Solution Manager Enterprise Edition upgrade slow

Question

Hi
I am performing SOMAN 7.0 upgrade to Enterprise edition by upgrading kernel 701 and SP stack 18. I have already upgraded the kernel and java stack and now in the process of upgrading ABAP. I am expereincing really slow performance of this upgrade. I have checked tp and R3trans version which is uptodate as I updated kernel. I cant see any problem with CPU utilization as well swapping. I checked the SLOGs and there are no alerting errors. I see its moving and its very slow. I am just wondering if any of you guys experienced this - is this normal since this is a upgrade?

Answer 1

Thanks a lot, i realize the installation following the standard add-on installation procedure!
Now i have the ST-ETP
ST     400     0024     SAPKITL434     SAP Solution Manager Tool
ST-A/PI     01M_CRM570     0000     -     Application Servicetools for CRM 500 - 7
ST-ETP     100     0000     -     SAP Solution Manager Enterprise Edition
ST-ICO     150_700     0025     SAPK-1507PINSTPL     SAP Solution Manager Implementation Cont
ST-LV     100     0001     SAPK-10001INSTLV     SAP Landscape Verification Wizard
ST-SER     701_2010_1     0002     SAPKITLOS2     SAP Solution Manager Service Tools
Then don't forget to perform step 5. After the installation steps.
Step 5 says this:
5. After the installation
              To activate SAP Solution Manager Enterprise Edition, the Enterprise Addon SM_APPLM has to be activated in the IMG of the Solution Manager System. This is done via IMG activity SAP Solution Manager->Configuration->Scenario-Specific Settings->Activate Solution Manager Enhancements.
            a) In the case of ST-400 SP15-SP17
            To use Extended Tracebility in Change Request Management activate BC-Set SOLMAN40_CHARM_CONTEXT_001 in transaction SCPR20
            b) In the case of ST-400 SP18 or higher
            The activation of BC-Set SOLMAN40_CHARM_CONTEXT_001 will be done automatically.
In my spro i don't have this options->
I see the route Activate Solution Manager Enhacements in  SPRO -> Cross Scenario Settings
And in enterprise extension I only see ( SM_CRON, SM_QC_AD, SM_SSP,SM_SUPP_VAR)
I guess that this in SP24 is done automatically, but you said, that don´t forget the step 5 after installation.
update:I check for updates of SP and this add-on don´t have SP for now
