Good day,
I'm looking for information on what automation tasks(exactly) the Enterprise version of LVM can do when it comes to performing a copy/refresh ? It is important to be able to see what value this product can have for us with the particular system configurations we use. I received a license costing but I need to be able to see how much of the automation tasks it can or cannot do before I can make an informed decision.
Any information would be grateful.
Thanks.
Regards,
Nelis
Hi Nelis,
we have a central SAP note with more information on SAP LVM:
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/1527538
From there you can navigate to more information on
For BW System Copy / HANA migration there is a separate page on SCN with more details:
http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-32414
As a first high-level overview on PCA - the following tasks are included:
System Refresh:
Initial System Copy:
You can check out the details in your ABAP system by opening the Task List editor and browsing through the system copy / refresh lists, once your system is on the minimum SP level (see note).
For Java Systems:
System Refresh:
Initial System Copy:
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Markus

Hello Markus, I'm currently testing sap lvm but i have a few questions about the pca.
do we have to execute those task list in those clients?
Thank you very much, any help would be appreciated.
Sorry about my english
Hello Volker, thank you for answering, about the initial copy i have a system based NW 7.31 and i can't see that option in the task list, I attach the images regarding the tasks that i'm able to see, but since i'm not running the tasks list manually but using the LVM i can't check items in the list, what i think i can do is to make a variant and then run the process with that variant is this how it should work?.
About the clients for bdls i'm not that familiarized with early watch but it is nice to know that I should not run the bdls in client 066, do you know if I should run it on client 000, client 001 or client 301 or in all of them?
Thank you very much.
Hello Nelis,
You can also find additional information in the LVM FAQ document, that might help you better understand the overall value of SAP LVM.

Are people actually buying the high cost of PCA without knowing exactly what it can do ? Is there at least a temporary license for people to evaluate the feature ?
As an example I would like to know whether it can do:
* SSL certificate imports
* Content Repository changes
* RFC maintenance
* Job de-scheduling or removal
...to name but a few. Where can one see this information ?
This is a technical product meant for technical people but I can't seem to find any technical details in any of the guides apart from "key features" and how to install it. This doesn't help me at all when deciding whether to commit to the expense of the product.

Have you checked PCA guides for ABAP and Java systems from http://service.sap.com/instlvm?
Reach out to me and I can send you a screen shot of what is covered in the export..
