Migrating/Upgrading NWDI from 7.0 to CE 7.1

Hi,
Currently we have application developed on NW 7.0 (Web Dynpro, J2EE, EJB etc) and we have NWDI 7.0 for code repository.
Now we are planning to migrate the NW 7.0 (Web Dynpro, J2EE, EJB etc) to CE 7.1 (we have documents & procedure to do this).
My question is:
1. Does repository NWDI 7.0 supports for all kind of DC/applications if we migrate NW 7.0 (Web Dynpro, J2EE, EJB etc) to CE 7.1, If not what are the chanllenges?
2. Is it required to upgrade repository from NWDI 7.0 to NWDI CE 7.1? If so how we can achieve/migrate the code to NWDI 7.1
Please suggest.
Regards,
Patana

Hi Patana,
Let me give you some background first...
*1) Yes, NWDI 7.0 will support all the developments that you will be migrating to CE 7.1
2) There is no 7.1 version of NWDI, that means you ned not worry about NWDI version as, it is just a platform that acts as repository for your source code and version control.*
So you don't need to upgrade your NWDI.
But wait it doesn't mean that you don't have to upgrade anything from NWDI side .
As your Application Server will now be running on 7.1 version, you will have to get a compatible CE 7.1 version of developer studio too.
Also the Tracks that are present in your NWDI 7.0 version will be required to be upgraded with the latest build time dependent SCA files of the 7.1 version too.
This is a step-by-step guide for setting up NWDI for Composition Environment.
Link:[HOW TO SETUP AN NWDI TRACK FOR COMPOSITION ENVIRONMENT DEVELOPMENT (SAP NETWEAVER CE 7.1)|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/7014086d-3fd9-2910-80bd-be3417810c6f?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true]
To update all the tracks with the latest .SCA files, follow the below mentioned steps...
1) you need to copy all the standard .SCA files of 7.1 version from the path /usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/EPS/buildarchives/ as mentioned in step 10 of the above manual to the CMS transport directory (<specified in the domain tab>CMSinbox) directory in order to make these dependencies available for your tracks.
2) Then, in SLD you have to modify all your software components that are used in track and replace all their build time dependencies to the 7.1 version.
3) Update the CMS,
4) Remove and add the tracks SCs back for your track.
5) Save the track, while saving always choose Save & Re-import button.
6) Check-In the latest 7.1 version SCA into Development and Consolidation tab.
You have repeat this for all the tracks.
Please revert in case of any further clarification.
You can also refer to the thread Re: source code of a track nwdi, for understanding how NWDI works under the hood.

  • How to upgrade tracks from NetWeaver 7.0 to 7.3?

    Hello!
    I'm trying to create a Web dynpro 7.3 track from a 7.0 track. It's for a sandbox install of 7.3 so I don't want to change the current track or SC but I want to include all my developed code for testing purposes.
    I've read about track migration here:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/8061e964-2036-2e10-ee9d-ef21d174fdd9?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
    and here:
    Migrating/Upgrading NWDI from 7.0 to CE 7.1
    but it's missing some important information. How do I get my current code into the new track? It just says "Import your SCs and required SCs in the new track in NetWeaver 7.3".
    My old track is called Extern and contains a SC called ExternSC. The new track is called Portal73 but which SC should it contain?
    I can't check in my old SC without adding a dependecy to it.
    Should I create a new Extern73SC with dependency to the old one? Then it wants to check in the old 7.0 dependencies as well.
    I want to be able to create projects from the old DCs so they can be migrated to 7.3 as well.
    The forum thread above suggest changing the dependencies of the current SC to 7.3 components  and add that to the new track, but that would break my current 7.0 track, right? I tried to make a new version of the SC with the same name but I still couldn't import the existing code.
    Is there a more complete source for track migration?
    Please help me if you can

    Thank you for your answer!
    Just to make sure I do this correctly.
    I have a product called ExternProd (1.0), and an existing SC called ExternSC (1.0) that belongs to the product.
    Do I need to create a new product version as well?
    Otherwise I do this:
    In Software catalog in SLD on the NWDI i click "new software component version"
    In the dialog box I select ExternProd 1.0, unit Extern 1.0, enter vendor, name ExternSC and version 2.0 and click create.
    I define dependencies to SAP SCs but NOT to ExternSC 1.0.
    Now if i go to the product I see two software units for ExternProd 1.0.
    I add ExternSC 2.0 to my track and then I should be able to forward the old SC and import it in development, or should it be exported and checked in?
    Is this what you meant?

