Support pcck upgrade Post Validtion

Hi Experts,
we are upgrading support pack from level 19 to 21 for BW 3.5 systm , what are the post validation steps i.e testing required for any support packge upgrade.
Thanks
DB

Hi,
First prepare a test script for this.
All the testing is done to ensure that everything is working fine in the system. Two things should be taken care of. One will be that all those processes which where happening without any issues previously shoule be fine and secondly if there was some corrections that went in with this upgrade thats should also be checked.
You need to test if the extractions are working fine, data is getting loaded into targets, post load activities like activation, rollup, compression etc are successfull etc.
We test the PC chains also.
We schedule / trigger the chains and monitor them. We ensure that all the process types are happening successfully.
Also in cases where we use events/third party shceduling tools to trigger BW chains we check that out.
Executing reports to check if run time has changed or not.
Also activities like Change runs,Deletion , Selective deletion etc are done.
Also the delta queues, TRFCS, IDOCS etc are need to be monitored.

  • "Support and upgrade utility" of Multicap/Ultiboard 9 not compatible with windows installer

    Yesterday I installed Multicap 9 and Ultiboard 9 on the new computer of my collegue. We haven't got a maintenance contract. It's possible to update Multicap 9 and Ultiboard 9 once after installing it on a new computer withou a maintenance contract. First the "Support and Upgrade Utility" wants to download and install a new version (1.0.36) of itself. When this update wants to start, I got a message of the Windows Installer that the msi is incompatible with the Windows Installer. The upgrade is cancelled after this message.
    I tried to solve the problem to update Windows XP Pro SP2 to SP3, but that doesn't make sense.
    How can I solve this problem?
    Is it possible to download the update of Multicap 9 and Ultiboad 9 without the "Support and Upgrade Utility"?
    With kind regards,
    Marco.

    Hello Marco,
    thank you for your post on our webforum. I noticed some problems with the Support and Upgrade utility in the past (only on some computers). I think it is best to provide you with a new installer; it is possible to place this on a FTP server, can you contact me for this?

  • Support Pack Upgrade Strategy

    Hi Experts,
    I am trying to develop a strategy for testing SP upgrades in development and "okaying" them for migration into production.
    What steps do you normally take to ensure your system works as intended and the update is really for production?
    I would think to go through and verify all of the changes from the SAP note which contains the SP detail, but what else? It is often the case that implementing a SP has an effect on other functionality.
    Please share your thoughts and experiences.
    Thanks,
    Grace Rae

    Hi Grace,
    Firstly, this question should be posted in the Basis forums You will have more experts who dealt with these activities there.
    Regarding the support pack upgrade strategy, we would normally implement it in the test systems, and closely monitor the system performance in peak and normal hours, background jobs, and any other issues that are highlighted during the monitoring period. If there are no issues reported by the functional testing team, we will go ahead implementing it in production system.
    Hope this helps!

  • Support assistant upgrade

    A window pops up saying "Welcome to HP Support Assistant Upgrade" Then procedes to do 5 things. It only gets through 31/2 things.
    * contacting hp server- pass
    *downloading new version- pass 31187808 (100%)
    *shutting down current version- pass
    @ installing new version (this is where it is stuck)
      starting hp support assistant
    I am unable to close or even minimize this window. the only way it disappears is if I shut down my computer or force a restart, but eventually it comes back again uninvited. what do I do about it?

    The solutions mentioned by Jim in this post do not work for me. I get the same darn Welcom to HP Support Assistant upgrade. It completes the first few tasks: 1. Contactdin HP server--pass 2. downloading new verson, which it does 3. shutting down current version, but then at point #4 it states it is Installing new version, but that step NEVER completes.  It has happened at least 20 times.  I have let it run all night.  It NEVER completes.  I've called tech support once, and reached someone in the Phillipines.  Very nice guy, but didn't have a clue.  Now, the solutions mentioned by Jim in this post do not work, indeed are not possible.  There is no menu on the box.  Pullling it to the side does nothing.  CTRL ALT DEl does nothing.  It does not appear in the task manager.  IS THERE ANYONE OUT THERE WHO CAN HELP ME?  HP advertises 24 months of support, but when it comes down to it, there isn't much help.  This situation is VERY annoying.  To get rid of it, I haved to reboot.  PLEASE LET ME KNOW if anyone has a solution.

