Purpose
The framework uses parallel background jobs to convert databases. Theprocessing takes place using "events". An event describes the databaseconversion of a table in the database. The database conversion must takeplace for each application and client in each system.Integration
The database conversion for ERP 6.00 takes place for 18 events.This means that the background jobs run for several hours depending onthe quantity of data (in the individual tables). For this reason, youshould start the database conversion at a time when the systemworkload is at a minimum. It makes sense to execute the databaseconversion directly after the upgrade. This should be done firstin the development system, then in the consolidation system, and thenfinally (provided the execution is successful) in the production system.Prerequisites
Before you execute the data conversion (for each application, client,and system) you must first perform the following preliminary work, whichyou can do using this report. The report is divided into five steps:
(1),,Generate Customizing
(2),,Generate interval distribution
(3),,Start database conversion (parallel processing)
In the case of complete database conversions, you can execute thefollowing optional process steps:
(4),,Delete interval distribution
(5),,Delete Customizing Selection
Enter the application to be processed.
If you start the "start database conversion (parallel processing)" step(3), then you enter the number of background jobs for each event underparallel processing.
Caution: If you enter "1" job for each event, then at least 18background jobs are started!
If jobs are to be cancelled, you can only restart the databaseconversion (flag). If this should occur again when you repeat thedatabase conversion, you should contact SAP.Activities
For (1): No further selection conditions necessary -> Start (1)
For (2): No further selection conditions necessary -> Start (2)(dependent on the data volumes in the background)
For (3): Initial execution: ,,Enter the number of jobs for each event.
,,Restart: ,,Set the "Restart" flag.
Optional:
For (4): If you have checked that the database conversion is correct,and do not want to convert any more data from another application in thesame client, then you can delete the interval distribution.
For (5): If you have checked that the database conversion is correct,and do not want to convert any more data from another application in thesame client, then you can delete the Customizing.
