Upgrade of PI_BASIS 2005_1_620/16 in 4.7 to ECC 6.0 Upgrade

We are currently upgrading our Enterprise 4.7x200 system to ECC 6.0 using the SR3 upgrade CD's. In the BIND_PATCH phase the system is reporting:
WARNING: PI_BASIS - selected package level is 15, equivalence level is 16
We have previously implemented PI_BASIS 2005_1_620 SP 16 in the system and it's not complaining that in order to successfully upgrade to 2005_1_700 we should go to SP 16 as well as part of the upgrade, however SP 16 for this release is not out yet so we can't include the SP in the upgrade.
Our list currently shows...
SAP_BASIS <none> 0015 0014 15
SAP_ABA <none> 0015 0014 15
PI_BASIS <none> 0016 0014 15

SAP so far has responded that we need to wait until the SP16 is released, but this won't occur until the end of November as far as we can tell. Waiting would delay the GoLive for the upgrade almost a year.
They also suggested to revert to a version of our system that does not contain 2005_1_620 SP16, however this is not possible, as this SP has already moved to production and restoring the database would result in data loss.
My most recent questions back to them, which I'm hoping someone here might be able to answer for me are....
1) When is the next SP for PI_BASIS 2005_1_700 being made available.
2) Is is possible to upgrade PI_BASIS 2005_1_470 to PI_BASIS 2006_1_470 prior to starting the upgrade and will we run into the same problems.
3) It appears that PI_BASIS 2005_1_470 SP 16 contains only two objects... LIMU CLSD /SCMB/CL_DF_DOCUMENT & LIMU CPUB /SCMB/CL_DF_DOCUMENT. What would the impact be if we simply continued the PREPARE phase (ie, responded IGNORE to the warning message)?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
Please check the following websites.
1. http://service.sap.com/enterprises.
2. http://service.sap.com/sp-stacks--> search for SAP R/3 4.7E of PI_BASIS pulg ins.
3. No issues of those two objects.Once you have done upgrade PREPARE phase is successfull, almost upgrade is successfully.

Upgrade to PI_BASIS, 2006_1_700

I need to load support pack SAPKW0015, a prerequisite is to upgrade to PI BASIS 2006_1_700. When i try to do the upgrade i get a message that SAPKIPYM05 is a prerequisite. I cannot find support pack SAPKIPYM05 but only SAPKIPYM01 - 04.
Please help

Yes Paul u r right that we cannot find support pack SAPKIPYM05 but only SAPKIPYM01 - 04.
This is the reason for it: All corrective software packages, for SAP NetWeaver 2004s and SAP Business Suite 2005 and beyond that are delivered after April 2nd, 2007 will ONLY be available via SAP Solution Manager's Maintenance Optimizer.
U can't do it through download manager directly. Also , it is not showing SAPKW0015 support package in
service market place.
I think u have to configure the maintenance optimizer for it .

Check the Transportatation Logs in STMS for the programs/screens and check whether they are successfully tranported or not?
Because some times we get Dynpro errors for transportation of the screens.

From the OP: "My old computer got a virus and when that happened all my music was lost. "
They don't have the music on their computer so they cannot transfer the iTunes folder, from the computer to their iPod and then to the new computer. And if they try to enable disk use on the iPod it will erase all the music that is on it. The method you cited is moving the files in a data format using the iPod as a flash drive. It doesn't work if they are in music format. That is why I suggested Yamipod.

I recently upgraded my OS to Lion 10.7.4. I also just upgraded from a 1st Generation Time Capsule to a 4th Generation Time Capsule. I have an Airport Express (Version A1264) that I formerly used to extend my wireless network. AE no longer works.

I have downloaded Airport Utility 5.6 to try and configure, but with no luck.

TC first gen was not simultaneous dual band. So.. it's probably best to factory reset your extreme and then tell it to extend again.

Windows 7 upgrade: discs will include the option for a 32 to 64-bit upgrade via a clean install?

