iv. Con gure the domain controller in the Transport Management System (TMS) by using transaction STMS.
Note
If you did not change the SAP system ID during the system copy, all open transport, repair, and customizing
requests that have not been released in the source system will not be released automatically.
19. Make data archived in the source system (data that does not reside in the database but was moved to a different
storage location using SAP Archive Management) accessible in the target system. Adapt the le residence information
in the target system. For more information, see and the SAP Online Documentation at Solution Life Cycle
Management Data Archiving .
21. Check the logical system names. If you need to change logical system names in the system that results from the system
rename, change the logical system names at this time, as described in SAP Notes 103228 and 544509 . Follow your
corporate naming strategy for logical systems when making this change.
To identify potential follow-up activities regarding logical system names, answer to the following question:

Context
After the installation of any new SAP ABAP system running on SAP HANA, you have to enable the SAP EarlyWatch Alert (EWA)
and send corresponding data to SAP – either by using SAP Solution Manager for SAP EarlyWatch Alert or by performing the
automated con guration described below.
The SAP EarlyWatch Alert identi es potential problems early, avoids bottlenecks, and monitors the performance of your ABAP
and Java systems and your most important business processes regularly, automatically, and effectively. For more information,
see http://support.sap.com/ewa .
If you have not enabled SAP EarlyWatch Alert in your SAP Solution Manager (for more information, see SAP Note 1257308 ),
we provide an automated procedure using our automation framework ABAP Task Manager, which is already part of the ABAP
system. The automation task list “Early Watch Alert to SAP Con guration” sets up a periodical EWA data collection and
transfers this data to SAP in Service Data Control Center (SDCCN), when executed by the ABAP Task Manager.
2. SDCC_OSS Connection
Creates an RFC SDCC_OSS by copying RFC SAPOSS and adds this RFC to the SDCCN RFC list if it does not yet exist. This
RFC is used in SDCCN to communicate with the SAP backend.
3. SDCCN Activation
Activates the SDCCN in the system if not yet activated. An hourly job /BDL/TASK_PROCESSOR is scheduled after the
activation.
Gets the newest Service De nitions from SAP. The Service De nitions de ne the data to be collected for the EWA
session.
This is custom documentation. For more information, please visit the SAP Help Portal 10

Context
SAP has implemented a license mechanism for switchover solutions and clustered environments. Your customer key is
calculated on the basis of local information on the message server host. This is the host machine where the ABAP central
services instance (ASCS instance) runs.
To be able to perform a switchover, the temporary license that is installed automatically with the ASCS instance is not
sufficient. You rst need to install a permanent license, which is determined by the hardware environment of the message
server. Since SAP's high-availability (HA) solution stipulates two or more cluster nodes (host machines) where the message
server is enabled to run, you have to order as many license keys as you have cluster nodes.
When we receive con rmation from your vendor that you are implementing a switchover environment, we provide the required
license keys for your system, one key for each machine.
Procedure
1. To nd the hardware ID of the primary host, log on to any application server instance of the SAP system and call
transaction SLICENSE.
2. Perform a switchover of the ABAP central services instance (ASCS) to another node in the cluster and repeat the
previous step.
3. To obtain the two license keys, enter the hardware IDs for each cluster node, where message server is enabled to run:
http://support.sap.com/licensekey
4. To import the les containing the two licenses, log on to any application server instance of the SAP system and call
transaction SLICENSE.
5. Perform a switchover of the ABAP central services instance (ASCS) to another node in the cluster and repeat the
previous step.
Results
The license is no longer a problem during switchover. This means you do not need to call saplicense in your switchover
scripts.

Prerequisites
If you have several SAP systems, it depends on your security requirements whether you want them to share a transport
directory or whether you use separate directories. For more information, see the SAP Online Documentation at:
Solution Life Cycle Management Software Logistics Change and Transport System Change and Transport System –
Overview Basics of the Change and Transport System Transport Management System – Concept
Using a shared system transport directory /usr/sap/trans makes it easier to maintain your SAP system and instance
con guration data. We recommend that you link /usr/sap/trans to the IFS directory /sapmnt/trans on the primary
application server instance host of an SAP system.
If the primary application server instance is on a different host, the directory should be linked using QFileSvr.400.
You must make sure the /QFileSvr.400/<SAPTRANSHOST> directory is always available after an initial program load (IPL).
By default, the installation creates the directory /usr/sap/trans if it does not exist. Otherwise, installer reuses
/usr/sap/trans. When the transport directory is newly created by the installer it is a normal directory. You should move this
directory to /sapmnt after you successfully nished the installation and you should create a link /usr/sap/trans pointing to
/sapmnt/trans.
Procedure
To move the newly created directory /usr/sap/trans to /sapmnt and to create a link /usr/sap/trans to
/sapmnt/trans, proceed as follows:
1. Log on to the IBM i host as a user with administration rights similar to QSECOFR.
If you want the directory /usr/sap/trans to point to any other host, you have to change it manually using the following
command: CHGR3SHLOC
1. Log on to the IBM i host as a user with administrator rights similar to QSECOFR.
CHGR3SHLOC NEWHOST(<SAPTRANSHOST>)
3. Since the command CHGR3SHLOC creates a link using QFileSvr.400 to point to the SAPTRANSHOST, you must make
sure the /QFileSvr.400/<SAPTRANSHOST> directory is always available after an initial program load (IPL).
4. To create the missing users on the remote host, see SAP Note 1123501 .
Note
SAP_BASIS_SETUP_INITIAL_CONFIG only covers the con guration of TMS as single system.

