Hello all NWCE experts, our NWCE 7.2 is on Win and running Oracle 11.2. And we have the application data on another database server. So we have two databases for this system. We want to move the current NWCE DB to another server. This DB is very small in size mainly for NWCE data only. So my question is since it is a purely Java system, is that all we need to do is to use the configtool to change the where the database is located and that's it. And does anyone know the places where we need to change.
Or better do a db backup and reinstall NWCE, choose the new DB location from start and restall the database after that, would be the cleaniness way.
Thanks,
Kev
Just want to clarify that the NWCE will stay in the same server, and we only want to change the NWCE DB to another server. Is it something easy to do with config tool?

Hi Bala, thanks for the information. Yes i thought that would be the case. But the Central instance is going to be stay, we only want to point the NWCE DB to another server. Would the system copy (for DB and Central instance) option copy both NWCE and DB to another server? Or we still can choose only the DB from SAPInst.
Thanks,
Kev
Section 5 of this CE 7.1 document should give you the required details. Not sure if 7.2 specific document is available in SAP service market place.
I actually question if system copy is for our case. For our case, it is only the DB host name changes, it is not the central instance host name.
When performing a System copy all software units in the source system are copied to the target system. This means that none of the software units in the target system can be excluded from the system copy, nor can you select software units.
So if we use system copy, the whole system will be duplicated to another server for our case, right.
I think we just need to use config tool to point to the new DB server name for our case.
Hello Bala, how about we also need to rename the server? For our development system, the name was not followed with our standard. Now we want to rename it. I know Java side it imbedded the hostname everywhere. So is it the best approach is to just back up the database, export the Java schema and then just perform a fresh install again. And the restore the database and Java schema. Or we can ignore the Java schema part since it is a refresh install anyway.
Thanks,
Kev
