Hi
In short: I wonder if I can decommision (delete) Solution Manager and SLD, if we do not need to do any upgrades on connected sap systems, as they are only old reference systems not used since 2009. We need to keep the two connected systems available until October 2024 and might have to move these two systems to new infrastructure vendor during this time.
More details:
We have moved all SAP systems to a different country, except three SAP systems, an old solution manager system with System Landscape Directory with two connected SAP reference systems not used since September 2009 that we need to keep accessible for 15 years according to laws in this country. All moved SAP systems is connected to a new Solution Manager system.
I have stopped the old Solution Manager, and I can still use the two connected systems. I have been asked to upgrade OS on solution manager server as it is running on windows server 2003 which is no longer supported by Microsoft. Instead I wonder if I can just decommision the system, but I am not sure if solution manger is needed in order to move the two old reference systems to new infrastructure vendor...
The versions of the 3 systems (if important):
Prod ERP system ABAP - 7.0 SR3 - SAP_BASIS 700 16, Oracle 11.2.0.3.0
Prod BI system ABAP+JAVA - 7.0 SR3 - SAP_BASIS 700 16, Oracle 11.2.0.3.0. SAP_BW 700 18
Solution Manager - SAP Netweaver 702, oracle 10.2
Is it safe to decommision solution manager or would I have trouble moving the two reference systems then?
Hope you can help.
Best regards
