Hi, applogies for the delay. i was away from office.
i have gone throught all your advice and realized that the system was using the wrong oracle client. i have made the following changes in the /oracle/client directory
renamed 10x_64 and created a new link with user sidadm

Hi Baket
STEP1: In this scenario all Transports are created in (DEV200),old version ,then these transports are also released to (QAS300-ECC6) for precautionary measures before upgrade of DEV.
If possible those requests are import to QAS, before starting the DEV upgrade to EHP7 and for temporally you can keep the QAS system as development until full landscape upgrade.
STEP2: Our Basis Team upgrade development server to EHP7.
Can we entertained all transports which are created in old development environment in new dEV- EHP7 environment .
In this step you have to take call and select any one of the options,
1. Keep hold all development util your landscape getting upgraded to EHP 7 (Dev, Qty & Prd).
OR
2. As you said that all the transport requests are released in old Dev system and do the import those to QAS, For any emergence you can do the development in QAS released to Prd system. do the Dev upgrade to EHP 7
OR
3. If possible keep the Old Dev system as it is, Create the New EHP7 landscape till QAS with Different SID's
You can do development in New Dev system(Ehp 7), there will be major mismatch between lower & higher version of ERP systems. for that reason I have provided those SCN links

Hi A. Rutten,
even if it may be to late for you, but the SAP Note 1554667 - Where-used list: Performance of job EU_INIT for index build on MSSQL is helpful for the issue on MSSQL-Database.
Kind regards,
Chris
Thanks for your answer.
Unfortunately we don't use a SAP Solution Manager yet.
Any other ideas? Many thanks in advance.
Bye Ringo

Hi KK
Kindly follow the steps to upgrade the exiting SAP system to Windows 2012 with Oracle DB 11.2
1. Could you share the SAP system version details?
2. First you have to upgrade the Oracle DB version from 10.2 to 11.2 (Based on your SAP version). Oracle 10.2 will not supported Windows 2012 server.
3. After upgrade the DB you can perform the SAP Homogeneous system copy from Windows 2003 to 2012 (Not on upgrade the OS). If possible you can create the Sandbox system with current SAP system environment perform the DB upgrade to 11.2 & OS migration to 2012.
4. Before that Kindly refer the SAP upgrade & system copy guide from below link. based on your OS / DB & SAP version
Regards
SS
Hi Ringo
I think you upgrade may be major one, You can calculate the stack from Current level to ECC 6 with NW 7.0 in SAP Service market place. if possible create the Sandbox system perform the upgrade and the start the live landscape systems.

Hi Anand,
We have TDMS setup and we have built our sandboxes using TDMS. I wanted to know is it sufficient for a system upgrade or we ned a full backup restore. 5TB is too much and shadow instance will require more space. The only system which is a full copy of production is our QA. Let me know.
Regards,
SJ
We can caluculate timings during our QA upgrade since that's a full copy of production. What's the reason we always recommend to go for a full copy and why can't we use TDMS to bring data and then do the upgrade. I need to prepare planning slides with pros and cons and that's why put up this question.
SAP System info:
ECC6EHP4 upgrading to EHP7
BW 2004s upgrading to 7.4
Hi KK,
The approach should be 1st DB Upgrade to get aligned with your Business Suite Support also it eliminates the OS/DB compatibility issue.
And then Perform a System copy this will be a homogeneous copy as the OS version is changed hope your not changing your hardware in the OS upgrade process.
And the approach mentioned by Sriram should work.
Also Do refer to the below document For ore details on Windows 2012 R3 support.

Hi KK.
You can follow the same steps as mentioned in my previous message.
On existing SAP system connected any other SAP modules or systems (like SAP BI,EP XI/PI ..)? if it is yes, Kindly refer the SAP Note with PDF for interoperability with NW stack.

Hello All,
During upgrade keys used in the connect for the ssfs connect
so you need to add to environment
DB_CONNECT/SHADOW_DB_USER
DB_CONNECT/SHADOW_DB_PASSWORD
DB_CONNECT/SHADOW_DB_CON_ENV

Hi all,
I have a question about an EHP4 -ERP 6.0 installation we've made, because we bought some Work Manager licenses to implement, but we wanted to make some tests before running those in our primary system.
So the question is if there is any way to create Maintenance Certificates for this ERP Demo in order to use SAINT/SPAM codes, without having to pay for full licenses or keys for the ERP system.
Thanks for your answers,
William
Dear William,
Have you tried to ignore the maintainance certificate window while calling SPAM/SAINT tcode?
Regards, Prem
Thank you so much! The temporary directory helped!
Hi Prem,
I can just click "Ok" on the error screen and it enters normally to the transaction, but later when I am trying to actually install an Add-On it shows another error telling me that this action is not possible without the Certificate.
Images:
-First error entering the Transaction SAINT:
- Second error window:
Thanks for your answer.
On which system did you check the table TATAF?
Shadow or the main instance?
