PI Upgrade checklist

Hello,
We have a planned upgrade from XI3.0 to PI7.1 and we need to provide an estimation of efforts for support during upgrade.
Unfortunately,we don't have experience for such upgrade.
Also,currently our Seeburger version is 1.7.4,please let us know if this needs to be upgraded as well.If this is the case,which version would be compatible with PI7.1?
Can anyone please provide a checklist of the activities need to be performed or a link where we can get such a document?
Thanks a lot in advance.
Regards,
Shweta

Sorry to ask so many questions,but migration of scenarios will be done one by one.How does this take place?
No worries, that's why we have this forum
migration of scenarios will be done one by one.How does this take place?
Best approach is to migrate non-SAP to non-SAP interfaces; it will be best to implement a single scenario first with all of its attendant interfaces. This could be migrated and tested very quickly. This would offer a high probability of success with low risk.
If this was not a migration project, then an alternative, of course, is to leave the scenarios as they are during the migration and promotion to production, and then to create a new version of the scenario objects and test the new features in that version. This would definitely be the recommendation if the existing system were being directly upgraded. Since they are being migrated, however, it would be easy to test the new feature in a development or sandbox system during the migration.
I hope,our mappings will still be usable.We extensively use RFC lookups,what will happen to such UDFs?
There shouldn't be any issues with RFC lookups. You can still re-use the same UDFs.
Also,we use CMS for transport,and that would change to CTS,is this correct?
CTS+

Many thanks,

Mavericks upgrade from Mountain Lion deletes all user accounts

This is a lesson for upgrading too early (and too eagerly).
Today I tried the Mavericks upgrade from Mountain Lion on my 2007 Macbook Pro, after going through all the pre-installation/pre-upgrade checklists.
I don't think I have gone from a very high to a down low in such a short space of time. I really wanted to move on from Mountain Lion and when the installer finished the upgrade to Mavericks and re-started my MBP, I was super excited. When the restart completed and I was presented with the login prompt, I tried entering my user name and password. First time, it shaked on the password... OK, you'd think that is a typo. Re-entering the password... same thing.
You can imagine what ensued. After entering my password v-e-r-y slowly many times, I started realising that something went very VERY wrong.
Just for information, I used two different user accounts on my MBP under Mountain Lion. The one account had administrative priviledges and was only used for installing applications and a few other administrative tasks. Then I have a second personal account, which does not have administrative priviledges and is the account I use daily for Mail, Safari, iTunes, programming etc.
None of those accounts worked under Mountain Lion. Basically, there is no way in.
I then proceeded to boot with the startup option Cmd + S (command-line access). Once that was completed, I was in as root and checked the /etc/passwd. None of the user accounts were there. I was only able to find two user accounts: root and nobody; and a long list of user account that started with an underscore (I think these are some sort of esoteric user accounts). So, it appears that the Mavericks upgrade did not accurately bring over the user account information from my Mountail Lion installation.
Then, I went into the /Users directory and there I could see the home directories for all the users as they were defined under Mountain Lion. The contents were intact too.
It seems to me that the Mavericks upgrade from my Mountain Lion forgot to bring over the user accounts but it did preserve the contents of all the users' home directories.
Unless anyone can spot some sort of user error here (please let me know), I am heading back to Mountain Lion pretty swiftly. Otherwise, I suspect there is a bug in the Mavericks installer.
Any assistance is appreciated.

The reason this occurred is a mystery and has not been commonly reported. Consider the following. It may or may not help. You should probably print these instructions before proceeding.
Boot Single User mode again and do the following:
(You can skip the first step. It will check your boot volume for errors and correct what it can. If there were errors the installer should not have proceeded, but the possibility exists that directory corruption may have occurred during installation. That seems unlikely to me but could explain what went wrong.)
In Single User Mode:
At the :/ root# prompt, type fsck -fy and press Return or Enter. It will take a few moments to complete. If you are concerned that nothing is happening just press the Return key until you see the :/ root# prompt again.
Once the disk check is complete and the prompt returns, type mount -uw / and press Return / Enter.
Type launchctl load /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.opendirectoryd.plist and press Enter. If you get an error message you may ignore it.
Type ls /Users and press Enter. All of the usernames on the computer will be listed, which is helpful if you don’t know or remember what these are.
Type dscl . passwd /Users/username password while replacing username with one of the users displayed in the previous step and replacing password with the new password of your choice. Press Enter. You will likely get an error message about a file or directory not being found. You may ignore this.
Type reboot and press Enter.

Database upgrade of R12.1 from 11.1.0 to 11.2.0

Hi,
It looks the database 11.1.0 is installed when R12.1 is installed, and I would like to upgrade the database to 11.2.0.
When I went through notes and discussions, most of them are about upgrading from other lower versions to 11.2.0.
Can anyone help me with finding discussion threads or documents which concerns about upgrading from 11.1.0 to 11.2.0?
I would like to find out pre-upgrade checklists, upgrade procedures, and post upgrade steps...
Thanks in advance,
And, sorry if this post is under wrong category...

You dont have enough privilege cause you were disconnected from the previous command you enter :

Your problem is the ORA-24324, not a privilege problem.

Information: Patches that can Cause problem while Upgrading 10.2.0.4

Hi ALL
The Upgrade checklist and know issue for 10.2.0.4 is now available on Web iv .
Note 464674.1 - Checklist for EM 10g Grid Control 10.2.x to 10.2.0.4 OMS and Repository Upgrades.
This article is a quick checklist to follow when upgrading EM 10g 10.2.x to EM 10gR4 (10.2.0.4) and to report any Known Issues during Oracle Grid Control 10.2.0.4 Upgrade.
Please email me your suggestions/comments to improve it. Going forward this note would be updated as and when more information get in. In case you wish to get something added then please send me the details.
Regards
Akanksha

Hello Akanksha
Thank you for your note.
Unfortunately, it is rather confusing.
You are telling 10.2.0.4 is not supported as a DB for the OMS repository
And then, you describe the procedure to upgrade to this version.
I have a Cst who followed the Release Notes and upgraded its repository to 10.2.0.4.
Now, he can read that it is not supported. He just apply an Oracle doc and now he is no longer supported. That is quite amazing, isn't it ?
What should he do then ?
- Wait for 10.2.0.4 to be supported (as a terminal release, it is rather surprising it cannot be supported) ?
- Downgrade to 10.2.0.3 ?
Would you have some ideas or informations regarding the reasons of this no-support ?
Best regards
Gilles
