System could be unlocked during Downtime or Execution Phase (for SUM Tool ) during Upgrade

Dear All ,

Yes , System could be unlocked during Execution Phase of Upgrade using SUM Tool .

Many a times we come across situations when we require to login to the system during Execution Phase of Upgrade .

We wonder how can we do it during Downtime or Execution Phase .

Many of us also firmly believe that it is not possible to log in to the system .

But i say yes , we can unlock the system at two phases during Downtime .

To your wonder , even  SUM itself does so . SUM unlocks and locks system automatically .

You can definitely check the ‘SLOG’ generated during this phase of Upgrade by SUM.

Well , the phases are :

1. MAIN_SHDPREPUT/PREACT_UPG
2. MAIN_SHDPREPUT/TABIM_PREPUT

If you want to login to the system during Downtime , you can set break point at above mentioned phases and proceed .

Do not forget to lock after that .

Command that SUM uses to unlock/lock as under.
