Can we upgrade a WAS to basis700 while all other components stay 640?

[Former Member]

We have this "strange" requirement for some reason. We never did upgarde on only one component.

Could you tell whether this will not cause any problem?

Thanks!

The question was if you can.... well, yes you can (as long as the requirements for the SP are met).

Now, as stated above... this may cause problems, thats why our colleagues in Germany spend lots of human hours creating this components and stacks.

Be good to know why are you looking into this?

The background is as follows:

We want to upgrade a production VIRSA to GRC5.3. Per note 1133173 "Upgrade to SAP BASIS 700 with VIRSANH 530_700", seems only BASIS and ABA need to be upgraded to 700 for our VIRSA

upgrade purpose.

We want to minimize the change on the production, that's it.

Your advices are very helpful. Thanks!

Hi Christy,

Whether or not it is technically possible is moot. It is not supported.

Hi,

Matt is afraid of SAP customers "creativity" !

I would feel the same if I were a SAP support employee...

I think this is not possible. Can I ask you why this is needed (out of curiosity) ?

Hi,

This is not possible because this will cause incompatibility issues.
