SAP Solman 7.1 supports oracle version 11.2.0.2.0

[Former Member]

Dear all,

We are doing Fresh installation of Solman 7.1 AIX Oracle in Solman Server.

OS Used: AIX

Database : Oracle.

We have downloaded Solman CDs 7.1 from Service Market Place (SMP ) path.

SMP Path:

Software Downloads---Installations and Upgrades --- SAP Technology Components SAP SOLUTION MANAGER SAP SOLUTION MANAGER 7.1---INSTALLATIONS—AIX---Oracle Database

In the Solution Manager 7.1  place path  , CDs available for Oracle is "Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3 AIX 64 Bit".

Now Oracle installation  stopped with the OS Patch FIX  ( OS Patch : IZ97457 and OS Patch  IZ89165)as in the attached screenshot.

Only after applying  the above OS Patches , oracle installation can be proceeded in Solman Server.

Kindly clarify the below clarifications:

Is Oracle Software CDs  11.2.0.2 available in ServiceMarket Place path. If so please mentionthe path

2) If full Oracle Software CDs available in SMP , Will  Solman 7.1 supports Oracle version 11.2.0.2 ??

3)Will Solman Manager 7.1 supports Oracle version 11.2.0.2 ?/

To avoid the OS fix patch, We are asking the above clarifications to avoid further delay in installing or Proceeding WITH solman INSTALLATION.

tHANKS AND rEGARDS,

Hello Sunil and Reagan,

Thanks for the Solution Provided.

we try applying the OS Patch FIX  ( OS Patch : IZ97457 and OS Patch  IZ89165 .

If that OS patch didnt work out, we need to download the oracle version 11.2.0.2 version and start the solman installation from scratch...

Regarding the missing AIX APARS, check the TL level of the AIX as some APARS are part of the patch level even though the script shows that they are missing.

hi..

where i will get the prerequistes for applying the OS Patch : IZ97457 and OS Patch  IZ89165.

In all our servers ( SAPECC , SAP BI etc) oracle version is maintained as 11.2.0.2 .

if we apply the OS patch, will the LPARS gets affected in other SAP servers?

regArds,

Like I said before there is a possibility that these patches are part of the TL level even though the instfix command shows they are missing.

Oracle Database Preinstallation Tasks

It looks like those patches are present in the TL level you have but I suggest you to check with an AIX specialist to confirm this.

Could you share the error you are getting while installing the Oracle ?

Hello Reagan,

We are not getting Error in Oracle installation .

When we trigerred ./RUNINSTALLER script to install Oracle, Oracle installation stopped in Prerequiste phase as in the attached screenshot.

Hello Gayathri

That is just a warning.

Click on the "Ignore All" check box at the top right corner and then the next and install functions will be active.

Continue with the installation.

Hi Reagan,

As mentioned above, We have enabled the check box "Ignore ALL"and proceeded with the oracle installation.

Wen we gave "Ignore ALL" and clicked next , we are getting warning msg as in the attached screenshot.

can we give YES and proceed withthe installation . Will it give any OS level impact WITHOUT applying OS patch??

regards,

gayathri.K

[Reagan]

Hello Gayathri

Click Yes and continue with the installation.

One more thing: During the installation if there is some error shown by the installer then provide that error. In that case I would recommend to contact an AIX specialist for the missing APARS and check whether they are included in the TL level of the system before you continue with the SAP installation.

Hello Reagan,

I have enabled the checkbox Ïgnore all" and proceeded the installation.

Oracle installation went successful as in the attached screenshot.

Do i need to apply Opatch and MOPatch in 11.2.0.3 on solman server.

Thanks and Regards,

Gayathri.K

[Reagan]

You need to apply the latest SBP after the installation.

It is good to apply OS patches and continue with your installation rather than going for lower oracle version. Check the product availability matrix (PAM) for supported OS/DB https://service.sap.com/sap/support/pam?hash=s%3DSAP%2520SOLUTION%2520MANAGER%25207.1%26o%3Dmost_vie...
