I plan Homogeneous system copy for 4.7.x.1.1 windows/oracle at a

customer

downloaded tools(do I have to put extracted files on the sorce machine

in kernel directory?):

MIGMON_2-20001410

MIGMON_2-20001410.SAR

MIGTIME_2-20001410

MIGTIME_2-20001410.SAR

ORABRCOPY_2-20001410

ORABRCOPY_2-20001410.SAR

SAPCAR_5-10002026

SAPCAR_5-10002026.EXE

SPLIT_2-20001410

SPLIT_2-20001410.SAR

I would have additional questions.

1. In note 516246(System copy for SAP Systems based on SAP Web AS 6.20)

it is mentioned to download the latest version of R3LDCTL and apply it

to the system. I have following questions:

under service.sap.com/patches

i found only

R3LDCTL

Support Package SAP KERNEL 4.5B 32-BIT Windows Server on IA32 32bit

ORACLE

Is this file ok?(I will perform a homogeneous system copy of an 4.7x1.1

system)

If the file is ok what is meant as apply?(put it in kernel directory?)

2. Very similar question applies to file R3szchk

under service.sap.com/patches I found only

R3szchk

Support Package SAP KERNEL 4.6C 32-BIT Windows Server on IA32 32bit

ORACLE

Is this file ok?(I will perform a homogeneous system copy of an 4.7x1.1

system)

3.In same note(516246) the SAPinst CD is mentioned. How could I get it?

4.On the Source system I have kernel 640. I guess I have to copy the

content of this directory to the target system also. But in which phase?

At first i did not find SAPINSTCD on the net. So I guess I have all info.

One (I hope the last question). It is 5 years since my last dealing with windows/oracle.

To check the database coding (anyway for 9.2.0.3.0 without preavios upgrade should be we8dec).

I gues based on oracle upgrade on unix (version92.x.x)now the comand from command prompt is "sqlplus" and not "svrmgr"(or something like that).

By theway Mr Herzog would it be possible (faster)to contact you via a mail or an handy(if an urgecy arrises)?

hi,

yup..

-> sqlplus /nolog

-> connect / as sysdba

would do the job

-> we8dec is the right choice when oracle was installed either as 8i or 9i...but be sure to check in advance!

sorry...no handy...try to reach me (and other profound knowledge keepers ggg ) here @ sdn!

-> are you planning to use ONLY the sapinst-executable or

-> do you need the sapinst-cd?

let me have a look @ official instguide...

<b>-> you need at least the sapinstcd, the kernel-cd and the db-cds...</b> so plz download/provide all relevant cds...use the sapinst on the cd! (only patch if sap tells you so!!! -> note etc.)

btw...you do not need the copy tools..you can, but you don't need to use them! if you use them, plz read the provided pfd-files thoroughly!!!

-> do you have the relevant inst-guides & notes at hand?

Mr. Herzog

Your answers seems very very helpfull. (I can give you points right now but I would prefer to reward you with "solved my problem")

I plan r3load procedure for windows.

I downloaded mentioned files except sapinst. I found an "sapinst" under

Support Packages and Patchesc -> SAP Application Components -> SAP R/3 ENTERPRISE -> SAP R/3 ENTERPRISE 47X110 -> Entry by Component -> SAP R/3 Enterprise Server -> SAP KERNEL 6.40 32-BIT -> Windows Server on IA32 32bit -> #Database independent -> SAPINST6401_1-20000182.SAR

Is this the right one(extracted it is only one file (not a CD like structure)? Can I use (at least for DB export SAP installation Master CD)

What you ment as GGG?

What about the system copy tools? I downloaded:

MIGMON_2-20001410

MIGMON_2-20001410.SAR

MIGTIME_2-20001410

MIGTIME_2-20001410.SAR

ORABRCOPY_2-20001410

ORABRCOPY_2-20001410.SAR

SAPCAR_5-10002026

SAPCAR_5-10002026.EXE

SPLIT_2-20001410

SPLIT_2-20001410.SAR

I guess I have to extract them in kernel directory(don't i?)

I plan to go to customer.

Thank you again(you helped me enurmously)

hi,

first my question GGG

-> by which means do you plan to copy? brbackup/brrestore? r3copy? r3load?

ad 1.

SAPNet -> Patches -> Add. Components -> SAP Kernel -> 32 BIT (uni oder non-uni depending on your environment) -> SAP Kernel 6.40 32-bit -> Windows Srv -> Oracle -> R3ldctl_6-20000185.SAR (13.07.2006) is the right file (your kernel is 6.40!!!)

ad 2.

SAPNet -> Patches -> Add. Components -> SAP Kernel -> 32 BIT (uni oder non-uni depending on your environment) -> SAP Kernel 6.40 32-bit -> Windows Srv -> Oracle -> R3szchk_12-20000185.SAR is the right file (your kernel is 6.40!!!)

ad 3.

SAPNet -> SWDC (= Downloads) -> Download -> Inst. and Upgrades -> Entry by applic. group -> SAP Applic. Components -> SAP R/3 Enterprise -> Ent. 47X110 -> Installation -> Windows Server -> Oracle -> CD SAP R3E 4.7x1.10 SR1 SAPINST ORACLE (CD N° 51019679)

ad 4.

not really....it depends on the strategy (see my question above)...you first install the database software (oracle), then the central instance using sapinst, afterwards you will install the database instance using sapinst as well; while installing the db instance you have to chose db copy (or homogeneous copy, system copy) as the "database installation method" if you choose to copy the database files or did a backup if you choose to use the export/import method (using standard r3load) you will use the SystemCopy method as well but you will point (later on) to the directory where you (source) db export lies.

brrestore or copy method:

=========================

sapinst will popup at the appropriate point that the db load has to be done and depending on your strategy you have either to restore or copy files...

by the way: did you already export/backup/copy your source system?

if any further questions arise feel free to post
