Question regarding Upgrading from Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition

DB version:10gR2
We want to upgrade from Standard Edition to Enterprise Edition.
In the following documention
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14238/intro.htm#BABFBJCC
It talks about
Deinstall the Standard Edition server software.I don't understand what they mean by DeInstall the software.
Question 1.
By 'DeInstall' , they mean , use DeInstall Products in the Welcome screen of Oracle Universal Installer and Remove the chosen OUI Home.Right?
Question 2.
If i 'Deinstall' (ie. remove the software), all the binaries are lost. Right? So what is the point of having just the data files?

Question 2.
If i 'Deinstall' (ie. remove the software), all the binaries are lost. Right? So what is the point of having just the data files?Because next point says install Enterprise Edition. For first get rid of old one and then install the needed one. There is no such option as upgrade in this case.

Upgrading from P3e to P6 enterprise using existing licences.

HELP !Please provide assistance especially from Primavera oracle agent to upgrade ourusing existing licences from P3e to P6 enterprise.

I can't say for certain. I can only tell you what I did.
Based on my understanding of how iMovie works, the Project file contains paths to the Event video clips in your iMovie Events, paths to the video clips in iPhoto (or Aperture), paths to music, paths to photos in iPhoto or Aperture.
One of these that can be automatically updated is to move Events to another drive within iMovie.
Another "automatic" update is to move the default iPhoto library to a different disk, but with the same name. That should still work.
However, iMovie will not make the leap from iPhoto to Aperture for either stills or videos, as far as I know.
When I switched to Aperture recently, I brought in my iPhoto photos as referenced, and left the videos in place.
Alternatively, you could bring in your iPhoto photos to Aperture Library (not referenced) but leave the iPhoto Library intact somewhere. You could delete images or clips if you were absolutely sure they were not referenced in iMovie.
I am enjoying Aperture, but it is difficult to make a clean break.

Hyper-V host server upgrade from Server 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1 to Server 2012 R2 Datacentre

We are about to upgrade our Hyper-V host servers from Server 2008R2 Enterprise SP1 to Server 2012 R2 Datacentre to take advantage of the latest Hyper-V features.
This only concerns the host servers and not the guest VMs running on the hosts (they will be upgraded next year).
This is what is running on our host servers:
Host 1
File,print & issuing CA server
Exchange 2010
SharePoint 2010
Quickbooks server
Domain controller 1
Offline CRL CA
Host 2
SQL 2008
Forefront TMG 2010
Domain Controller 2
Windows 7 client
With this is mind, I have drafted a rough action plan as follows:
Create a list of all file locations for VM memory, snapshots, virtual memory and Hyper-V config files
Document all existing system settings
Gather server information, download drivers, RAID controller and other boot drivers & firmware updates (in case the in-place upgrade fails)
Test all software media
Copy all VMs onto external data storage (NAS drive)
As part of the upgrade process we will redistribute some hard drive space i.e.
expand them to their new sizes and verify the data integrity of copied VMs by powering up each VM in a test environment
Wipe and adjust the sizes of the host partitions to accommodate the expanded VMs
Perform an in-place upgrade to Server 2012 R2 Datacenter
Check EV, services etc
Change the default locations for VM memory, snapshots, virtual memory and Hyper-V config files
Upgrade Anti-virus and other system software
Test the system
Are there any glaring omissions? Does anyone have any tips they can give me?

Hi Marco,
always do a fresh Installation of your hyper-V Hosts, you could end up doing a lot of Troubleshooting with Drivers,Addons etc.. new Installation ist way faster.
Depending if you have a Cluster or Standalone Servers there are different ways to do it.
When you have installed your 2012 R2 Hyper-V Server you just can Import the VMs from the new Location.
As far as i know VMs with snapshots are not supported, so you have to remove them before doing that move and commit the changes to the vhd files, the VM need to be offline on 2008R2 to do that.
You do not Need to Export the VMs on 2008R2, just copy it, normaly you should have all Files of a VM in one Folder.
A working Backup is always your friend on such Tasks.
When the VMs are running on Hyper-V 2012R2 do not forget to Update the Integration Services.
Make Sure your Servers Hardware are still supported with 2012R2, see Server Catalog and Support Matrix of the Vendor.
And last one, where possible and supported convert the VHDs to VHDx Disks, after testing the first boot of the VM.

