Export of Java system failing

[Former Member]

Hello,

I'm trying to do a system copy of our production PI system and create a new QA PI system. According to OSS note 585277, we are going to do the SAVLIB/RSTLIB method. That is working fine.

However, the first part of the note talks about doing the export of the java system using the SAPinst program. Our system is a NW 7.00 system, so we need to perform the export of the java side to get the SDM portion of the java engine. We are using the database-specific option as stated in the documentation, but during the export we are getting an error in the "Export from Java central instance" step. Looking at the sapinst.log file there is an error that says the following: FCO-00011 The step setSDMStandAloneMode with step key |NW_Export|ind|ind|ind|ind|0|0|NW_Java_Export_Dialog|ind|ind|ind|ind|5|0|NW_JAVA_Export_CI|ind|ind|ind|ind|3|0|setSDMStandAloneMode was executed with status ERROR .

The is the only log that is getting updated. The one other thing is that the system is up and running during the export of the java portion.

Has anyone every done this or seen this error or had any experience with this? Does the system need to be down in order to complete this?

Thanks,

Hi,

To be sure the SDM is changing its state to standalone mode, could you execute the statements, below?

• Under "/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<xx>/SDM/program"

• StopServer.sh

• sdm jstartup "mode=standalone"

• StartServer.sh

At this stage, check the log output, on the screen. To set to to integrated state;

• Under "/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<xx>/SDM/program"

• StopServer.sh

• sdm jstartup "mode=integrated"

• StartServer.sh

The issue here was that the <sid>ADM user needed to have a valid password.
