Hello everybody,
We had installed sap bi ABAP and Java instance (SAP EHP 2 for SAP NetWeaver 7.0) on single box with different SID on windows 2003
(64-bit) + SQL 2005 environment( 64-bit)
I have to move same on another server. please suggest me how to do?
I have gone through the guide " System copy guide SAP system Based on the Application server ABAP + java of SAP Netweaver on windows" in that stepmentioned :
"
On the source system, run the installer to create an export of the Java
central instance[ page 37] by choosing the
following installation service on the Welcomescreen:
<SAP Product> Software Life-Cycle Options System Copy MS SQL Server
Source System Export
<System Variant> Based on <Technical Stack>
■ For a central system, choose Database and Central Instance
Export.
N O T E
On the installer screen SAP SystemDatabase Export, make sure that you
select Use database-specific toolsfor the system copy method.
■ For a distributed system, choose Central Instance Export.
When performing the export, create a MIGRATION EXPORT CD image, which
contains the data
of the exported system, and which you use to install the target system.
2. Detach the database files from the source system database or create abackup and copy the files to
the target system.
3. Attach the database files or restore the backup of the source
database
on the target database server.
I am confusing that some step mention database detach and attach and
first step mention that "create export"
please suggest guide or steps to move server using database specific ie.SQL server procedure.
Thanks
Ganesh
