Heterogeneous system copy

[Former Member]

Dear all,

We have performed Heterogeneous system copy for our Test system using

standard R3load/syscopy-migration procedure

from Oracle 9.2.0.7/HP-UX platform to Windows / MSSQL 2005 platform.

When we loginto the system we get SICK error as below.

SAP System Check

DB CHECK SQL 9.0 should not use text/image datatypes Please see note 126973

DB CHECK DB CHECK DB CHECK DB CHECK DB CHECK DB CHECK DB CHECK DB CHECK

Severe problems were detected during initial system check.

Please, do not use that system before fixing these problems.

Have anybody faced this issue , do i need to perform anby schema conversion

but current owner of this newly installed system is ' db1 '

Regards,

Hi,

Did you check Note 126973 - SICK messages with MS SQL Server

You did not import the required Support Packages.

Solution:

Proceed as described in Note 799058.

Hi,

Provide the support package level and kernel patch level for your SAP system.

Kernel 640 patch level 43

SAP_BASIS 0009

Ohh...thanks for this check...I guess newly installed system is running low on patch level ( initial patch level ) which may be creating the issue.

I am doing heterogeneous syscopy first time, please let me know if fixing the patch

level would resolve this issue.??

Also kidnly suggess any other activities i may need to cosider before user can actually test this migrated system.

HI,

The minimum basis support package levels to run on SQL Server 2005 are: (Note 799058)

basis release 640 -> 15

you need to upgrade your kernel also.
