Migration of EBS from 32 bit to 64 bit

Hi
I want to migrate my EBS (11.5.10.2) from SUSE Linux 10 32 bit to SUSE linux 10 64 bit.
I want to upgrade EBS from 11.5.10.2 to 12.1.1.
As this Production I want to reduce the max down time.
I know that 11i is not supported on 64 bit architecture.
Can you please guide me the migration path on higher level
Thanks

IMO, the following would be the best approach.
1. Lay down R12 (12.1.1) software on the new 64-bit server

2. Upgrade 11i to R12 (12.1.1)
Oracle E-Business Suite Upgrade Guide
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E18727_01/doc.121/e16342/toc.htm
3. Upgrade 12.1.1 to 12.1.3

If you have any queries about migrating the database, please mention your database version and whether you want to migrate it to 64-bit (or if it's already running on 64-bit OS).

Migrating EBS from 32-bit to 64-bit

Hi,
I have a R12 Instance(12.1.3) with 11.1.0.7 database on 32-bit Linux. Now we are planning to do a clone of the existing R12 Instance to a newly created 64-bit Linux server. So i would like to know the steps involved in migrating the E-Business Suite from 32-bit to 64-bit.
Regards,
Vineel.C

I had gone through the Metalink Note[471566.1] which you had sent me. It was useful but internally it had referred to another Note:762669.1 which says in Migrate from Linux 32-bit to Linux 64-bit
h.Upgrade the database from 32-bit to 64-bit (recompile pl/sql modules and change the word size) by running $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql. Refer to the usage and notes sections in the script for instructions on how to run it.
But in general utlrp.sql is used for compiling Invalid objects.
Can you elaborate on this.Because of the word size change (from 32-bit to 64-bit), the database objects will be invalidated and you need to run utlrp.sql script to compile them.

Migration from 32-bit to 64-bit on Oracle 9.2.0.5

Hi guys.
I have two question for migration 32 bit to 64 (x86_64) bits on Oracle 9.2.0.5 for SAP 4.7 Enterprise?
1.- When i migrated 32 bits to 64 (x86_64) bits is necesary migrated to Oracle 10 ?
In the note SAP Note 960769 - Windows: Migration from 32-bit to 64-bit (x86_64), say that, pag 4:
" Oracle:
=====================================
On Windows Server 2003 X86_64 (64-bit), you may only use Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2) software for X86_64 (64-bit) as a database. Note 949116 describes the installation (homogenous system copy) of old products that were not originally released on Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2). If you want to make the copy using the backup/restore procedure, for which the source database was not yet upgraded to Oracle 10.2, see Note 932722"
But, in the pam matrix say that support for 9.2.
I confused for the information.
2.- In the case that is not necessary to migrate to oracle 10, i can execute the migration to 64 bits the SAP 4.7 with the procedure Backup/Restore?
I don´t have the new server, the server for the migration is the same. The procedure you want to follow is:
1.- Backup Offline all server.
2.- Delete the server, i install the server on Windows 2003 64 bits.
3.- Install SAP 4.7 on kernel 64 bits.
4.- Restore de backup offline (only data): datafiles, archive log, redo log.
Aprecciated for the help.
Best regards,
Desiré

Hi,
According to Note:814834
#Note that there is currently no 64-bit support for the x86_64 platform
for Oracle 9.2 because Oracle does not provide a 64-bit DB client for this purpose,
and, in addition, 64-bit operation of the DB server is not supported.
This means that this DB version can only be used in conjunction with SAP components on
Windows 32-bit on x86_64 hardware in 32-bit mode.
For more information, refer to the "Oracle" section in the note.
Furthermore, it states 32bit SAP instance can connect ot a 32 bit Oracle 9.2 or 10.2 database instance.
So for your case, its better to upgrade your current database to Oracle 10.2 and then proceed with migration.

