Identify the required media as listed below.

NOTE

The media names listed in the following table are abbreviations.

You can find the full names of all media shipped with SAP NetWeaver 7.3 in the document

Media List – SAP NetWeaver 7.3 on SAP Service Marketplace at: http://service.sap.com/

installnw73 .

SAP Instance Required Folder of Software Packages from Media

Central services instance for Java (SCS) ■ Installation master (folder <Product>_IM_<OS>_<DB>) ■ UC or NUC kernel (folder K_<N or U>_<Version>_<OS>)

where U means Unicode and N means non-Unicode. ■ Database client software

NOTE

You can find the Software Component Archives (SCAs) for the installation of SAP NetWeaver usage types in the software packages for Java (folders JAVA_*).

Make sure that you have the appropriate installation kit version for your SAP kernel and that the

versions of the SAP systems and the installation media are the same on the target and source

systems. Exceptions are only allowed if they are described in an SAP Note.

CAUTION

The source system must be in a consistent state before you can copy it.

2. Make the required media available.

RECOMMENDATION

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.

3.

3 Preparations

3.3 Preparing the Installation Media

16/122 PUBLIC 2011-11-07

Page 17: System Copy 73 Java

4 Database Independent System Copy

You can use the SAP installation tool SAPinst to export and import your Java database content, file

system, and all configuration in a database-independent format. SAPinst uses the Jload tool.

Jload generates a database export of all SAP objects that are defined in the Java Dictionary and archives

the configuration and components in the file system.

Constraints

Jload Restrictions

■ SAPinst generates a database dump of all SAP objects that are defined in the Java Dictionary (Jload).

Other objects are not exported by SAPinst.

■ For a consistent database export, no transactions on export-relevant database objects are allowed

during the export. Otherwise, the export has to be restarted. Therefore, we recommend that you

shut down the SAP system (excluding the database!) for the export. The database must still be

running.

Existing Target System

If the target system already exists and if you do not plan to perform an MCOD installation, delete

the database on the target system before the import. For more information, see Additional Information in

the installation documentation for your SAP component.

If the database configuration of your database is stored in the file system, we recommend you to back

up these configuration files 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

one unload/load process is a package. The packages differ in 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 and smaller pieces.

■ There are several options of how to split packages. For a detailed description of the options, see the

F1 help about the parameters prompted on theSplit 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 – combined.

4 Database Independent System Copy

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 17/122

Page 18: System Copy 73 Java

■ “Splitting of STR Files” is part of the “Advanced Export Parameters” and is enabled by default. If

you select the splitting option (if you did not already perform some tests before), using the splitting

tool parameters selected by SAPinst is a good starting point.

CAUTION

If you want to split STR files, 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.

4.1 System Copy Procedure

This section describes the system copy procedure using Jload.

Procedure

Process Flow on the Source System (Export)

When performing the export you create a MIGRATION EXPORT CD image, which contains the data

of the exported system, and which you use to install the target system.

Follow the sequence of steps described in the process flows below for a:

■ Standard system

■ Distributed system or high-availability system

Standard System

To perform the export for a standard system, proceed as follows on the standard system host:

1. Perform the export on the standard system host:

1. If you want to run export processes in parallel to import processes,

run SAPinst on UNIX or Windows [page 20] or on IBM i [page 23] to prepare the source system

for the export.

In SAPinst, choose the system copy option Export Preparation.

2. Run SAPinst on UNIX or Windows [page 20] or on IBM i [page 23] to export the database instance.

In SAPinst, choose the system copy option Database Instance Export.

Only valid for: UNIX |

CAUTION

If your database instance is running on HP PA-Risc, you must proceed as described in

SAP Note 884452.

End of: UNIX |

Result

You have finished this part of the system copy. To complete the system copy, perform the steps in

Setting Up the Target System Using SAPinst [page 29].

1. Perform the export on the database instance host:

1. If you want to run export processes in parallel to import processes,

run SAPinst on UNIX or Windows [page 20] or on IBM i [page 23] to prepare the source system

for the export.

In SAPinst, choose the system copy option Export Preparation.

2. Run SAPinst on UNIX or Windows [page 20] or on IBM i [page 23] to export the database instance.

In SAPinst, choose the system copy option Database Instance Export.

Only valid for: UNIX |

CAUTION

If your database instance is running on HP PA-Risc, you need to proceed as described in

SAP Note 884452.

End of: UNIX |

Result

You finished this part of the system copy. To complete the system copy, perform the steps as described

in Setting Up the Target System Using SAPinst [page 29].

4.2 Preparing Parallel Export and Import

If you want to perform export processes in parallel to import processes, you have to prepare the source

system for the export. The preparation includes the following steps, that are required to set up the

target database:

■ Creating the export directory structure

■ Calculating the size of the target database

■ Creating database size file DBSIZE.XML

If you do not prepare the export, you have to wait for the export results before you can start with the

target system setup.

Procedure

1. Run SAPinst to perform the Export Preparation.

For more information, see Exporting the Source System Using SAPinst [page 20].

2. As soon as the export preparation has finished successfully, the complete export directory with its

structure and the generated DBSIZE.XML file have to be transferred to the target host.

For more information, see Transferring the Export Files to the Target Host [page 30].

4.3.1 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

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 instead perform a remote system copy with SAPinst, 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 105].

For more information about SAPinst, see Useful Information About SAPinst [page 98].

Prerequisites

CAUTION

Make sure that you shut down all SAP application servers before the export. The database must

still be running. Otherwise, the target system might be inconsistent.

You need at least 130 MB of free space in the installation directory for each Java installation option. In

addition, you need 60-200 MB free space for the SAPinst executables.

Only valid for: UNIX |

If you cannot provide 200 MB free space in the temporary directory, you can set one of the environment

variables TEMP,TMP, or TMPDIR to another directory with 200 MB free space for the SAPinst executables.End of: UNIX |

for your installation, below the temporary directory of your operating system.

