Unable to open the export file during Import ABAP phase on tar(System copy)

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We are encountering the following error during Import ABAP phase on target system as we are performing system copy on target system as part of hardware migration(Data center migration).

Scenario:

Sourrce system - BI- ABAP(7.01), Win 2003 x64 unicode,Oracle 10.2.0.4

Target system - BI-ABAP(7.01), Win 2008 R2 unicode, Oracle 11.2.0.1

Actually on source system the data has been generated using migration monitor by using table splitting option and transferred on target system thru ftp option.

During Import process while selecting the Database installation type we have selected the installation method as "Standard systemcopy/Migration(load based)" and not checked the option "Start Migration montior Manually".

As far as my concern this error has nothing to do with this selection.please correct me If i am wrong.

Hi Dheeraj,

After the installation of oracle 11g have you installed the latest opatch?. If you have done this upgrade the kernel to the latest and retry the installation. For installing oracle 11g on windows we have to upgrade your kernel to latest.

Thanks it's solved.

After copying the export dump on local drive and upgrading the latest kernel and r3load it has resolved.

and transferred on target system thru ftp option.

So 10.207.3.59 is your targer system?, so why the import is pointing to a shared drive (d$)?

ERROR: Unable to open 
10.207.3.59\d$\ftproot\import_sap\BWS\ABAP\DATA\ARFCSDATA.TOC

Try using the local path or if reading from NFS do not use hidden shares, assign a proper share name to it also use the hostname rather than the IP where possible, it should be no problem if you maintain the hosts file.

\\10.207.3.59\d$\ftproot\import_sap\BWS\ABAP\DATA\ARFCSDATA.TOC

Please check if above said file located under specified path where SAPINST searvhing for it ie at
10.207.3.59\d$\ftproot\import_sap\BWS\ABAP\DATA. if this file dont exist them it may be the case that your export is not proper.

Also check if user from which you have started this SAPINST is able to access
10.207.3.59\d$\ftproot\import_sap\BWS\ABAP\DATA.

Thanks..

Hi,

Please check these points:

1. Authorization of the user (by which you run SAPinst tool) to access the target folder where export is stored, folder should be reachable and readable.

2. Oracle version is not same in source and target systems, sometimes issuees are coming from the oracle executable/kernel. First import process with same version and then oracle upgrade is recommended to avoid such problems.

3. Are <SID>adm/ora<SID> users and passwords OK in SAPUSER table? You can check it by brtools.

Thanks,

Subrata
