Hello Jessica, I do not know your OS-version, however e.g. in the "backup and recovery guide V4.1.0 english" you will find LIC-recovery at chapter 12. Some pages later (Loading the LIC) there's the menu with "initialize system". Btw I am scratch installing a 500-box for Y2K-tests (;-) Good luck for your installation procedure Thomas > * SAP R/3 BASIS & AS/400 System Administrator > * > * Magistrat Linz, Amt Datenverarbeitung, Abt.

I have looked in the backup and recovery guide but apparently not in the correct place as I looked again tonight online and was still unable to find reference to this! Maybe a vacation and a few espressos and it will jump out at me. (: Anyhow, I appreciate your account of the matter and I will give it a try tomorrow.