■ Using an alternative installation directory

If you want to use an alternative installation directory, set the environment variable TEMP,

TMP, or TMPDIR.

■ 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 SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<virtual host>.

CAUTION

Make sure that the installation directory is not mounted with NFS, or there might be problems

when the Java Virtual Machine is started.

NOTE

Be aware of the following:

■ 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.

■ Make sure that your current working directory is not an IM_<OS> directory belonging

to another operating system.

your IBM i. To copy the media, you have to use a binary share ROOTBIN. This guarantees that the content

of the media is copied correctly from the Windows PC to your IBM i. No copied content is corrupted,

and no copied files with longer file names are shortened by a converting share.

Procedure

Creating a Binary Share ROOTBIN on IBM i

If you do not already have a binary share ROOTBIN on your IBM i, and you want to copy manually media

from your Windows PC into the IFS of your IBM i, you have to create this share manually using the

System i Navigator (OpsNav). To do so, proceed as follows:

1. Start the System i Navigator on your Windows PC.

2. Connect to your IBM i using My Connections.

3. To create or change the share ROOTBIN, choose File Systems File Shares .

4. Right-click File Shares Open i5/OS Netserver .

A new screen i5/OS Netserver appears.

5. Click the folder Shared Objects to see the shares.

6. To check the already existing share ROOTBIN or create a new share ROOTBIN, right-click New

File .

Page 28: System Copy 73 Java

NOTE

The share ROOTBIN must have the access permission Read/Write and the path name should

be /.

7. On the Text Conversion tab, do not select Allow file text conversion.

8. To save the share ROOTBIN, press OK.

Now you have created the share ROOTBIN on your IBM i.

Copying the Installation Media Manually Using the Binary Share ROOTBIN

1. To open the MS DOS screen on Windows, choose Start Run .

2. Enter cmd.exe.

3. Press OK.

The MS DOS screen appears.

4. In the command line of the MS DOS screen, enter net use.

All network connections to shared resources are displayed.

5. Check if you have a connection to your IBM i.

If you find \\<IBM_i_Hostname>\ROOTBIN in the Remote column and a drive directory letter in the

Local column, you have already established the required connection to your IBM i.

Otherwise, you have to establish this connection. To do this, enter:

net use X: \\<IBM_i_Hostname>\ROOTBIN SAP /USER:SAPIUSR

X: is now your new network drive to share \\<IBM_i_Hostname>\ROOTBIN to your IFS on the

IBM i. If X: is already in use, choose another drive letter that is free.

NOTE

We use the user name SAPIUSR and the password SAP as examples. For more information

about how to create the installation user SAPIUSER, see Preparing an IBM i User Profile [page 26].

6. To change to the new network drive, enter X: in the command line of your MS DOS screen.

7. Create the subdirectories in your IFS where you want to copy the required media.

For each media, enter:

mkdir \tmp\<sid>\<media_name>

NOTE

You must avoid spaces in the media path name.

8. Copy the installation media from your Windows drive (for example D:\) to the IFS of your IBM i

host by inserting the required installation media and entering the following command:

xcopy D:\<media> X:\tmp\<sid>\<media_name> /E or

xcopy C:\tmp\download\<media_name> X:\tmp\<sid>\<media_name> /E

NOTE

You must copy the root directory of the media and all required media subdirectories to the

IFS of your IBM i.

9. For each required media, create a subdirectory and copy the required media.

4.4 Setting Up the Target System

Purpose

You use SAPinst to install the target system and import the database files that you have exported from

the source system.

Process Flow

Standard System

You perform the following steps on the standard system host:

1. You prepare the standard system host for the installation of your target system as described in the

installation guide for your SAP application.

2. You transfer the Java export files to the central system target host [page 30].

3. You install the target system [page 30].

4. If required, on the host or hosts of the application server instance, you install further

additional application server instances as described in the installation guide for your SAP

application.

Distributed System or High-Availability System

Perform the following steps on the relevant installation hosts of your target system:

1. You prepare the central services instance host, the database instance host and the host of

the primary application server instance for the installation of the corresponding instances of

your target system as described in the installation guide for your SAP application.

2. You install the central services instance for the target system as described in the installation

guide for your SAP application.

3. You perform the following steps on the database instance host:

1. You transfer the Java export files to the database instance target host [page 30].

4 Database Independent System Copy

4.4 Setting Up the Target System

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 29/122

Page 30: System Copy 73 Java

2. You install the database instance of the target system [page 30].

4. On the host of the primary application server instance, you install the primary application

server instance of the target system.

5. If required, on the host or hosts of the additional application server instance, you install

further additional application server instances as described in the installation guide for your SAP

application.

4.4.1 Transferring the Export Files to the Target Host

This section describes how to transfer the complete export directory with its structure and the generated

DBSIZE.XML file to the target host.

Procedure1. On the target host, create a directory <EXPDIR> with sufficient space for the database export files

available.

CAUTION

Do not create this directory under the installation directory or another directory that

contains installation information (such as the installation master or 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.

2. Transfer all files and directories (recursively) that are located on the source host in the migration

export directory <EXPDIR> from the source host to the target host.

You can choose one of the following methods:

■ Use the migration monitor with the file transfer protocol (FTP) copy option.

NOTE

Make sure that you use binary mode for transferring the files.

■ 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 (network

share).

3. Check the permissions of the transferred files on the target host. All files have to be accessible for

user <sapsid>adm of the target system.

