Hi,
Currently our production environment is at SAP BO 4.0 SP9 (no patches). I've tried upgrading it in-place in the past multiple times, but every SP or patch I've tried causes a major issue that would significantly impact our normal business operations so we have been unable to upgrade to 4.1. In an attempt to get us on 4.1 SP3 Patch 5, I installed and configured an entirely new and separate environment, which I have done successfully. However, I still need to get the content from our current 4.0 production environment to our new 4.1 production environment. I tried multiple times with both the LCM CLI tool and the UMT with the internal switch enabled.
The LCM tool is awfully slow especially when calculating all the dependencies and including security I've tried multiple things to speed it up (e.g., increasing memory with Xmx and XX:MaxPermSize) but exporting to an LCMBIAR files still takes too long. This is using queries that I've crafted myself in an attempt to get all the content. In addition, I've followed step-by-step all the instructions in Section 15.5 (Promoting full repository content using the promotion management tool) of the Business Intelligence Platform Administrator Guide, but with only marginal success. Even though the queries they specify in that section select all the expected content, some of the content is missing after the import.
The UMT tool on the other hand is much faster and copies all the content from the source 4.0 system to the destination 4.1 system. However, the odd thing is that the universes on the destination system still refer to and try to authenticate against the source 4.0 system. It's almost like the UMT tool forgets to associate the copied content with the new CMS. SAP support says that the UMT tool is the suggested route but they had no idea why the universes still refer to the old source system.
Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks
