SWPM database installation for existing database - Oracle 12 g

[former_member201054]

Hi ,

We are creating Oracle 12.1 database very well before SWPM run and installing DB schema only for the existing database in SWPM database instance run. In the middle of database instance installation, it ask us to install the database.

1) How to make SWPM to recognize the created database.

2) any software links to be created?..what things to be mapped for detecting the database and continue with database instance installation?

I would appreciate all your inputs.

Thanks in advance

Hi Daniel,

I often using the following method to "cheat" on the database installation process, I assume you've already installed the ASCS/ERS instances, and the SCAN for RAC is available,

Go to SAP Application server, as <sid>adm user, configure tnsnames.ora and SSFS manually for Oracle DB connection, you go to the /sapmnt/<SID>/profile, modify the DEFAULT.PFL, add some parameters relates to database configuration, for example:

SAPDBHOST = <rac_SCAN>

j2ee/dbtype = ora

j2ee/dbname = <rac_db_instance>

j2ee/dbhost = <rac_SCAN>

rsdb/ssfs_connect = 1

Then you start the SWPM with database installation process.

Regards,

Michael

Hi James,

SWPM is not detecting the existing database. I have selected MCOD from appeared options and getting the mentioned error..

Can you share with me SAP NW 7.4 Installation on Oracle 12.1 -Real Application Cluster document.

Could you tell me your thoughts on above error.

Thanks in advance

Hi Daniel,

Why cannot upload sapinst_dev.log? Because via this way, other people can see this file and contribute their idea.

Hi Daniel,

During installation, you can chose install sap on existing database, have you seen that radio button?

If you saw, can you make a screenshot and attach sapint_dev.log?

Best regards,
James
