Usage type issue with PI upgrade from 7.01 to 7.11

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

We are currently performing an upgrade on our PI system.

We are upgrading from PI 7.01 to PI 7.11 and we've come cross an issue during the prepare phase of the install.

An error has occurred during the execution of the CHECK_SUPPORTED_SOURCE_USAGES phase.

This upgrade doesn't support upgrade of sap.com/MI usage detected on the source system.

You can find more information in the log file /usr/sap/PI3/upg/java/log/CHECK_SUPPORTED_SOURCE_USAGES_SSU_01.LOG.

Use the information provided to troubleshoot the problem. An SAP Note may provide a solution to this problem. Search for SAP Notes with the following key words: com.sap.sdt.j2ee.phases.PhaseTypeCheckSupportedSourceUsages com.sap.sdt.j2ee.tools.check.NegativeResultException This upgrade doesn't support upgrade of sap.com/MI usage detected on the source system. CHECK_SUPPORTED_SOURCE_USAGES INIT PREPARE NetWeaver Upgrade SAPJup Java Upgrade

When reporting problems to SAP Support, attach the trouble ticket file /usr/sap/PI3/upg/java/log/TroubleTicket_01.txt to your message.

We've looked through the main upgrade notes and they mention which usage types are supported, but they do not mention explicity what usage are not supported, and how to proceed with the upgrade if your system does have one of these non-supported usage types.

Considering our system does contain usage type MI, does this mean that we cannot upgrade our current PI system to 7.11?

Please help!

Thanks,

Steph

Hello

Please see note #1247043 Release Restrictions for EHP 1 for SAP NetWeaver PI 7.1 - section "Upgrade: source system must be a dedicated PI system".

It is not possible to upgrade an existing system with the usage type MI. Even if you delete the usage type MI (if this is possible) the upgrade will not be possible.
