Finding BI4 on UNIX Patch Level

Is there an easy way to determine the patch level of our UNIX SAP BusinessObjects Business Intelligence 4.0? Help about from the CMC shows Product: 14.0.0, but this does seem to be a patch level. I can't seem to find a reference to this in the help doc.

You've got a few options. If you're on the server, go to add/remove programs. You'll see the version there (patches show as separate items, so you will clearly see "BI platform 4.0 SP2 Patch 5")
If you're not on the server, go to the CMC, go to servers, right click on the Central Management Server and select Metrics. About the 11th item down is Version. You will see something like 14.0.2.439.
Then Google it.
Or click here: http://jdh2n.wordpress.com/category/business-intelligence/sap-businessobjects-4-0/ (Nice one, Jonathan Haun)
For reference:

Hi,
Check this link which may help u:
http://sap.ittoolbox.com/groups/technical-functional/sap-basis/igs-upgrade-1455477
The installation/upgrade procedures for the integrated IGS are as follows:
Integrated Version Installation
The integrated IGS is automatically installed with the SAP Web Application Server.
Integrated Version Upgrade
You find the upgrade files for the integrated IGS version on the SAP Service Marketplace:
http://service.sap.com/swdc ® Download ® Support Packages and Patches ® Entry by ApplicationGroup ® SAP Frontend Components ® SAP IGS ® SAP IGS .
There, you find the IGS executables and libraries (igsexe_.sar) as well as the IGS folder structure (igshelper_.sar) containing among others font files.
With the upgrade files of the executables and libraries, proceed exactly like you would with kernel patches (for example, extract the Archive to the same location). More information about kernel patches can be found in the related note 19466 in the section Copying and Installing a Patch.
The upgrade files for the IGS folder structure must be extracted to the instance directory (DIR_INSTANCE). More information can be found in note 1028690.
After a restart of the Web AS the new IGS is up and running.
Information about finding out your IGS patch level is provided in note 931900.
For an upgrade of an integrated IGS please also check note 896400.
For more info check this SAP Help doc:

Patch-Level/Service Pack

Hi
Im developing an add-on for Sap-Business one 2005.
Is there a way to find out the current Patch-Level and Service Pack?
I need to know that for checking if the right version of SAP is installed. If not I dont want to load the Add-On.
Database-Version is not enough for that because it can be that the UI changed (in a Patch-Level or a Service Pack) without changes in the Database.
My Add-on will use UI functions and Item Positions for linking my own items in SAP System Forms.
Regards
Manuel

Hi Grenacher Manuel
You can use "oCompany.Version" to retrieve the databadse version. You can also look in CINF of your database, that is the version of your company database. Then to check your SBO Common version you look in SINF in SBO Common. This is in case you did a patch upgrade and didn't upgrade the company db.
I do not think there is a table with the SP and patch level. I think sap retrieves the version and from there they determine the SP and PL.
Hope this helps

How to find out EHP Patch Level

Hi All,
Sorry if this has been answered before but with it hasn't or I'm terrible at finding things on here.
We have recently (this weekend) upgraded our BI 7.0 to BI7.01 (EHP1).
We've come across an issue in Java and the following note: 1354569 has a solution for us except that it's saying that this issue is resolved in SP5 or EHP1 SP4 PL5.
I can tell from our system that we are currently on EHP1 , but I can't tell what SP or patch level we're on.
The Java Kernal tells me the following: 7.01 PatchLevel 58805. (this was taking from System Information on the Java stack)
Does this mean that we're on SP5? and if so what PL ???
Thanks in advance for any help!!
Paul

Hi Paul,
Go to http://<server name>:5<instance number>00. On this page log on to System Information. There you can find on which patch level you are in EHP1.
Also, if you will click on all components tab then you will come to know patch level of all components in Java.
Thanks

DB space history not updating in DB02 after upgrading to NW7 patch level 11

We upgraded our NW04 system to NW7 patch level 11 and now when I go into DB02 and click on DB space history there is no new data since the upgrade. SAP_Collector_For_PerfMonitor runs every hour without error. I've checked st22 and there are no shortdumps and I can't find any timeout issues. Ideas?

You may need to a newer release of saposcol. Saposcol comes with your kernel, if you haven't updated your kernel recently that could be a conflict with your saposcol.

PI 7.1 upgrade - PI_BASIS patch level in ECC

Hello
We are looking at upgrading our XI 7.0 SP12 to PI 7.1. Our backend ECC system is at PI_BASIS SP11. Most of our interfaces with the backend are through ABAP proxies.
Will an upgrade to PI 7.1 demand an upgrade to PI_BASIS in the backend ECC system as well?
If not, what is the minimum SP level the PI_BASIS component in the backend ECC system should be at?
I don't find this information in upgrade guide; where will this information be normally available?
Thanks
KK

You can use PI 7.1 with any SAP system.
However, if you want to use Abap proxies based on message interfaces of type "stateless" with WS-RM protocol, the ECC requires SP 14.
The Abap proxies based on XI 3.0 protocol do not require any special patch level.

How to send patch level program changes from concert level instruments?

Heya,
Here's the gist of my setup:
I have two concert level external instrument channel strips (Nord Electro 3 and Prophet 8 module). I am attempting to change the bank on the Electro 3 on a per patch basis. It seems as if the concert level nature of the channel strip is overriding my ability to change on a per patch basis. I am sending out a program change on a certain patch, and it is being reflected in all of the other patches across the concert (this is expected behaviour from reading the manual).
I've been looking for a way to manually send the program changes on a per patch basis (for these concert level strips), using some sort variation of the override parent setting, but I've been unsuccessful at finding a method for doing this. Is it even possible?
The behaviour I'm looking to replicate is easily accomplished by manually creating the external instrument channel strip in each of the patches, and then sending out the appropriate program change message. This isn't a problem to do. It is, however, a tad bit cumbersome and sort of defeates the purpose (in my opinion) of having concert level channel strips.
Any wisdom would be appreciated.
Cheers,
Nick

As far as I know the only way to send program changes is to create channel strips in every patch. I don't use concert level channel strips for that reason.
One of the advancements is that you can level your external instrument on patch level.
Tip: create one patch with the channel strips you need and duplicate that one (CMD-D) to create new patches. Works faster for me.

Problem after upgrade from patch level 36 to 43

Hi,
Recently our system is upgraded from 36 to 43 patch level. After this there are problem in doing hiring action, IT0000 is saving but the next infotype IT0001 does not gets saved and also no error message. So, really not able to figure out what could be the problem.
I was debugging the standard code i.e once the 'save' button is clicked in IT0001 in PA40, but in vain. I am not able to find out where or in which program/include the data gets saved in PA0001. If any one aware of this please let me know.
Since IT0001 is not getting saved, there are probs with IT0007 and IT0008.
Please let me know your views.
Thanks,
Arunsri

Hi Raju,
Thanks for the reply. Ya, the problem was not due to upgrade,but some other issue. Not able to find till now. I checked IGMOD features and it is in 'Active' mode only. No luck.
