Upgrade planned

Hi all,
I am currently looking to upgrade our systems 4.7 to ECC 6.0. At the same time I would need to upgrade the hardware as well. I have read many notes and documentation on the area, but still I am not sure on how this is best done practically.
Would I need to set up the old system on the new hardware and create a system copy from the old boxes before the upgrade. Is there other ways to achive this upgrade?
The server environment today runs on W2k and MSSQL2000 in 32 bit. The new server environment would be W2003 and  MSSQL2005 in 64 bit.
What do I need to consider due to the system running and how many servers do I need to host the new systems. Today I have 2 serveres. 1 running DEV and TST and one running PROD. Will NW and Solution manager need a seperate server?
regards
me

ask your hardware vendor to prepare a quote for you. they usually do this for free.

  • I bought years ago CS6 - Design Standard and an expensive MLP New Upgrade Plan in order to upgrade the software after. Can I upgrade to CC, or I simply lost my money?

    I bought a license to use Creative Suite 6 - Design Standart almost two years ago. In the same ocasion, I bought a MLP New Upgrade Plan, wich were very expensive, but gave me the wright to upgrade my CS6-Design Standart for new versions within two years. I thoght I made good business, buying an Upgrade Plan that allowed me to have further versions of my software for two years without adicional purchase. What happens is that I can't find a way to upgrade my CS6-Design Standard Suite to a CC Suite. Did I simply threw my money away purchasing the MLP New Upgrade Plan, wich never alowwed me to do any upgrade, or is there a way, fairly, to use my Upgrade Plan that is almost expiring to have access to Creative Cloud?

    You are on Windows 2000, you do not have a "Firefox" button, and should consider yourself to be fortunate in that you still have menus and don't have to do anything to get the menus back instead of the "Firefox" button. (The same applies to Windows XP users).
    Use the "File" menu to get to Import. You are not on Windows 7 or Vista, and don't have to put up with the nonsense added for Aero.
    If you want the "Firefox" button you can get it with View -> toolbars -> (uncheck) Menu Bar. The menu bar and the "Firefox" button were supposed to be mutually exclusive (which is impossible in some cases without being incompatible).
    Once you are using the "Firefox" button ...
    Use the "Alt" key to view the menu bar (temporarily) containing File, Edit, View, History, Bookmarks, Tools, and Help. On Windows 7 and Vista, the menu bar was hidden by default in Firefox 4 and above. These menu items are more or less available under the "Firefox" button which has the most used of the built-in Firefox menu items available in a different format.
    To get back to having menus again. "Firefox" button -> Options (second column) -> (check) Menu Bar
    You can make '''Firefox 7.0.1''' look like Firefox 3.6.*, see numbered '''items 1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 thru 8.0, look like 3.6)]. ''Whether or not you make changes, you should be aware of what has changed and what you have to do to use changed or missing features.''

  • SCOM 2012 R2 Upgrade Plan Discussion

    Dear Experts,
    Currently I have a RMS and one MS Server with SCOM 2007 R2 in my Test Environment (Windows 2008 R2).
    Now, The Upgradation plan is below and please correct me if I am wrong.
    SCOM 2007 R2 CU4 --> SCOM 2012
    SCOM 2012  --> SCOM 2012 SP1
    SCOM 2012 SP1 --> SCOM 2012 R2.
    So we need to purchase of three types of SCOM 2012 versions S/W or else we can simply download those versions from Microsoft ?
    Please provide me the complete process of this Migration cycle.
    Saravana Raja

    Hi Saravana:
    Upgrading to System Center 2012 – Operations Manager is supported from Operations Manager 2007 R2 CU4, or from the latest available CU. See
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh476934.aspx.
    As for upgrading from SCOM 2012 to SCOM 2012 SP1 to SCOM 2012 R2, MVP Marnix Wolf is clear that you need to perform each upgrade step separately:
    http://thoughtsonopsmgr.blogspot.com/2013/07/upgrade-paths-to-system-center-2012-r2.html. The "complete process" would consists of performing the upgrade for each version one after the other, again, just as you put in your plan.
    You do not need to purchase any additional software, but you will need to download the 3 versions as you described from Microsoft volume license site or other media source.

  • Can Apple offer cheap upgrade plans to people who bought iPad 3rd Gen within 3 months to upgrade their device to the 4th gen?!