After upgrade from SP2010 Foundation to Enterprise, services/features are missing

Hi
I recently upgraded the SharePoint 2010 Foundation, that was installed with TFS 2012, to Enterprise. The upgrade went through. The Products and Configuration wizard ran through to 100% without errors, however there are no Enterprise services available
on the Services on server page.
The main ones that I'm missing (that I really wanted to use) are:
Secure Store
Managed Metadata
Web analytics
SharePoint Server Search
Excel Services
These ones are there (these are non foundation as far as I'm aware)
PerformancePoint services
User Profile and User Profiles Sync
Business Data Connectivity
Also the service applications for the missing services are also missing, where as the services applications for the present services are available to be provisioned.
I've tried re-running the following commands:
Psconfig -cmd helpcollections
Psconfig -cmd services -install
Psconfig -cmd installfeatures
Psconfig -cmd applicationcontent -install
I've also run that Enable upgraded features option in Central Admin that goes through the web apps/Site collections and sites and enables all the enterprise features. That did nothing.
Any ideas?

Run:
Install-SPService
That will install all services on the farm.

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.

WAAS - Upgrade from transport to enterprise license

Hi
I have a WAE that has a Transport license, and is currently running on version 4.0.17
I need to upgrade it 4.1, and upgrade to an enterprise license (We have bought the license)
Does any1 have a documentation that shows the steps needed to upgrade from transport license to enterprise license?

Licenses are installed and managed only on individual WAE devices, not device groups. Not all licenses are supported on all devices.
To add a license from the WAAS Central Manager, follow these steps:
Step 1 From the WAAS Central Manager GUI navigation pane, choose My WAN > Manage Devices.
Step 2 Click the Edit icon next to the device that you want to modify.
Step 3 In the navigation pane, choose Admin > License Management.
Step 4 Check the check box next to each license that you want to add.
Step 5 Click Submit.
To add licenses from the CLI, you can use the license add EXEC command.
To remove licenses from the CLI, you can use the clear license EXEC command.
To display the status of all licenses from the CLI, you can use the show license EXEC command.
The setup utility also configures licenses when you first set up a new WAAS device

Search Service Application problems after upgrading from Foundation to Enterprise edition of SharePoint 2013

Hi all. I have been searching for days for a solution to a problem I am having with SP2013 Enterprise edition.
We recently upgraded from SP2013 Foundation to SP2013 Enterprise. After the upgrade, the search services are no longer working and we are receiving many application log entries indicating the following:
Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance (ea2019ef-bb9e-4efe-85ee-5d2307406f31).
Reason: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))

as well as:
Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance (ea2019ef-bb9e-4efe-85ee-5d2307406f31).
Reason: The object you are trying to create already exists. Try again using a different name.

at Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance.Synchronize()
at Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.ApplicationServerJob.ProvisionLocalSharedServiceInstances(Boolean isAdministrationServiceJob)
I have tried to remove the search service application and recreate it, and even though the SharePoint Central Administration states that it was created successfully, I am still getting the same errors in the log. If I go to the Search Service Application
Search Administration page, the "System Status" shows the following message:
The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component '0359af35-0982-4ede-8838-b1d390e915bf' in search application 'Search Service Application' is in a good state and
try again
Additionally, under the "Search Application Topology" section, it states "Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running" which I assume is normal if the admin is not
running.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this problem?
Thanks!

