SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0 EHP 1  - need to update the stack?

I'm trying to understand the enhancement pack concept and what I need to do to update our solution manager.
currently we are on:
SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0 EHP 1 - Stack 21
ST-ICO 150_700: patch 0022
CPRXRPM 400: patch 0015
CRMUIF 500: patch 0003
PI_BASIS Support Package 04 for 7.01
BI_CONT 704: Support Package 04
ABA Support Package 04 for 7.01
Basis Support Package 04 for 7.01
ST 400: Patch 0021, CRT for SAPKU50015
ST-SER 701_2008_2: patch 0005
ST-PI 2008_1_700: SP 0001
SAP_AP 700: Support Package 0016
Support Package 15 for SAP CRM 5.0
BW Support Package 04 for 7.01
I understand the current stack is 24.  Is this also EHP 1 ?
I believe I need to update to stack 24 in order to stay current.  Is that correct?
In addition, EarlyWatch indicates that the ST-A/PI is missing.  Actually it exists but is not the current package.  I believe by updating the stack, the ST-A/PI will also be updated.  Is this correct?
Should I update the stack to 24?  or just update the ST-A/PI?
Thanks

Yes, check SAP note 1244225.

Yes

Yes. Current support package for ST-A/PI is ST-A/PI 01M_CRM570.
> Should I update the stack to 24?  or just update the ST-A/PI?
SAP always suggest to be on current support package. But I always prefer to upgrade to n-1 strategy.
Thanks

  • Solution Manager Installation Error "SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.0 EHP 1"

    I am new to SAP and currently trying to install SOLMAN 7.0 EHP 1 on Windows Server 2008 R2. I have read the documentation also. For JDK I have used "j2sdkfb-1_4_2_24-rev-b06-windows-amd64.exe" which looks to be working fine.
    The installation process runs fine until it hits "Start Instance" the message on the bottom says "Starting instance xxx/DVEBMGSOO" (where xxx is my sid) and then its times out after 10 minute. After timing out I get the following error on the window.
    An error occurred while processing option SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EhP1 > SAP Systems > Oracle > Central System > Central System( Last error reported by the step: ABAP processes of instance ORC/DVEBMGS00 ABAP: UNKNOWN did not start after 10:00 minutes. Giving up.). You can now:
    Choose Retry to repeat the current step.
    Choose Log Files to get more information about the error.
    Stop the option and continue with it later.
    Log files are written to C:\Program Files/sapinst_instdir/SOLMAN/SYSTEM/ORA/CENTRAL/AS.
    Though the installation steps are not fully completed but I do see SAP management Console and when I open it I see two process running "msg_server.exe" & "igswd.exe" The process dispwork.EXE starts in the beginning and then stops and stays stopped. I tried restarting all the process again but only tow of them starts and the process "dispwork.EXE" starts but then stops again. I also did a NEW installation considering a file could have been corrupted or something else but the installation process stops and the same place. I am sure ppl have installed SOLMAN on windows 2008 R2 and this error seems common to me. Please assist. Any tips would be nice.

    Hi,
    Please check the below
    1) ip/host entries should be in /etc/hosts
    2) patch the latest kernel for 2008 R2
    and re run installation

  • Installation of SAP Solution Manager 4.0

    Hello!
    I have one question regarding the installation of SAP Solution Manager 4.0
    Do I  need to consider the Unicode-installation of SAP Solution Manager 4.0?
    We use  SAP Solution Manager just for the following scenarios:
    <b>Maintenance Optimizer</b> (to patch the existing SAP-systems from SAP Solution Manager)
    and <b>monitoring-functionality (CCMS)</b>
    Thank you!
    Axel

    Hi,
    Thank you very much to  Dolores Correa  and Markus Döhr for replying for my querry.FYI-My system users only use English and I do not have any problem of chineese.My problem is that I am not able to install Non-unicode kernel.The Solution manager installation program(sapinst) only takes Unicode kernel CD whereas my satellite systems are non-unicode.Now if unicode solution manager can work with non-unicode satellites,then the problem is solved.
    Warm Regards,

  • Install SAP Solution Manager with DEV instance in the same server (MCOD)

    Hello, i would like to install SAP Solutions Manager together with DEV ECC 6.0 in the same host, DEV is currently installed and working fine.
    I followed note 551915 to convert MS-SQL 2005 to MCOD (change of schema from dbo to dev) and worked fine. But when i am installing the SolMan through the sapinst i don´t see the option MCOD
    The only option i am confussed is
    MS SQL Server
    Database reuse  o - New Database (DBSID = SAPSID)
                             o - Use Existing Database
                                    Database ID (DBSID)
    Witch option should i choose to perform a MCOD installation? new db or use existing db (DEV)?
    Kind Regards

    Hi Merchan, if you want to use MCOD you need to select the option: o - Use Existing Database
    Database ID (DBSID) .

