Migrating to DB6 v9.5

Hello,
i want to migrate DB release v8.2 FP12 to v9.5.
If i follow SAP Note 101809 - DB6:Supported Fix Packs for UDB i can find that currently supported software level for DB2 is 9.5GA with special_18161.
SAP Note 1079000 Number IV explains the need for Fixpack 1 to migrate Unicode Databases.
Does this meen that the Migration to v9.5 is currently not supported?
Thanks,
Tino

Hello Tino,
we have several reports from customers who faced the problem described in APAR IZ14827 during the migration from DB2 UDB 8.2 to DB2 9.5 GA. For IBM the problem is solved with Fix Pack 1 which is available from IBM but is still validated at SAP.
I see two options here.
Option 1:
Before you migrate
- Ensure that you have an appropriate backup (you should have this anyway...).
- Check if table sysibm.syscolchecks has entries. To the best of our knowledge the problem does not appear if this table is empty.
Option 2:
If you want to be 100% sure: request Fix Pack 1 for DB2 9.5 from SAP Support.
Regards,
                                                   Johannes

  • The system executes DB6-specific jobs on a non-DB6 system.

    Hi experts,
    Our R3 system is ECC6 and is running on oracle.
    The below background jobs are running in our system.
    CCMS_COLL_DB:RSDBPREV
    CCMS_COLL_DB:RSDB_DAILY
    CCMS_COLL_DB:RSDB_PAR
    CCMS_COLL_DB:RSDB_TDB
    CCMS_COLL_DB:RSDB_WDB
    As per note 1167933, These jobs are provided for the monitoring of DB6 systems in a heterogenous system landscape. They are also scheduled if there are no DB6 systems to be monitored.
    Could anybody please confirm if I can go ahead and delete this jobs as they do not seem to required in sap system with oracle database?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Amit Jana.

    Was this system migrated from DB6? Did you use SM36 - Default Jobs - to schedule them?

    Hi,
    1. please check if /usr/sap/DEV/SYS/exe/run/dipgntab exists or not ?
    2. Does it have executable permissions?
    3. Does your user have authorization to execute it?
    4. if you executed dipgntab manually, does it work ?

  • Homogeneous System Copy for 4.5B/DB6/W2K ?

    I'm looking for the documentation on doing a homogeneous system copy for an R/3 4.5B System for a client.  They are running DB6 on Windows 2000.  I've searched Service Marketplace and can only find doc's back as far as 4.6C.  I can't find the one for 4.5B.
    The client is looking to migrate the current system to new hardware and then subsequently upgrade to ECC 6.00, but that part is off a piece.  The first part is to migrate the system to the new hardware in order to solve some space and performance issues.
    If anyone can point me to the docs, or has a copy on their local machines they can send me, then please let me know.
    Thanks.

    I suggest you open an OSS call under BC-INS and ask for the guide there.
    Since 4.5B is out of maintenance and you/your customer has (hopefully) an extended maintenance contract for that version they will give you that guide.
    If you do NOT have them, you might be pretty lost in case of a problem, if you have the guide or not...

  • Migration unicode Linux to unicode AIX

    Not sure if this is the right forum.
    I am trying to run heterogeneous system copy of Unicode SolMan 7 Enh 1 system from Source Linux target AIX.
    Having problems with R3load export.

    I THINK I have to do a Unicode migration to get from Linux Unicode little endian
    to AIX Unicode big endianu2026
    Is there such a thing as Unicode to Unicode migration documentation anywhere?
    Does current Unicode Migration document have Unicode source section?
    This system already had Unicode migration at SM 7.0 level...
    Does this mean UMG tables need reset?

  • Procedure for becoming certified for OS/DB migrations?

    Hi,
    Can someone please tell me how one can go about becoming certified for OS/DB migrations?... ie is there a specific course and what are the pre-requisites?
    Thanks
    Sharon
    PS: We are currently on 4.6C and looking to migrate to another O/S.

    All complete now.
    There isn't a SAP suported method of migrating an APO 30A system, just some generic migration info.
    I used a combo of the DB6 migration stuff, standard migration utilities and oracle exp/imp.
    All worked without a hitch.

    Hello All,
    I am doing the migration and during the import i had selected "Start Migration Monitor Manually".
    I had set all the required parameters in the "import_monitor_cmd.properties" file and started the import.
    All my import was sucessufully except one package "SAPAPPL2_1"
    In which i got the following error in the SAPAPPL2_1.log file
    (IMP) ERROR: DbSlExeModify/DbSlLobPutPiece failed
      rc = 26, table "CSMCLSMAP"
    (DB) INFO: disconnected from DB
    After that i set one more parameter in the "import_monitor_cmd.properties" file that is
    "loadArgs=-stop_on_error -loadprocedure fast LOAD"
    And then the import of this table was sucesufull
    Can Any one explain what the parameter "loadprocedure fast LOAD" means and how did the table got imported successfully.
    And why only one package required this parameter and not all packages.
    Regards
    Anthony

    "the migration" means what? What are you migrating from where to where?

    That error means, that a LOB could not be imported.

    The "-loadprocedure" options are database dependent, I assume you're on DB2 LUW, right? Since you didn't give any other information what you are doing all I can do is to point you to
    Note 1058437 - DB6: R3load options for compact installation with DB2 9
    which explains the different options.

