RE: How to restore / move sap database to a new server

[Heinrich, Tilo]

Hello Sumedha,

 

to repeat my answer from last week:

 

"any error messages in knldiag or knldiag.err?"

 

>While trying to restore the instance I edit the path of data and logfiles.

 

What do you mean by that?

 

Best Regards,

Did all of the below but get the same message.
While trying to restore the instance I edit the path of data and logfiles.
Could that be causing a problem?

Thanks..

Hi,

First off, make sure you are doing 7.3 to 7.3.  Second, when you do a
restore you should start from no database.  Basically you use the steps you
first used to create the database but substitute a few steps.

Did the database by the same name already exist before you started the
restore?  Drop it first.

I suggest searching the archives for further details.

I have a 7.3 database and I did a complete backup for migration as suggested
by you.
Take backup to new server, trying to restore and get following error message


- 24994 runtime environment error [db_cold -f]; -2; kernel start failed

Please advise.

Thanks..