  • Questions on previous Yosemite upgrade posts

    I had the following questions on previous Yoemite upgrade posts:
    1.  how do you acquire and make a bootable thumb drive installer?
    2.  how do you boot the system in safe mode?
    3.  what applications and versions of these are Yosemite compatible?
    4.  if an upgrade is required how do you get it?  I realize that this will be application dependent?
    Thanks.

    I would go with Niel's suggestion for question 1 as the program will do all the work for you.

    hi Samberl
    thanks a lot for the fast reply.
    I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop  onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
    Your suggestion sounds very promising -  I didn't know about 'cloning'.
    Yes the idea is to backup the laptop -    I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically   across to the new drive myself each day or two...
    Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb  ?   =   under the HD icon on desktop is written  : 
    " 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free  " 
    I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
    I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
    When CCC site says it backs up  the hard drive - would this  mean all my files  [over 100 gb] that are mostly  in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon,  would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ]  ?
    thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it. 
    It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!

  • Beginner question: support to HTTP POST om Oracle AS

    Hi!
    I don't know if this is a suitable forum but since i use JDeveloper and Oracle BPEL I'll try my luck here :).
    I have a Java web application built in JDeveloper and a couple of BPEL processes.
    In these processes I use Java embedding (a piece of Java code) that opens a connection to a given URL and post a XML message to this URL. I didn't have much problems creating these processes.
    Now I have to provide a support to HTTP POST on my side. Since web application and services development are quite new to me I hope someone can point me the right way to do this. The requirements I have are: I can have a single URL to which the http POSTs will be issued.
    If I understand correctly I cant use a web service since I have to enable different types of XML posts. What are my options? Can I create some kind of listener for http POSTs? Can I create a jspx that will 'wait' for http posts and than call some of mine BPEL processes? Is there a way to create a BPEL process that 'waits' for http POSTs? Are there other options.
    I'd really appreciate any pointers on this.
    Regards,
    BB.

    Frank,
    I've tried creating a Servlet listener that implements HttpSessionListener interface. Now I have two methods, sessionCreated and sessionDestroyed but I don't know where to go next. I can't find any documentation on this issue yet.
    Should I create a jspx page with form node that has method attribute set to POST or maybe I don't even need a web page? I already have a login page that has a form with method set to POSt, will this pose any kind of troubles for me?
    I apologize for any stupid questions but as I said I have no experience in doing this and las couple of days I'm searching and reading different documentation on this topic so any more pointers would be appreciated.

  • R/3 Delta queues in support package upgrade

    Hi gurus,
    Our team needs to apply a support package upgrade to our BI 7.0 (without an upgrade in R/3 source system).
    Do I need to worry about SM13 and RSA7 in my source system R/3 or just my data marts inside 7.0?
    Or do I need to empty R/3 delta queues before BI upgrade to prevent data loss?
    Best regards,
    Enric

    You may wish to take a look at below for few insights -
    OSS notes 328181 and 762951 as a prerequisites.
    Failure to follow the instructions in those notes may probably result in data loss.

  • SAP Support pack upgrade help!!!

    Dear Experts ,
    Am new into basis  . My environment is ECC6 ehp4 with solman 7.0 ehp1 .
    Right now my existing support pack stack is 19.
    When i check in solman using MOPZ it shows the target stack as 20. when i checked the components in target stack it shows only few application component patches. No Basis & abap patches.
    But i checked individually in service market place patches list . all components including application & technical components 4 more patches has been released.
    1.My doubt is did support pack upgrade should be done using support pack stack only ?.
    2.Abap & basis patches should be implemented separately based on the dependency of patches in Support pack stack ?
    Kindly help me!!!!

