Upgrade 4.6C - ECC 5.0 stuck in phase parmvnt_shd

Performing an upgrade from SAP 4.6C to ECC 5.0 the upgrade stucks in phase PARMVNT_SHD with the same symptom as described in sapnet note 198879, however this upgrade runs on an iseries, with os level V5R3. Here is the exact message I get in the tp log :
3 ETP379Xactivating Nametab "/SAPDMC/LSCPROGS":
2 ETP399   >> Name of inactive nametab to read  : DDXTT?
2 ETP399   >> Format of inactive nametab to read: 5.0
3 ETP399 ntab export with reset DBTABPOS
2 ETP399  -
DB-ROLLBACK() -
2AETP344 sqlerror "-901" occured at location "LOC095"    (object "DDXTT?")
3 ETP379Xactivating Nametab "/SAPDMC/LSCRULE":
3 ETP399 ntab export with reset DBTABPOS
2 ETP399  -
DB-ROLLBACK() -
and so on, for all objects. TP keeps on repeating these steps, so the logfile keeps growing and the upgrade stays on the same point.
Please advise,
Kind regards,

Hi Robert,
as you see SQL0901, the problem will ly in the DB2/400. You should have a look at the joblog of this process and find out the messages before the generic message SQL0901. This should put light into the shadow ...
See you,
Volker

  • Upgrading SAP ECC 5.0 to ECC6  phase GETSYNC_PREUP_FINI_D

    I'm in process of the Upgrading SAP ECC 5.0 to ECC6 And, now it is in upgrade phase GETSYNC_PREUP_FINI_D. But, phase in GETSYNC_PREUP_FINI_D the Upgrade already runs to 24 hours.
    ============================================
    The following START modes are available:
    -  Repeat phase GETSYNC_PREUP_FINI_D to continue
       the upgrade at the point it stopped.
    -  Initialize phase GETSYNC_PREUP_FINI_D to restart
       this phase from the beginning.
    -  Initialize and run another upgrade phase
       (caution, refer to your installation guide).
    -  Exit this program.
    > repeat
    >> 2008/10/22 11:49:04  UPGRADE/SWITCH: START OF PHASE GETSYNC_PREUP_FINI_D
    The parallel running J2EE upgrade needs some more time...
    Please be patient...
    ===============================================

    What could be the problem. I can skip it and go to the next stage???
    Please help me out solution.?

    It seems that you have a combined upgrade - ABAP + Java in your system - is that right? If yes, did you start the Java upgrade in parallel?

  • CA-JVA on  the upgrade 46C to ECC 6.0 (with HR module)

    Hi experts,
    We have now finished the upgarde but ne things make me feel not good:
    In SAP  Note 316815 - CA-JVA: Upgr. R/3 Enterprise / ECC- data transfer AFVC->AFVU
    I think the transfer of those tables has not been worked fine.
    And it seems that the implementation of this note does not woks at all. I mean to transfer of the Tables (AFVC to AFVU and VSAFVC_CN to VSAFVU_CN) before the upgrade and transfer them back after the upgrade.
    Currently we have now both systems running: The Source system (the production system where the data comes from with release 4.6C) and the pilot system which has been upgraded in release ECC 6.0 (with source system data).
    Is there any possibily to recover this step without to repeat the all upgrade (after a DB copy of course)?
    Maybe export those tables?
    Thanks in advance
    HanseAtik

    I have to close it.. without answer from anyone...

  • Upgrade to BW 7.4 runs for days in phase PARMVNT_SHD - Nametab Activation

    Hi everyone,
    We are upgradeing from BW 7.01 to BW 7.4 and facing a very long runtime in the phase PARMVNT_SHD (actual phase PARMVNT_TRANS). It has been running for 3 days!
    In this phase nametab activations are taking place. The upgrade is not stuck, but there are many objects to process from table DDXTT. I have checked the following:
    1. We are using the latest SUM tool SUM 1.0 sp10
    2. We are using the latest TP and R3trans
    3. Our database is on Oracle 11g, latest patches applied and parameters are set based on SAP note recommendations
    4. The hardware is HPUX with 8 cpus and plenty of memory.
    It is just very odd that this phase takes so long and that there are so many objects to process.
    Please help if you have any information or suggestions.
    Many thanks!
    Imran

    Hi Thorsten,
    We had exactly the same issue with our dev-system, it is very small.
    It was already running for more than 72 hours and it seemed the do nothing. The log files at ../SUM/abap/tmp/ where updated once in a while but not to much action.
    After setting the new parameters and restarting the DB it is running rally fast.
    Apart from yours we changed two more.
    This is the list of parameters we changed in our system (we will be setting these back as soon as the upgrade is completed)
    db_cache_size=2G (1G)
    shared_pool_size=1600M (800M)
    shared_pool_reserved_size=70M (40M)
    pga_aggregate_target=600M (400M)
    open_cursors=20000 (1000)
    I'll give you all an update when this is completed.
    Thanks to you all.