4.4.2 Installing the Target System

PrerequisitesThere 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 will be created, look at the file DBSIZE.XML, which is

located in the following directory:

4 Database Independent System Copy

30/122 PUBLIC 2011-11-07

Page 31: System Copy 73 Java

Windows: <DRIVE>:\<EXPDIR>\DB\<DATABASE>

UNIX: <EXPDIR>/DB/<DATABASE>

Only valid for: MaxDB |

If the database platform of your target system is MaxDB, you must reserve at least twice as much space

as specified in the DBSIZE.XML file. During the import, monitor the remaining free space in the database

using the MaxDB administration tools Database Manager or Database Studio, and increase it if required.End of: MaxDB |

Procedure

1. Prepare the target system host as described in the installation guide for your SAP system.

2. Start SAPinst as described in the installation guide for your SAP system.

CAUTION

If you plan to use Advanced Configuration options during the SAP System Database Import,

make sure you have installed the most current version of SAPinst to avoid performance

problems during the dialog phase. You can find the latest version of SAPinst at http://

service.sap.com.

3. On the Welcome screen, navigate to the following folder according to the requirements of your

target system: <Your Product> System Copy Target System <System Variant> Based on <Technical

Stack> .

4. Run the options required for your system copy in the sequence they are listed in the specific folder

and according to the process flow in Setting Up the Target System Using SAPinst [page 29].

5. To install the target system, follow the instructions in the SAPinst input dialogs and enter the

required parameters.

CAUTION

■ If you perform a Unicode conversion, the data import into the target system might abort

because of missing space in the database tablespace or dbspace. Enlarge the database or

database container, in which the table DYNPSOURCE will be created in the target database.

The required size for the table will be 15 times larger than in the non-Unicode source

system.

■ Do not create the installation directory (for example: sapinst_instdir) in the following

directories:

● UNIX: /usr/sap/<SAPSID>

● UNIX: /sapmnt/<SAPSID>

● Windows: \usr\sap\<SAPSID>

● Windows: \sapmnt\<SAPSID>

■ If you want to perform export processes in parallel to import processes and you have prepared

the export, you must choose Custom on the Parameter Mode screen.

■ On the SAP System > Database screen, choose Standard System Copy/Migration (Load-Based).

The SAP data dump from the MIGRATION EXPORT CD image that you created during the export

is loaded in the newly installed SAP system database.

■ When SAPinst displays the Media Browser window and asks for the Export Migration CD, enter

the path to the export directory <EXPDIR>.

■ If you want to perform export processes in parallel to import processes and you have prepared

the export, you must select Parallel Export and Import on the SAP System Database Import screen.

6. Complete the installation as described in the installation documentation for your SAP component.

NOTE

If you have to restart the import after an error, just restart SAPinst. The import continues

with the table that has not yet been successfully imported.

NOTE

The Java EE engine is not started automatically. After the target system has been installed and the

follow-up activities [page 75] have been performed, you have to start the Java EE engine manually.

5 Database-Specific System Copy

The following sections describe the database-specific methods for the system copy. For more

information about SAP Notes describing the homogeneous system copy for your database system, see

http://service.sap.com/notes.

CAUTION

■ You must not uninstall all application server instances of an SAP system if you want to

continue using the database instance of this SAP system. Otherwise, you delete configuration-

specific data in the database instance that is required for performing the homogeneous system

copy.

■ During the installation of the target system, the secure store must be created using the same

key phrase as the source system. Make sure that the key phrase is correct otherwise encrypted

content cannot be decrypted and that prevents the server from starting.

Process

Follow the sequence of steps described in the process flows below for a:

■ Standard system

■ Distributed system

■ High-availability system

Standard System

For performing the export for a standard system, you need to proceed as follows on the central system

host:

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

the copy can be an offline 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

steps are different.

Advantages

■ You can use existing offline backups (provided that redo logs were cleaned up with forced log

switches).

■ This method is faster than the Jload method.

Disadvantages

■ Offline 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 during offline backup/copy of database files.

■ You cannot change the database schema and the tablespace names.

Prerequisites

■ You must use the same Oracle release and patch level for your database in the source and target

system.

■ 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 a JRE version 1.5 or higher is installed

on the database instance.

■ The JAVA_HOME environment variable must point the JRE directory.

■ The backup must be done offline.

5 Database-Specific System Copy

5.1 Oracle-Specific Procedure

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 35/122

Page 36: System Copy 73 Java

NOTE

The system copy procedure does not support the usage of an online backup to copy your

Java engine.

■ The source and target systems must run on different hosts for security reasons.

■ The source and target systems must be binary compatible.

NOTE

You can also perform a system copy from 32-bit systems to 64-bit systems and the other way

around (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;

5.1.1 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 medium for the installation master to the installation

directory and extract it using SAPCAR.

You can find the archive in the following directory:

UNIX: /DATA_UNITS/<Product>_IM_<your OS>_ORA/COMMON/INSTALL/ORA/ORABRCOPY.SAR

Windows: \DATA_UNITS\<Product>_IM_WINDOWS_ORA\COMMON\INSTALL\ORA\ORABRCOPY.SAR

3. Make sure that all redo log groups are archived.

4. Start the OraBRCopy tool as an OS user with Oracle DBA privileges:

Only valid for: UNIX |

■ Log on as one of the following users:

■ Log on as <sapsid>adm

■ Enter the following commands:

ora_br_copy.bat -generateFiles -forceLogSwitches -targetSid <TARGET_DBSID> -

password <system's password> -listenerPort <listener port>

End of: Windows |

5. 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.

NOTE

If an error occurs, check the log file:

<INSTDIR>/ora.brcopy.log

6. Verify and, if necessary, update the CONTROL.SQL control file using the CONTROL.TRC trace file as

follows.

Example

In the following example, entries of CONTROL.SQL written in bold should be compared and changed

according to the trace file. This is a Windows example, however, the changes to be made are valid for

UNIX, too.

5.1.2.1 Creating an Offline Backup

Procedure

Create an offline backup, if required. There are different possibilities for preparing 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.

■ 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 steps.

