Run brarchive via brtools
Shutdown SAP/Oracle
Run brbackup OFFLINE via brtools
4 Follow the installation guide and this document. Install guide steps are in this document , but
please use both.
5 Make sure /oracle is r/w for ora<sid>

drwxr-xr-x 8 orage1 dba 8192 May 14 2010 oracle

9 Check the prerequisites as shown below using VNC session.
As orasid user
cd /oracle/stage/112_64/database
./runInstaller –executeSysPrereqs
As ora<sid> start VNC session , will need it next
./runInstaller –executePrereqs
OS patch 37042 will show FAILED

Check ignore box
Close
**** GE1 did NOT receive this error ****
Click OK and review the error.
In order to fix this error, you need to install HP-UX Patch PHCO_40381. Ask UNIX admin to install this
patch.
Once it is installed, it should look like the following.
sapbl017:/>swlist | grep 40381

PHCO_40381 1.0 diskowner(1M) cumulative patch
*
As part of the patch bundle installation the server will be rebooted which will also activate the kernel
parameters amended above.
10 Re-execute the above ./runInstaller –executePrereqs

11 Check old ENV parameters are not set and set new Oracle ENV parameters
12 Set the PATH

echo $PATH > path2.txt – I had to edit path2.txt and then put in back in via the commands
below….make sure it looks as below when you are done.
13 Backup the oraInventory - as root in another putty session…don’t exit out of current orasid
session or you will loose all the ENV variables you just set
cd /var/opt/oracle
cp oraInst.loc oraInst.loc.GE1
14 Start the OUI to install the Oracle 11G software – as orasid in you vnc session with the new
ENV variables.
cd /oracle/stage/112_64/database/SAP
./RUNINSTALLER
cd /oracle/stage/112_64/database/sap
./RUNINSTALLER
Provide email address

Click Next
Enable the Check Box and click Continue

Click Next
Click Next
Click Next
Click Next
Click Next
Check space in /oracle/GE1/112_64 – need 8gb free
Change Database operator role to ‘OPER’

Click Next
Ignore the OS 37042 error

Click Next
Click Finish – install will start
Notice the progress – started at 0934

GE1 received this error – can’t do this ahead of time as rdbms is not there yet
I found there is no demo directory in /oracle/GE1/112_64/rdbms
As orasid create demo directory and chmod 755
cd /oracle/GE1/112_64/rdbms
mkdir demo
chmod 755 demo
Click on RETRY
And it keeps going……

Open another putty terminal as root and run /oracle/GE1/112_64/root.sh
After ./root.sh has run

Click OK
Successful…..
Click Close – ended at 1000am….takes about 40 min
15 Install the Current Patch Set as per SAP Note 1431799
(Not required as no patch set exists as yet).
16 Install OPatch as shown below as orasid 102_64 env
Copy new OPatch from .zip file into /oracle/SID/102_64/OPatch – MOPatch needs the OPatch levels
delivered with the .zip.
Move the existing OPatch directory to a different name
sapbl001:orage1 4> cd /oracle/GE1/102_64
sapbl001:orage1 6> mv OPatch OPatch_PRE_SAP_112012_201010
17 Install MOPatch as shown below as per note 1027012.
List the contents first, then extract.
unzip -l /install/ORA_11G/mopatch-2_1_2.zip
mopatch is already unzipped in /install/ORA_11g
If you need to unzip..do above
18 Execute the patch bundle install in test mode using mopatch;
I issued from /install/ORA_11G..same results.

./mopatch.sh -v -d -s /install/ORA_11G/PATCH/SAP_112012_201010_HPUXIA64.zip
19 Once you have reviewed the file, proceed to install the patches.
sapbl001:orage1 41> ./mopatch.sh -v -s /install/ORA_11G/PATCH/SAP_112012_201010_HPUXIA64.zip

20 Create the symbolic link
cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib
ll libnn*.so
ln -s libnnz11.so libnnz10.so
ll ll libnn*.so
Install upgrade scripts as per note 1431793. (Download it and extract it to /oracle/GS0 )
21 Upgrade scripts are automatically installed when patch SAP_112012_201010 is installed.

The scripts are installed into the $ORACLE_HOME/sap/ora_upgrade directory.
22 Copy the listener, tnsnames and sqlnet files from the network/admin directory
23 Adjust the listener for ORACLE HOME as shown below.
(Change the ORACLE_HOME path from 102_64 to 112_64)
24 Also add the following entry to the listener.ora;
ADR_BASE_LISTENER = /oracle/<DBSID>/saptrace
25 Running the Pre-Upgrade Scripts

Logon as orasid
(Ensure that the 10.2.0.4 environment parameters are in use !)
Gather statistics as recommended in the log above;
Run the pre_upgrade_checks.sql script;

Run the pre_upgrade_tasks.sql script;

