Ehp1 for Portal doubt

[Former Member]

Hello All,

We are into upgrading our landscape to Enhacement Package 1 for Netweaver 7.0.

We have already upgrading the ECC 6.0 to Ehp4 .We also have Portal 7.0 in our landscape.

I have few doubt about the EHP1 for the Portal Landsacpe.

We have the following system for the Portal

Portal DEV (JAVA only)

Portal QA (JAVA only)

Portal PRD (JAVA only)

NWDI (Dual Stack).

Following is my doubt

1.) Can a NWDI be a separate instance with DUAL stack.

2.) If yes , how can i upgrade the NWDI system. Any special procedure i need to follow.

3.) For the Portal , as i read the installation document , it does not create a shadow system, Am i right

4.) So if it does not create a shadow system then , will it work in Downtime Minimize Option

5.) What is the space requirement for the Portal for EHP1 installation(which all directory needs space eg does usr/sap/SID also requires space since the EHPI is using the JSPM for EHP1 )

I am sorry if the questions are too basic , but i am very confused when it comes to JAVA.

Regards

Hi Anthony,

> Following is my doubt

I have not heard NWDI as a dual stack. I have seen my NWDI system as Java stack only with separate instance.

> 2.) If yes , how can i upgrade the NWDI system. Any special procedure i need to follow.

You can upgrade your NWDI system as EHP1 upgrade only. But you have to take care while downloading patches select Development Infrastructure usgae type.

> 3.) For the Portal , as i read the installation document , it does not create a shadow system, Am i right

No. It creates shadow system in portal upgrade as well.

> 4.) So if it does not create a shadow system then , will it work in Downtime Minimize Option

Yes it will work as it creates shadow instance.

For space this thing you need to take care especially for Java:

For Java stack upgrade, space in /usr/sap/<SID> should be 4 times the size of J2EE packages need to be applied

Rest will be same like others.

Thanks
