Hi Etienne, if you have a backup (complete data) of your database, you can install sap-db on a new server and generate a new database instance from the backup of your old database. normally this works perfect.

I have inherited the support of a server which still runs SAPDB 7.2.2 and is being used as a SAP document server. I currently have the following issues and would like any advice or help that anyone of you can provide. Server Background: The server is running NT4 Service pack 6a. It is running SAPDB 7.2.2. It is now running Trend Serverprotect. Hardware consists of an HP LC2000 single CPU 512 MB memory Disks consist of hardware raided: 18GB Raid 1 system disk 9GB Raid 1 Log file disk 9GB Raid 1 Log file disk 140GB Raid 5 Data disk The database is currently 62GB big of which 44 GB is in use. Problem Background: The server was infected with a virus. Files were damaged. (over 20 000 files) Some of these were database binaries etc. Since I did not have the install software or a database export, I fixed the NT4 as far as possible. The SAPDB is still running but is crashing regularly due to some file being missing etc. The database appears intact. The users can do all their work while the system is up. Questions: Is it possible to move the database to another server (Once I can install a new 7.2.2) Exports do not work. Any suggestions/documentation as to moving the data to a new database server? Once this is done I can upgrade and move on. ANY help will be appreciated.
