Can anybody give some suggestions on what are the required licenses for upgarding the existing PCS7 6.0 to 7.1 SP3?

Current system:
2x Siemens S7-400, 417’s, (separate.  They are not redundant or a pair.  Each performs separate control functions).
 1x redundant server pair, (e.g. 2 servers set up as a redundant pair)
3 clients, (desktop computers)
1 x TP 177B
CAS software and licencing.  They want to log at least the current number of 476 tags to the CAS.  Their current system has the following pertinent statistics for this.
Currently Logging – 476 Tags , (out of a license for 512 Tags to log), System has – 63213 Tags, (out of a license for 102400 Tags).

Thank you

Hi Ammy,

Thank you very much for your information.
I have tried a parts list as below. I also have some questions regarding the required licenses and hardware and hope your would be able to give some guidelines.

6ES7651-5AF17-0YE5   x1   (PCS7 upgrade package 6.x to 7.1)
6ES7658-2AX17-0YE0  x2    (OS server upgarde package 6.x to 7.1)
6ES7652-5CX17-0YE5  x3    (Client upgarde package 6.x to 7.1)
6ES7660-0DE13-2BA0  x2    (OS server)
6ES7660-0BC13-2AA0  x1    (Can this be used for the CAS, for logging 476 tags)
6GK1162-3AA00            x2    (CP1623. Is this a correct one can be used? or any other options?)
6ES7658-2FA17-0YB0  x1     (Is this required for the new CAS? Or it is included in the existing WinCC license and do not need this for the new CAS?)

Is any service pack upgarde license required to upgrade from SP1 to SP3? or is it included in PCS7 software upgrade package already to the latest service pack?

Thanks for your help in advance

Regards
Stanley Li

Only the you already have a CP1613 in your Exiting Configuration, You can used that also,

6ES7651-5AF17-0YE5   x1   (PCS7 upgrade package 6.x to 7.1) OK
6ES7658-2AX17-0YE0  x2    (OS server upgarde package 6.x to 7.1) Not OK
6ES7658-2BX17-0YE0   PCS7 UG PACKAGE OS SERVER V6.X TO V7.1
6ES7652-5CX17-0YE5  x3    (Client upgarde package 6.x to 7.1) OK
6ES7660-0DE13-2BA0  x2    (OS server) OK - Select Right one From Configuration
6ES7660-0BC13-2AA0  x1    (Can this be used for the CAS, for logging 476 tags) - No Idea
6GK1162-3AA00            x2    (CP1623. Is this a correct one can be used? or any other options?)
6ES7658-2FA17-0YB0  x1     (Is this required for the new CAS? Or it is included in the existing WinCC license and do not need this for the new CAS?) - If you have Diffrent Machine then Yes

also As I told you I don't know if you will get the V7.1 SPXX, for this you have to contact Siemens,
Because the recent Version is V8.0

& you will get the Latest Service Pack From Siemens When You order For V7.1 You will get SP3,

Hope you get all information.
