MAXDB System Copy Import Error

[jorge_velasquez]

Hi Experts,

I am doing an import with sapinst (SPM) and is asking for DB size  1TB  but source system has 150GB

What can be happening?

Hi,

Issue is solved.

I modified DBSIZE.XML file with 150GB instead wrong 600GB sapinst calculated.

After that sapinst (SPM) duplicated size to 250GB so I continue until it finished successfully.

Regards.

Hi Jorge,

Which 'R3szchk' patch did you use for the export? I strongly recommend you to use the latest one. I have seen cases where this issue was because 'R3szchk' was calculating the database size wrongly at the export already.

You can download the latest one from

http://service.sap.com/swdc -> Support Packages and Patches -> Browse our Download Catalog

Additional Components -> SAP Kernel ...

Hi,

R3szchk information
--------------------

kernel release                720

kernel make variant           720_REL

DBMS client library           MAXDB_774_b09

DBSL shared library version   720.00

compiled on                   Linux GNU SLES-9 x86_64 cc4.1.2 use-pr100217 for linuxx86_64

compiled for                  64 BIT

compilation mode              UNICODE

compile time                  May  4 2010 20:03:21

update level                  0

patch number                  0

source id                     0.046

I did not updated, but the export is already on target server and we have no time.

If I modify DBSIZE.XML to 250GB instead 600GB could work?

Do sapinst (SPM) works with jobs in import ABAP phase on MaxDB as Oracle?

Hi Jorge,

That's a very old patch. I would give a try increasing it in DBSIZE.XML. But I am afraid that the issue is coming from this extremely old R3szchk.