  • Configuration for Central Monitoring System in SAP Solution Manager.

    Hi Folks,
    I am trying to setup Central System Monitoring in SAP Solution Manager, I am following the document which mention the step by step instructions.
    There are couple of items on which  I am really confused.
    In the documentation it says to activate Background Dispatching & Central System dispatching in 000 client of Solution Manager,
    it also mentioned about creating CSMREG user, but it did not say in which client this activity needs to be performed, and there are lot many steps in which there is no mention about the client of solution manager in which we have to perform the configuration.
    Can you guys please help me to configure properly?
    One set document which I saw talks about the configuration using RZ21 and other document discuss about Configuration using System Monitoring Work Center, which one do we need to follow, are both methods are 2 different options doing the same thing, can you please clarify?
    Also, is there any document which clearly explains the setup of  Central System Monitoring in SAP Solution manager using both approaches and also to test the monitoring?
    I have SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1.
    Thanks.
    Jennifer

    You can use RZ21 or System monitoring through work center. From Solution manager 7.1, you need to use work center only. So, I would suggest you to use work center only.

  • JSM : Job Management in SAP Solution Manager - Questions ?

    01. I want to use the job request process in SAP Solution Manager. Which
    technical prerequisites need to be fulfilled to use this functionality ?
    02. I am  using a service desk other than the SAP Solution Manager service
    desk. How can the job request information be forwarded to this service desk?
    03. I  want to create a job request via a link in your companyu2019s intranet. What
    authorizations does my user need to create the job request?.
    04. What is the consequence if i assign the job in your job documentation to a
    logical component instead of a business process?
    05 How can i configure the monitoring for a job scheduled with job
    documentation?
    Rgds

    Hello,
    you should have a look into SAP note 1054005 - "FAQ: Job Scheduling Management with SAP Solution Manager" for technical requirements. If the job doc is not assigned to a business process then BPMon cannot be used for the respective job.
    All other questions should have been answered at [http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQJobSchedulingManagement|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/SM/FAQJobSchedulingManagement]

  • Configuration Guide in SAP Solution Manager

    Hi all,
    I'm reading documentation on a CRM scenario (Investigative Case Management : ICM). It says that the ICM configuration guide is assigned to the scenario 'Criminal Investigation Processing' (Public Security) in the SAP Solution Manager.
    I don't have access to the SAP Solution Manager but wanted to know if I could find this ICM configuration guide somewhere on the SAP Market Place.
    Alternatively, if I could access a SAP solution Manager system, how could I access this ICM configuration guide?
    Thanks a lot in advance

  • How to Transfer Customizing Data from SAP ECC6 to SAP Solution Manager

    Hi all,
        I want to Transfer Customizing Data (such as organization structure) from SAP ECC6 to SAP Solution Manager.Please tell me how. Thanks.

    Hi,
    The system cannot capture the customizing data from your ECC6. This is another myth with SAP Solution Manager. Solution Manager can only smoothen the process of your Project Management.
    Hope this solves your problem.
    Feel free to revert back.

  • Upgrade to SAP Solution Manager 3.2 to 7.0 EHP

    Dear Experts
    At present I am using SAP Solution manager 3.2. Now I am planing to update SAP Solution Manager 7.0.
    I am some confutation in SAP Solution Manager 7.0 and SAP Solution Manager 7.0 EHP1,
    what i do please help me.
    Regards
    Sanjay C.

    EHP1 is basically a product enhancement of 700 - i.e offers new functionality
    Usually to get to Enhancement packages you need to be operating NW2004S stack based product - in this case 4.0 (now called Solution Manager 7.0)
    I think this proposal will require first an upgrade from 3.2 to 4.0
    then after applying Enhancement Package EHP1 and following pre-reqs for both steps
    Also bearing in mind that Solution Manager is RFC dependant any change in SID, Hostname or client will require
    all RFC connections will need to be adapted
    There may also be special considerations depending on source configuration or the active Solution Manager scenarios and content
    I would take a look at following PDF for reference - it may help in the initial 3.2-->4.0 upgrade