    I decided to get iPad 3rd gen because my iPad 2 wasn't working so well after using it for 1+ year and I really need iPads for work. I got it not more than 2 months ago. I felt being cheated. Although Apple didn't promise the one year thing, but 7 months is just too ridiculous. .
    I know it is impossible to ask Apple to replace our 3rd gen with 4th gen, but if they offer some upgrade plans, I would be more comfortable with this. If so, I hope that they wouldn't charge more than USD $150 to upgrade.
    Trading in old devices is important to me because I have no income as a student but I just have to get newer devices to make sure they have a higher performance. Dissolving the iPad 3rd gen is not a good idea since the resell value will decrease instantly.
    Other than that, my iPad is a bit laggy comparing to what I felt when it was on iOS 5, they shouldn't make a new device to solve this problem, they should improve their software
    In the incident, Apple is just being irresponsible to long term supporters like me, I hope that they will provide us satisfying solutions.
    (My English might not be perfect because my native language is Chinese, hope you guys know what I mean)

    You can check macrumors, there were rumors and they were pretty much squashed the begininng of October, so waiting a month, sure. Usually mac is transpereant enough that its knwn 3-4 months ahead of time that a refresh is coming, I site the release of th Ipad 2 gen i was getting for my daughter, we waited until her bday and got it in March at launch. Not this time. This was a curve ball, ezpecially 4 months ago when I bought mine. I have called Apple everyday, wil call again today to vent frustration, and I am noticing some slowed response on my ipad 3 and would assume why the fast refresh, i have been asking for a path to upgrade for $100 with a well tken care of ipad 3, under apple care etc. Don't know if I will get it, but wont get it for sure if I dont ask. I already was issued a $100 credit on another purchase, which I may be using soon.

  • What happens to volume customers with upgrade plans?

    We're a nonprofit TLP customer with a few dozen licenses for the Creative Suite, InDesign standalone, stuff like that. When we buy new licenses, we always buy the upgrade plan. And we keep those upgrade plans current - management loves the fact that we can predict costs for Adobe software two years ahead.
    Linked PDF says:
    Make your software budget more predictable
    Predicting timelines and prices for upgrades of your current software licenses can be challenging, but budgeting for Adobe upgrades doesn’t have to be. By investing in Upgrade Plan, your organization can lock in a set price for all future upgrade licenses that are released during the length of your Upgrade Plan coverage period.* This takes the guesswork out of software budgeting and buys you tomorrow’s software at today’s prices. For a percentage of the license cost, your organization gets access to the latest Adobe products, which streamlines software management and stabilizes budget forecasts. In addition, Upgrade Plan costs can be paid up front or through annual payments, allowing flexibility in the purchasing process.
    I've not been able to find any information about what happens to our upgrade plan. (And when I called Adobe CS, I was disconnected after 70 minutes on hold. And when I tried CS chat, they told me to call in.) Has anything been posted or said about institutions with upgrade plan coverage?

    Actually, Jeff, I wound up coming here and posting this as a result of my conversation with my sales rep. I have also already contacted Adobe Volume CS and found some answers - answers that were, notably, nowhere in the FAQ.
    To be honest, I'd come back here to mark Arjit's response as "helpful" as that is obviously what he was trying to be. I can also see why his answer could be marked as correct, as this question should (his term) be covered in the FAQ, although it is not.  However, your answer is also correct - there is no one global answer for all AVL customers still covered by an Upgrade Plan, and that each volume customer will need to contact the Adobe Volume Licensing Team.
    Seeing as random internet people have been emailing me out of the blue for years with difficult questions on the strength of an answer marked as "correct" on these forums, I wanted to ensure that none of the AVL customers who were searching for answers found this conversation with a search, and then went and read the entire FAQ over and over again without finding any answers, as I did.

  • Is there an upgrade plan from 3G till 3Gs?

    I bought my iphone 1 year ago here in Sweden. There is no info yet about the 3GS phone on their site,but what is the general upgrade plan? Do I have to return my old phone to get the new one? Or can an I give my phone to someone else who can use it with their own chip while I use my new phone with my own contract? How does this work?

    The link was only to give you an idea on options available here. In brief they are:
    Option 1 - wait until eligible for an upgrade.
    Option 2 - purchase the iPhone 3G S on Pay & Go from 19 June.
    Option 3 - pay the remainder of their monthly line rental in one payment and sign a new Pay Monthly contract.
    Makes you sick, done it?