I would like to know whether the Lenovo Windows 7 upgrade discs will include the option for a 32 to 64-bit upgrade via a clean install? I called Mentor today and was told the answer is no, but I was hoping someone here could tell me differently.
If "no" is truly the answer, I would like to voice my complaint: The upgrade discs from Microsoft (i.e. the retail upgrade discs) include both the 32 and 64-bit versions, so I don't completely understand why Lenovo's upgrade program doesn't offer the same thing. I purchased my T500 in August, and back then Vista Ultimate 64 was not offered, so I chose Vista Ultimate 32 thinking that I could later upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate 64. This assumption was based off of the info. on Microsoft's website indicating that all upgrades would contain the 32 and 64-bit versions. I even customized my computer with 4 gigs of RAM thinking that I could take advantage of the extra gig once I installed Windows 7 64.
I don't understand what Lenovo or Mentor Media have to gain by restricting a 32 to 64-bit install. I voiced this opinion to Mentor Media over the phone, who responded by saying that I should be happy since I am receiving a "free" upgrade. I don't think this is an accurate assessment for two reasons: (1) I had to pay $17.03 for shipping, and I still haven't received the upgrade and (2) The total cost of my computer was almost $3,000, and the purchase was made a mere few weeks before Windows 7 was released. $3,000 is a lot of money. I waited for the details of the Windows 7 Upgrade Program to be announced BEFORE purchasing my machine. When I finally bought my computer I accounted Windows 7 into the price I was paying. In addition, when I bought this computer I did so expecting good customer service as a given. Not providing a 64-bit upgrade without a rational explanation as to why does not qualify as appropriate customer service.
As most of you know, 4 gigs of RAM is useless with a 32-bit OS. Also, NOW Lenovo is building new T500s with the option of having Windows 7 Ultimate 64 (why wasn't Vista Ultimate 64 offered when I bought my computer???).  And the price for choosing Windows 7 Ultimate 32 is EQUAL to the price for choosing Windows 7 Ultimate 64, which proves that there is no cost difference. I just want to know what Lenovo has to gain by denying customers a 64-bit upgrade? There would really be no additional cost since as I mentioned before, Microsoft's retail upgrade includes the 32 and 64-bit OS on one disc. If anything I would think that it's costing Lenovo money to strip the 64-bit install from the upgrade discs.
Can anyone please address my problems? Do you think there is anyone at Lenovo I could contact to voice my opinions? I have been a loyal Thinkpad customer for over 5 years now, and I expect better from Lenovo. Thank you for reading!
moderator note: core question add to title, as stated in the forum rules and it will help others too answer your questions.

Is there any way to request a 64-bit OEM? Why should Lenovo care whether I want a 32-bit or 64-bit as long as it's the same edition (Ultimate edition)?
if your system shipped with a 32-bit version of vista then you will be sent 32-bit windows 7 upgrade media.   the reason for this is two-fold.
first, because this is upgrade media, it's impossible to install a 64-bit version of windows over a 32-bit version.   doing so would require a clean installation and upgrade media simply won't allow this.   this is the case with retail media, too.   if you had 32-bit vista installed and wanted to upgrade it to 64-bit using retail media, you'd have to wipe your system or set up a dual-boot.
second, the COA (certificate of authenticity) on the bottom of your system is for vista.   because of this, your new license is of an upgrade from vista to 7.   this is how microsoft licenses it and it is their policy, not lenovo's.   microsoft's policy with OEMs is that you must install vista first, then upgrade to 7 (unless, of course, you purchased your system native with 7 on or after the 22nd).   since your original lenovo preload is of a 32-bit OS, the issue becomes circular and you'll have to refer again to the first reason.
i understand your frustration and wish this stuff were made easier for everyone.   it's repetative reading post after post of people with 4GB installed who don't understand the limitations of a 32-bit environment. i wish both manufacturers and users switched to 64-bit OSes sooner. the same thing happened when the industry went from 16-bit windows 3.11 to 32-bit windows NT4/95 and limitations went from 16KB all the way up to 4GB (which, in 1995, no one thought we'd ever exceed).   the difference is that people were complaining on BBSes over 14.4k modems instead of on GUI-based forums using broadband connections.   times sure have changed.

You need to purchase the 10.6 Operating Disks, as 10.6 is not downloadable. You can purchase these disks from the on-line apple store - http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard.
Also, make sure that your computer can in fact be upgraded to the newer OS version. Check your computers model and year - - https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do.

