    Symptom

    For administration tasks such as the execution of transports, upgrades, client


    copies and so on, the corresponding tools are offered in SAP. Therefore, the
    direct usage of R3trans is only supported in the case of exceptions, for
    example, if workarounds for concrete problems are described in Notes such as
    60928.
    In the case of such exceptions, the most popular options of direct R3trans usage
    are described in this note.

    Other Terms

    Reason and Prerequisites

    Solution

    Comprehensive written documentation exists for R3trans in the online


    documentation, path:
    Basis components -> System Administration -> Transport Control -> Using the
    R3trans Program
    We therefore only list a short overview of the most important R3trans functions
    and their handling.

    I. Export:

    1. Using Transaction SE01/STAR (transport and correction system), create a


    transport order in which you enter objects you want to transport. This also
    works if the transport system has not yet been installed in your system.

    a) Go to the operating system level and generate a control file that


    will later serve as input for R3trans and which describes what R3trans
    should do. It has the following contents:
    export
    file = '...' # name of the file into which the export should go
    client = ... # client from which export should be made
    use commandfile '...' # For the first generated transport order
    Explanations:
    You can specify any file name as the export file, even with an absolute
    path. If you do not use this option, the export occurs according to
    trans.dat in the current directory.
    If you do not specify a client, the export takes place from client 0.
    If you do not want to transport any entries from client-specific
    tables, you do not need to use this option.

    2. Now call up R3trans:


    R3trans -w <log file> -u 1 <control file>
    Explanations:

    The -u 1 option (-u = "always" mode) is necessary because the transport


    order you generated in the system does not have the correct status (you
    could not release it in the system).
    It is important that your environment is set correctly, so that R3trans
    exports from the correct data base.
    For ORACLE: you must either set environment variable TWO_TASK (and orasrv
    must run), or you must set environment variables ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID.
    In addition, the data base must, of course, be running.
    II. Import:
    You can, of course, import your generated dataset into the same or a
    different system.

    1. Generate another control file for R3trans:


    import
    file = '...' # same file as with export
    client = ... # target client, if required

    2. Call up R3trans:
    R3trans -w <Log file> <Control file>

    The environment must be correct here, as well.

    The data format is not dependent upon the release. R3trans can also be used for
    data migration (export from the old system with the old R3trans and import into
    the new system with the new R3trans).

    III Copying clients:

    You can set up any mandate from another client, either for all client- dependent
    tables or for a portion thereof.

    1. If you want to create a new client for specific tables, it is best if you
    create a new transport order (see above).

    2. Generate a control file:


    clientcopy
    source client = ...
    target client = ...
    use commandfile '...' # If you have one OR
    # select * # for ALL client-dependent tables
    # select * from xxx # for individual tables
    # select * from yyy # for individual tables

    3. Call R3trans:
    R3trans -w <Log file> -u 1 <control file>

    The environment must, of course, be correct here also.

    The generated table entries can also be deleted again:

    clientremove
    client = ...
    use commandfile '...' # only one of these
    # select * # three lines
    # select * from xyz # (see above)
