Hello,
The last time I had run a system copy on source system (export),
I was able to perform it with the db up and sap r3 down.
Is it still possible to perform the same way with SWPM?
If I run the following:
-> SAP Business Suite 7 SR1
--> Enhancement Package 4 for SAP ERP 6.0
---> SAP Application Server ABAP
----> Software Life-Cycle Options
-----> System Copy
------> Oracle
-------> Source System Export
--------> Central System
---------> Based on AS ABAP
----------> Database Instance Export
I have the following error:
---
An exception occurred while connecting to the message server instance PRD/DVEBMGS00 on host xxx, port 13900. DIAGNOSIS: The original exception was: wapsmod.ms.MsAttachFailed: Connect to message server (xxx/13900) failed: MSENILAYER.. SOLUTION: Make sure that the message server is started.

Thanks in advance for your answer.
Hi,
Try to take a export using the following option.
Sapinst SAPINST_USE_HOSTNAME=<DBHOSTNAME>
You can find the dbhostname in default profile in the profile directory.
Please try in this way and share your feedback
Thanks and Regards,
Vimal

Hi Benoit,
Please start the SAP instance and then initiate the SWPM. Initially it may perform some checks and then prompt you to shutdown the SAP instance before starting the export. ( The same feature was available with SAPINST).
I have copied the DB on another host without SAP.
In order to avoid side effects, I would like to avoid starting SAP on this host.
Therefore can I run the system copy whithout having to start SAP,
as it was possible in previous versions?
Thanks in advance for your answer.
Hi Benoit,
As per your information SAP is running on distributed environment and you are running SWPM on the database host. ( Correct me for my understanding).
If my understanding is correct, could you start the SWPM from the Central instance host.
Post the results after that.

It is a little bit more complicated.
I have restored a productive DB on a recovery and isolated host.
Now I would like to run test migmon export to evaluate the export time
with different configuration and maybe table splitting.
On this host I have restored the DB, the Oracle Kernel and also the SAP profile.
I can restore the kernel too if needed.
But I do not want to start this productive SAP to avoid side effects related to external interfaces.
Therefore I run it on a pseudo DB host and I do not want to run this a the real productive server.
Does it answer your questions?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi Benoit,
On the restored system you need to ensure that R3trans -d works as well as profile parameters are maintained correctly. Especially the hostname should be changed in the profile parameters.
Even if you do not start the SAP instance and maintain correct hostname and R3trans -d works file, SWPM should proceed.

If I create sidadm and restore the kernel (/sapmnt/SID/exe),
shoud it be enough?
Thanks in advance for your answer.
Hi Benoit,
You will need to
1) Restore kernel
2) Create sidadm and restore environment from source. Tweak it to match target hostname and paths
3) Adapt SAP profile to match target hostname
4) Ensure /etc/services has all the port entries include 3600/tcp sapms<SID>
5) Check the results for R3trans -d is (0000).