Unable To Sync After Migrating From Win XP(32 bit) to Win 7(64bit)

I received a new PC, dual core platform, for XMAS. However, I received a Com 1 port failure when performing a Hot Synch to upload my PD(,M500) data to Palm Desktop on the new PC. Palm tech support said there is no USB driver available for the 64 bit OS. Does anyone have a 3rd party USB driver, or any other suggestions to allow me to do a Hot Synch on my new PC.
Thx,
Ed

Try to use Windows XP SP2/3 compatibility mode first, see if it works for you. And use Alchemy for the Audigy 2 ZS, FS2004 is making use of Directsound after all. Read the guide for using Alchemy here and here. Download Creative Alchemy here.
Hope it works for you!

System Copy/ Oracle Backup/Restore as part of migrating from 32 to 64-bit

Source system (I386): R3E47 Ext Set 2.00 SAP_BASIS 620 Kernel 640 Windows 2000, Oracle 10.2.0.4, non-unicode
Target system (x86-64/AMD64): R3E47 Ext Set 2.00 SAP_BASIS 620 Kernel 640 Windows 2000 Oracle 10.2.0.4, non-unicode
Am using method System Copy/ Oracle Backup/Restore to migrate from 32 to 64 bit (HOM System Copy).
Actions on source system:
a) Upgrade from 9.2.0.7 to Oracle 10.2.0.4
b) Used ora_br_copy.bat to generate CONTROL.SQL and init<sid>.ora
c) Switched logfiles
d) Performed offline backup
Actions on target system:
a) Installed Oracle 10.2.0.1 and patched it to 10.2.0.4
b) Used CD 51033746 "6.20/6.40 based products Installation Master (Edition May 2008)" to install the CI
c) Started installation of the DB instance selecting System Copy/ Oracle Backup/Restore (same <SID> for source and target systems)
Relevant input parameters used:
Database schema: SAPR3
Database character set: US7ASCII
d) When SAPINST stopped to allow for restoring of datafiles, logs and init<sid.ora>:
- copied datafiles and logs to the usual place
- copied CONTROL.SQL (edited to include utilrp.sql and utlrp.sql for the migration from 32 to 64) to the DB-instance intallation . directory.
- copied generated init<SID>.ora to the <ORACLE_HOME>\database
e) Resumed SAPINST.
David Byrne in a previous post suggested: "check your oracle alert file in case there are errors there you may need to update the word size for the 64bit install. Errors like this in the oracle alert file would suggest that.,
ORA-12012
ORA-06544: PL/SQL: internal error, arguments: [ORA-06544: PL/SQL: internal error, arguments: 56319], [, ], [, ], [, ], [
ORA-06553"
Well, I am getting ORA-06553: PLS-801: internal error [56319] but then my edited CONTROL.SQL (which is mainly a CREATE CONTROLFILE as it would be obtained with a ...BACKUP CONTROLFILE TO TRACE) includes at the end this:
shutdown immediate
startup upgrade
spool utlirp.log
@?/rdbms/admin/utlirp.sql
spool off
Shutdown immediate
Startup
Spool utlrp.log
@?/rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
Spool off
exit
which is supposed to do just that... (I think)
Help, anyone?

> Trying to cheer me up, are you?
No
> It is NOT free that reorganization! Quite expensive, actually, paid for in time! But you're right... the database needed a reorg anyway :-\
True, not "free" - it takes time but the data will be nicely aligned then
> And why would I have to reconfigure all those 10.2 features? Everything's either in the database or init<sid>.ora, ain't it? And my database is a pretty 10.2.0.4 with all those nice features already activated...
No - not really auotmatically if you upgraded from 9.2 And "init<SID>.ora" is past, you nowadays use "spfile" If, of course, e. g. Automatic Undo was activated in 9.2 then it's there of course in 10.2 too.
> One sticky point... I haven't really read the r3load procedure yet and I will before I import, but... I would say I don't have to do anything about the 32->64 bit, right? I mean, it should behave properly while reloading on 64-bit...
The exported content is about 10 % of the size of the system, it's database and OS independent so yes, you can import it nicely on 32bit. Another tip: make sure you don't just use the default configurations for R3load, it will take a HUGE amount of time. Use the package splitter (builtin-in in sapinst) so you get a much higher parallelism when importing.