  • Adobe shutting out TLP customers from Upgrade Plan

    I am a network administrator for a small company of about 10 million dollars per year.  We have a copy of Adobe CS6, InDesign and 12 licenses of Adobe Acrobat.  For the last 6 or so years we have purchased the Upgrade Plan though the Transactional Licence Program for the Creative Suite and InDesign.  I am mystified why Adobe is now shutting out smaller customers like use from being able to subscribe to the upgrade plan?
    The changes in licensing over the last 6 or so months have been very negative for us.  We feel like we are being forced into buying upgrades instead of being able to be on a predictable upgrade plan.  I hate to say it, but Adobe's licensing is now worse than Microsoft's.  At least MS is willing to offer any company Software Assurance at any level.
    We also use QuarkXpress in additon to InDesign.  I guess I will need to start pushing that we use Quark instead of Adobe. 
    I hate to be bitter, but this really leaves me feeling screwed by Adobe.

    They also stated the "new" features being released on the Cloud would be released to all users in the next full release. However now there is no next release for perpetual license holders other than the cloud going forward. This is blatant misinformation as well, information they no doubt knew but withheld to ensure further sales of CS6 in the meantime. Very shady practices on Adobe's part, many efforts seem to be made to boost sales of CS6 even when they knew what was happening behind the scenes with their decisions that are now detrimental to many customers going forward.

  • Is this seriously the new upgrade plan??

    http://www.androidcentral.com/verizon-changing-its-upgrade-policy-youll-have-wait-20-months-new-phone
    if this is the new upgrade plan for users it is absolutely ridiculous. as someone who likes to upgrade to a new phone every year, and therefore renew my contract every year, this makes zero sense. why would vzw want to prevent me from buying the newest device if i choose? i know my phone is going to be obsolete within a year anyways. 
    AND getting rid of the new every two?? what's that about? wasn't that a good way to keep customers upgrading and therefore paying the monthly subscription fees? getting rid of it is a good way to **bleep** off customers who have be loyal for so long.

    SydneyK wrote:
    Oh, wow, I didn't see this one coming. Thanks for posting.
    The annual upgrade was the only reason I'd even consider a two-year contract. Not because I couldn't use the same phone for 20 months, but because of the one-year manufacturer's warranty. If you don't want to throw away money on insurance, at least you could upgrade after the warranty ended if something happened to your phone.
    This confirms my belief in paying the extra $70 for a one-year contract, like Spiral said.
    (LOL at the positive spin.)
    We have to wait and see if the $70 differencial remains or grows larger...... 
    I wanted a frown wink but there is not one

  • Hyperion Planning upgrade issue : Upgrade planning 9.3.1 to 11.1.1.3

    Hi,
    I am getting the below given erro while upgrading hyperion planning from 9.3.1 to 11.1.1.3
    I have done the following steps in sequence to achive the upgrade:
    1. Created a planning application "plantest" on 9.3.1 , created hireachy and "create Database" from planning to make the essbase outile.
    2. took the backup of planning db repository from 9.3.1 using expdp in a dumpfile.
    3. migrated the essbase from 9.3.1 to 11.1.1.3
    4. logged on to 11.1.1.3 AppWizard to create the similar planning application with the same name "plantest".
    5. made a note of HSP_USER 50001 sid on 11.1.1.3
    6. stopped the planning on 11.1.1.3
    7. imported the 9.3.1 dump on 11.1.1.3 using the following command :impdp system/password DIRECTORY=TEST_DIR DUMPFILE=PLANNING_FINAL.DMP TABLE_EXISTS_ACTION=REPLACE

  • Overage Fees - Upgrade Plan and then change back for only $20 - and no change to contract?