  • I upgraded my macbookpro hard drive to 1 TB then migrated my files from time machine. I'm now locked out of the computer because the password is not the same as my usual one and one that was years old and not retreivable. How do I work around this?

    I upgraded my macbookpro hard drive to 1 TB then migrated my files from time machine. I'm now locked out of the computer because the password is not the same as my usual one and one that was years old and not retreivable. How do I work around this?

    Whether or not you are able to recover the data off the drive yourself will depend on if the drive suffered any impact damage in the crash. You can buy USB SATA or IDE adapters (Intel and almost all G5 use SATA) that will let you connect your hard drive to a computer (like a flash drive) to see if you can recover the data. If the drive has suffered physical damage if may not mount.
    If you know someone who has one of these adapters you could try using theirs, otherwise you could buy one but you take the risk of the data on the drive being non recoverable. Regardless, both are much cheaper than $1699!
    (Alternatively, if you know of someone with a Mac Pro or PowerMac G5 they may be able to install the drive in their machine and try to boot from or mount it and copy the data off.)

  • Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?

    Can I upgrade directly from ColdFusion 9 Enterprise to ColdFusion 11 Enterprise without going to 10 first?
    For those who have done this,
    1.  What quirks did you find that you had to overcome in your installation (I know that everyone's environment is different and produces differest results)?
    2.  What part of your code broke for which you had to find fixes?
    Tips and suggestions for a smooth installation, besides following the installation document.
    Thanks!

    Create a car (archive file) in CF 9 enterprise which will capture all CF 9 settings like Data sources, Web services etc. Make sure when you are doing this, pop up blocker is disabled.
    NOTE : While creating the archive file, give the full name with the absolute path in the package name. For example C:\Test\mypackage.car
    Then move this car file into the server where you want to install CF 11. Install CF 11 and then  deploy this archive (car) file. All CF 9 settings will be migrated to CF 11 enterprise.
    Else, if you want to install CF 11 on the same server where CF 11 is installed, then remove the connector for all the websites which are configured with CF 9, make sure the CF 9 services are running and then run the CF 11 installer and at the end of CF 11 installation, you will get a dialogue box which will ask you to migrate CF 9 settings in CF 11.
    Run the Code Analyzer in CF 11 Administrator to check whether any the CF 9 code used in your application is breaking in CF 11 or not

  • Upgrade paths from cs5 to cs5.5

    Hello,
    I just got off the phone with customer service. I upgraded from CS4 to CS5 in late December. I would like to upgrade InDesign from CS5 to the 5.5 version. I was told this isn't an option because I own the suite.
    This perplexes me since I have purchased many, many single items from Adobe in the past--from Pagemaker 3 pretty much on. Is it really true that once I went to CS2 I abandoned my rights to upgrade individual products?
    It seems a bit unreasonable, after spending $600 at the end of last year, that now, three months later, I need to spend another $400 just to update one program. Am I missing something?
    I am posting here because the representative I spoke with had a really, really hard time understanding English and I'm not sure he even got my question. It took him over a half hour just to find my account and verify that I had a registered version of Design Premium. He told me that part of the problem was that I have purchased so many Adobe (and Macromedia) products over the past 15 years that I now have four accounts and that it was not possible to consolidate all my software under one single account. This also sounds very odd. HELP!
    Thanks!
    Ruth

    I looked into crossgrading. The whole thing was a comedy of errors. My new custom built super-charged PC developed an un-diagnoasable software error, and then got stolen after being sent in for repaired. At the time, it seemed like my best option was to start the migration from Windows, buy a Mac laptop, get software to run on it, yet still keep my Windows options open in case the PC was found. I was using a backup PC to keep work on schedule.
    I used one of my Macromedia cross-platform suite products to upgrade to the Mac CS3 suite. So it wasn't as expensive as it could have been. In hindsight, yes, I should have just abandoned the PC and crossgraded. But I was very fearful after all the computer issues I had encountered that I would have problems with one or the other of the two computers and I felt I needed some redundancy just to ensure I didn't have more downtime.
    I'll look through the Adobe site for a license transfer form. When I called several months ago, the agent, made it sound like these were very difficult to come by. Or perhaps, the agent just didn't know. I've ran into this several times with Adobe. One agent tells you one thing, another says something entirely different. Customer service is lacking in my opinion.