Hard Drive warning when upgrading to Mountain Lion. 2nd try and I was able to upgrade. Software update for IPhoto, had problems restarting. Do I need my hard drive checked

Yes.
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys as your computer restarts.
When you see a white screen with an Apple logo in the middle, you can release the keys.
Click Disk Utility, and then click Continue.
In the list at the left, select the item you want to repair. (Be sure to select an item that’s indented to the right in the list, not an item at the far left.)
Click First Aid.
If Disk Utility tells you the disk is about to fail, back it up and replace it. You can’t repair it.
Click Repair Disk.
If Disk Utility reports that the disk appears to be OK or has been repaired, you’re done.
Otherwise, you may need to do one of the following steps.
If Disk Utility can’t repair your disk or it reports “The underlying task reported failure,” try to repair the disk or partition again. If that doesn’t work, back up as much of your data as possible, reformat the disk, reinstall Mac OS X, and then restore your backed-up data.
If you continue to have problems with your disk, it may be physically damaged and need to be replaced

A 15" mid-2009 MBP RAM specifications are: 204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
As has been pointed out, OWC is an excellent source for Mac compatible RAM. Crucial is another first rate source for Mac RAM. RAM from either vendor will work just as well as any purchased from Apple with the bonus of being less expensive and having a lifetime guarantee.

SAP R/3 4.6 C to ECC 6.0 Upgrade using CU &UC method- Unicode conversion

Basis Gurus
   I am working on upgrade from R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0.
ECC 6.0 upgrade completed( still in non Unicode). Now I am in the process of Unicode conversion.
I have used following methods for the upgrade.
1. Combined Upgrade & Unicode conversion(CU & UC)
2. Resource minimized( as I am doing it in Sandbox).
As I understand I need to perform the DB export and Import now for the unicode conversion.
According to the Upgrade document, First I need to run Export using R3load in ECC6.0(Non unicode)
and then install Unicode system and import the same data file.
My understanding was, when I choose, Resource minimized, I need to run Export and import
in the same system.
Can you please help me , whether I need another Unicode system for import ??
Graham

Hi,
Dont get confused with upg strategy and unicode conversion.
In general Upgrade strategy (either downtime-minimized/resource minimized)
In unicode conversion you have export/import(exp/imp) of data concept
In CU&UC approach you have to do in a streach to complete migrate from old release to new realease ECC 6.00.
Using database independent (sapinst only) or Using database dependent (migration monitor or Distribution monitor)
It can be done in 2 ways.
If you dont have addtional server for unicode conversion
       1)you can either do exp on same hardware and take bakup and do import using the exp dump.
       2)Do exp on one server and prepare your target empty database on another server and complete imp of data.
Hope this is clear.

Vamshi.

Upgrade from SAP R/3 4.7 to SAP ECC 6.0 with PSCD and TFA

Hello!
I have to upgrade an SAP R/3 4.7 to SAP ECC 6.0.
We have SAP FI/CO, PSM, IM, FI-AA, PS, with PSCD (FI-CA) as well the special taxes component TFA.
Is there some special procedures for the the Upgrade with this components (PSCD and TFA)?
Is there some documentation for the special Uograde procedure as well the normal procedure?
We use Windows with Oracle.
Can some one

PSCD is in ERP a Business function set - see 957295 - PSCD: Renaming PUBLIC_SERVICES business function set, the upgrade should automatically take care that activation.
Is TFA the tax extension for Ireland? If yes, then the same should be true here.

Upgrade from SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 to ECC 6.0

Hi experts,
I am currently trying to build some knowledge for my final project. (Working as an apprentice in computer science atm)
Main goal of the project is to upgrade our dev system to ECC 6.0.
As far as I understand it, ECC 6.0 ONLY works with NetWeaver 7.0. Do I need to upgrade to NW7 before I upgrade to ECC 6.0 or is there a all-in-one package, which upgrades both at once?
I browsed through a few upgrade guides but didn't really find an explaination I could understand...
Could someone describe the basic steps for such an upgrade? (Like: Copy System - Upgrade NW - Install Components....)
Kinda desperate
Thanks in advance!
Sandro Bollschweiler
P.s.: I hope I used the right Forum for my question...

