Solution Manager 7.1 SP 14 (09/2015) upgrade

[steven_foo]

Hi,

We are in the process of upgrading our SM 7.1 to SP 14 (09/2015) using SUM tool.

At the stage 5.4 we are ask to add around 40GB of space and create tablespace PSAPSR3702X. We give it 60GB, and it was all use up

in the next stage 5.5 Preprocessing at DBCLONE.

We added another 60GB space, and it was use up all again. Total 120Gb is totally use up in the DBCLONE stage.

The original PSAPSR3702 is only 30GB.

We are quite confuse why it needed so much space in DBCLONE. It is like using 4 times of the space and still keep asking stop due to error of insufficient space.

At stage 5.5 Preprocessing for ABAP, could we

1) Choose "Exist Program" and cancel the upgrade for ABAP part? Use SUM for Java related upgrade only.

2) Drop tablespace PSAPSR3702X and all it files? Any issue here if we reverse and drop the tablespace?

3) Stop using SUM for the ABAP stack SP14 upgrade and instead use SPAM/SAINT?

Update:

We raise a ticket with sap with question and they could not find out why.

What we did:

1) Stop upgrade and Reset upgrade for ABAP stack and use SAINT for the upgrade.

2) For JAVA, we use continue to use SUM 14

3) We drop PSAPSR3702X tablespaces and all it's files.

Hope this could help those who face the same issue.
