BW Netweaver 2004 upgrade and mySAP ERP

What makes the most sense to do the BW 3.5 and BW NetWeaver upgrade before, after or at same time as the mySAP ERP upgrade

I would upgrade before or after because it's not effected to the real data, any thing goes wrong with Cubes and ODS we can reconstruct and load the data from OLTP. Performing before would give you an edge of upgrade to NW.
Key point is to make sure Plug-ins support to the BW version.

LSMW after Upgrade on mySAP ERP 2005 is Fields lost

We use LSMW version 4.0.0. After Upgrade of 4.7 on mySAP ERP 2005 parts of Fieldmappings are no longer present. Project concerned has the following characteristics: Business Object method BUS1001006 method SAVE DATA. Use Extension E1BPPAREX/E1BPPAREXX The Fieldmapping to the Extension is missing. Unfortunately the 4.7-System is not present, so that I cannot make from the system a reconstruction.

Hello Eric.
Did you ever discovered what happened ?? I have the same problem for Bussiness Object method BUS1001006 method SAVE DATA, I am using version 4.0.0 , of the LSM Workbench from 08/31/2004.
Part of the fieldmapping was missing, only the header mapping remained.
But no upgrade has been performed, the only movement has been an upgrade from kernel 7.01 level 23 to 88.
I have assigned the mapping in QA tested and imported it to PRD, it now works, but a big question is, what happened to the mapping ??
Why is it missing in all the systems ??
I would sure like to find out, just to take precautions and make sure it does not happen again.
If anybody can help me out there, I would sure appreciatte it.
Best regards.

Hi,
what version of 2004s are you using?
I had problems with web dynpros in our upgrade last year.
We had to :
Reimport the old EP6 portal theme. After the upgrade, all web dynpros in our portal were corrupted.
Install patch level/hotfixes for 2004s web dynpros sp8. Our portal was crashing with some web dynpro.
Maybe you have some problem with portal cache. I know that some problems were fixed in sp9 or more for the cache.

Upgrade to mySAP ERP 2005 with Unicode

Dear Experts,
We are currentl looking at upgrading our 4.5B system to mySAP ERP2005 and have the following issues.
1.Our DB size is currently 2.4 TB and with Unicode we expect more....what should be the best strategy to control the DB size apart from Archiving?
2.What will be the effect on the Roles and what steps should be taken in order to make it a smoother upgrade?
Since Iam new to this upgrade and have not had any upgrade experience,I would appreciate if you can share some detailed documentation as well as answer to my queries.
Regards,
Mohammad.

Hello Mohammad,
I would recommend the SAP Data Management Guide for ways to control and manage DB growth. There are many references to data archiving, but it also has a lot of information on how to prevent growth, or delete data that does not need to be archived. You can get this guide from the following link:
https://service.sap.com/data-archiving.

Can SRM 5.0, ECC 6.0, Netweaver 2004S upgrade to SAP Basis 7.1/kernel 710?

Hi guys,
For IPv6 support, based on note 1346768,
===================================
o You use AS ABAP with a SAP Kernel 7.10 and at least patch level
150 or a SAP Kernel of Version 7.11 or 7.20.
====================================
How can the SRM/ECC/Netweaver products use IPv6? As far as I know, version 7.1 has not been released for these products yet. Can we upgrade the SAP Basis support pack only to 7.1?
Thanks!

Hi,
You already gave yourself the answer : "version 7.1 has not been released for these products yet".
So it means that IPV6 support is not yet possible for SRM 5.0 and ECC 6.0.
You have to wait for SAP and most probably you will have to do a full upgrade of the product and not only of Netweaver.
Regards,
Olivier

System Copy for SAP Netweaver 2004 ABAP and Java

Dear Friends,
We are planning to do System copy for CRM 4.0 (ABAP+Java) from PROD to Quality.
Production has following
Production
CRP (ABAP+JAVA, Oracle 10g)
CR1 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
CR2 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
Test
CRT (ABAP+JAVA, Oracel 10g)
CR1 (Java Standalone, CRM Applications, Oracle 10g)
As per my understanding perfrom System Copy in two methods
1. Using Offline backup of CRP from the Split Mirror backup.
2. Export of the CRP from the Split Mirror backup.

