Now  you are Done..

Install the license through OS level. (saplicense)

Prerequisites

The database interface library is linked dynamically as of Release 4.5A. For saplicense to find this library, the following variables must be set in the environment of the user calling saplicense:

dbms_type = <database type> (for example, ora , inf , ada , mss , db2 , db4 , db6 )
DIR_LIBRARY = <path to dynamically linked database library> (for example, /usr/sap/SID/SYS/exe/run )

You must be logged on as the <sapsid>adm user. This ensures that all of the required environment variables are set correctly.

saplicense -show                      Display all SAP license.

if it’s not working then also check your database connectivity by R3trans -d.

saplicense – delete

First enter the SAP System ID. saplicense then asks you for the hardware key (11-character hardware key).
Enter the hardware key.

saplicense then asks you for the product ID (a name beginning with “R3_”) that indicates the database type (for example, R3_ORA).
Enter the relevant product ID for your SAP System.

The licenses are then deleted. This is confirmed by the message: saplicense: license deleted

saplicense -install   (This license can be provided manually or by file)

Here are some basic commands to troubleshoot & checking the connectivity of SAP Router to SAP or others SAP routers.

Restart a router:
saprouter -r -V 2 -K “p:CN=<local saphost>, OU=<customer number>,  OU=SAProuter, O=SAP, C=DE“

2. Out put to below commands should be error free respectively enables you to verify certificate import to SAProuter local host reach on required port:

Output of the command ‘sapgenpse’
Output of the command ‘sapgenpse get_my_name -n all’
Output of the command ‘sapgenpse seclogin -l’
Output of the command ‘ping 194.39.131.34′ <localsaphost at your end>
Output of the command ‘telnet 194.39.131.34<localsaphost at your end> 3299

3. To verify internal firewall has been released to allow the access from your R/3 system(s) to your local saprouter server. You can verify the firewall rules and the connectivity to SAP using the following commands:

niping -c -O -S 3299 -H <localsaphost at your end>
niping -c -O -S 3299 -H /H/<localsaphost at your end>/H/194.39.131.34
niping -c -H /H/<localsaphost at your end>/H/194.39.131.34/H/194.39.131.34

All above command end with success or with connected message. if you find any error in any above niping command then you might have PORT opening issue in firewall or certificate issue.

Logon to Solman and run SE37.

Then —- /TMWFLOW/MO_UI_BASKET_AUTHORIZ

Insert the value I_OSS_RFC = SAP-OSS

Then Click on Execute Button

Here we can see T_APPROVED_OBJECTS is one  which we were approved.

Run SAP Download Manager –> Download the selected and approved packages.

This is something tricky, however i will try to explain this in easy words.

1. Create a notepad file and save this file as .vbs ext.(example: email.vbs) and save the below contents. However you require Email address, SMTP port & SMTP server address.

Set objMessage = CreateObject(“CDO.Message”)

objMessage.Subject = “SUM Upgrade Update”

objMessage.From = “from@from.com”

objMessage.To = “to@to.com”

objMessage.TextBody = “SUM tool requires user inputs”

objMessage.AddAttachment “e:\usr\sap\EC5\SUM\abap\tmp\upalert.log”

‘==This section provides the configuration information for the remote SMTP server.

‘==Normally you will only change the server name or IP.

objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _

(“http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/sendusing”) = 2

‘Name or IP of Remote SMTP Server

objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _

(“http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserver”) = “Your mail server IP address”

‘Server port (typically 25)

objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Item _

(“http://schemas.microsoft.com/cdo/configuration/smtpserverport”) = 25

objMessage.Configuration.Fields.Update

‘==End remote SMTP server configuration section==

objMessage.Send

—————————————————————————————————————————————

MAKE SURE THAT SMTP SERVICE IS RUNNING ON YOUR HOST WHERE YOU ARE GIVING THIS SCRIPT.

You can write multiple recipients in “objMessage.To = “to@to.com” this file separating by commas.

NO NEED TO CHANGE THIS LINE

 “objMessage.AddAttachment  e:\usr\sap\EC5\SUM\abap\tmp\upalert.log”

AS TOOL  AUTOMATICALLY CREATES A FILE WITH REQUIRED DETAIL & MAIL TO YOU AS ATTACHMENT.

