XI to PI Integration Directory migration

[former_member745782]

hello everybody,

I need migrate a XI scenario vs a new PI 7.1 installation.

No problem for SLD and Repository, but i have problems with Directory.

During import PI ask me the transport target, but i cannot have in my case because we have just one XI installation and we want migrate Business scenario poit to point. BS need maintain the same name .

It's possible?

or i need create again all ID by hand?

thanks

Hi Allesandro,

I've experienced this and a little bit tricky in terms of migrating objects in in Integration Directory from old environment like XI to PI (7.1 or 7.3).

You probably created use new SLD of PI and migrated all SLD content from XI to PI? (Please confirm)

If yes, are migrating objects from your XI production to your new PI development or migrating XI Dev objects to PI Dev Objects?

hi R-Jay.

I answer you:

-You probably created use new SLD of PI and migrated all SLD content from XI to PI? (Please confirm) YES

- If yes, are migrating objects from your XI production to your new PI development or migrating XI Dev objects to PI Dev Objects? I migrate from XI dev to new PI dev

Hi Alessandro,

Have you tried to import the business system directly from the SLD and activate and later try to import the .tpz configuration files from your old system?

Hi Alessandro,

I agree with Raj. SAP says that is possible:

Point 3.2.2

hi Vila,

mmhhh

sorry but in poit 3.2.2 i don't see answer to my question ((

I see this tile:  Summary of Activities for Phase out.

They say "transport Integration Directory" but they don't say HOW in my case

[rajasekhar_reddy14]

I think in old environment Transport target created in SLD but when your transporting configuration scenario it is expecting Transport target.

SOlution:

Remove Transport target confguration in old SLD and new SLD and import configurtaion scenarios.

hi Raj!

thanks a lot for your help.

I tried to follow your suggestion but i still to have same error.

It's not possible disable this control?

Or execute a DB copy but without Repository part?

thanks

Hello.

If you SLD configuration of the new PI is ok - you should go to:

Environment -> Clear SLD Data cache

try to import the BS again after that.

If the problem is that you cannot import the SLD content - then try and manually change it to define the transport groups

[rajasekhar_reddy14]

Can you check in SLD bussiness system assinged to which integration server?

Delete bussiness system(if created in  new instalation SLD) and create once again.

If still no luck Restart system completely.

[former_member745782]

i tried with all these suggestions.

Still to have problem

it's not possible disable the control??

[former_member745782]

hello.

I solved my problem.

I changed the BS names and migrate all from old production system.

thanks to everybody

Hi Alex,

There is a concept is called Transport Traget and Groups  so check below my blog

http://scn.sap.com/people/rajasekhar.reddy14/blog/2011/02/21/transport-targets-and-groups-in-the-sld

If you are transporting objects from old PI system to new PI System then create same Bussiness system name in new System and transport the objects it should work.

Hi Raj,

i read your blog.

But this is the normal procedure.

With 3 groups, 3 PI, transport target.

My situation is different.

I cannot use transport target because all systems have same name! and i need migrate the old XI in new PI and maintain same Systems name.

I hope u understand me

Alex

[rajasekhar_reddy14]

Then you dont required any Transport Traget and Groups, create same identical names in new environment and import bussiness systems in ID then import configuration scenarios. it should work.

[former_member745782]

i tried to do this but don't work!

ID give me error:

Obligatory transport target for business system

so seems transport taget is obligatory
