Hi,
We are confronted by an issue with SUM in our solman development system
upgrade. This has resulted in a hault of our solman patch
upgrade.
What we are doing (or intend to do) -
We wanted to upgrade our Solman Java's J2EE Core componetns as per SAP
Note# 1893013 to the latest patch level available in market palce.
In other words, we wanted to upgrade following components as follows -
SAP-JEE 7.02 SP15 (1000.7.02.15.0.20141002164600) TO 7.02 SP15
(1000.7.02.15.5.20141002164600)
SAP-JEECOR 7.02 SP15 (1000.7.02.15.0.20160310055015) TO 7.02 SP15
(1000.7.02.15.24.20160310055015)
SAP_JTECHF 7.02 SP15 (1000.7.02.15.0.20160211045334) TO 7.02 SP15
(1000.7.02.15.16.20160211045334)
SAP_JTECHS 7.02 SP15 (1000.7.02.15.0.20160211045605) TO 7.02 SP15
(1000.7.02.15.21.20160211045605)
What we did -
We downloaded latest available SUM tool in market place -
SUM10SP17_4-20006543.SAR and started our upgrade (following guide for
example - running by root and using new command - ./STARTUP
confighostagent <SID> etc)
There we choose above mentioned 4 components and their target release
and continued. Not to say, we choose manual update in SUM
What SUM has done until now-
SUM is at step "Deploy Software Components" - 50% complete and now in
error. We see that all above 4 components have been upgraded to their
desired level in system status.
What is the issue we face now -
Unfortunately, EPS inbox had a lot of other patches in it from previous
upgrades of different systems which we didn't cleared. And now somehow
SUM has read the whole directory and stops with following error -
Jul 21, 2016 7:34:45 AM Info: Loading archive
'/usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/SECURITYEXT07P_5-10008748.SCA'

AG/0/7.3007.20120924153323.0000/sc~security-ext.sda: This SDA has a
software
type assigned that is not supported: CONTENT.
SUM is giving these errors for following components only (though we
surely have other unwanted patch files as well in inbox)-
'/usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/SAPCRMJAV04_149-20008034.SCA'
Loading archive '/usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/SAPCRMWEB04_149-20008033.SCA'

Loading archive '/usr/sap/trans/EPS/in/SAPXIESR07P_23-10008104.SCA'
What we have tried as of now -
I deleted these files from inbox as they are not needed but then SUM
said it couldn't find the files!
Actually SUM creates a file (like telnet does)
/usr/sap/S2D/SUM/sdt/tmp/deploy_list.txt and it makes entries for above
SCAs and search for them.
My Question -
Why SUM is looking for the components which we didn't selected in the
first place.
Why SUM is checking these components (that they are invalid) during
execution phase and not in "checks" phase ?
Most important question is ----- >>> Now what is the way to
tell SUM that we don't need these components and it can proceed without
them ?
