Dear Ahmed,

I have been facing the same issue.

Since the table is only found in the original system, you have to to first unlock it for logon, as DDIC or SAP* will not be able to perform the mentioned note.

You can do so by using the following command:

tp unlocksys <SID> pf=TP_DOMAIN_<SID>.PFL

Then you can login with an admin user and perform the above mentioned note.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Hi all ,

    Actually I am happy to your support me In this discussion  .

but I'm not happy to perform this upgrade .

What can I do to run tp after appear massege :

The program can't start because sapnwreccm.dll is missing from your computer . try reinstalling the program to fix this problem .

Is it possible to stop and start actual system during upgrade ?? 

Thanks

[Reagan]

Hello

I am not sure what exactly you are doing to get this error ?

If the primary system is up and running then try accessing it using DDIC user.

Hi,

The program can't start because sapnwreccm.dll is missing from your computer . try reinstalling the program to fix this problem .

Can you just run tp with sidadm and see if it runs.... If it runs then it can be that there is some issue with tp -v command.

I don't have a windows sap host on which i can try.

You can start or stop the system but there should be reason for that why you want to start or stop.

Hi,

can you please tell me the OS and the DB .

It looks windows and MSSQL but what version . Have you check first if os and the db are supported on this oS and DB. Sorry for asking this question in the last should have asked in the starting.

PATH=D:\SUM\abap\exe;C:\Windows\system32;C:\Windows;C:\Windows\System32\Wbem;C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_23-x64\b

Now the logs attached above doesnot states any error description. but just states that it terminated.

Do you see any other file updated in the D:\SUM\abap\log directory.

Thanks

Hi ,

Thanks .

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can you please go in the directory and run the below command.

D:\SUM\abap\exe

R3trans -V

tp -V

Please check that there is no hanging tp and R3trans process related to the directory mentioned above .

Once you have done the check can try to run and see if the log show that the tp and r3trans are called as i cant see in the current Phase being called .

Thanks

You need to follow this SAP note.

1881193 - LOCHRSAE: Error during SP24 Implementation

There is an attachment in the note and you may refer to that.

You need to first unlock the SAP system to do that.

Refer to this SAP note to know how to unlock the SAP system.

Hi RB ,

  I now read these notes and I will follow its steps . but I want to know this system is locked or not.. because I am able to access the actual system and shadow system .

Thanks

[Reagan]

Hello Ahmed

The present phase is done in the shadow system.

I believe you are able to access the shadow system.

You should unlock the shadow system according to the note and do the tasks.

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can you please check that you are getting the same error in /usr/sap/SID/DV*/exe directory.

tp -v

Another thing what is the error that you are getting is related to what when you try to do the structure change. Does it says that you are not able to save the changes then i can think that its related to unlock. Can you please past the error that you get..

Thanks

Rishi Abrol

[Former Member]

Hi ,

when run tp -V on usr/sap/SID/DV*/exe directory appear massege :

The program can't start because sapnwreccm.dll is missing from your computer . try reinstalling the program to fix this problem .

When trying to use command: SAPup unlockshd SID to Unlock Shadow system

enter the path of your root directory [D:\sum\abap] :

Root directory = D:\sum\abap

At this time of the procedure, the shadow instance does not exist anymore since

you are passed phase STOP_SHDI_*!

Thanks . 

[Reagan]

Hello Ahmed

I believe you are already in the down time phase.

Could you try performing that in the main system ?

Sorry I over looked your post and was in the impression that you are in ACT_UPG.

RB

[Former Member]

Hi,

I think that the message is coming in both the case so we can ignore it if you are running it with sidadm.

Regarding the upgrade as mentioned to you earlier if you are going to do abend in the actual system please just double check with sap.

Thanks

and how to upgrade r3trans and tp on shadow system ??

Thanks

[Former Member]

Hi,

I can see latest r3trans is 46 and tp is 31 patch level in 740 kernel.

you need to copy these file in the <upgrade directory>SUM/abap/exe directory. But first check what version you have in the directory

WHat error you are getting if you are trying to aapend.

Dear all Thank for your cooperation :

@ Sai Krishna & rableen khurana : When use a the document in sap note 1881193 the table T7AEPBS22 does not exist

@ Reagan Benjamin & Rishi Abrol :  please find the attached file

Hi,

Is the table in the actual system?

Can you please provide that you are using the latest r3trans and tp version.

Not sure weather we can do this step in the main system and it will copy it across.

Can be that you need to follow the steps mentioned in the note in the main system not the shadow system.I Know that the main instance would be locked by this stage.(But would suggest to check with sap and it might be that they might suggest to reset the upgrade and do this step before starting the upgrade. Dont want you to try until sap suggests) Is this a test system . Is this the first system that you are upgrading .

Because from the current it looks that the shadow instance is being built.

MAIN_SHDIMP/SUBMOD_SHDIMP/SHADOW_IMPORT_INC

Hi Rishi abrol

  Yes this table in the actual system and using r3trans and tp version :

tp Version  380.08.41 (release 720 )

R3trans version 6.24 (release 720 - 08.07.13 - 20:13:05 )

Yes, this is the first system that upgrading for me and this actual system not test system .

What advice to skip this step .

[Reagan]

Hello

tp Version  380.08.41 (release 720 )
R3trans version 6.24 (release 720 - 08.07.13 - 20:13:05 )

The above mentioned tp and R3trans are not the correct ones used by the system.

The tp and R3trans used by the system are based on release 740 as the shadow system is using that.

One question. Do you have have the compatible OS and DB for EHP7 ?

You need to connect to the shadow system and check the table T7AEPBS22 and its structure and if required adjust it.

Do not skip this phase unless suggested by SAP.

Regards

RB

[Former Member]

Hi RB ,

  What version for tp and R3trans should I use .

i use OS windows server 2008 R2 and DB SQL server 2008 R2 .

how to connect to the shadow system to check this table ??

[Reagan]

Hello Ahmed

Like I said before the system is already using the tp and Rtrans based on 740 release.

This is the latest version for EHP7.

There should be a shadow system created and on that system you or the developer should have performed the SPDD phase.

The shadow system will be running on the same server (unless you change) and will be having a different system number.

You can check the shadow system profiles here D:\SUM\abap\log\SID\SYS\profile

Connect to the shadow system with the correct system number and check the status of the table.

[Former Member]

Hi RB  ,

     Thanks for you cooperation .

Has been able to access the shadow system with DDIC user and check the table T7AEPBS22  in t-code se11 status of the table is active but i unable Append structure on this table as indicated in SAP note 1881193 .

and i unable logon to this system with other user  . 

What can I do for Append structure on this table to continue the upgrade process .

[Former Member]

Hi,

See as you are running upgrade there are two system avalible.

Actual system running at 720 kernel

Shadow system running at 740 kernel.

As this error you have while import of the shadow instance you need to check if you are using the latest r3trans on the shadow system.

so go in the upgrade directory please check the file in the exe in the upgrade directory.

You can try to copy another user using ddic and see if it helps .

Thanks
