Help in BW Archiving

[Former Member]

We are in the process of moving data from our present BW system.

Can anyone suggest whether to use a nearline storage or an offline storage system or both.

If we archive data using ADK in BI, how good will be the retrieval of archived data.

i.e. using transaction SARI in BI only displays data, but no reporting can be done on it.

Please Help.

hi,

better you can put that data in to off line storage like optical devices.

when ever you need that data's place the data in to that cube and do

reporting on it. by using T-Code SARA--archive administration.

hope this help you. if helpful provide points

Hi Hari,

So if i have to do reporting on the archived data, then I will have to reload that data right.

Also the user will have to ask which data has to be reloaded. eg. 193-001 archived session would be containing that required data. Will it be the duty of the archive administrator to fetch that data for the user, or does ADK has some functionality to do that automatically.

Please reply, Points will surely be given.
