As part of Data center migration, SAP ECC, BW, CRM etc need to be migrated to new infrastructure present in new data center migration.
Traditional migration steps are-
1. Hardware provisioning
2. OS build
3. Oracle clusterware build
4. SAP installation
5. DB refresh/migration
I want to optimize step 4 and 5 with some method like- storage replication (SRDF) so that I don't have to do SAP installation and DB refresh/migration for so many times (considering 3 landscape). Please note that this is like for like migration with no changes.
I have 2 questions on this-
1. Can SAP systems be migrated using storage replication method? If yes, what are the pros and cons of this approach?
2. What are the limitations of this method?
Thanks,
Abhi