  • Upgrade project : from SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0 by using SAP Data Services

    Hi All,
    My client is upgrading from SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0
    We are planning to use SAP Data Services(Data Integrator) in the upgrade plan from SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0 for Data Migration.
    we have no idea whether we can use this SAP Data Services(Data Integrator) in SAP upgrade data migration.
    The bottom line is we have to make use this Data Services (Data Integrator) product in our upgrade plan for Data Migration.
    Please tell us if anybody already used it such kind of scenario in a data migration project with Data Services(Data Integrator).
    If we can use Data Service(Data Integrator) what are the pros and cons in using this Data Services(Data Integrator).
    Thank You,
    Ashok

    My opinion is you would want to utilize SAP tools to port the data - our SAP BASIS administrator is out this week but we can provide exact tool names when he returns.  ELM (External List Management), IDOC are some of the tools.
    You could use DS/DI to export, cleanse, deduplicate the records prior to importing with SAP tools if that is your end goal.
    We also offer a data quality tool that extends DS/DI to cleanse/deduplicate name/address records as they are entered into the system.  It also comes with batch tools to cleanse/dedup the entire systems name/address information.  See Data Quality Management for SAP for further details.

  • Upgrade CFM from Sap R/3 Enterprise (4.7) Sap to ECC 6.00

    Hello,
    We are in a project of upgrade Sap from Sap R/3 Enterprise (4.7) to Sap ECC 6.00. Our question is particularly for CFM component migration/upgrade.
    As we checked we have activate the extension set:
    EA-FIN: Financials Extension
    EA-FS: Financial Services
    According with the Component Version Data the extension set EA-FINSERV has the release 2.00. However, in order to execute the CFM migration with transaction TPM_MIGRATION we are not sure if our CFM installation is on release 1.00 or 2.00.
    In the other OSS note 858966 mentions the following conditions to start points migration:
    1. The start release of the upgrade is SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 with SAP
    R/3 Enterprise extension set 1.10 or earlier.
    2. The target release of the upgrade is SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 with SAP
    R/3 Enterprise extension set 2.00 or higher.
    Do you know a transaction o report Sap which provides this information?
    Thank in advance.
    Sergio

    Within SAP, select System -> Status...  In the pop-up box, click the details button in the SAP System data section and you'll get another pop-up with system component information.  It's been a couple of years since I did the Treasury migration for our upgrade from 4.7 to 6.0, but I believe the component you're looking for is EA-FIN.  The Release column will have either 110 (for extension set 1.10) or 200 for (2.00).

  • How to migrate publish service from Lightroom 4 to Lightroom 5?

    I have been upgrading from LR4 to LR5. Then I imported the LR4 catalog. But no Publish service was following to LR5.
    I have used the FLICKR plugin a lot - made more than 80 FLICKR-sets. Therefore I would be terribly sorry if I do not succeed in restoring the contact to the old service files. Does anybody know how to migrate publish services from Lightroom 4 to Lightroom 5? Very fine if it's going to be a kind of a workaround.
    Best regards
    Jimmy

    You'll need to backtrack a little, open your LR4 catalogue in LR5 and allow it to upgrade the catalogue with publish services.
    If you've done work on images in the "wrong move" catalogue, identify those images, select them, and do a File > Export as Catalog. in the "right move" catalogue, bring this work in by File > Import from Another Catalog.
    Alternatively, it may be worth looking at Jeffrey Friedl's Flickr plugin as he may have looked at this problem. Maybe someone here will know if it would help.

  • Webex Migration & Upgrade 1.5 to 2.0

    Hello,
    We have an old UCS for Webex components. It has Esxi 5.1 Webex Meeting server 1.5, &  vCenter Server on it .
    We have got new UCS box. We installed Esxi 5.5, Webex Meeting Server 2.0 ( using cisco-webex-meetings-server-2.0.1.107.B-AE.ova file) & vCenter Server on it.
    We don't have central storage.
    We need to migrate database from Webex 1.5 to Webex 2.0.
    I have gone through webex administration guide, it says it has to be under same vCenter to migrate database Attaching an Existing VMDK File to a New Virtual Machine
    In my case i have different vCenter Server for both CWMS & i dont have shared/central storage.
    How should i proceed to migrate the database from version 1.5 to 2.0 or how can i bring both Webex Servers under same vCentre ?
    Second question, Is the CWMS upgrade ova file same as installation file cisco-webex-meetings-server-2.0.1.107.B-AE.ova or its different ?
    Regards,

