Hello All,
We would like to upgrade our R/3 4.7EX200 system to ECC6.0 EHP6, and is now planning the upgrade path.
Currently we are working on Windows 2000 Server SP4 32bit + oracle 9.2.0.4
Target will be Windows server 2008 64bit + oracle 11.2.0.3 64bit
I have checked the PAM, but not sure about the upgrade path, shall we first upgrade OS/DB and then SAP, or first upgrade SAP then OS/DB?
I think we should first upgrade the OS/DB, that is to say, do a migration task from the old platform to the new one
R/3 4.7 + ORACLE9 + Win2000 ==> R/3 4.7 + ORACLE11 + Win2008
and then, upgrade the R/3 release on the new server.
But the problem is: whether windows server 2008 and oracle 11g supports R/3 4.7??? as I checked on the PAM, R/3 4.7 only support Windows server 2003 + Oracle 11g, so that means we should first migrate as below:
R/3 4.7 + ORACLE9 + Win2000 ==> R/3 4.7 + ORACLE11 + Win 2003
and then upgrade R/3 4.7 to ECC606 based on ORACLE11 + Win 2003, and finally do a OS upgrade (2003 to 2008) based on Ecc606 + ORACLE11g???
If this is feasible, there will be another problem, that is, ECC606 doesn't support Windows 2003 as checked in PAM, so it is not possible to upgrade R/3 4.7 (Win2003+ORACLE 11g) to ECC606 (Win2003+ORACLE 11g)...
Could anyone give some suggestions? Thanks a lot.
Best regards,
Fresh man
