Is there a best practice for a System Copy Process from production to a test systems when using ECC, SLT Replication & HANA?
Use case:
- 2 ECC sytems, using 1 SLT sytem, replicating to 1 HANA Database.
>>Replication user/schema is same in prod & test, as is the secondary DB connections.
>>One ECC using CO-PA Accelerator with alternate SLT replication to HDB.
>>Second ECC using SLT repllciation for SD tables to HDB.
>>ECC systems are copied back at different times (North America & International).
- Data Services loading HDB with non-sap data.
Would we System copy the SLT (and export only table entries that apply to the ECC system that was copied back)?
Or NOT copy the SLT, & adjust entreis in the Copied ECC system?
Also, would we have to Export the HDB ECC user/Schema from Prod HDB to Test HDB?
And if so, are there other HDB table entreis that would also need to be exported from prod HDB & imported into the Test HDB?
(SYS.REPL.RS_REPLICATION_COMPONENTS, <replication User>/RS_STATUS, etc)
We are tyring to avoid doing an initial replication to re-load of all the ECC data in replication status.
Thanks for any input.
