Prerequisites:

Take Backup of the existing development system,File system(FS) and Database(DB)

Get Approval from System Owner for Solution Manager Ehp1 Upgrade

Switch off Archive logs before Starting Upgrade

For Java Stack: Minimum Support Package Level should be SP17

Installation and Configuration Procedure:

Java Stack

Download the Support Package Stack for SPS17

Update Java Stack to SPS17 using JSPM (Kernel also gets updated to SPS17)

Place the complete Media along with SPSTab.xml in /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in folder

Login to JSPM with SDM user

Select the Support Package Stack from the below screen which can be seen after you login

You can see the Target SP Stack level as 17. Press Next



Now we can see all the components. Click Start if status of all components are

OK/Warning:

Once the update is started we can see the status of each software component as shown in the below screen



Once the Deployment is finished please Exit by pressing Exit button

Now download the Ehp1 media for Java stack and place in /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in.

Now start JSPM and update Java stack exactly similar to the above steps.

Now take the backup of FS and DB

ABAP Stack

Download the Support Package Stack until Ehp1, extract them and place in trans folder

First update SPAM/SAINT to latest available patch

Change the value of parameter to rdisp/max_wprun_time to 4000 before starting SAINT update. If we don’t set this parameter, a TIME_OUT error will occur during SPDD_SPAU_CHECK phase or start the SAINT update in background.

Even though as per SAP Note 1169247, ABAP Stack should be at any support package stack for SAINT update, it’s better to update to SPS17 first and then do Ehp1 installation

Issues during Upgrade

Issue 1:

JSPM hangs because it is unable to copy kernel files to kernel directory

Solution:

Change the ownership of the kernel and JSPM directory to <sidadm>: sapsys and give full permissions (777), then Resume JSPM again.

Issue 2:

Syntax error occurs in SAINT during IMPORT phase:

The following syntax error occurred in the program SAPLSUNI : "The type "FBINFO1" is unknown. " The current ABAP/4 program "SAPLSXST " had to be terminated because one of the statements could not be executed. This is probably due to an error in the ABAP/4 program.

Solution:

Apply SAP Note 572117

Issue 3:

Unable to proceed with SAINT queue. It pop ups the below error:



Solution:

Check the component which is not matching component vector and make sure that all the patches for this component required for Ehp1 are there in trans folder. If not download and copy them.
