Hi Naveed,

             You can backup using DB13 or brtools from OS level.Prepare destination system with same version of sap .

After successfully complied backup copy log file & .afd file from oracle\sid\sapbackup folder to Destination systems's oracle\sid\sapbackup.

Now  restore backup using below command on OS level

brrestore –b <XXX>.afd -m full

It take time to restore depend upon database size.

After successfully completed restoration create OPS$ as per SAP NOTE 400241

Hi Naveed,

Which database and OS platform you are running SAP. As the thread is created under Oracle, assumption is Oracle database.

Secondly how do you want to take backup or test restore. ? Using SAP delivered tools or 3rd party backup tools ?
