Upgrade dialog instance

Hello!

I have upgraded to ehp4 erp system. One of the point of post upgrade instruction say:

6.30 Upgrading or Installing Dialog Instances

After the upgrade of the central instance, you need to upgrade the dialog instance to the new release.

To do this, you install the new dialog instance on top of the old dialog instance using the tool SAPinst.

Note

If you experience problems when installing a new ABAP dialog instance on top of the old one,

uninstall the old dialog instance first.

You can now also install more dialog instances, if necessary.

Procedure

Proceed as described in the document Installation Guide ‒ <SAP NetWeaver / SAP application>

(<Technology>) on <Operating System>: <Database>.

But i can not find documentation that described process of upgrading dialog instance.

Please help me.

PS

I do not understand how it is possible to find with this reference:)

Hi Stanislav Drizin,

The recomendation from SAP is to do the following when you upgrade a system which has dialog instances -

1. Upgrade the Central Instance.

2. De-install the Dialog instances (source release)

3. Install the DIalog instances (target release) using sapinst.

I hope this helps.

Regards,

Sriram

Hi,

You don't have to upgrade Dialog Instance separately, the App servers should pick the upgraded components from the database.

Only upgrade in the DI is KERNEL and if you have upgraded KERNEL in global\SYS\exe , then DI D00\exe directory should sync with global\SYS\exe directory.

Bottom line is no upgrade necessary in DI server.
