Upgrading UA/LH flight

So let's say I want to fly SFO-FRA-TLV. I have a couple of options and want to figure out how the upgrades work. The information I found by searching this forum seems outdated (and doesn't cover my first scenario), so...
  1. SFO-FRA on UA and FRA-TLV on LH. Can I upgrade the UA portion with a SWU and the LH portion with miles? Or would they need to be on separate PNRs? How many miles is the FRA-TLV upgrade?
  2. All legs on LH. How many MP miles would the upgrade be?
  3. How hard is upgrading on LH (relative to UA)?
