Summary :
SAP Note elucidates requirements and procedures associated with system copies, whether homogeneous or heterogeneous. For homogeneous copies, it addresses maintaining the same database and OS, leveraging database-dependent methods for copies within identical platforms. Heterogeneous copies involve migrating an R/3 system to a different platform, with changes in the OS, database, or both, requiring a precise migration process including data export/import and system reinstallation. Essential migration tools are specified, with an emphasis on version and kernel release consistency. Additionally, file types used in the migration process, such as DDL templates and log files, serve specific roles like defining database syntax and logging event details relevant to migration tasks. The feasibility of direct OS/DB changes, necessity of professional oversight, access to appropriate migration tools, and the imperative of initial test runs are thoroughly advised.