    Hi,
    Are you planning an upgrade on the same hardware or a different hardware (not sure if your system is related at all to the anis_cisco's system)?
    If you are going to use new/different hardware for CWMS 2.0 setup, you will have to use Manual Upgrade process. 
    If you are using the same hardware where your CWMS 1.5 resides, then you can do either Automatic or Manual upgrade. If you plan to do Manual Upgrade, then on the Original 1.5 System you should go to Upgrade > Major Upgrade process which will back the system up, put it in Maintenance Mode, and then ask you to gracefully power off all the VMs (Power > Shut Down Guest in vCenter). Once your 1.5 system is down, you deploy all CWMS 2.0 VMs like a brand new system and follow the instructions noted here: http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/collaboration/CWMS/2_0/Administration_Guide/Administration_Guide_chapter_01010.html#reference_33BF1FFC8C334EACA4CBA2D880E3F206   Pay special attention to STEP 7 and instruction on how to configure the VM so they don't start after deployment. You would use all the same network parameters and hostnames as the original system (and since your original 1.5 system is powered off, there is no IP/hostname conflicts). Finally, once all the VMs are deployed before you power them on, you perform copying of VMDK file per instructions included in the link above and then you power ON all the VMs and your 2.0 system will come up and all the data should be there.
    If you are going to use the same hardware and opt for the Automatic upgrade, then you need to ensure you follow all the prerequisites listed here (disk space, NTP settings, vCenter being accessible via FQDN and not only IP address, assign dedicated temporary IP address and hostname for 2.0 Admin Upgrade VM, and if you have IRP in DMZ, make sure that this new IP address and hostname is allowed the same access rules as the 1.5 Admin VM IP address and hostname have, finally, make sure that vSwitch configuration on ESXi host is Standard vSwitch and not Distributed vSwitch; please make sure to read all prerequisites before you start):
    http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/collaboration/CWMS/2_0/Administration_Guide/Administration_Guide_chapter_01010.html#concept_9552D5BDF2464C0DB4DA8EA250910651
    Per instructions, you will see that while your CWMS 1.5 system is up and running, you will deploy 2.0 Admin Upgrade VM on the same ESXi host where primary 1.5 Admin VM is located. During the deployment you will assign the temporary IP and hostname to this new 2.0 Admin Upgrade VM. Your 1.5 system should be up and running through most of the deployment process, as your 2.0 Admin Upgrade VM will have to access this system (the wizard will guide you). Once all the information is pulled from 1.5 system, the upgrade process will notify you at what point you should put 1.5 system in maintenance and power off the VMs. At that time, the system will deploy all the 2.0 VMs automatically and copy the data. At the first full boot process of 2.0 system, all the original IP addresses and hostnames will be pulled to the new system, and temporary IP/hostname will be discarded. At this time, your 1.5 system is down, and your 2.0 system is up and hence there is no IP conflicts. In the end, once you verified your 2.0 system is fine and upgrade is completed successfully, you can delete 1.5 system. If something goes wrong during the upgrade process, all you need to do is power down 2.0 VMs, and power on 1.5 VMs and the system will come back up as it was before the upgrade. There are no alterations being done to the original system, so you mustn't take any snapshots on the original system before the upgrade. Just let it be.
    I hope you will find this advice useful, but still make sure to read the official guide for detailed steps.
    Kind regards,

  • How to get the new dependency SCA's related to  7.4 version with out upgrading NWDI server

    Hi
    We are in process of upgrading the custom webdynpro and portal components to SAP Portal  7.4.
    I saw in some discussions that, we don't need to upgrade NWDI , we need to install new JDK version(1.6) to map that jdk to the new track for migrating the custom component to new track.
    But i have questions related to NWDI track dependency files.
    When i create new track to support 7.4 components need to be available in the respective track.
    we have central SLD and we create all the product and custom software components in that SLD(7.01) itself , To create the custom software component in SLD , i add  required dependency files. once the software component is ready, when i create the track  in nwdi system i will be able to fetch the custom software component in nwdi system by click on cms update.
    But now i  need following new new dependency software component versions   in SLD  related to  7.4 for creating new software component to those dependency's to support the new track in NWDI.
    EP_BUILDT
    SAP-JEE
    SAP_BUILDT
    SAP_JTECHS
    But my SLD server version is : 7.01 version.
    so do i need to upgrade the SLD server to  7.4 get the latest dependent SCA's  or just need import new SLD content in SLD server to add new custom software component to create?
    kindly advice how to get the new software components  in SLD without upgrading the NWDI  & SLD system to  7.4
    Thanks

    Jun,
    Thanks for the reply.
    But i am not able to find the  following two SCA's related to 7.4 version. I am able to find the rest of the SCA's. I able to see only 7.02 version related to following dependency files.
    SAP-JEE
    SAP_JTECHS
    SAP-EU (CA EU)  ( having only 7.01, 7.02, 7.10, 7.11 and 7.20) related to Guided procedures.
    Did they changed any naming conventions related to these software components? if so what are new software compnents names to use
    Please clarify.
    Thanks
    Vijay
