Hello,

we want to update from ASE 15.7 to 16.

Our development team is asking whether they have to observe something in the programming in the new version?

Has anything changed in the new version?

Dear Mr Steinhäuaser

ABAP OPEN SQL remains unchanged . If you adhere to ABAP best practice programming then nothing changes with DB upgrade.


Generally : Existing code should continue to work .

Hi,

Can you mention the exact version of ASE 15.7 being used. Not all versions of 15.7 can be upgraded to all versions of ASE 16.

SAP Note: 1554717 - SYB: Planning information for SAP on ASE"

KBA  2231176 - SAP ASE: Error during major upgrade from SAP ASE 15.7 SP135 to SAP ASE 16.0 SP01 PL02

Use SAP Note 1982469 (SYB: Updating SAP ASE with saphostctrl / sapdbctrl) for doing the upgrades.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

You will have to go to ASE 16.0 SP01 PL03.

As per the KBA  2231176 - SAP ASE: Error during major upgrade from SAP ASE 15.7 SP135 to SAP ASE 16.0 SP01 PL02


After an upgrade of ASE to 16.0 or higher, the 'startdb' script of the SAP kernel needs to be adapted. Install the latest SAP Kernel which provides the changed 'startdb' script. If you do not want to perform an upgrade of the SAP kernel at this point in time, you may download the adapted startdb script which is attached to SAP note 1973855.

The envrionment for users syb<sapsid> and <sapsid>adm change during a major upgrade of ASE. To activate the new environment, you have to log out and log in again once the upgrade finishes.

There are many performance enhancement that may be observed in ASE16. Else, there are no particular programming or coding changes that needs to be made.
