ECC 6.0 Upgrade Failed in PARCONV_UPG due to failed ICNV

[Former Member]

I'm in the process of an upgrade to ECC 6.0 with a failure in PARCONV_UPG. It seems the incremental conversion of RFBLG failed during the Prepare step as it was doing the Table Switch but this went unnoticed. Now the PARCONV_UPG is failing because table RFBLG is not in the DB?

I can see the temporary table QCMRFBLG in the DB. In SE11 the table definition for RFBLG is there but a message shows "Table RFBLG does not exist in the database." In SE14, there is a DB Request from "Created with Import" with an Error, the function is SWT. Using ICNV, I cannot perform and Initialize, Data Transfer, or Switch. I can see the following in the Error Log:

Step 06-RFBLG/ODATA_CNV 04/29/2008/12:41:17

Last data transfer

QCMBSEG_insert: Operation %_T018V2 failed

form odata_cnv: Operation DB_DATA_COPY failed

Last data transfer incomplete

End step 06-RFBLG/ODATA_CNV 04/29/2008/12:41:18

Does anyone have an idea how I can reset my ICNV and get RFBLG back so PARCONV_UPG can perform the conversion?

Please advise,

The only solution I received from SAP on this issue was to restore the database and reset my upgrade. Upon doing so I ran the Upgrade with the SR2 DVD's where I did not have to convert RFBLG in the ICNV.

SAP has since responded with a solution (SAPKH70014) and temporary work-around:

We could confirm in our test that the table BSEG is converted with the SR3 upgrade. Unfortunately this is due to an inconsistency in the master system where the DVDs were created.

To avoid the table conversion of table BSEG with the SR3-kit, you can do the following. When the upgrade stops for SPDD at the beginning of the activation phase, go to se11 and activate the table BSEG. If you

do a test on a further system, please add the table BSEG to your SPDD-adjustment-transport.

To fix the error in the future, we will deliver the table BSEG again with SP14 of SAP_APPL (SAPKH70014). So, if the SP14 is bound to the upgrade, the conversion will also not take place. And then you do not

need the above written workaround. But the actual plan for the delivery of SP14 is november of this year.

Hopefully this will help you avoid the same problems I had.

Maybe this note can help you:

Note 63639 - Error in activating an operating concern

If you have any problem of incostence betwen Sap DD and you Data Base System you can made the functions of this note.

I hope that the note help.

Best Regards.

Unfortunately, OSS #63639 does not help either. I have tried all the possible solutions for this note

Unfortunately, OSS #303935 does not help. I'm going to ECC 6.00 which is beyond 4.6C SR1. I have already started the downtime and the Save Decision step was completed as well as one attempt to perform the Data Conversion.

Thanks for the suggestion, any other ideas?
