NW 7.0 to 7.3 upgrade error PREP_INIT/JOB_RSUPDTEC phase

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

I'm running NW 7.0 to 7.0 upgrade on HP-UX 11.31 and Oracle 11.2.0.2.

SUM GUI started on Windows Server 2003 machine from browser.

I've got an error in PSUPDTEC.LOG during upgrade :

I'm new in UNIX systems and think that it's UNIX related error. Plese help.

Thank you!

I've found the solution:

In /etc/hosts file I had

10.6.13.145 EVBYMINSD1307.mydomain.com EVBYMINSD1307

after changing to

10.6.13.145 evbyminsd1307 EVBYMINSD1307.mydomain.com EVBYMINSD1307

upgrade continued.