    Hello,
    First of all you need to make sure your ECC6.0 system product type as ECC6.0 ERP4 under Product Systems --> SAP ERP Enhancement in SMSY. Once it's done, you need to click on "Read System Data Remote" to refresh ECC system component detail. Then after check MOPZ and you should be able to see the target stack level with all components.
    Thanks,

  • SAP support pack upgrade

    Dear Experts,
    There has been a discussion with my colleagues to discontinue support pack upgrade. But we are not able to reach to any consensus. We would require your opinion on the same.
    Background of the discussion:
    Since we are using SAP-EH&S in highly customized manner, support pack causes more issues rather than improvements. Each time we have to invest lot of efforts while testing the system after support pack is applied. We have to stop all the development work for 2 months.
    I need to know:
    - What are the implications of discontinuing support pack upgrades?
    - SAP will no longer provide support for current SAP-EH&S module after 2020. What possible issues can we face if no support pack upgrade is done? I believe after 2020 other module would be used, so we are looking for only next 5 years or so.
    - Have there been any other module (highly customized) facing similar issues?
    - Do we lose support from SAP if we don’t upgrade the system?
    I tried to approach SAP as well but couldn't get a straight answer.
    Thanks,
    Apoorv Bhargava

    Dear Apoorv
    in regards of:
    What are the implications of discontinuing support pack upgrades?
    => you will never get "legal updates". A support package is not only a "fix"; but sometimes SAP is delivering new solutions based on legal topics. Good example is "SVT". This is shipped with a Support Package only; you should not never ever try to implement the more than 100 OSS notes manually
    => you will never get "error" fixes; yes you can implement one OSS after the other (if neededI but this is the wrong approach
    => if you would like to do "major upgrade" (e.g. SAP 6.0 EnhPack7) you need to go through the whole process; and only by high level SAP releases you will get the "newest" functions
    On the top only by installing SP or Upgrade you will get updates in property tree (only if you buy legal content from SAP the story would be different)
    In regards of:
    Background of the discussion:
    Since we are using SAP-EH&S in highly customized manner, support pack causes more issues rather than improvements. Each time we have to invest lot of efforts while testing the system after support pack is applied. We have to stop all the development work for 2 months.
    Be happy that you only need 2 months; in most cases more than that is needed,
    In regards of:
    SAP will no longer provide support for current SAP-EH&S module after 2020. What possible issues can we face if no support pack upgrade is done? I believe after 2020 other module would be used, so we are looking for only next 5 years or so.
    Anybody has the same situation here. After 2020 clearly SAP must deliver a solution (alternative etc.); (and you can extend maintenance period as well)
    - Have there been any other module (highly customized) facing similar issues? => I am pretty sure that SAP SD, SAP Mm etc. is the same story
    - Do we lose support from SAP if we don’t upgrade the system? = in my opinion no. But if you need to strat OSS the story is always the same: they will come back and ask you to implement SP etc.
    A lot of SAP services exists to help you in your situation. But you can help yourself. One option is;
    a.) create first a "sandbox" with current SAP ERP release and prepare EHS
    b.) then compare your set up to standard set up and list" differencies"
    c.) start of analyzing: what can be done to get "closer" to standard
    d.) start with "quick win" standardization and the generate a list of "subprojects" to take care the other differences so that may be after a short time (may be only one year) you are much closer to SAP standard
    In regards of:
    Since we are using SAP-EH&S in highly customized manner => as long as you are using only customizing you are in "Standard". There should be less problems in update/upgrade; only if you have adpated SAP codings etc. you have a problem.

  • Support pack Upgradation

    Hi Gurus
    I have couple of doubts on my Transports.We are upgrading support packs on BI 7.0.
    They upgraded on Development System and They are planning to upgrade support packs on Testing and Production System.I want to transport from Develoment to Testing System.
    What would be the effect on Transport if I transport objects from Dev System to Testing System when they are on different Support packs.Can I migrate the Objetcs or not .If so what would be the effect.Please let me know.
    Could any one let meknow how to apply SAP notes once the basis apply Support Pack Upgrade.I need to do this down the road.Any help will be appreciatable and assign points.
    Thanks,
    Suryam.

    Hi,
    Usually SAP notes are applied by the BASIS team. Notes are nothing but code changes provided by SAP for the std SAP programs.
    Also in case you the transports, I would do thorough checking as patch levels are different on both the systems and the functionality might be different. For ex. if a patch upgrade came with some new features in query designer and those features were used in development, they'll not be available in test system after you transport as the patch levels are different. After patch upgrade to the test system, you might have to retransport.
    Cheers,
    Kedar
