[Former Member]

Dear Team,

I want to update Kernal of my ECC 6.0.

First I want to tape backup of my Current Kernal.i.e is in location

quality :/usr/sap/QAS/SYS/exe/run#

I have make one Directory New_kernal.In this new_Kernal is there.

How I copy new_kernal in this location i.e .usr/sap/QAS/SYS/exe/run#

You could do e. g.

cd /usr/sap/QAS/SYS/
mkdir exe.new
cd exe.new
SAPCAR -xvf SAPEXE*.SAR
SAPCAR -xvf SAPEXEDB*.SAR
SAPCAR -xvf igsexe*.SAR
SAPCAR -xvf DBATL*.SAR (if you use Oracle)

- the stop the SAP system (stopsap)

- stop saposcol (saposcol -k)

- stop sapstartsrv (/etc/init.d/sapinit stop or for HP-UX /sbin/init.d/sapinit stop)

cd /usr/sap/QAS/SYS
mv exe exe.old
mv exe.new exe
cd exe
su 
<password>
./saproot.sh QAS

Then restart the instance.
