Suggestions on IDM 7.2 SP8 to SP9 Upgrade

Former Member

Hello All,

I would like to know the challenges/issues you had while updating IDM 7.2 SP8 to SP9.

We have lot of customized tasks/jobs and also have existing PF modified with custom changes.

I have checked SAP NetWeaver Identity Management Library - SAP Library for SP9 details and see that major change is Version 2 PF.

It would be of great help if you could let me know the steps you followed to upgrade SP8 to SP9 and also issues you encountered & possible solutions for them.

Your suggestions would be of great help.

Thank you very much in advance.

Thanks & Regards,

Pradeep

Hi Pradeep,

You should not have any significant issues on SP updates.  Follow the instructions as dictated and you should be fine.

Just remember to shut down your dispatchers and event agents (I don't think you're running any, but it's been a while )

Regarding the framework, you don't need to upgrade it if you don't want to, and there's always the option when importing a new framework to examine the script changes.  Probably the most important thing when doing a framework update is to back up what you already have, and if possible, do it in a sandbox environment where things won't get hurt.

This will be a bigger issue if you are going from PF 1 to PF 2, but I don't see a big advantage for you doing that right now.

Major planning will be needed when moving from 7.2 -> 8 if and when you decide to do that.