Page 41: System Copy 73 Java

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.

Procedure

CAUTION

To ensure that no changes are made to the file system during backup, stop the Software

Deployment Manager (SDM).

Proceed as described in the SAP Library [page 9] at:

SAP NetWeaver Library: Function-Oriented View Administration of Databases Database Administration for Oracle

SAP Database Guide: Oracle BR*Tools for Oracle DBA BR*Tools in Action Backup and Database Copy with

BR*Tools .

5.1.3 Preparing the Target System (Oracle)

Prerequisites

Make sure that sapdata<n> file systems on the target system host are large enough.

Procedure

1. Install the target SAP system with SAPinst as described in the installation documentation for your

SAP solution.

CAUTION

When you perform a system copy with the Oracle backup/restore method, you cannot

change the database schema and the tablespace names of the new target system. When

installing the target primary application server instance, the target database instance, or the

target additional application server instance make sure that you enter the correct database

schema names (which are the database schema names of the source system). The schema

names of the source and target system must be identical.

1. On the Welcome screen, choose <Your Product> System Copy Target System <System Variant>

<Technical Stack> .

2. When SAPinst prompts for the database copy method, choose Homogeneous System Copy (Backup/

Restore).

3. Proceed until SAPinst stops to restore the database files on the target system.

corresponding BR*Tools logs (BRBACKUP detailed and summary log, BRARCHIVE summary log) are

copied from the source to the target system. In addition, the postprocessing steps mentioned in

the SAP Note 1003028 are covered during the standard system copy procedure.

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 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

database installation method.

5 Database-Specific System Copy

5.2 SAP MaxDB-Specific Procedure

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 45/122

Page 46: System Copy 73 Java

This description is not valid for the liveCache system copy.

CAUTION

Make sure that you know the password of the database system administrator (SUPERDBA) from

the source system before you start the procedure below. Otherwise, you cannot access the

database contents on the target system.

You must also know the name of the SQL database schema on the source system, SAP<SAPSID> –

for example, SAPR3.

You can perform this procedure in the following ways:

■ Manual restore

SAPinst stops before the database instance initialization and asks you to perform the restore on the

target database. After you have performed restore and post-restore activities, you can continue the

installation in SAPinst.

■ Automatic restore

SAPinst performs the restore to import the data into the target system.

In this scenario, you have to use a single file as the backup medium for the whole backup. The

restore can use any SAP MaxDB backup, as long as it is a single file.

NOTE

The minimum size of the database is calculated from the size of the backup file.

Advantages

■ You can use existing offline backups.

■ This method is faster than the database-independent method using R3load or Jload [page 17].

Disadvantage

You can only copy between systems with the same byte order.

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 (manual restore)

You are using the SAP MaxDB Database Manager (DBMGUI) version 7.5.0 Build 12 or above. For

more information, see:

5 Database-Specific System Copy

46/122 PUBLIC 2011-11-07

Page 47: System Copy 73 Java

http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_6/default.htm Tools Database Manager GUI

Alternatively, you can use Database Studio. For more information, see:

http://maxdb.sap.com/doc/7_7/default.htm Tools Database Studio

■ 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

get 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.

Process

Steps to Perform on the Target System

1. To import the target system, start SAPinst as follows and then follow the prompts:

<Your Product> System Copy Target System <System Variant> <Technical Stack>

2. When SAPinst prompts for the database copy method, choose Homogeneous System Copy.

3. In the MaxDB Backup Template screen, choose one of the following, Manual Restore, or Restore by

SAPinst:

■ Manual restore

In the execution phase, you are prompted to do the following:

1. Start the data recovery wizard from DBMGUI

1. Register your database instance in the DBMGUI

2. Check the database instance 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.

Page 48: System Copy 73 Java

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.

2. After the restore, check the state of the target database instance. Change the database state

to online if it is not already in online state.

3. 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

4. Continue with SAPinst or restart it if you stopped it during the recovery.

■ Restore by SAPinst

Enter the following information:

● Template name

● Device/file

4. After installation is completed, maintain the database connection for CCMS.

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 17].

NOTE

● For more information about the system copy procedure, see also SAP Notes 193816 and

151603.

● As of SAP NetWeaver 7.1 you do no longer have to perform an export of the source

system.

● With SQL Server, you can use backup images across the platforms x86, IA64, x64. That is,

you can make a backup on one type of platform and use it on another type.

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 you

can use a DB2 backup cross-platform within certain limitations (see below), this method is not limited

to the homogenous system copy only.

NOTE

You can also create an SAP system copy with a DB2 database 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 the installation on the target system host as described in the installation

documentation for your SAP component. Before you start 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://

5.4 IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows-Specific Procedures

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 49/122

Page 50: System Copy 73 Java

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 17].

Disadvantages of the Backup Method

■ You cannot change the name of the database schema. The name of the database schema is 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 Information Center at http://

publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r7/ index.jsp?topic=/

com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.ha.doc/doc/c0005960.html.

■ If errors occur when restoring the backup on the target system, the complete restore must be

repeated.

Process

1. You perform an online or offline backup.

If you use an online backup to copy your system, a rollforward 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.

As of DB2 V9.5, logs are included in the online backup image as long as the option EXCLUDE LOGS

is not specified.

NOTE

To export the database content for Java, you can also use the database-specific method

(backup/restore).

2. To create a target system, run SAPinst on the target system host by choosing the following on the

Welcome screen:

<Your Product> System Copy Target System <System Variant> <Technical Stack>

Perform the installation options in the given sequence and follow the instructions on the SAPinst

dialogs. When SAPinst prompts for the database copy method, choose Homogeneous System Copy.

