SAP 4.6B installation on Solaries 10 , Oracle 9207 with 4.6D kernal

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have done the straight installation on SAP 4.7C, 9207 Database-- which was good.

now I have been requested to install 4.6B R3 with 4.6D SR1 kernal on 9207 Oracle DBA ( solaris 10) 64 Bit.

I am bit confused about these CD's ( we have 4.6C SR2 and 4.6D SR1 Extension CD's , btw what are these extension CD's? ) and Compatibility issues. have any one done this previously? if I select 4.6B Release ( Only 32 Bit is there), can I install 4.6B with 4.7D tools?

Pl advice and any help will be highly appreiated.

Reg,

Kemp

nope you can't! you have to use the 46 tools (differences are quite big!)....by the way: 46b ist not supported any more...support ended 31st december 2006

-> 46B R3...what's that?

Hi Andreas,

Thanks for reply. what do you mean by 46 tools?

I want to install 46b with 46d kernal on Solaries 10 ( 9207 Database). One option is install 46B and upgrade to 46D kernal, however I have Loats and Lots of CDs( Extension CD's), Can I install directly?

46b SAP R/3

hi,

you need to use the 46b tools to install the system, ie. r3setup and the appropriate *.r3s template(s)...plz have a look at sapnet as the kernel cd needs to be patched with appropriate executables and r3s templates in order to use the 46d_ext kernel for the installation (see notes 179.139 and 557.255)...cds you'll need include kernel, rdbms (incl. patch) and export cds...