Hi Joaquin,
According to your description, the error occurred when you re-created the Search Service Application.
Based on the error message, I recommend to verify the things below:
   1. Check if the association between the Search Service Application proxy and the web application is configured.
Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Configured service application associations > Click Default to see if the Search Service application is checked.
   2. Change the app pool for the Search Service Application to SharePoint Web Services Default in the properties of the Search Service Application.
Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Manage service applications > Highlight the Search Service Application > Click Properties in the ribbon > Change
the two app pool to SharePoint Web Services Default: App Pool For Search Admin Web Service and Application Pool for Search Query and Site Settings Web Service.
    3. Run PS command to check if the search admin timer job is enabled: Get-SPTimerJob
job-application-server-admin-service | fl. If it is not enabled, use PS command to enabled it and then reset Internet Information Services: Enable-SPTimerJob job-application-server-admin-service.
Best regards.
Thanks

Need Detailed instructions to install new hard drive & upgrade from Vista Home to Win7 Enterprise

Hi folks,
I have this laptop machine:
Lenovo 3000 G530 4446-23U Laptop Computer - Intel Pentium Dual-Core T3400, 2GB DDR2, 160GB HDD, DVDRW, 15.4" WXGA, Vista Home Basic
I need to install another hard drive and I also want to upgrade to Win7 Enterprise Edition while doing the rebuild.
I am very nervous about doing this as I upgraded a W530 from Win7 basic to Win7 Enterprise and ran into all kinds of drive issues. And I thought that would be about as straightforward as you could get, but it a far cry from that.
I do not want to have to go through that again - I still don't have everything working on it.
Can someone please tell me the precise steps to take to do this upgrade and how to ensure that I obtain ALL the drivers for EVERYTHING on the laptop and how to ensure that all those drivers are correct and exactly how to install them.
If there are other issues associated with upgrading from Vista Home to Win7 Enterprise, please advise of those and the solutions.
Thanks very much.....
Gus

hi gmercanti,
Welcome to the Lenovo Community.
The easiest way to upgrade Vista to Windows 7 is to run the Windows 7 Installer inside WIndows. Follow this guide for instructions. After upgrading, you will need to install the Windows 7 Drivers for Lenovo G530 4446 via http://support.lenovo.com.
Spoiler (Highlight to read)
Let me know if you get any errors.

BI 7.0: Source System upgrade from R/3 Enterprise to ECC 6.0

Background:
I am relatively new to BW team and will be going through my 1st source system upgrade.
We currently have BI 7.0 SPS 17 connected to source system R/3 Enterprise EP1.
We are upgrading to the source system to ECC 6.0.
In Development and QA Environments:
we will have access to both old (R/3 Enterpirse) and the new (ECC 6.0) source systems.
We have a opportunity to compare the BW Objects, data flow and data loading from
both source systems.
In Production, however, we will just upgrade over 3 days downtime.
One Question that comes to mind in this regard...
What sort of things, we should be checking for before and after upgrade in Dev/QA and in Prod environments and what tools are available that can help the analysis and validation process ?
Some of the suggestions that were given to me include following points.
Before Upgrade:
1 Check data, taking pre images of it for testing with post upgrade.
2. Perform proper analysis of Source system related BW objects.
- A complete listing of actively used Datasources,.. etc.
3. Make delta queues empty,
Make sure that all existing deltas are loaded into BW.The last request delta must not deliver any data and must be green in the monitor.
4. Stop Process chains from BI (remove from schedule) and collection runs from R/3 side
After Upgrade:
1 After the OLTP upgrade, refer to note 458305 and other notes that are relevant to the actual upgrade
(depending on the R/3 system release / R/3 plug-in to BI plug-in compatibility).
2. Check logical system connections. Transactions SMQS, RSMO and SM59, If no access, then we can use Program RSRFCPIN_NEW for RFC Test.
3. Check and/or Activate control parameters for data transfer. SBIW ---> General Settings --->
Maintain Control Parameters for Data Transfer
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/51/85d6cf842825469a51b9a666442339/frameset.htm
4. Check for Changes to extract structures in LBWE Customizing Cockpit
- OSS Notes 328181, 396647, 380078 and 762951
5. Check if all the required transfer structures are active. See OSS Note 324520 for mass activation.
7. Check if all Source system related BW Objects are active - Transfer rules, Communication rules, update rules,DTPs,..etc.
Below is a link for some useful programs in this regard.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/pages/viewpage.action&pageid=35458
6. Test all important datasources using RSA3 and check for OLTP Datasources changes .
As soon as BW notices that the time stamp at the DataSource in the OLTP is newer than the one in the transfer structure, it requests replication of the DataSource and activation of the transfer structure. Transfer the relevant DataSources only if required, and transfer only the ones that have changed (RSA5 -> Delta).
7. Create Data flow objects (trnasfer rules, infopackages, trnasformations, DTPs) for the Replicate
new/changed datasources,if needed.
8. Check all CMOD enhancements.
If we are using a customer exit with the extractor in the OLTP, see Note 393492.
7. Check for unicode (all custom programs or Function Modules for DataSources)
5. Check all the queues in RSA7, start delta runs and test data consistency.
For delta problems:In the BW system, start the 'RSSM_OLTP_INIT_DELTA_UPDATE' program for the DataSource and the source (OLTP) system for which the init selections are then transferred from BW into the ROOSPRMSC and ROOSPRMSF tables in the source system so that the delta can continue.
9. Take back up of data posted during upgrade for contingency planing.
10. Run the entire set of process chains once if possible and let it pick up no data or the usual master data.
Since we have lot of experts in this forum, who have probably gone through such scenario many times, i wanted to request you to Please Please advise if i have stated anything incorrectly or if i am missing additional steps, OSS Notes, important details...

