Administration Client Copy Within Same Instance
Administration Client Copy Within Same Instance
As Basis administrator, performing local client copy would recommended to be execute by the
user with "SAP_ALL" authorization. The example below would be assuming the administrator
with the access of the ORACLE database as well.
1) Lock all the users by using TCODE: SM04 (By single user) / SU10 (Mass users) or AL08
2) Suspended all background process with TCODE: SE38, enter "BTCTRNS1" and click the
"execute button"
3) Ensure hard disk space is sufficient Ex: using TCODE: DB02
1) Ensure the new client to be create is not in the system either using TCODE: SCC4 or from
Oracle database.
- Execute: sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
- Enter: select mandt, count(*) from sapsr3.usr04 group by mandt; to show all client in the
instance
2) Enter: select mandt, count(*) from sapsr3.usr04 group by mandt having mandt=702; ("No row
selected" which mean is clear to proceed the client copy)
3) Create the client in the target instance, execute TCODE: SCC4 to create a new client in the list
4) New client created and ready to perform client copy
5) The new client will not be able to be access showing "name or password is incorrect"
6) Login with "sap*" on the target client to begin the client copy
7) Execute TCODE: SCCL and select all the relevant details. Ex: profile to be create.
8) When prompt for the number of process, select the default or add more.
9) Select "Schedule in Background Job" button instead "Start Immediately" which require the
GUI to be sign-on when processing.
10) Select the "Immediately" option and click "Schedule Job" button
13) Execute TCODE: SCC3 to monitor the client copy progress (this can be monitor from others
clients in the same instance as well)
14) Sample details of the progress on the client copy
19) With the SQL command, clearly shown users where created for the new client
20) The "success" status
21) Login the new client with existing user ID.
