Upgrade 4.6C - ECC 5.0 stuck in phase parmvnt_shd

[Former Member]

Performing an upgrade from SAP 4.6C to ECC 5.0 the upgrade stucks in phase PARMVNT_SHD with the same symptom as described in sapnet note 198879, however this upgrade runs on an iseries, with os level V5R3. Here is the exact message I get in the tp log :

3 ETP379Xactivating Nametab "/SAPDMC/LSCPROGS":

2 ETP399 >> Name of inactive nametab to read : DDXTT?

2 ETP399 >> Format of inactive nametab to read: 5.0

3 ETP399 ntab export with reset DBTABPOS

2 ETP399 -

---

DB-ROLLBACK() -

---

2AETP344 sqlerror "-901" occured at location "LOC095" (object "DDXTT?")

3 ETP379Xactivating Nametab "/SAPDMC/LSCRULE":

3 ETP399 ntab export with reset DBTABPOS

2 ETP399 -

---

DB-ROLLBACK() -

---

and so on, for all objects. TP keeps on repeating these steps, so the logfile keeps growing and the upgrade stays on the same point.

Please advise,

Kind regards,

Hi Robert,

as you see SQL0901, the problem will ly in the DB2/400. You should have a look at the joblog of this process and find out the messages before the generic message SQL0901. This should put light into the shadow ...

See you,