If you have Split Mirror available you could definitely use it. Redirected restore or export/import are the alternatives.You could also use file copy (system offline is preferred).

Required clarificatrion about Netweaver 2004s

Hi All,
If anybody of you is having information about the following, please put it here.
1. Need confirmation about 'Record Management System' (DMS?)
availability in base NetWeaver 2004s platform (not mySAP ERP or any other mySAP application)
2. Possibility of integration of documents (word, pdf, excel) with a custom transaction /
Master data (also report if possible)
I know DMS module is avalable with ERP. but how do we use in NetWeaver 2004s -ABAP Custom transaction.
I proposed to use KM in EP, but can we KM in ABAP (I feel 'No')
Your ideas are appriciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Sireesha.B

Hi,
The NetWeaver platform contains only the technologies behind the business. It has the WAS stack for instance, that enables the business modules to function.
The DMS that you are talking about, seems to be a module provided by SAP, and should be residing in the ERP stack. With just the NetWeaver 2004s, you will be able to create a custom transaction I suppose. But the business data has to come from the ERP addition.
The KM module needs a Portal installation. It cannot run on the ABAP stack.
Hope this helps.

Installing Netweaver and mySap

Hello Everybody,
I need to install mySap, but the problem is that after installing SolMan 4.0 and using many features to configure the MaxDB database.
=> I can't configure Solman(do I need FrontEnd)
I don't really knows how I could install Netweaver 2004s and mySap ECC 6.0.
I checked the huge quantity of ínformation(seeing all the Guides that Sap could offer)
The problem is that every Guide links you to another.
It's like every road goes to Rom but which one is the short one?
Please Guys help me,
I have spend three Months installing Solman4.0 because of many buggy Bugs.
And I really don't want to spend this Summer doing that.
I used Vmware and the only version that works Java 1.4.2_09.
Database is MaxDB.
The Installation is on Central Server.
I'll be greatfull if you have a good tutorial for the first Step of Installation.
Please tell me how should I start.
Best Regards,
Kais

Hi
Use the below link, there are only 2 guides max you should closely follow -
<a href="https://websmp209.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700003114792005E">for Planning & Inst. docs</a>
1. Planning - This First Steps document helps you get started when you install or upgrade to mySAP ERP 2005.
2. The Master Guide - mySAP ERP 2005 provides important information about the installation sequence and the components to be installed.
Now go to this link
<a href="https://websmp209.sap-ag.de/sapidb/011000358700003114792005E">SAP ERP 2005 - Installation Documentation</a><a href="https://websmp209.sap-ag.de/sapidb/011000358700003114792005E">SAP ERP 2005 Inst docs.</a>[
for docs, choose the o/s (AIX/ Windows/ Linux) you want to use and just follow the guide.
Btw, if you are using VMWare you must have sufficiently large RAM in order to be sucessfull installation.
Hopefully SOlMan 4.0 will have no issues with recent SR 2, revert for queries
Hope this helps, good luck
Cheers

Is mySAP ERP 2004 is UNICODE compliant

Dear Friends,
We are planning to upgrade from 4.6c to mySAP ERP 2004.I would like to clarify is mySAP ERP 2004 is unicode compliant or not.Asking this I mean all the data will be organized in unicode format in the new system when we are migrating or not.
I would be happy if some one can let me know efforts that are need to upgrade from mySAP ERP 2004 to 2005.
Thanks & Regards
Mrutyunjay

Unicode and non Unicode systems can co-exist in the same server, indeed. I have done it several times without any issues. Is it a fresh installation or a conversion? Make sure that you follow the SAP recommendations for additional CPU/RAM/disk space if you convert

