EHP4 compatibility with EP and GRC

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are upgrading our ECC6.0(Netweaver7.0) to EHP4. We have EP7 and GRC(5.2). We are using EP for ESS/MSS.

Along with this we are upgrading our Database from SQLServer 2005 to SQLServer 2008 and Operating system from WIN2003 to WIN2008.

I am looking to find below information.

If I move to EHP4 at what level I need to take my EP(from ESS/MSS point of view)

At What level I need to take GRC, will it support current GRC5.2.

Second, I am checking in PAM for database and OS support. But bit confused to check in which tab(.eg, central application, EP common etc),

I was looking for what minimum database level and OS level is required.

Could some of you guide me on where to look for exactly.

Thanks in advance.

Hello ,

1). If I move to EHP4 at what level I need to take my EP(from ESS/MSS point of view)

For ECC EHP4, its better to be on EP EHP1 refer to below SAP Recommendation in the link

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ERPHCM/ECC6.0EhP4andPortal+7.00-7.01

For ESS and MSS (Refer to below link in the Section ERP 6.0 EHP 4)

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/EP/DownloadinganddeployESSand+MSS

GRC 5.2

Since, GRC 5.2 is in Extended Maintenance in PAM, I would suggest to go GRC 5.3 (refer to below link)

2). Second, I am checking in PAM for database and OS support. But bit confused to check in which tab(.eg, central application, EP common etc),

In PAM--> You should check in Database Platform --> For ECC EHP4 -->

Hope you are in 64 Bit and UniCode, here is the list (If not in Unicode and 64 bit, please check in PAM )
