Hi Dasari

You can find the upgrade guide here:

https://service.sap.com/installmdm -> Previous Releases (ZIP Files) -> MDM 5.5 SP05 - Planning & Installation Guides -> MDM 5.5 SP05 - Upgrade Guide.pdf

Please also check the release note: 1025897 - MDM 5.5 SP05 Release

Basically you will have to:

- stop User activity, archive your repositories, backup the binaries, stop all mdm processes

- uninstall SP04, install SP05 (including the gui client components)

- restart mdm and upgrade the repostories with the console

- depending on your installation, update other compenents (java api in EP...)

I suggest you go to the most recent SP05 version, there are quite a few patches and hotfixes for SP05. BTW SP06 is already available as well, we will be moving to SP06 pretty soon.

Regards

Michael
