Yes - it is.

> The new server is not the same configuration of the Development

That is no problem - you will "just" need to adapt the script you create during the system copy to reflect your filesystem layout.

Just read the guide and follow the procedure for doing a copy using backup/restore.

You did not change the init<SID> filepath but you deleted everything else:

> BR0681I Enter string value for "command" [-p initTRG.sap -t complete -i 30 -s 20 -l E]:

> E:sapbackupdzvbzlncntrlTRG.DBF

you need to add everything if you need to change this path (so "-p initTRG.sap -t complete.... etc.)