    I am on the Nationwide 700 minute family plan with two lines and finally on a month to month contract.  Just saw on my account that I am over my allowance by 67 minutes ($30.15) and I still have five days until my billing cycle ends.  
    I called VzWireless and the lady on the phone said that there is a way to minimize the overage expense this one time.  According to her, if I "upgrade" my voice plan to the 1400 minute plan before the 21st of the month I will end up not having to pay any overage fees on the peak hours (at least $30 as of writing this with five days to go) and would only have to pay the difference in plans which works out to be an extra $20.  She also said she could "future date" an order to move my plan back to my normal 700 minutes after the bill is issued on the 21st so that I would not have to maintain the more expensive plan.
    Frankly, this sounds too good to be true -  I mean why wouldn't every Tom, Dick, and Harry that goes over on their minutes do this then?  Maybe I am the only person who has not figured this out?  The whole reason I am over on minutes this month is because I got caught in a Directv/U-Verse teaser scam and had to call each company's customer support lines and ended up on hold for hours!  Needless to say I am skeptical...
    Is there any merit to this?  Is it true that I can change my plan without renewing to another two year contract?  Are there hidden fees? Can I trust Verizon?  

    Yes, this is true.
    You can change your plan to the 1400 minute plan prior to the end of your billing cycle. Just make sure that this change is "backdated" to the beginning of the billing cycle you are currently in, so that you have those 1400 minutes available to you for this entire cycle. You will then not go over your allowance.
    After your current billing cycle ends, you can change your minute plan back to the 700 min plan.
    I don't know if I would want the CS rep to do both changes at the same time, as this leads to more likely of a mixup which may impact you in a negative way. Might be better to do one at a time.
    Edit: This practice has been around for awhile. Unlike you, several people who have this service pointed out just like to complain that Verizon should just do this without being asked so that they would never incur overages. Those same people would then just complain that their bill increased without them giving permission to increase their minute allowance.

  • Query ON ORACLE AND OAS UPGRADE PLAN

    Currently we are running Oracle Server 7.3.4 Under Unix (SunOS5.7) with access to a Sybase 12.5.0.1 via Oracle-Sybase Transparent Gateway 4.1.1.0.0.
    For the web services, we use OAS 4.0.8.1. Our web applications are based on Javascript and Oracle PL/SQL to generate HTML.
    We plan to upgrade the Oracle Server from 7.3.4 to Oracle 9iAS version 9.2.0.1.
    Our quetions are :
    1) Is it necessary to upgrade OAS 4.0.8.1 to Oracle 9iAS?
    1a)If we have to upgrade then which version of 9iAS (9.0.2, 9.0.3, 9.0.4)is compatible?
    1b)what change, if any, do we have to make to our exisiting applications(Javascript, HTML and PL/SQL-generated HTML) (we understand that the application logic would not have to be change in any
    way. Is this so?)
    2) Are Oracle Server 9i and Oracle 9iAS Application Server compatible with the SunOS5.7 Unix or is an upgrade to a later version necessary?
    3) Do we need to upgrade the Oracle-Sybase Transparent Gateway if we upgrade the Oracle Server to Oracle9i and if so, to what version?
    Please confirm that Oracle9.2 has a Gateway to Sybase 12.5.0.1 that will support the features of 7.3.4 gateway (i.e it is downward compatible to 7.3.4
    gateway).

    Not real sure if this is doable or would help, but perhaps you can load the access table into an Oracle Global Temporary Table? See http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/8i/TemporaryTables.php (and google on it). I think I'm assuming your 11 hour query had something to do with shovelling a bucketload of data to the access side, perhaps if you could show us the plan on the Oracle side that access was generating to get the Oracle data there might be a different answer.
    Oftentimes cross-db tools won't use Oracle features like analytics, or do slow-by-slow row processing where a short procedure could do things within the Oracle sql engine and return data in larger arrays.
    Sometimes mass data cleansings benefit from using server side tools outside of the db. Do you have the data from before it was loaded to Oracle? What Oracle platform are you on?

  • Will i lose my double data 4 gig for price of 2 gig if i renew/upgrade plan and phone?

    i currently have a plan expiring in a week and would like to purchase an upgrade 4g phone from amazon but i have double data, 4 gig for 2 gig 30$ on my plan and dont want to lose this special..... will i lose my 4 gig data for 30$ if i renew and upgrade a phone purchased through amazon b/c its been like 50/50 in what ive been told from verizon reps thus far

        Great questions afterhrsd! When you upgrade to a new phone at a subsidized price with a new 2 year contract you must select a plan from the ones http://bit.ly/T8w8iM currently available. You can keep your calling/data plan unchanged if you upgrade at full retail price. You may even qualify for our Device Payment Program http://vz.to/ZILXBT to upgrade at full price without a big upfront expense.