5 Database-Specific System Copy

5.4 IBM DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows-Specific Procedures

50/122 PUBLIC 2011-11-07

Page 51: System Copy 73 Java

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 can neither change the

connect user. 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 Setting up partitioned database

environments in the IBM DB2 Information Center at:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r7/ index.jsp?topic=/

com.ibm.db2.luw.qb.server.doc/doc/t0023605.html

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 manual DB2 Command Reference.

NOTE

With a simple restore, you can neither change the name nor 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 Information Center at:

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9r7/index.jsp?topic=/

com.ibm.db2.luw.admin.cmd.doc/doc/r0001976.html.

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.

You cannot use the brdb6brt tool to perform a redirected restore. By default, the brdb6brt

tool is not available in a Java only system. If you want to use it, you have to download from

SAP Service Marketplace. brdb6brt is part of the ABAP kernel.

NOTE

You do not have to export the database content for backup/restore with Jload. During

the dialog phase, SAPinst asks if you want to export the database content using database

tools or using Jload. If you choose the database tools, Jload is not used.

For more information, see SAP Note 1238351.

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 rollforward operation to bring

the database into a consistent state.

You can now continue with the installation.

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.

■ 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)

5.5 IBM DB2 for i Specific Procedure

In an SAP system environment, you can create a homogeneous system copy of a DB2 database using

theSAV/RSTLIB method.

A system copy consists of the export of the source system and the import of the target system. The

export is normally done by SAPinst. However, for the homogenous system on IBM DB2 for i using the

SAV/RSTLIB method you can only perform a SAVLIB of the library R3<SID>DATA. Finally, you have to

copy and transfer the saved database library to the IBM i host on which you want to create the target

system. The import will be performed similar to a normal installation.

You have to start the SAPinst by choosing <Your Product> System Copy Target System <System

Variant> Based on <Technical Stack> . When SAPinst prompts for the database copy method, you choose

Homogeneous System Copy for the database specific method. This method gives you the opportunity to

restore the saved library by using RSTLIB. SAPinst creates a restore command from your entered input

and restores the database library automatically.

Advantage of the Offline System Copy Method

This method is faster than the database-independent method [page 17].

5.5 IBM DB2 for i Specific Procedure

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 53/122

Page 54: System Copy 73 Java

This document assumes that the database schema of your SAP system is SAPR3. If you employ a different

schema, adapt the references to SAPR3 in the following SQL statements and jobs to reflect the actual

schema name.

The following section describes an offline system copy method for SAP systems on IBM DB2 for z/

OS.

For this example system copy, the high level qualifier of the source system is assumed to be D8A0 of the

target system D8B0.

System Copy Mode

If you install a primary application server instance on the target system, make sure that you select

Custom Mode.

Advantage of the Offline System Copy Method

This method is faster than the database-independent method [page 17].

Restriction of the Offline System Copy Method

At the moment, you cannot copy an individual MCOD component to another system. You can only

copy the complete system.

NOTE

The offline system copy must be performed by an experienced database administrator.

You can find an adapted procedure for an online system copy in the IBM documentation High

Availability for SAP on zSeries Using Autonomic Computing Technologies.

Prerequisites

The following prerequisites must be fulfilled to use this method:

■ The permissions of the source and target systems must be completely separate. The source system

must not be able to use the resources of the target system, and the target system must not be able

to use the resources of the source system.

■ RACF authorization for the target DB2 subsystem is complete.

■ Source and target systems must work with DB2 managed objects.

■ Tablespaces are not partitioned.

■ The system copy is made from a nondata sharing system to a nondata sharing system.

■ Procedures of the source and the target system are defined in the DB2 PROCLIB.

■ Source and target systems have their appropriate entries in the APF list.

■ Volumes of the source and target systems are managed by SMS.

■ Source and target systems run with the same DB2 service level.

Variables Used in this Procedure

■ Source System = D8A0

■ Target System = D8B0

■ Storage Group = TEMPORA

■ High Level Qualifier = HLQ

■ Boot Strap Data Set = BSDS

Main Steps in this Procedure

The following sections contain the detailed steps involved in the homogeneous system copy procedure

for DB2 for z/OS.

In the following steps, storage groups must be modified to apply the new high level qualifier. This can

be achieved by dropping and recreating the storage groups with the new high level qualifier (and

volumes).

To prepare the DB2 catalog of the target system, you must run JCL jobs created by SQLs running in

the source system.

The offline system copy can be divided into the following steps:

1. Check the Source System for Consistency

2. Stop and Restart the Source System

3. Run SQLs in the Source System

4. Capture View Definitions (if you intend to change the schema name.)

5. Stop the Source System

6. Print the Bootstrap Data Sets

7. Make Copies of the Source Data Sets

8. Create the Target System

9. Post-process the Target System

10. Changing the VCAT of the Target System

11. Changing the Schema of the Target System (DB2 V9 only)

12. Adapting WLM Application Environments for DB2 Stored Procedures

JCL jobs and SQL Statements

The JCL jobs and SQL Statements are now located in a compressed file (.zip) that is attached to SAP

Note 680746.

The path for each file is given in the section that previously contained the code.

5.6.1 Step 1: Check Consistency

The following is a list to help you check the source system for consistency.

■ Check if there are threads.

■ Check for authorized utilities using the following:

DISPLAY DATABASE(*) UTIL(*) and press [ENTER]

Your output should be:

5 Database-Specific System Copy

5.6 IBM DB2 for z/OS Specific Procedures

2011-11-07 PUBLIC 55/122

Page 56: System Copy 73 Java

No authorized utility found.

If there are running utilities, you must shut them down properly before continuing.

■ Ensure that all DB2 objects of the source system are started RW mode.

This can be checked with

DISPLAY DATABASE(*) SPACENAM(*)

with keyword

RESTRICT.

For more information, see DB2 UDB for z/OS and OS/390 Command Reference (SC26-9932-05).

■ If there are no objects in pending status, the source system must be stopped.

