E2E System Refresh post-processing tasks
After the end-to-end system refresh process is completed. There are some remaining tasks that needs to be executed as well.
BDLS:
The next step after system refresh is to convert logical system (LOGSYS) names (BDLS). This conversion usually takes long time for large size database tables. As part of IT-Conductor automation, we have include this step to be executed post system refresh.
The first step is to go to Process Definition in our Tenant:
We click on BDLS to review the workflow prior the execution
Once the process is started, program RBDLSMAP is executed as a background job:
We can check the execution log to review when the job finished.
We can check in SAP for job log entries:
The status of the job will change to finished.
Suspend Jobs (BTCTRNS1)
The next step before performing the client copy is to suspend jobs, an activity is created in IT-Conductor as process definition as shown below:
Use the program name as BTCTRNS1 without any variant.
Client Copy
Once all jobs are suspended, the next step is to perform the client copy.
We will perform client copy from 000 to 250.
In order to do that, we need to add credentials for client 200 in IT-Conductor and perform the task.
We have added DDIC-200 credentials in account section.
The standard program for client copy is STC_TM_PROCESSOR
The standard variant for client copy is &0000000000001
Release Jobs (BTCTRNS2)
After the system copy is performed we need to release jobs which were suspended earlier.
We create the activity to run program BTCTRNS2 in our process definition:
Once all steps are completed, they will change color to green:
