Copy Client from Another SystemLocate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

  • The same product is installed, with the same release, in both systems.

  • All components in these systems, including add-ons, have the same development status.

    Note

    If you experience problems copying from another system, see the SAP note 557132.

Procedure


  1. Choose Start of the navigation path Administration Next navigation step System Administration Next navigation step Administration Next navigation step Client Admin. Next navigation step Client Copy Next navigation step Remote Copy End of the navigation path.

  2. Select a copy profile.

  3. Specify the RFC destination.

  4. Make an RFC system comparison, if necessary.

  5. Setup the parallel process parameters.

  6. Start the copy.

    Note

    The client copier can copy a client into another system. The systems can be on different platforms. You can change the client number.

    Note

    When you copy a client from one system to another, the data is transferred directly via the RFC interface - there is no intermediate storage on hard disk.

    Note

    Codepage conversions are performed automatically, as far as technically possible.

    Caution

    Do not use the same client as the source for several copies or client transports at the same time.
