Shifting data from Old R/3 server to Freshly installed server

[Former Member]

Hi All

I have freshly installed 4.6 C server on Windows 2000 and database is Oracle.

Now i want to shift the data from existing 4.6C server to this new server.

Is there any other procedure rather than backup/restore bec we are not going for the tape backup .

I am copying the datafiles manually.

Is there any other procedure for that.

Thanks

check the following doc:

instead of backup/restore, just shutdown DB in source system and copy datafile,controlfiles and all origlog/mirrlog to new server.

Yes - you can copy the files manually.

check the homegeneous system copy guides at

http://service.sap.com/systemcopy

for the procedure.