5.6.2 Step 2: Stop and Restart the Source System

Now you must stop and restart the source system with the ACCESS (MAINT) command option to

5.6.4 Step 4: Capturing View Definitions with DB2 V9 (if the Schema Name is to be Changed)

DB2 V9 adds the capability to change the VCAT name to the CATMAINT utility. This new capability

facilitates homogenous system copy. Moreover, the CATMAINT utility can change the schema and

creator of objects.

If you intend to also change the schema name as part of the homogeneous system copy, for example

for SAP Java systems, you need to capture the view definitions in this step. This is necessary since

renaming the schema using CATMAINT requires that no views exist on the tables for which a VCAT name

is changed. Therefore, the view definitions are exported in this step using R3ldctl.

Page 64: System Copy 73 Java

As part of the post-processing steps that are performed in the target system, the saved view definitions

are later used to re-create the views in the target system. The views may also be saved and later re-

created in the target system using alternative tools.

Procedure

To export the view definitions using R3ldctl:

1. Run R3ldctl without parameters to create the DDLDB2.TPL file, the SAPVIEW.STR file, and others

2. Store these files

5.6.5 Step 5: Stop the Source System

Stop the source system with the following command option:

MODE (QUIESCE)

5.6.6 Step 6: Making Copies of Source Data Sets

With this step, you make copies of the source data sets, which includes:

■ DB2 bootstrap data sets

■ DB2 logcopy data sets

■ All DB2 VSAM data sets belonging to the source system

With these JCL jobs, you can make copies of the source data sets:

■ HSCProcedure\Step6\DUMPA0.JCL

process.

5.6.7 Step 7: Creating the Target System

With the following JCL jobs, you create the target system.

In the first step, the dumps of the source system have to be restored. All data sets of the source system

have to be restored with the high level qualifier of the target system.

Sets [page 64] should not occur since DB2 is working with the new temporary files.

5.6.15 Step 9h: Implementing HLQ of the Target System in the Work File Database

In the next step, the work file database is changed to use the new HLQ D8B0.

Procedure

To change the work file database:

1. Drop work file database DSNDB07 in the target system, delete the clusters for 4K and 32K and create

them again.

If necessary, change the user authorizations of the target system. The DB2 catalog still contains the

authorizations of the source system.

5.6.18 Step 10 (DB2 V9): Changing the VCAT of the Target System

To change the VCAT that is used for the storage groups of your SAP tables and indexes, proceed as

follows.

Procedure

1. Ensure that the DB2 EMD pool and DB2 EDM DBD cache have at least the following sizes:

■ EDMPOOL ≥ 200000 KB

■ EDMDBDC ≥ 300000 KB

2. Call the CATMAINT utility with the UPDATE VCAT option to switch the VCAT name

3. Reinstate the original sizes of EDMPOOL and EDMDBDC.

4. Start the DB2 subsystem in regular mode

If necessary, change the user authorizations of the target system. The DB2 catalog still contains the

authorizations of the source system.

5.6.19 Step 11 (DB2 V9): Changing the Schema of the Target System

To change the schema or creator name of your SAP tables and indexes, proceed as follows. This approach

requires that you have previously started R3ldctl on your source system to capture the view definitions

of the SAP system.

Procedure

1. If user-defined materialized query tables or triggers exist, save their definitions in a separate place.

2. Delete all views, materialized query tables, and triggers that exist on the SAP tables.

6.3 Copying the Database Only – Refresh

With this procedure, you can refresh the content of an existing database without having to copy the

primary application server instance and to reinstall additional applications servers. The refresh can be

done using either database-specific methods or the SAP standard method based on R3load/Jload.

CAUTION

■ When copying the database only, you cannot change to another database but need to perform

a database-homogeneous copy.

Prerequisites

The source system and the target system already exist.

Procedure

1. On the source system, note down the IDs for each of the Java instances in the profile of the

application server.

The ID is stored in the instance as parameter j2ee/instance_id.

2. On the source system, run SAPinst on UNIX or Windows [page 20] or run SAPinst on IBM i [page 23] to

perform the export.

3. If you perform the export using R3load/Jload, on the Welcome screen, choose <Your Product>

System Copy Source System Based on <Technical Stack> Database Instance Export to export the

database.

If you perform the export using database-specific tools, you must start them manually.

4. On the target system, stop all SAP instances.

5. Run SAPinst and choose <Your Product> System Copy Target System <System Variant> Based on

<Technical Stack> Database Refresh or Move to install the database.

Page 74: System Copy 73 Java

6. When SAPinst has completed the installation of the database, adapt the profiles in the application

server on the target system by reassigning the profile IDs of the Java instances. Make sure that they

are the same as on the source system.

NOTE

If there are more application servers on the target system than on the source system, you

have to reinstall the ones that additionally exist on the target system.

EXAMPLE

Source System:

ABC_DVEBMGS88_<host1>:j2ee/instance_id = ID8873787

ABC_D00_<host1>:j2ee/instance_id = ID32225

ABC_D20_<host2>:j2ee/instance_id = ID2078823

Target System (before reassignment):

XYZ_DVEBMGS77_<host1>:j2ee/instance_id = ID7732291

XYZ_D00_<host2>:j2ee/instance_id = ID74637

XYZ_D01_<host1>:j2ee/instance_id = ID129016

Target System (after reassignment):

XYZ_DVEBMGS77_<host1>:j2ee/instance_id = ID8873787

XYZ_D00_<host2>:j2ee/instance_id = ID32225

XYZ_D01_<host1>:j2ee/instance_id = ID2078823

CAUTION

One application server (AS) is assigned to exactly one Java instance, and the other way around.

That means that, in the target system, you need to assign every Java instance in the database to

exactly one application server. You cannot assign the same Java instance to more than one

application server.

7.1.2.2 Software Unit-Specific Follow-Up Activities

You have to perform the following activities for specific software units of the copied SAP system.

