Thanks for the replies guys . Our basis has done the upgrade in DEV . The downtime was like 20 hrs or so , but it didn't matter since its DEV Now we are planning to do it in production and the downtime requested was 30 hrs and you all know that its not a feasible number in production .

Production environment must be better facilated in terms of hardware and memory resources. So it should take considerably lesser time than your DEV. We did many SP upgrades in less than 10 hours.

it will not take more than 8 hours, we had done SP upgradations, but it depends on environment too..

Hi Rahul,

We have recently upgraded our PI 7.0 system from SP 21 to SP 21.

Basis team has requested for 19 hrs downtime. But the actual downtime that was required was less than 10 hours.

During upgrade, you have a downtime minimisation approach which would enable you to perform few actvities online without bringing down the system.

To follow this approach, Goto the transaction code "SAINT" --> Extras --> Settings --> Import Queue --> Import Mode.

There would be an option called "Downtime-minimized". Check that option so that you would be able to reduce the downtime during the upgrade.