  • DB6 backup to tape

    I'm new to DB6. We have just migrated our SAP ECC6 sytem from Oracle 10.2 to DB2 v9.1(FP3).
    If I try to backup to tape, I get the following message whether the tape is blank or not:
    sapdev:db2hsd 4> db2 backup database HSD online to /dev/rmt0.1
    SQL2031W  Warning! Please mount the target or source media on device
    "/dev/rmt0.1".
    Do you want to continue(c), terminate this device only(d), abort the utility(t) ? (c/d/t) c
    SQL2059W  A device full warning was encountered on device "/dev/rmt0.1".
    Do you want to continue(c), terminate this device only(d), abort the utility(t) ? (c/d/t)
    If I backup to disk I have no problem.If I look @ db2diag.log, I see the following information:
    2008-08-08-13.10.38.537853+120 E7613028A695       LEVEL: Error

    EINVAL from write() does not mean a real disk full condition.
    Possible reasons :

    The sytem is definitely seeing the tape drive, because if I use the following command, it works:
    db2tapemgr DB HSP DOUBLE STORE ON /dev/rmt0.1 FORCE
    My one concern, with the above command is that I have to use the force option.
    When the system was still on Oracle, we used brbackup and brarchive without a problem.
    Is there something else I need to configure to see the tape drive "properly"?

    Hello Jean-Jacques,
    There is a restriction on the number of fixed block sizes that can be used when backing up. This restriction exists because DB2 writes out the backup image header as a 4-KB block. The only fixed block sizes DB2 supports are 512, 1024, 2048, and 4096 bytes. If you are using a fixed block size, you can specify any backup buffer size. However, you might find that your backup operation will not complete successfully if the fixed block size is not one of the sizes that DB2 supports:
    [http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/db2luw/v9/topic/com.ibm.db2.udb.admin.doc/doc/c0006201.htm]
    There is a SAP DBA Guide: DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows on SAP Marketplace (Installation & Upgrade Guides -> SAP NetWeaver -> SAP NetWeaver 7.0 2004s (if this is your system's version) -> Operations, then choose Database-Specific Guides -> "SAP DBA Guide: DB2 for Linux, UNIX, and Windows", which has extensive session on how to setup your tape drives to work with db2 backup. 
    As well, you can check out OSS Note 141872 that talks about a similar problem.
    I hope it helps.

  • How can I Migrate/Split itunes/icloud account for a large family now that they have family sharing

    Ok, now that Apple has finally come out with family sharing I need to get things sorted out and I think it is going to be a mess. I have 6 family members (my spouse and 4 children) all sharing/using one itunes account. For parental reasons this made perfect sense. Now with the the advent of family sharing and such we have alot of sorting and migrating to do and I am very unsure how to go about it. Here is what we have.
    Myself - I have a 64GB iPad 3 and a 64GB iPhone 5
    Spouse - 64GB iPhone 5
    Children - x4 16GB iPhone 5C (pink, blue, green, and a yellow)
    We have had one itunes account now for several years, we used to have x4 16GB iphone 4's and a 16GB iPod touch 4 so we needed it to be shared at the time. We all have different Game Center ID's and Facetime/iMessages are all setup to the phone numbers (aside from mine which also uses the itunes e-mail). We currently have 1 upgraded icloud account with 200GB of storage on it (love the new tiers). So here are the questions.
    1) How do I go about using and isolating all the devices so they can all use the iCloud storage? Right now if I try and setup backups by device under the what to backup there is no simple "Full Backup" option, they have all the categories separated. I cannot backup my daughters contacts without forcing a merging of them and so on. Same thing with Documents and Data. Would I need to setup a different iCloud account for each device now?
    2) iTunes Music/App purchases. Now that they have a family sharing function I am assuming it would be a good time to separate all the devices (aside from my personal iPad/iPhone). If I understand correctly we need to setup a new itunes account for each and link them with family sharing, does this then allow us to disperse/move items from a singular to the multiple account (at least a one time option to move around) or would it simply be shared off the original account? My daughter for example will be 18 next summer and as such no longer under our care. How do we move her items to her account? She has a lot of purchased Music. Now keep in mind I am talking about an account for someone who was 12 when she had her first device and as such needed to be under her parents.
    I just want to state that repurchasing things is NOT an option, and to be frank,  according to Canadian laws pertaining to *licensing* we actually own the product if we paid for it and have the right to transfer the ownership thereof. This issue went through the courts regarding used copies of OEM editions of Microsoft Windows several years ago and they closed the legal *license* vs ownership separation.

    Go to appleid.apple.com to manage the ID, sign in and select to the Name, ID and Email Addresses section, then change the birth date on the bottom right.  At the present time you may not be able to enter the correct birth date, but others have had success changing the year to 2000, or the date to 1/1/2001, both of which will have child ID status.

  • Migrating open POs and GR/IR clearing account balance

    Hello gurus,
    I've got the following problem concerning migration of open POs:
    For example: In my source system there is a PO for 10 pcs. of some material. There has been a goods receipt for 5 pcs. (200$ each).
    Now, when I import this order and the corresponding purchase order history into my target system (using LSMW), the target system creates the order, a material document for 5 pcs. and an account document.
    But of course, our FI-team also has to migrate the balance of the 'old' GR/IR clearing account.
    So, the balance in the source system is <> 0 (e.g. 1000$), because the 5 pcs. have been delivered but there has been no invoice receipt yet.
    This balance is imported into the new system and then the open orders are migrated, generating an account document and thus, the balance is 2000$ afterwards.
    This obviously is not correct, so I am sure that I am missing something, just what?
    Thanks
    Alicia

    Hi,
    1. There will be an open PO uploaded for 5 qty and price 200$ each
    2. Opening Balance of Material - 5 qty and corresponding value to Stock A/c - 1000$
    3. Also there will be Vendor Balances uploaded in the system as 1000$ against the invoice. (If the invoice is still expected then chec with FI Users if they can get invoice form vendor)
    if no then do not upload initial stock entry of step2, create a PO of 10 qty and then do GR in system (SAP).
