You can see the error I get when I start the upgrade. (Picture
4.0)Please follow the following item from note #1995791:Validity:
there was a file /usr/sap/HAN.hdbupgrade dated last year
Which was used when the database was upgraded to REL 60. It
appears
that the previous upgrade was still in a "hung" state which
causes the
error message below (SAP HANA Database installation
kit'1.00.60.379371' required)during the manual update as well as
using HLM.
Solution: the solution is to mv the file to HAN.hdbupgrade.old
and
resume the update. Once resumed a new file HAN.hdbupgrade with
recent
date will be generated.
