Sybase Adapter for SAP R/3 Benutzerhandbuch

Adapter for SAP R/3

Existing database refers to the database you are currently using.

Target database refers to the database you will use with Adapter for SAP R/3 
version 3.9.

Before migrating formats and rules from an existing database to your target 
database, verify the following:

•

Existing database contains valid rules and formats.

•

Integration Server is installed.

•

Target database and temporary database are instantiated, contain no data, 
and allows sufficient space for rules and formats.

•

Adapter for SAP R/3 version 3.9 is installed.

When upgrading formats and rules to a target database, you 

must have three separate database instances: your existing database, a 
temporary database, and your target database. Do not attempt to rebuild 
your current database after exporting all the data.

Upgrading from Adapter for SAP R/3 version 3.0.3 to version 3.9 consists of 
the following steps:

•

Transfer user-specific configuration information from the version 3.0.3 
configuration files to version 3.9 configuration files.

You can do this manually using the sample configuration files in the SAP-
3_9/CFG folder or using the GUI. See “Changes to Configuration Keys” 
on page 3 for a table of changes to configuration keys between versions.

•

Reload BAPI formats using Adapter for SAP R/3 version 3.9. You must 
crate new rules for these formats.

•

Migrate IDoc formats using the procedure described in “Converting IDoc 
Formats” on page 5.