2. Create a notepad file with .bat ext.(email.bat) and call this vbs script(email.vbs) through this file. (as upgrade tool only recognize batch file)

3. Setting in upgrade tool & Test the settings.

4. You will received email like this.

If  you find any difficulty while configuring alert setting, you can reach me at adil(at)adilfahim.com.

Before starting EHP upgrade always prepare a download directory and keep your all downloaded SAR & stack.xml  files in same directory. During upgrade sometimes EHPi got hangs & you feel it’s not working so please check abap/log or abap/tmp for any log or errors.

Below is the quick glance of errors which i faced during upgrade.

Go through this below SAP note before starting EHP upgrade.

1.  Extraction Phase – Missing Notes – It will show you some missing notes. you have to import SAP notes in your ECC 6.0 EHP 4.0 system via SNOTE to continue. (some notes can only be applied in client 000 & can also requires functional people so make sure during note implementation you get confirmation from functional team)

2. Configuration Phase – SPAM Version Check -  To avoid this error update your SPAM to latest before starting upgrade.

3. Configuration Phase – Include Change Request – if you want to include any change request to be imported during upgrade to give details otherwise continue to skip this option.

4. Configuration Phase – Errors -  Download latest R3trans, tp & libdbsl(dbsoralib.dll) from Marketplace and extracts it to EHPI/abap/exenew & EHPI/abap/exe dir. This is the place where your new/extracted kernel resides, recheck that you are downloading the right R3trans & tp for your new kernel & also check R3trans -d( it should finish with 000) from your new kernel dir( i. e. abap/exe or abap/exenew)

5. Check Phase – Errors – Create Tablespace PSAPSR3702 with <given space>. This is the manual activity. you have to complete this activity via BRtools. You also get one file with name “ORATBSXT.LST“  in abap/log, in this file you will find how to create tablespace with recommended size.

6. Pre processing Phase -  Open repairs found – If your system is development system or any unreleased requests are there so release it or before proceed.

7. Pre processing Phase – MAIN_INIT/JOB_RSVBCHCK2 were Negative- Check log file and find the errors. this error occurs if you have any update request pending in SM13 or any outbound queue pending in SMQ1. Delete all the request from SM13 & SMQ1 and proceed. if it’s still giving error also run report RMCEX_SETUP_ENTRIES and delete the structural data or call transaction LBWG to delete the contents of the setup table  for all clients. Also check this SCN post http://scn.sap.com/thread/903136

8. Pre processing Phase – Lock development – This option will lock your development system for future development till upgrade.

9. Pre processing Phase – MAIN_SHADOW/START_SHDI_FIRST – failed to start shadow instance, check log file STARTFSI.log & DEVTRACE.log. usually this error occurs where there is short memory. in our case we check that if we down our main instance then shadow instance get up. both are not working simultaneously. we insert the parameter in shadow instance profile. (abap/heap_area_total = 2000000000) and also set the recommend page file size and restart the shadow instance. also check this SCN post – http://scn.sap.com/thread/1876639

10. Pre processing Phase – ACT_UPG – in our case ACT_UPG phase takes more then 12 hours to complete.

11.  Take full backup before downtime starts.

12. Downtime Phase – MAIN_SWITCH/KX_SWITCH_1 -  check log files, in our case EHPi fails to copy to 2 kernel files from exenew dir to /usr/sap/<SID>/…. we manually copy that 2 files and proceed.

13. Downtime Phase – MAIN_NEWBAS/STARTSAP_NBAS! -  check log files, in our case SAP error reading our instance profile from /usr/sap/<SID>/sys/profile. There was junk character in the profile but after removing that character EHPi again not able to read the profile so we copy the contents of our instance profile and create a new instance profile and then proceed.

14.  No more Errors in Downtime & Post Processing Phase.

We have completed our ECC 6.0 EHp 4.0 to EHp 5.0 successfully after these efforts. i was not able to note down the exact time for every phase.

Manual Post steps – in our case after logging to EHp 5.0 SAP system, we found that our Updates are deactivated, we activate the updates in SM13 & also create structure of financial. ( i forgot the exact thing as this is done by my colleague.)

Oracle upgrade 11.2.0.2 requires 10.2.0.4 version. first we upgrade 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.4 then 11.2.0.2.

I have also prepare the notes for the same. if any one requires or stuck on any phase, do let me know.

However it’s gives me some error while importing the Database Content.

if anyone need any assistance for ECC 5.0 System Copy, drop me an email adil(at)adilfahim.com