Upgrading EBS 11.5.9 from 32-bit to 64-bit

my company is planning upgrade EBS 11.5.9 from 32-bit to 64-bit. I have found out in this forum mentioned 11i Apps tier cannot be upgrade to 64-bit. Can we upgrade our oracle database 9.2.0.3.0 from 32-bit to 64-bit? Which version of RHEL can support 9.2.0.3.0? Is there any issue accessing oracle between Apps (32-bit) & DB server (64-bit, if able to upgraded from 32-bit)?
Currently we are using 32-bit RHEL AS 2.1.

Migrate Central instance from 32-bit to 64-bit

Hi All,
We have SAP in Distributed Environmnet( Central Instance running on 32-bit windows & Database instance is running on 64-bit AIX).
Since there are lots of memory dumps , we have decided to upgrade Central instance from 32-bit to 64-bit windows.
We don't want to disturd database instance as it is alredy running on 64-bit.
Please share your thoughts to accmplish this task.
Thanks in advance

Ah ... during this migration, it'd also be nice to migrate your CI to a virtual name. This way, for future migrations, you won't have to change the profiles.
If you decide not to migrate to a virtual name, then make sure you adjust the default and instance profiles to reference the new server name for CI.
If you decide to migrate to virtual name ...
1. Assign 2nd static IP to your server.
2. Insert your virtual name in the following registry and reboot:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Lsa\MSV1_0 > create new multi string variable with name "BackConnectionHostNames" and put as value the virtual name.
yourHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\lanmanserver\parameters > create new multi string variable with name "OptionalNames" and put as value the virtual name.
3. Adjust the c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts to include mapping of 2nd static IP to the virtual name.
4. Map your virtual name to the secondary static IP in WINS.
5. Make sure you rebooted the server. Log into the server and do a "net view virtualname" and "net view physicalname", both should be successful. Do not continue until this is successful, most problems are caused by DNS vs WINS, some corporations need the mapping in DNS and not WINS, some the otherway around.
6. Change the user variable to include SAPLOCALHOST and SAPLOCALHOSTFULL, set both to the virtual name.
7. Adjust the start and instance profile of the CI to include SAPLOCALHOST and SAPLOCALHOSTFULL.
8. Cycle the SAP NT services to make sure the new user variables are adapted.
9. Adjust all default and profiles to adapt to the new CI.
10. Adjust STMS to use new CI name.
And, you can also migrate DB to a virtual name as well using the same registry entries. Except DB name doesn't require it's own IP, so it can share the same IP as the physical server. Adjust the user environment variables and SAP profiles afterwards to adapt to new virtual name.

MDT 2012 to Migrate from Windows 2003 32 Bit to Windows 2012 R2 64 Bit

I have used MDT for so long however only for client OS upgrade - XP to Windows 7/8.
We wish to use MDT to migrate from Windows 2003 32 Bit to Windows 2012 R2 64 Bit. All servers are virtual on HyperV or VMWare - plan is to use USMT hardlink Migration.
Is this supported? Has anyone used this for server migration?
Regards, Vik Singh "If this thread answered your question, please click on "Mark as Answer"

Thanks Keith for your reply.
Even is USMT does not work, we are ok. SMIGdeploy will be helpful.
Basically, want MDT to run some scripts on the Windows 2003 server, post which install Windows 2012 and join it to the existing domain with the same computer name.
Then hydration kit to help with the installation of features etc. Also, we would like to take a complete backup to a WIM before migrating.
I am sure this is workable.

You need to look at the log files in the \work directory for your instance. There will hopefully be a useful message in one of the server or dispatcher log or trace files. Report back any error messages, or you can try searching in SDN.