7.1.2.2.1 AS Java: Adobe Document Services

Procedure

Copying Files to the Target System

After performing a system copy, some additional files need to be copied manually from the original

ADS system to the target system.

1. Copy the following files and subdirectories:

■ DIR_GLOBAL\AdobeDocumentServices\TrustManagerService\trust\*.*

■ DIR_GLOBAL\AdobeDocumentServices\JobProfiles\Custom\*.*

■ DIR_GLOBAL\AdobeDocumentServices\FontManagerService\fonts\customer\*.*

■ DIR_GLOBAL\AdobeDocumentServices\lib\custom_*.*

2. If you have adjusted the threshold for error file logging in the ADS, or if you are not sure whether

you have adjusted it, copy the following file to your target system:

DIR_GLOBAL\AdobeDocumentServices\lib\renderErrorLog\renderErrorLogConfig.xml

3. If you have made modifications to any XDC files, copy all XDC files to your target system:

DIR_GLOBAL\AdobeDocumentServices\lib\*.xdc

1. Adjust the RFC connection ADS.

Make sure you change the server name, the port, and the authentication information to match

the target system.

2. Create the HTTP destination FP_ICF_DATA_<SAPSID of target system>.

7.1.2.2.2 EP Core – Application Portal (EPC)

7.1.2.2.2.1 EPC: Portal

If trust between a portal and any other system is required, then you need to replace certificates and re-

establish trust with the newly copied system on which the portal is installed. For more information,

see Generating Public-Key Certificates [page 76].

If you have more than one portal in your landscape and the portals share content via a federated portal

network (FPN), refer to SAP Note 1080080 for more information about post-system copy configuration

steps.

7.1.2.2.3 Enterprise Portal (EP)

7.1.2.2.3.1 EP: Knowledge Management and Collaboration

After the system copy, the Knowledge Management and Collaboration (KMC) target system still has

access to the same data as the original source system. If the source and target system have write access

to the same data, this results in serious inconsistencies in both systems. For this reason, it is essential to

prevent both systems from using the same data.

Critical items that are accessed by both systems are, for example:

■ Indexes for search and classification (TREX)

■ Data in external repositories, for example, on file system shares

■ Data on groupware servers

Procedure

To prevent source and target system from working with the same data, reconfigure the following

components on the target system:

■ TREX

■ Collaboration

The tables below summarize the configuration steps for each of the components and specify where

you can find more information.

TREX

After the system copy, the target system is still connected to the same TREX installation as the source

system. For this reason you need to install a new instance of TREX and connect it to the target system.

CAUTION

While KMC is still connected to the old TREX installation, do not delete any indexes, otherwise

they will also be deleted on the source system.

Content Exchange If content exchange is in use, the configuration on the source and target system is identical. However, it does not make sense to have the same content exchange procedures configured twice. For this reason, you delete the configuration on the target system and, if required, set up a new configuration. To remove the existing configuration on the target system, you run a cleanup file: ■ Download the cleanup file attached to SAP

7.1.2.2.7 Development Infrastructure (DI)

You have to perform the following manual steps on the target system after the move of an SAP system

with software unit Development Infrastructure (DI). The assumption here is that all components

(DTR, CBS, CMS, SLD, CM Services, and name server) were on a single host before the move and will

remain on a single host after the move.

Procedure

1. If you are using an LDAP server for user management it should be running to ensure that all the

users that were created when the Development Infrastructure (DI) was on the source system will

still be valid after the move to the target system.

2. Check the J2EE engine configuration:

■ Set MaxHeapSize and other engine parameters to the recommended values.

For more information, see the corresponding section in your installation guide.

■ Only valid for: MaxDB |

If your database is MaxDB:,

1. Upgrade it to at least version 29.

2. Set the JOIN_OPERATOR_IMPLEMENTATION parameter to IMPROVED (setting this value is only

possible using the DB-WebUI in SAPMMC).

3. Restart the database.End of: MaxDB |

The service properties JDK_HOME_PATHS, BUILD_TOOL_JDK_HOME, rootFolder, and

threadPoolSize have to be adjusted according to the hardware and software configuration of the

new system.

For more information about these parameters, see the corresponding section in your installation

guide.

6. Change Management Service (CMS):

The main steps in CMS involve resetting the fields containing URLs to other components (such

as DTR, CBS, SLD).

■ If CMS has not been configured yet, proceed as follows:

1. Copy the folder /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/CMS<host><SID>, including its content, to the

target host.

2. Rename the folder to the new host value and new SAPSID (if changed).

3. Make sure that the engine user (<SID>adm) has write permissions in the copied folder.

■ If CMS has been configured and you have used it already, proceed as follows:

1. For the domain (in the Domain Data tab):

1. Change the SLD URL to point to the target host.

2. Change the CMS URL to point to the target host.

3. Change the transport directory to the appropriate directory on the new CMS (target

host).

4. Save the domain. You should see a status message that the data was saved successfully.

5. Update CMS (choose Update CMS). You should see a status message that the CMS

update was successfully.

2. Copy the contents of the transport directory of the old CMS (source system) to the

transport directory of the new CMS (target system). The transport directory is configured

in the domain (see Domain Data tab).

3. For each track (in the Track Data tab):

1. Change the CBS and DTR URLs.

2. For each runtime system that is defined, change the runtime system configuration

to point to the appropriate host (of the target runtime system).

If this has not changed, leave the fields unchanged.

3. Save the track definition.

You should see a status message that the data was saved successfully.

4. Restore System State (of the DEV system). This will place the Software Components

(SCs) into the import queue of this system.

5. Import these SCs. After the import is finished, you should see a status for each SC.

7. CM Services:

The main steps in CM Services involve resetting fields that contain URLs to other components

(such as DTR, CBS, SLD). Proceed as follows:

1. On the System Landscape Directory tab, adapt the SLD URL and the CM Services URL to the target

host.

