1. The document describes how to perform a client copy in SAP using client export and import procedures. It provides step-by-step instructions for exporting client data from a source system and importing it into a target system. 2. The export process creates transport requests that can be imported into the target system after creating a new client. The import process monitors log files to check for errors or progress. 3. Performing a client copy during off-peak hours is recommended since it utilizes significant server resources. The time required depends on hardware specifications and SAP configuration.

How to do client copy using client export and import?

By Henry
Today I am going to view about Client Copy using Client Export and Client Import procedure.
Its easy and safe way than direct client copy.
Client Export Steps:
1. Run SCC8
2. Select Profile for desired copy type (Usually All SAP_ALL or user master only SAP_USER.
You will need direction from the requester as to the correct selection here. Use Profile -> Display
Profile to display profile details.)
3. Select target System (or group)
4. De- Select Test Run (If selected)
5. Run Export
- Up to 3 requests are created, depending on the data selected and available:
1. SIDKO00353" for transporting client-independent data, if you have selected this
2. SIDKT00353" for transporting client-specific data
3. SIDKX00353" for transporting client-specific texts, provided texts are available in this client
6.Monitor TP logs for errors and export files for growth
Client Import Steps:
1. Create client (scc4)
2. Login to client (sap* pass)
3. Manually add O transport then X then T to TMS buffer
4. Highlight #1 and use Request -> Import to launch import tool
5. Monitor I file in OS /usr/sap/trans/tmp dir for progress info
6. After Import is complete perform post processing steps from client tool (SCC7)
So, if you have 3 transport requests and the data has been exported successfully then go for an
import in quality system.
This would help you to refresh QA server with PRD server data and settings.

Note:
About client copy from PRD to QAS through export-import, is it possible to do it in office hour
(while all users are still active) and do I have to lock them first? Right now I have 164 GBs of
data in the database, how long does it take. I use SUSE Ent v10 as the OS, what command
should I use to increase the FS just in case the space is not enough.
Answer:
You need un-peak hour to do client copy since this process would take most of your server
resource. I didnt know how long it going to take time since it depend on your server hardware
specification and your SAP config.
If you are using LVM and using ext3 or reiserfs than this would be simple step.
Steps when using reiserfs :
#lvextend -L +size /dev/volume_group/logical_volume
#resize_reiserfs -L +size /dev/volume_group/logical_volume
Steps when using ext2/ext3 :
#lvextend -L +size /dev/volume_group/logical_volume
#resize2fs /dev/volume_group/logical_volume
Just make sure you would contact your OS and hardware vendor before resizing of fs.
