This argument "-loadprocedure fast" is to provided in the screen of SAPINST when it asks for R3load load arguments during the import .
In the installation directory during the installation/import you get a migration monitor import properties file named import_monitor_cmd.properties. You can manually edit this file or verify as well the section loadArgs in the file before the ABAP Load phase.If you pass the argument in SAPINST input screen it would be populated in this file.
Typically the file would look like this
********************************************************************************************

Dear Ratnajit
I can't find the file import_monitor_cmd.properties.
For your information, we proceed a conversion unicode with system copy of 4.72 system (R/3 enterprise , kernel 6.40 )
This file import_monitor_cmd.properties is migration monitor properties file. In release 640 , the sapinst does not invoke migration monitor by default for export/import (which is default as of NW 700 release) and hence this file will not be available.
You will need to invoke migration monitor manually (select in the dialog screen of sapinst) during the import to get this file available in the migration monitor directory where you can go ahead and edit the file and add the load arguments.
You download the MIGMON.SAR file from the SAP service marketplace . Uncar it . You will get a pdf file which has the details of the usage of the tool.
You will get some good information in the link below

I have re-rexecute sapinst with Migration Monitor Option to create database instance with system copy.
I have change options in file import_monitor_cmd.properties
But when I execute import_monitor.sh, nothing happens. I get
"

I have checked the import_monitor.log without error :

Please login as <sid>adm and set JAVA_HOME (which I believe you have done)
Then start import_monitor.sh
Else you will face issues with the environment as <sid>adm is the user which should run the import monitor.

Ratnajit
I start the import_monitor.sh with user <sidadm> but i have the same problem. nothing happend
In the import_monitor_cmd.properties ,
change the following :
importDirs=/sauv/EXPORT/ABAP
exchangeDir=
The above should be blank if you are not doing export and import parallely.
Regards
Ratnajit
the same problem . nothing happend
I would like to inform you that sapinst start with any problem.
This should be (you were correct the first time ..its 640 not 700)
importDirs=/sauv/EXPORT/
Please check if R3load processes are running after you start the import_monitor.sh
also check if migmon process is running (ps -ef |grep migmon)
Normally it takes sometime to get started . So just wait for sometime.
Is there any error import_monitor.log at the end . If no , then its running fine.
Regards
Ratnajit
