Source system restore - Source system does not exist

Former Member — Sun, 04 Feb 2024 05:05:29 GMT

Hello friends,

We have a problem. Now we have a new test system QA2. From BW system source system connection was configured for older test source system QA1.

We needed to route this source system to new system. I tried with changing RFC of QA1 to QA2 details.

Now, when i check RSA1 source system Check for QA1, i get this error :

Port 'A000000103 ' of type 'ALE ' does not exist

No destination exists to source system QA1

I can see this source system in RSA1 in BW. However, in WE21 port is not available now.

Please suggest.

I do not have to lose transfer rules/PSA tables..etc.

thanks

I get this when i try to restor connection :

Source system does not exist

Message no. RSAR175

Diagnosis

You have specified that you want to restore source system QA2. This source system is not known in BI.

System Response

The source system is not restored.

Procedure

Recreate the source system.

If the source system should be known to BI, the name of source system QA2 may be incorrect. Rename the source system and try the function again.

Hi,

You have to create new source system for this. Its not possible to change source system by just changing RFC and restoring.

Thanks

Hello Sunny,

Dont be habe any option like logical name conversion or something like that.. what if i change QA2 to QA1 in RSBASIDOC as i have entry in it.

In this case what should be done for customizing done for older system..like transfer rules/PSA tables.

thanks

You cannot change source system name in RSA1 by running BDLS. This is to change logical name of the client.

Thanks

Hi,

You have to run the BDLS conversion first and then setup the ports in we20 & 21. Also you have to update the port details & destinations in your other source systems.

Hi Vamshi,

I assigned a new port to QA1 partner profile and now i am only getting error :

No destination exists to source system QA1

How should i fix this..

thanks

Hi,

If you take this approach, you might get problems in Infocube settings.

Thanks

Hi Sunny,

Can you please tell me any standard method how we can transfer all development what was done for QA1 can be tranafered to QA2..

thanks

You can have a look on SAP note 140276.

Answering your original question:

No destination exists to source system QA1

After QA2 Build, have you performed RSA1~~> Source Systems~~-> Right Click on R3 Source System and hit RESTORE CONNECTION, provide the ALEREMOTE Source System useid and password.

Thanks