Hi,
When you upgrade to SAP ERP 6.0 (ECC 6.0), the underlying technology within the SAP R/3 4.7 system is automatically upgraded to the SAP NetWeaver 7.0 version. It is one upgrade;
SAP R/3 4.7 -
> upgrade -
> SAP ERP 6.0
SAP Web AS -
> SAP NetWeaver 7.0
The upgrade guides are you best place for information. The SAP ERP 6.0 has the steps to follow and all requirements.
For installations, please see the aptly named installation guide title "Master guide - SAP ERP 6.0". Both the upgrade and installation guides are available at service.sap.com/instguides.
For system copy info, see the SDN page: System Copy and Migration
There is some demo examples here too
All the best,
Mike.

Upgrade project : from SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0 by using SAP Data Services

Hi All,
My client is upgrading from SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0
We are planning to use SAP Data Services(Data Integrator) in the upgrade plan from SAP R/3 4.6C to ECC 6.0 for Data Migration.
we have no idea whether we can use this SAP Data Services(Data Integrator) in SAP upgrade data migration.
The bottom line is we have to make use this Data Services (Data Integrator) product in our upgrade plan for Data Migration.
Please tell us if anybody already used it such kind of scenario in a data migration project with Data Services(Data Integrator).
If we can use Data Service(Data Integrator) what are the pros and cons in using this Data Services(Data Integrator).
Thank You,
Ashok

My opinion is you would want to utilize SAP tools to port the data - our SAP BASIS administrator is out this week but we can provide exact tool names when he returns. ELM (External List Management), IDOC are some of the tools.
You could use DS/DI to export, cleanse, deduplicate the records prior to importing with SAP tools if that is your end goal.
We also offer a data quality tool that extends DS/DI to cleanse/deduplicate name/address records as they are entered into the system. It also comes with batch tools to cleanse/dedup the entire systems name/address information. See Data Quality Management for SAP for further details.

We have alreacy checked note 1002147, which clearly states that we have to include SAPK-523EXINVIRSAHR in the upgrade. SAP_HR is part of the upgrade.
We have included SAP_HR and other Support Package as per the queue generated by Solution Manager, but we did not include VIRSAHR & VIRSANH Packages until we got to this phase. We then included these support packages in eps\in directory, but we are now getting this error now.
Any ideas?
Regards
Chandu

Hi
This is what the solution provided by SAP Support:
Quote:
we have finally found the problem, it's a bug in the package upload
functionality used by the upgrade. The consequence of this bug is that
Support Packages whose EPS files (.PAT files) have a certain string in
the name, namely the string 0000000 after the _ and before .PAT
extension, are not properly uploaded to the ABAP system and hence are
not visible or known to the upgrade.
This bug will be fixed in the next upgrade tool fix, but in the meantimeyou can use the following workaround:
Check your EPS/in directory after the CAR/SAR Archives of the SPs are
extracted and rename all .PAT and .ATT files, which have a name like
*_0000000.PAT (or *_0000000.ATT), by changing the string 0000000 to
9000000. For example, for the VIRSANH SP SAPK-52302INVIRSANH rename the
file VS30020106486_0000000.PAT to VS30020106486_9000000.PAT
Afterwards, the upgrade will upload the informations about the SP
properly and the SP can be included into the upgrade.
Files:
31/01/2007 07:32 329 VS30020106486_0000000.ATT
31/01/2007 07:32 554,073 VS30020106486_0000000.PAT
If these two files are renamed to e.g.
VS30020106486_9000000.ATT
VS30020106486_9000000.PAT
the affected VIRSANH SP2 is uploaded correctly by the upgrade
functionality and the SP inclusion of the VIRSANH SPs works.
Sorry, as of now I cannot promise you a date when the tool fix will be
available. I have found this bug only today in the evening (german time)and will discuss this with the responsible colleagues tomorrow.
Afterwards, I will know more...
Unquote:
Hope this helps. We have decided against upgrading to 530_700 as it will involve upgrading GRC system and also new version has lot of new functionalities, which we like explore it after the ECC upgrade.
Also, I would not suggest deleting VIRSAHR as all the config and customising done for VIRSAHR will be lost.