  • EHP4 - sapephi get stuck in phase BIND_BATCH

    When I upgrade from ERP6.0 to EHP4 with sapephi I got stuck in phase
    BIND_BATCH
    The error is:
    ERROR: Unable to generate addon queue due to missing addons or support
    packages.
    Missing Support Package(s):
    (C-CEE)
    (HR-CEE)
    You need to add the missing Support Packages or to repeat the current
    step
    and change the Add-On selection in phase IS_SELECT.
    But this two component are already in our system.
    Current level for C-CEE is 110_600 / 0021
    HR-CEE is 110_600 / 0048
    I would like to update without this two component.
    In phase IS_SELECT I choose this two component on the current level.
    I was insert vendor key.
    What could be wrong?
    Thank you,
    Mirko

    Sorry for the delay .... I work on other project ...
    In the IS_SELECT phase, were you asked for the Vendor key even when you selected "Keep Version"?
    Even  when I select "Keep Version", I was asked for the Vendor Key.
    Also make sure that the Package mentioned in your XML is the same as the one extracted to your EPS/in folder. Sometimes the XML lists packages which are not available in the eps inbox. This happens when you don't use the solman to create the xml, or if the system product details are not correctly maintained in the Sol man.
    Our SOLMAN works and the packages are the same in SOLMAN as they are in the system.
    I create xml via SOLMAN .... and I don't have in xml file the C-CEE packages ...
    Maybe I should create new download for EHP4?
    Thank you,
    Mirko

    Well what do you know. Been searching for ages and now I found http://scn.sap.com/thread/706494.
    Quote from 'Sachin' :
    The issue due to an inconsistency in table DDNTT/DDNTF.
    Try and issue the following database commands.
    select * from sapr3.DDNTT where TABNAME = ' ';
    select * from sapr3.DDNTF where TABNAME = ' ';
    The first sql statement results gives 1 row. You can delete the first entry which has TABNAME as empty and then repeat the phase.
    This helped me through.

  • Upgrade - SAP will not restart during MAIN_NEWBAS/STARTSAP_NBAS phase

    We are upgrading from 4.7 to NW 7.0 (SP#5)
    SAP will not restart during the phase MAIN_NEWBAS/STARTSAP_NBAS
    We had to manually apply the kernel (NW 7.2 -#63 - NON UC). This looks OK when we calll DW -version. The T03 system will not start either through the upgrade tool or manually. There is no useful log in

    Thanks Rene, I have updated the ticket with the required information. In the mean time I am interested if anyone else had had a similar problem during an upgrade. We did have an initial error with the crtsidusr command ( setting CLASSICUSERCONCEPT + removing some of the SPCAUT) seemed to fix that. At this point the upgrade failed and we had to manually APYSAPKRN, the log shoewed it wanted the NON UC which was odd as we are including the UC in the upgrade.
    Thanks

    If you will check above logs then it is saying your parfile is not supported. Either you should migrate or un-deploy it and then upgrade.

  • "Database Upgrade" hangs at 0% during "Completing the Installation" phase

    I 'm now installing the EGRCM8.6.3.4000 environment.
    "Database Upgrade" hangs at 0% during "Completing the Installation" phase.
    I checked the grc.log, and found the following WARN and DEBUG messages.
    2012-07-20 02:40:05,544 WARN [Thread-35] DBConfigManager:1425 Database is not initialized yet.
    2012-07-20 03:31:10,412 DEBUG [el.Default (self-tuning)'] GrcConfig:2530 Could not get value for key 'grc.sso.enabled' due to data base is not ready.
    The connection to DB is OK, and the status of DB instance is open now.
    I can't figure out why the console said "Database is not initialized yet".
    Does anyone have a clue about it?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kai

    Hi yasir,
    Thanks for your response.
    I haven't finished the installation yet.
    "Completing the Installation" I mentioned in previous thread referred to the final installation phase.
    After I entered GRC URL (http://hostname:port/grc), the "Database Upgrade" screen hanged at 0% and cannot proceed.
    From the grc.log, I can read that the connection seemed OK, and the database also worked well through SQLPLUS.
    I am wondering why it happens.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Kai

  • Best upgrade path for ECC 6.0

    Hello,
    We've been stuck on the base ECC 6.0 release for quite a while.  There hasn't been management support for the time/resources necessary to implement and test any upgrades.  We also have a lot of local modifications to SAP supplied programs that we're planning on phasing out so that we keep closer to standard.  This is one of the main reasons we haven't been able to upgrade because of the effort involved in changing processes back to standard.  There was also an unwillingness on specific parts of the user base to change their processes.   We're now in a position where business and reporting requirements are going to force a system upgrade.  We also need run a unicode conversion from non-unicode at the same time.
    As we're starting the planning process we're unsure of the best path to allow us to implement future upgrades as necessary.  I see that EHP 7 runs on a basis version of Netweaver 7.40.  Is upgrading to an EHP pack for ECC 6 better than upgrading directly to 7.4?  Can the unicode conversion be done at the same time?
    I looked over previous discussions in upgrades but haven't found something that seems to match what we're looking to do.
    Thanks.

    Good Day
    As you have an ECC 6.0 system then you need to do an EHP update on the system.
    The latest is EHP7. EHP 7 is based on SAP NetWeaver 7.4 so when you update the system to EHP 7 you will be on NetWeaver 7.4
    The most important thing here is that you need to have a supported OS and DB for EHP7 installation. From EHP6 there is a need to have a higher version of OS and DB.
    Check PAM for the supported OS and DB combination.

    Regarding Unicode conversion you may read this.
    2033243 - End of non-Unicode Support: Release Details
    If you want to do the Unicode conversion then you should follow CUUC.
