ECC 6.0 upgrade to EHP4 via EHPI - Problem

I'm upgrading an ECC 6 system to EHP 4.
In the extraction process I get the a strange error message:
Error: unknown hostname "<hostname>"
The message server of your SAP system is not running,
or the hostnames known by the message server are wrong.
I've checked. The message server is running and the hostname is known in my host file and in the server's hostfile.
Any idea's to what this is causing?

Hi,
Please help on this. I am getting the same error.
ERROR: unknown hostname "<hostname>"
The message server of your SAP system is not running,
or the hostnames known by the message server are wrong.
We have HA installation on Solaris.

Is Java stack mandatory for EHP4 ? If yes what in documents i need to go through....
If JAVA stack is not required, How hosuld i update to EHP4.

If Java is required or not depends on your scenario. If you only use the ABAP part now and you don't plan any other scenarios then Java is not required.

ECC/ERP Upgrading to EHP4 - basic steps?

Just installed fresh ERP/ECC 6 from disks labeled EHP4 ready. Needing to upgrade immediately to EHP4. To do this, my understanding is that I need to initiate a maintenance transaction from solution manager to start the process and then proceed (basically following these directions http://sap.wsteinert.com/blog/2009/10/implementing-the-ehp-4-part-2/ ).
Can anyone describe (in detail) the maintenance transaction process and what I have to configure on the solution manager side to get this up & going?
Also, does the EHP4 process require that I download the components? It looks like I already have some media that may have EHP4 components on it. Can I just do a local upgrade using the media?

> Can anyone describe (in detail) the maintenance transaction process and what I have to configure on the solution manager side to get this up & going?
You have to Create a maintenance transaction in the SAP Solution Manager and select the
appropriate technical usages in order to calculate the corresponding software
packages.

Upgraded our system from ECC 6 to 6.04 (EHP4).

Dear All,
We have upgraded our system from ECC 6 to 6.04 (EHP4).
There are many request in old development server which are in local request now .
We want to transport those requests to new development server which is upgraded one.
Can any one let me know is there any standard way of transporting these requests from old Development system (6)to new one(6.04).
Thanks
Anuradha

Hi Sahil,
Looks like latest EHP installer concentrate more on downtime minimize strategy. We have only 3 options available as follows.
1. Standard resource use
2. High resource use
3. Manual selection
Please take a look at below thread. Let's see what other experts comment on this.

Upgrade to EhP4/NW 7.01 in ECC

We are on ECC 6 and BI 700.The Basis team is planning for an upgrade to EhP4/NW 7.01 in ECC . Does that mean the bi 7 is upgraded with EHP1? Can some one please clear this. What does NW 7.01 in ECC mean?
Thanks,

Hi,
ABA Support Package 20 for 7.00
Basis Support Package 20 for 7.00
BW Support Package 22 for 7.00
It appears that the BI system is separate as the component levels here do appear to be
from BI system rather than having ECC components also.
Your SP stack level looks to be SPS20 which is quite old and should be updated before
updating system to EHP1.
Please refer to the following documentation:
1142832 - Installation Enhancement Package 1 for Netweaver 700
1146578 - Central Note: Upgrade to Systems on SAP NetWeaver 7.0 EHP1

ECC-DIMP 604 upgrade

Hi exports,
I had alredy upgraded my ECC 6.0 Ready to EHP4, know i am trying to upgrade the component ECC-DIMP using SAINT.
My OS platform is HP-UX IA and DB is Oracle.
In the SAINT queue i had put both ECC-DIMP 603 and 604, along with stack.xml
While import during DDIC_ACTIVATION phase it failed and the log file shows "tp ended with return code 12 ".
I had checked the file system and data base tables, it seems ok.
Recently i had upgrated my kernel to 117, which is the latest one.
Also i had alredy gone through all the below mention notes, and taken action as necessary
Note 822380 - Problems w/ add-on inst/upgrade to SAP NW 7.0 AS ABAP
Note 874473 - Release strategy for ECC-DIMP as of ECC 6.0
Note 874471 - Additions for installing or activating ECC-DIMP on ECC 6.0

Please provide your valuable suggestion
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
The problem is solved after applying SAP Note 1476315 - Error in activation protocol for switch framework.
You need to implement the coding corrections of the note to your system and restart import . If the note cannot be
implemented via SNOTE, as most likely the note assistant may be locked . Please ask one of your developers to perform the changes manually via SE80/SE24

Load balancing after ECC 6.0 upgrade

Hi
I we this configuration on ECC 6.0 upgrade:
SAPGUI 7.10
SAP_BASIS 700 Patch level 15
SAPportal ESS
Webdispatcher Installed
Internal ITS
Single sign-on
Can somebody assist as with identifying the problem with load balancing (PUBLIC) E.g. When running ESS remuneration package via the Sapportal. we have configured ITS-Based GUI Services on transaction SICF for customised ZESS_PZ11PDF service.
When we have load balancing group on the load balancing does not work, because I see somebodyu2019s payslip
but when using one app server I see my own payslip. Please help.

