Do this ,

ps - ef | grep SAPup

Check what all processes are already running from the above relevant to the upgrade.

Then, kill the ones corresponding to same and then restart upgrade.

Hi Murali,

Nothing is running under (ps u2013ef|grep SAPup )

When I rerun, SAPup program, itu2019s just waiting at port, not starting further..

./SAPup

Enter the path of your root directory [/sapcd/UPGDIR/abap]:

Root directory = /sapcd/UPGDIR/abap

• Reexecuting ./SAPup with adapted environment and restart=0x3.

Waiting for SAP SL-Controller to connect at port number 4240 (CTRL-C to interrupt)...

Thanks and Regards

Ok, then do this, Just give

ps -ef | grep sap

check the output of above and kill any processes corresponding to previous run of upgrade and restart the Upgrade again.

Just start SAPup like how you started when you initiated the Upgrade and it will directly take you to pre-processing roadmap automatically to the point where it got cancelled.

If it is unix, you may have to kill the earlier SAPup processes if it is still reflecting as active before you start SAPup again.

Hi Raja,

when you are starting installstion again, are you not getting "Contine" option ?

If not then you need to reset queue again and start freshly.

There is no requirement to reset the Upgrade.

You can always start the SAPup again and you shall be able to start from the point where it had got cancelled.

There is no issue in the same.

Please start the SAPup again and proceed with the preprocessing roadmap only and there is no requirement to reset the Upgrade.

Hi Raja,

After reaching 70% of the upgrade phase why do you want to go-back. You can definitely restart the upgrade phase from the point it failed. You may refer upgrade guide for the relevant steps.