Thanks Rav for your detailed post and very helpful contribution by posting all the information you had regarding the upgrade.
We have similar scenario -
We are upgrading our source system from 4.7 to ECC 6.0. We have our BI system with BI 7.0 at support pack 19 (SAPKW70019).
Our strategy in ECC deployment ->
In development we copied our old DEV 4.7 system DXX to new ECC system DXY (new system ID).
In production we are going to use same system PRXX upgraded from 4.7 to ECC.
Now we are in testing phase of ECC with all interfaces like BI in Dev.
My questions are below ->
How can we change/transfer mapping of all our datasources in Dev BW system BID to new ECC dev system DXY (Eg. Logical system LOGDXY0040) from Old dev system DXX (Eg. Logical system LOGDXX0040). We donot want to create new datasources or change all transfer rules/Infosources for old BW3.x solutions on our BI.
Also in new ECC sourcesystem copy we see all datasources in Red in RSA7 transaction. Do we need to initialize again all the datasources from our BW BID system.
Is there any easy way for above scenario ?
Please let me know if you have any further helpful information during your ECC 6.0 upgrade connecting to BI 7.0 system.
I have found some other links which have some pieces of information regarding the topic -

Upgrade CFM from Sap R/3 Enterprise (4.7) Sap to ECC 6.00

Hello,
We are in a project of upgrade Sap from Sap R/3 Enterprise (4.7) to Sap ECC 6.00. Our question is particularly for CFM component migration/upgrade.
As we checked we have activate the extension set:
EA-FIN: Financials Extension
EA-FS: Financial Services
According with the Component Version Data the extension set EA-FINSERV has the release 2.00. However, in order to execute the CFM migration with transaction TPM_MIGRATION we are not sure if our CFM installation is on release 1.00 or 2.00.
In the other OSS note 858966 mentions the following conditions to start points migration:
1. The start release of the upgrade is SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 with SAP
R/3 Enterprise extension set 1.10 or earlier.
2. The target release of the upgrade is SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.70 with SAP
R/3 Enterprise extension set 2.00 or higher.
Do you know a transaction o report Sap which provides this information?
Thank in advance.
Sergio

Within SAP, select System -> Status... In the pop-up box, click the details button in the SAP System data section and you'll get another pop-up with system component information. It's been a couple of years since I did the Treasury migration for our upgrade from 4.7 to 6.0, but I believe the component you're looking for is EA-FIN. The Release column will have either 110 (for extension set 1.10) or 200 for (2.00).

Shannon
