SAP XI/PI Backup restore

[Former Member]

Environment: HP -UX Oracle 11g

I performed a system restore on PI dual stack system using backup restore method

I created the control file from source system DB and application are up and running

ABAP stack is up and running and I am not able to bring the JAVA Stack up

I am attaching the log files which I think contain the error description

-----------------------------

com.sap.engine.frame.core.configuration.NameNotFoundException: A configuration with the path "cluster_config/system/instances/current_instance/bin" and cid "unknown" do

[Bootstrap]> Problem occurred while performing synchronization. For more details see the logs above.

I have looked at the SAP Note: 1924336:Java node 'Instance_bootstrap' terminated with exit code 508

even though it describes my error but the solution provided cannot be done as the nodes that appear in the configtool are the production nodes and I do not know how to change the production nodes to the single quality node

Help is appreciated-

How did you restore the JAVA instance??

Java instances store lots of configurations on the file system. So, it's better to export and import the java part using sapinst/swpm.

We usually export-import the java part once ABAP restore is completed.

Hi,

The exit code 508 inidicates an issue during access version information in file system/database, possible inconsistent content.

Could you please explain exact the steps executed and why is the solution of mentioned SAP Note 1924336 not possible in more details?

You can also check the Bootstrap Stops Due to Database Problems for more information.

Dear Biborka,

As per the note I have added another node using configuration editor for offlinecfgeditor but that did not solve the issue.

We had originally done the backup restore for the dual stack PI system where a copy of the prod was made on a pi quality box

ABAP stack is up and running but the java stack is giving this error and not coming up

As per the note the ID that should be coming under the cluster_config -> system -> instances is not the QA id but the PROD id which should not be the case

You should do an export and import using the sapinst for the Java stack.

Dear Reagan,

Infra team did only the Backup Restore of the Prod system and no Export Import of Prod using the sapinst.

Should I do the export import as it sounds by your and Pavan's reply that it might be required

We are doing Restore for Dual stack first time done the backup restore for ABAP stack a couple of times for ECC Quality refresh.

Should this be the option that I should select in sapinst for JAVA Export and JAVA Import:

------------------

JAVA Export

------------------

-----------------

JAVA Import

-----------------

You need to first do an export of the source system (PRD Java stack) using sapinst and move the export dump to the target system. Start the sapinst and import the dump.

Dear Reagan,

Yes the screen shots got jumbled up I mean to put the export first and then import screen shot

Out of curiousity what to do in case the Prod goes down and we do a back up restore

where do we get the export of the java stack then
