Summary :
This SAP Note provides guidance on importing backups from one SAP DB or MaxDB database instance to another of the same version, specifically addressing system copies and homogeneous system copies. Key prerequisites include compatibility between source and target system versions, with specific steps outlined for versions below 7.5. Instance installation or recovery with initialization is required due to the inadequacy of a normal recovery. The note also references using Database Manager GUI for database administration, with newer versions recommending Database Studio. Guidelines include restoring data after initializing a database instance, with details for various scenarios and DBMGUI versions provided.