27 Increase AWR time as per recommendation.
Above commands :
SQL> select retention from dba_hist_wr_control;
SQL> select SPACE_USAGE_KBYTES/1024 “AWR Size [Mbytes]” from V$SYSAUX_OCCUPANTS
where occupant_name = ‘SM/AWR’;
SQL> select sum(bytes)/(1024 * 1024) “SYSAUX Mbytes free” from dba_free_space where
tablespace_name = ‘SYSAUX’;
Results from GE0 and GE1 from above commands…no action was needed on either
GE0 – SPACE_USAGE = 79.75 Mbytes free = 18.25
GE1 - SPACE_USAGE = 105.4375 Mbytes free = 11.625
Free space on SYSAUX looks low here compared to the check results earlier (3.8MB versus 217MB free
space required) so extended SYSAUX to meet the requirement.
I did not extend SYSAUX on GE0 nor GE1…ran OK
Commands for above

SQL> DEFINE NUM_DAYS = 42
SQL> select retention from dba_hist_wr_control;
SQL> begin dbms_workload_repository.modify_snapshot_settings (retention => 60*24 &&NUM_DAYS);
2 end;
3/
Commands from above to check if retention was changes successfully

SQL> select retention from dba_hist_wr_control; should return yout 42 days
28 Implement the Note 1417124. – not applicable if on SP8,,,note is in SP6
29 Arrange full backup including offline redo log files.
30 Shutdown the database and the Oracle listener

31 Update the environment parameters and PATH;
*** If you set all these before you launch vncserver , you will need to set again in *** vncserver
orasid session…the ENV variables DO NOT transfer to the vnc session ***
The PATH environment variable must contain the ‘ora_upgrade’ path;
32 Start the database upgrade utility
cd /oracle/SID/112_64/sap/ora_upgrade/post_upgrade
./dbua.sap.sh
Compatible option gives error. So try without them.
I did not use –compatible on GE0 nor GE1 , no problem….Eric.
Click Next
Click No
Run the following.
This was also run during pre_upgrade..so for GE1 I skipped it and answered Yes to continue.
Click Yes
Click Next
Click Next
Click Next
Click Next
Click Finish
Click OK.
Click OK.
Click OK.
Click Close.
Post-Upgrade steps.
1. Update the environment files for ORACLE_HOME and PATH and SHLIB
(.dbenv_sapbl014.csh….dbenv_sapbl014.sh .dbenv.csh .dbenv.sh)
2. Check the DB version.
SQL> select comp_id, version, status from dba_registry;

3. Update new BR Tools 7.10 Ver 33.
4. Run saproot.sh
5. Run sapdba_role.sql
6. Update the SAPDBA role for both the ABAP and Java schema IDs;
7. Set the database compatibility as shown;
8. Update STATS as shown below. – system_stats oradict_stats ann collect all

Make sure you use 7.10/33 brtools…so install them now…install in both /sapmnt/SID/exe
ABAP and JAVA stack and run ./saproot.sh SID for each.
*** I had an issue where brtools would call up Java SID brconnect 7.00.36 version
And also ;
….
9. Backup the DB…GE1 = almost 5 hours
10. Start the listener

11. Check that it is possible to remote connect to the database through the listener;
(format: sqlplus SAP<SCHEMA_ID>/pwd@SID)
12. Rename the old oracle bin.
13. Check the Read authorization of the gs0adm user for ORACLE_HOME.
14. BEFORE STARTSAP IS ATTEMPTED - Update the sidadm environment to reflect the new
Oracle home.
(.dbenv_sapbl014.csh….dbenv_sapbl014.sh .dbenv.csh .dbenv.sh)
15. Check R3trans –d to verify if this connects successfully.
16. Update and copy SQL*Net files to the TNS_ADMIN directory.

17. ORACLE 11.2.0 requires Oracle instantclient 10.2.0.4

Install the client and redo the link in /oracle/client/10x64
18. Start SAP and do the health check.
19. Check the SAP Profile parameters;
Check AL11 DIR_ORAHOME is substituted to the correct value

Set DIR_CLIENT_ORAHOME in the instance profile to the correct value
Check DIR_SERVER_HOME in the default profile is substituted to the correct value
20. System > Status – will be 11.2.0.1.0
21. Check SM21, SICK, ST22, ST11 (dev_w0)
22. Exec DB02 and click REFRESH button , a DBA refresh job will start
Wait for job to end before going to 23
23. Issue stopsap as sidadm – make sure sidadm can stop dbase and R3
24. Issue startsap as sidadm – make sure sidadm can start dbase and R3
25. Exec SGEN – make take quite a few hours
26. Turn archiving ON after SGEN completes
27. Create needed link for db13 jobs to run successfully and using brtools
As Root
umask 022
cd /usr/lib/hpux64
ln –s /oracle/client/10x64/instantclient/libclntsh.so.10.1 /usr/lib/hpux64/libclntsh.so.10.1