How to upgrade NetWeaver 2004 to NetWeaver 2004s in order to abtain WD for

Hi Experts:
At the minimize level, How to upgrade NetWeaver 2004 to NetWeaver 2004s in order to abtain the capabilities of Web Dynpro for ABAP ?
FYI: NetWeaver 2004 is run in my server.

hi Guixin,
During Netweaver 2004s upgrade, the upgrade program detects what software is installed on the source release system and maps it to the SAP NetWeaver 2004s usage types. SAPJup then upgrades your system to a
system with the determined usage types.
Please refer to the section '1.2.5.3 Upgrade Paths: Overview' of the Upgrade Master Guide : SAP NetWeaver 2004s to have details about the target release of the usage types which will be mapped to the components installed on the source system.
Netweaver 2004s Upgrade guides are available on SAP Service Marketplace http://service.sap.com/instguidesnw2004s
Hope this information help you in your upgrade tasks

SAP Best Practice For Unicode Upgrades - NetWeaver 2004s

Team SAP,
I have a customer that is starting to plan for a Unicode upgrade. The question from the customer is as follows:
What is the SAP Best Practice for Unicode Upgrades? They will be upgrading from a BW 3.5 System to NetWeaver 2004s, and their question is ... should they:
a) Perform the Unicode Upgrade At The Same Time As Their BW 3.5 > NetWeaver 2004s Upgrade, or
b) Perform NetWeaver 2004s Upgrade first, and then at a later date, perform the Unicode Upgrade?
Thank you in advance for any guidance or counsel you may be able to offer.

New IBM JDK 1.4.2 for SAP NetWeaver 2004 and 2004s

In May 2006 IBM System p brand and SAP announced the direction to enhance the IBM AIX 5L JDK 1.4.2 for SAP NetWeaver 2004 and SAP NetWeaver 2004s based applications. The new IBM JDK 1.4.2 for SAP NetWeaver applications on AIX 5L is 100% upward compatible for all SAP business applications and, compared to the classical AIX JDK, provides a more consistent runtime behavior, enhances memory management, and improves debugging capabilities.
General Availability (GA) of the new IBM JDK 1.4.2 for SAP NetWeaver 2004 and 2004s on AIX 5L
As part of a staged release process aligned between IBM and SAP a customer pilot program was started in August 2006 followed by a Controlled Availability (CA) program. Based on positive customer feedback resulting from real production usage and the very encouraging internal test results, the new IBM JDK on AIX 5L is/will be generally available
 for SAP NetWeaver 2004 SP14 and above starting at 5th of February 2007
 and
 for SAP NetWeaver 2004s SP06 and above starting at 30th of March 2007.
This means systems running above SAP NetWeaver releases in an AIX 5L environment are allowed to use the new IBM JDK without restrictions.
This announcement does not affect the use and support of the classical AIX JDK outside SAP environments.
Transition Plan to the new IBM JDK 1.4.2 on AIX 5L
SAP will support the classical and the new JDK in parallel for a limited number of NetWeaver support packages. Afterwards only the new IBM JDK will be supported:
 for SAP NetWeaver 2004 the first support package only supporting the new JDK will be SP21 (planned date for SP21 see http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700001130682005E),
 for SAP NetWeaver 2004s it will be SP14 (planned date for SP14 see http://service.sap.com/~sapidb/011000358700004584092005E).
So please plan a transition to the new JDK prior to the upgrade to these support packages.
SAP and IBM strongly believe that the switch to the new JDK will improve your experience with JAVA based SAP applications on AIX 5L. Both companies recommend upgrading to the new IBM JDK 1.4.2 for SAP applications running on AIX 5L as soon as it matches your companys maintenance plans.

You can download the JDK directly from the sun java website...
http://java.sun.com/products/archive/j2se/1.4.2_12/index.html
I don't think Ubuntu is supported...

Juan