Hi PR,
Please take a look at the following link:-
http://help.sap.com/SAPHELP_NWPI71/helpdata/EN/28/75153a1a5b4c2de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
"You can only use the SAP message server for HTTP load distribution if
the browser is the direct client of the message server. If another
component lies between the client (browser) and the message server, (for
example, the portal), you cannot use the message server to distribute
the load."
When using the External ITS you could balance the load using the message server and logon groups. In 700 this functionality is not present if there is not a direct connection to the client (Firefox or IE). So you will have to install the webdispatcher to balance the load.
Hope this helps

Excel layout changed after EHP5 upgrade from EHP4.

We have just finished the EHP5 upgrade from EHP4 for ECC 6.0 for our production system. BUT we noticed that The standard layout, (also known as Dynamic List Display) has been chagned in EHP5 compare to EHP4.
This is affected us as we have lot of macros enable for the excel files.
Request you all to help. Is there any sapnote, anyway we can resolved this issue.
Thanks

Hi Markus,
Thanks for reply.
I not sure how i can attached file over here? Is there anyway to attached files in the forum?. I have the before and after image of excel file.
But the position of the data which is downloaed in the excel sheet has been changed after upgrade. For example ,Before upgrade the column named "Description" in the production plan report was in the second column i.e. B where as after upgrade the "Description" column in the production plan report is in the first column i.e. A.
I mean the postion of the data changed in after upgrade. Therefore macro which are enable are not working anymore.
New Format Example
Production plan
Description                        Material                               Sales doc.

IRB 2600 M2004                 3HAC020536-018              2BT0615486
OLD Format
Production plan
                                      Description                    Material                               Sales doc.
                                      IRB 2600 M2004            3HAC020536-018               104861
                                      IRB 2600 M2004            3HAC020536-018               2BT0615486
Hope this above will help to make it clear.
After checking this message ... the output example given above seems to be not showing the way i itend to... But in above example in the old format the Description column was at column B instead of column A after upgrade.
Thanks

okay I've done everything regarding the transfer process (via file>transfer purchases) and syncing, so everything on my iPhone device seems to have been transferred to my iMac... however, I still get that message ("There are purchased items on the iPhone..."), trying to upgrade the iOS Have tried several times the same process of hitting transfer purchases via file, but nothing seems to make that message go away! Would have been nice to know which files I actually do need to transfer, which I don't get any info on of course...
Starting to get really annoying this thing.. Any smart suggestions what's going on?

I backed up my iphone 4 and did an upgrade and changed my Apple ID and password but my phone has not recognised the new ID to upgrade my apps via the iphone. How do I get rid of the old Apple ID when it comes to upgrading apps.
I have been into setting>store and signed out and signed back in and it still asks for old ID and password.

Everything you've had up to now has been tied to your old Apple ID. You cannot switch it over to a new Apple ID. You should contact iTunes support to help you with this:

SAP R/3 4.6 C to ECC 6.0 Upgrade using CU &UC method- Unicode conversion

Basis Gurus
   I am working on upgrade from R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
ECC 6.0 upgrade completed( still in non Unicode). Now I am in the process of Unicode conversion.
I have used following methods for the upgrade.
1. Combined Upgrade & Unicode conversion(CU & UC)
2. Resource minimized( as I am doing it in Sandbox).
As I understand I need to perform the DB export and Import now for the unicode conversion.
According to the Upgrade document, First I need to run Export using R3load in ECC6.0(Non unicode)
and then install Unicode system and import the same data file.
My understanding was, when I choose, Resource minimized, I need to run Export and import
in the same system.
Can you please help me , whether I need another Unicode system for import ??
Graham

Hi,
Dont get confused with upg strategy and unicode conversion.
In general Upgrade strategy (either downtime-minimized/resource minimized)
In unicode conversion you have export/import(exp/imp) of data concept
In CU&UC approach you have to do in a streach to complete migrate from old release to new realease ECC 6.00.
Using database independent (sapinst only) or Using database dependent (migration monitor or Distribution monitor)
It can be done in 2 ways.
If you dont have addtional server for unicode conversion
       1)you can either do exp on same hardware and take bakup and do import using the exp dump.
       2)Do exp on one server and prepare your target empty database on another server and complete imp of data.
Hope this is clear.

Vamshi.

Error in WBS Element Hierarchy load after ECC 6.0 Upgrade

Hi All,
After ECC 6.0 Upgrade in R/3, we are doing test load in a Test server. While doing, we have encountered an issue with 0WBS_ELEMENT Hierarchy load. The message in the monitor is like below.
"Node ID 00014240 has not been included in the hierarchy
Message no. RH207"
When I run the same hierarchy in another system which is not upgraded , it works fine.
Anybody has faced similar kind of issues and can throw some light on this issue?
Thanks,
Mohan

Try activating the Heirarchy in R/3 and re-trigger the load, error is very specific to structure of the hierarchy. there is a possibility that this Hierarcy could have got inconsistent after the upgrade.
Thanks,
Amit
