- The OutBoard upgrade package is an Add-on which should be imported using the Add-On Installation Tool (transaction SAINT). Upload and import all the *.pat files using the wizard (detailed guide can be found under the SAINT online documentation). OutBoard support packages should be updated using the SPAM Update (transaction SPAM) up to level 018 (detailed guide can be found under SPAM online documentation). After a successful OutBoard DataTiering installation the software component DVD with release 200 and Level 018 will be available in the system as shown on the screen.
Result of successful OutBoard Add-On installation
- Import the transport NSQK903789. Transport files are included in the downloaded zip file. This transport contains table content for the OutBoard Lookup Translator.
Import the transport HD1K900376. HD1K900859. Please note: This step step is only required in case you want to archive ADSO and your SAP system has a SAP_BW component version 7.40 SP16 and above. More is on Hana. More info about the support of ADSO can be found under the OutBoard User Documentation. - Now execute the report /DVD/NL2_XPRA_NLS_KEY with unchecked "Test mode". This report will update metadata of the current archive so they can be accessible on the new version of OutBoard.
- Execute the report /DVD/NL2_XPRA_STORAGE with the default setting and without "Test mode". This program is used to assign all NLS objects from the previous version of OutBoard to a default aging profile (primary database).
- Install the new license.
