Below is a list of technical data and configuration that may be cleaned up using end-to-end System Refreshâ„¢. Note that the selected options are saved on initial use and can be reused on

subsequent execution of the refresh.

  1. Cleanup of CCMS Configuration (RZ20, RZ21)

  2. Cleanup of CCMS History (CCMSHISTORY)

  3. Cleanup of DBA Cockpit Configuration (DBACOCKPIT)

  4. Cleanup of Additional DBA Cockpit Config. for Oracle

  5. Cleanup of Spool Configuration (SPAD)

  6. Cleanup of System Profiles (RZ10)

  7. Cleanup of RFC Inbound Queue Configuration (SMQ2)

  8. Cleanup of RFC Outbound Queue Configuration (SM58, SMQ1)

  9. Cleanup of Background RFC (SBGRFCMON)

10. Cleanup of SAP Connect Data (SCOT)

11. Cleanup of SLD Access Data Configuration (SLDAPICUST)

3. Can customer-specified config tables be added to the list for export/import?

Yes. (Precaution: Customer must be aware and accept full responsibility for cleaning table contents in the refreshed system.)

4. Can End-to-end System Refresh™ support my system applications deployed in Linux/Unix?

Yes.

5. Can End-to-end System Refresh™ support my system applications deployed in Windows?

Yes.

6. Can End-to-end System Refresh™ support my system applications deployed in the cloud?

Yes. Regardless of where your environment resides, you can use End-to-end System Refresh™ to simplify your system refresh process if your systems are enrolled in IT-Conductor™.

7. What are the most common factors affecting the application performance?

The automated process executed using End-to-end System Refresh™ remains consistent without miss regardless of system complexity, provided instructions are followed properly. However, system complexity affects the runtime of the export/import/cleanup together with the degree of parallelism and the number of components you selected for the export/cleanup/import process. 

8. How long does it take to perform the export/import/cleanup process using End-to-end System Refresh™?

The entire process may take from a few minutes up to several hours depending on the same factors mentioned in the previous question. On average, it would take 4 hours to complete the system refresh process end-to-end.
