1. Introduction
SAP System Cloning − also known as Homogeneous System Copy (HSC) creates a copy of an SAP R/3 system where the operating system and the database version are the same on the target system.
2. Customer Requirements
In an SAP R/3 environment, a system copy is performed using either SAP R/3 Export/Import tools or using database-specific tools. The SAP R/3 Export/Import procedure uses a standard SAP-supplied transaction to export the data from the source database to a flat file and then to import the data into the target database. Note: This process is not recommended for large production SAP environments.
3. Introduction to the IBM TotalStorage DS6000 series
