IMG - Target client is productive and protected against client copy

[teengh_hergh]

I am doing post-installation for Solution Manager 4.0 and encounter the above error.

From the IMG Solution Manager Basic Settings ... --> Create Client, I created client 020 and the role = customizing. Protection Level 0 and allow change to repository and cross-client customizing. Then, I click on Copy Client, it gave me the above error.

I could not find any information regarding the correct way to work around it. I tried to log into client 020 with SAP*/PASS to do manual client copy, but could not login either.

Anyone ran into this problem? Please share your successful instructions.

Thanks.

Hi Teengh,

you can only do the client-copy in the target client; in your case in client 020.

Please have a look in TA scc4 whether the client 020 was really created. If it is existing, then you should be able to log on to the client 020 with sap*/pass (password in lower case). What was the error message after you could not login?

Best regards,

Kai

Hi Teengh,

What Kai mentioned is correct. You need to login to the newly created client with sap*/pass to do the client copy.

Before that the profile parameter login/no_automatic_user_sapstar has to maintained as 0. the default is 1

Yes, that is it.

I created the profile entriy login/no_automatic_user_sapstar and set the value to 0 and I was able to ligin to client 020 for the client copy.

Thanks.

Hi Teengh ,

You should use master password you provided during installation .

or

use the parameter in source client

login/no_automatic_user_sapstar 0

Let us know if it works
