Client Import

This document provides steps for exporting a client from a source system and importing it into a target system using client import/export instead of remote client copy. The process involves: 1. Creating an entry for the new target client in the target system and exporting the client data from the source system using transaction SCC8. 2. This export creates up to three transport requests containing the cross-client, client-dependent, and some additional client-dependent data. 3. Importing the transport requests on the target client in a specified sequence using transaction STMS_IMPORT, then executing SCC7 for post-import actions.

Client Import/Export

For large database, it is recommended to use client import/export instead of remote client
copy.
Scenario:-
Source Instance & client := PKT-300
Target Instance & client := DKM-202
This technique always starts with client export step.

Note: - You must have enough space in the /usr/sap/trans_SID file system to perform the
client export.

How to export client?;

Step 1) Log on to the target system(DKM). Create an entry for your new target client
using SCC4. Log on to the source system/source client(PKT).

Step 2)Before you import a Client you need to export.Export is nothing but transferring
data files and co-files from source system's database to target system's import buffer.Execute
T-code SCC8.
 

 Step 3) 

 Select profile
 Choose target system.

Step 4) Schedule the export in background


 
Step 5) Once the job is executed  data files and co-files of profiles from PKT system's
database are transferred to DKM system's import buffer.Once we will import request in
DKM only then it will be reflected in a database of DKM system.

Depending on the chosen export profile there can be up to 3 transport requests created:

 Request PKTKO00151 will hold the cross-client data,


 Request  PKTKT00151 will hold the client dependent data,
 Request  PKTKX00151 will also hold some client dependent data.

How to import the client? 

Step 1) Log on to the newly created target client(DKM-202) using SAP* and password pass.

Step 2) Start the STMS_IMPORT transaction


 

As shown below, import queue will open


 
Step 2) Select the transport requests generated by client export .Import theses transport
requests on the target client.

The transport requests should be imported in the following sequence:

1. Request PKTKO00151
2. Request  PKTKT00151
3. Request  PKTKX00151

The system automatically detects these are client export transport requests and automatically
performs the import of the 3 requests.
The import logs can be seen in STMS_IMPORT.
 

Step 3) Post import phase:- 


Once the import is done, execute SCC7  to perform the post client import actions,
Schedule the post import job in background.
 

Step 4) Import log will be available in SCC3. The Client is successfully imported.
