Hi,

From above file it seems requirement is as below:

Folder/File Name :DATA1

FIle Size: 12700 MB

Folder/File Name :DAT2

FIle Size: 12700 MB

Folder/File Name :DATA

FIle Size: 12700 MB

Folder/File Name :LOG1

FIle Size: 1000 MB

You dont need same support package level in target system for system copy.

Revert for any clarification.

hi Kaushal,

Thanks for you response. it means ,12700 MB 12700 MB12700 MB+1000MB of free space required in my Target system? and i can maintaine the default Support Pack and Kernel level after the new installation in my Target system. am i correct?

Yes Same space is reuired on target system also. once you installed your new new system with your existing system export then all the support pack level will be same on both system. You need to upgrade your Suport Pack.

Hi siva,

Also, tell me is it mandatory to have the same support pack and Kernel level in both Source and Target system, before doing the system copy in target sytem?

When you system , your target system become image of source system , you will get all the pakage and patch level similar to source system.

Thanks
