Client import Export

[former_member327748]

Hi Experts

I have a requirement. We have a Preproduction system with 3 clients (400/401/402) and there is now request to refresh one of the client (400)in preproduction system from production client and rest of the clients(401/402) in preproduction system should remain unchanged.

Due to large database we want to do restore the preproduction system from the backup which means while doing the restore from backup client 401 and 402 will be wiped out.

We are thinking about following solution to avoid this problem.

Step 1 :Do a client export (401/402) before the restore from backup.

Step 2 :Do a restore from the backup of pre production system which should copy the production client 400 to preproduction client 400

Step 3: Create client 401 and 402 after the restore in pre-production client.

Step 4: Do a client import from the step 1 (client 401 adn 402)

My question is if we perform the above steps while doing the client import after the restore will this bring back the old cross client ABAP dictionary objects and cross client customizing from the export before the restore?

Grateful any feedback on this

Pravin,

Pls do a  remote client copy from 400 from Prod 400...

401 or 402 will not be affected.

Kind Reagrds,
