This won't work, if you do not have much knowledge of SAP DB. Please use the DBMGUI to create a backup of the source database and then do an "Instance -> Install" on the target server which creates the new instance (please choose restore instance in the database wizard step 7 of 8 in your case) and after this you should restore the database in ADMIN mode. Be sure that the database is not started to ONLINE until you finished the restore. This is the standard procedure. I would have liked to give you a link with a good pictured guide (a picture says more than thousand words) of the different steps of the database wizard process but there isn't one on www.sapdb.org. Therefore, you have to check the http://www.sapdb.org/7.4/pdf/dbmgui_74eng.pdf or http://www.sapdb.org/htmhelp/30/5ada35596211d4aa83006094b92fad/content.htm But be carefull. The html docu you can find here on www.sapdb.org is sometimes already for the new DBMGUI 7.4 SE (SE for second edition) and there are some changes in the DBMGUI and especially in the wizards. If you find the "Instance -> Install" on the description page you are with the standard DBMGUI 7.4. Good luck!
