I am not sure where the problem is rely either OS issue or SAPINST issue. I noticed that SAPINST able to create BI0PCUSTOMER.STR but not able to create BI0PCUSTOMER.TSK and generate error with invalid character. For the DB export, I am using latest kernel and DVD number is 51033746. Before I performed the database export, I did run the report SAP_DROP_TMPTABLES, SAP_UPDATE_DBDIFF and SMIGR_CREATE_DDL.

Let me know if you guys have solution.

Thanks and Regards

Hi Chris,

The table name is /BI0/PCUSTOMER. It's a transparent table. I am doubt to use the SAVLIB/RSTLIB as my source system is V5R3 while the target version is V7R1. I felt weird that the SAPINST able to create BI0PCUSTOMER.STR but not able to create BI0PCUSTOMER.TSK.

If you are copying to another DB4 system, then just use the native SAV/RST method.

If you are migrating to a different DB, then I can't help you. However reading the messages, It looks like the leading '_' is the problem (a character has to be at first position). Which most likely means that SAP doesn't use this table(??). Is the table in DDIC? What does the consistency check show?