These data are valid for all development configurations on this server.

2. On the Local Settings tab, perform the following steps for each development configuration:

1. Development configurations of type Stand-Alone only: Copy the content of both the inbox

and outbox directories of CM Services in the source system to the corresponding

directories of CM Services in the target system.

2. Change the CBS and DTR URLs.

3. Save the development configuration.

8. IDE:

■ Change the SLD URL in the preference page of the SAP NetWeaver Development Studio (under

Preferences Development Infrastructure Landscape Directory ).

This should now point to the new SLD on the target system.

■ Import the development configuration you had earlier used for development.

Now you are ready to begin the development with you new (relocated) Development

Infrastructure (DI).

9. Verification Steps (optional)

The following steps can optionally be done to verify that the Development Infrastructure (DI) is

fully functional after the move:

1. Log on to the DTR (using the browser) for all defined users and browse the repository.

2. Using IDE, create a new Development Component (DC), checking and activate:

■ The activation should succeed.

■ The name of the Development Component (DC) must be reserved on the name server.

3. Release the activity created above (from the Transport view in the IDE):

The activity (Change Request) should appear in the import queue of the CONS system of the

track.

4. Import the Change Request into the CONS system (from the CMS Transport Studio).

5. Assemble a new version of your Software Components (SCs) in one of the tracks.

8.1.2 Starting the Java Migration Monitor

The application allows you to specify options in the command line or in the export or import property

files. The names of the property files are export.jmigmon.properties and

import.jmigmon.properties.

Any options specified in the command line take precedence over the corresponding options in the

application property file. Options are case-sensitive; any options that are not recognized are ignored.

Prerequisites

NOTE

We recommend to create a certain directory and start the tool from there, because the Java

Migration Monitor produces log and trace files in the current working directory.

Before you run the Java Migration Monitor, set the following environment variables:

■ SLTOOLS_HOME

Set this variable to the following directory:

Value Description

0 Package export/import not yet started.

? Package export/import in progress.

- Package export/import finished with errors.

+ Package export/import finished successfully.

8.1.4 Restarting Jload Processes

The state file allows package states to be manually updated to restart failed Jload processes.

EXAMPLE

If package processing failed and the package state has the value “–”, you can set the state to “0” to

restart the package processing.

Procedure

■ To restart package processing, set the package state from “-” to “0”.

■ To skip package processing, set the package state from “0” or “-” to “+”.

CAUTION

This is not recommended because it can cause inconsistent data files or database content.

■ If the package is currently being processed (package state is “?”) then any manual modifications of

the package state are ignored.

8.3.1 Useful Information About SAPinst

■ When you start SAPinst, SAPinst GUI, and the GUI server are also started. SAPinst GUI connects

using a secure SSL connection to the GUI server and the GUI server connects to SAPinst.

Only valid for: UNIX |

■ SAPinst normally creates the 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 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 in 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 option, called <sapinst_instdir>

\<installation_option>, which is located in %ProgramFiles%.

■ 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 called sapinst_exe.xxxxxx.xxxx sometimes remain in the temporary directory. You

can safely delete them.

The temporary directory also contains the SAPinst Self-Extractor log file dev_selfex.out, which

might be useful if an error occurs.

If you want to terminate SAPinst and the SAPinst Self-Extractor, do one of the following:

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).

■ During the installation, the default ports 21200, 21212, and 4239 are used for communication

between SAPinst, GUI server, SAPinst GUI, and HTTP server, as follows:

● SAPinst uses port 21200 to communicate with the GUI server.

● The GUI server uses port 21212 to communicate with SAPinst GUI.

● 4239 is the port of the HTTP server, which is part of the GUI server.

If these ports are already in use, SAPinst automatically searches for free port numbers. If the search

fails, you see an error message and SAPinst exits.

In this case or if you want SAPinst to use specific ports, open a command prompt and change to

the required directory as follows:

cd /d <drive>:\DATA_UNITS\IM_WINDOWS_<platform>.

Execute sapinst.exe with the following commands:

● SAPINST_DIALOG_PORT=<port_number_sapinst_to_gui_server>

Troubleshooting

CAUTION

If an export process aborts due to a hardware failure (for example, file system full), 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 subsequently 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. Currently it is not possible

to automatically distribute the export over different file systems.

■ If an error occurs during the dialog phase, SAPinst:

● Stops the export.

● Displays a dialog that informs you about the error.

You can now directly view the log file by choosing View Logs.

Finally you must abort the export with OK and try to solve the problem.

■ If an error occurs during the processing phase, SAPinst:

● Stops the export.

● Displays a dialog that informs you about the error.

You can now:

● Directly view the log file by choosing View Logs.

● Try to solve the problem.

● Continue the export by choosing Retry.

● Abort the export by choosing OK.

■ System Copy - export on UNIX (especially for upgraded systems)

Symptom:

8.3.2 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.

CAUTION

If you stop an option in the Execute phase, any system or component installed by this option

is incomplete and not ready to be used. Any system or component uninstalled by this option

is not completely uninstalled.

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.

Alternative Behavior

Run a new option SAPinst does not continue the interrupted installation option. Instead, it moves the content of the old installation directory and all installation-specific files to a backup directory. Afterwards, you can no longer continue the old installation option.

NOTE

All action taken by the installation before you stopped it (like creating directories, or users) will not be revoked.

For the backup directory, the following naming convention is used:<log_day_month_year_hours_minutes_seconds>.

EXAMPLE

log_01_Oct_2008_13_47_56

CAUTION

SAPinst moves all the files and folders to a new log directory, even if these files and folders are owned by other users. If there are any processes currently running on these files and folders, they might no longer function properly.

Continue with the old option SAPinst continues the interrupted installation from the point of failure.