The tables below at the end of this section list the following users:
During the installation, the installer by default assigned the master password to all users created during the installation unless
you speci ed other passwords.
Recommendation
In all cases, the user ID and password are encoded only when transported across the network. Therefore, we recommend
using encryption at the network layer, either by using the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol for HTTP connections, or
Secure Network Communications (SNC) for the SAP protocols dialog and RFC.
Caution
Make sure that you perform this procedure before the newly installed SAP system goes into production.
For the users listed below, take the precautions described in the relevant SAP security guide.
You can nd the security guide in the Security section of the product page for your SAP product at https://help.sap.com/
To change passwords at the operating system level, use the command CHGPWD or CHGUSRPRF.
Recommendation
For security reasons, we recommend that you remove the group SAPINST from the operating system users after you have
completed the installation of your SAP system.
You do not have to do this if you speci ed this “cleanup” already during the De ne Parameters phase on the Cleanup
Operating System Users screen. Then the removal had already been done automatically when the processing of the installer
had completed. For more information, see Operating System Users in SAP System Parameters.

<SAPSID>ADM –
Caution
In three-tier systems, these users must have the same password on all IBM i systems.
Operating system user sapadm SAP Host Agent administrator is the user for central
monitoring services.
Note
Client 066 is no longer available in newly installed SAP systems based on SAP NetWeaver 7.5 or higher. For more
information, see SAP Note 1749142 .
Note
Client 001 is no longer available in newly installed SAP systems based on SAP S/4HANA and SAP BW/4HANA.
This is custom documentation. For more information, please visit the SAP Help Portal 21
1/31/2022
Context
The installer creates ABAP client 000 during the installation.
Procedure
1. Maintain the new client with transaction SCC4.
3. Log on to the new client with kernel user SAP* and password PASS.
6. Create the required users. These users must have at least the authorizations required for user administration and
system administration. Create a user SAP* with all required authorizations for this user. If you want to have other users
for system administration, you can also create user SAP* without authorizations.
a. Reset login/no_automatic_user_sapstar to 1.
Next Steps

Procedure
After you have copied the database, the target system has the same database connections - for example, for the DBA Cockpit -
as the source system; this might cause problems. Therefore, you must check the database connections in transaction DBCO
and adjust them if required.
Procedure
After you have copied the database, the target system has the same RFC connections as the source system; this may cause
problems. Therefore, you must check the RFC connections in transaction SM59 and adjust them if required.
Procedure
After you copy the database, the target system has the same spool con guration as the source system. Therefore, you must
check the spool con guration in transaction SPAD and adjust it if required.
Procedure
If the System ID of the ABAP system has changed, use transaction BDLS to change the logical system name.
Procedure
If you copied a BW system, you must adjust the SAP HANA calculation to the new system names views after the migration. This
is done when calling the report RS_BW_POST_MIGRATION with all options.

Back up the SAP HANA database as described in section SAP HANA Database Backup and Recovery of the SAP HANA
Administration Guide , which you can nd here:
https://help.sap.com/viewer/p/SAP_HANA_PLATFORM Administration
Alternatively, as of SAP HANA 2.0, you can use the SAP HANA cockpit to do so. For more information, see section Backup and
Recovery of the documentation SAP HANA Administration with SAP HANA Cockpit , which you can nd here:
https://help.sap.com/viewer/product/SAP_HANA_COCKPIT/ Administration
Note
Make sure that you perform a “Complete Data Backup”.
In the rst case, you have made a backup of the individual key because you need this value in case of failure to recover the data.
No matter what you chose during installation, you can change the encryption key at any time using the respective maintenance
tool.
Recommendation
SAP recommends using an individual encryption key.
For the secure storage in the le system, the key change is described in the SAP Online Documentation at:
Security System Security System Security for SAP NetWeaver AS ABAP Only Secure Storage in the File System (AS
ABAP)
