You need to copy the files into both directory. Kernel 221 is stable but Kernel 236 is not stable and there are some bug in 236 and we have received a message 3 days ago that use Kernel 221 as there are some bug in Kernel 236

Dear Subhash.Chandra.

You writed the patch files have to be copied both directories.

I'm finding the official document or manual of it.

I updated igs patch on one server(ecc 6.0 ides).

I copied the file to one directory(/sapmnt/SID/exe). and I found igs patch was OK(transaction : sisg).

And the the other directory(/usr/sap/SID/DV~~/exe) has same file automatically without copy.

Second Case,

I updated igs patch on our ecc dev server.

I can't update igs version with copy to only one directory.

So I copied remained directory. Then I found igs patch updated successfully.

Thank you.

Hi,

The actual kernel path is E:\usr\sap\QAS\SYS\exe\nuc\NTAMD64 and as per my knowledge if you update here it should update the same in other path also. Try this and if it is not happening then you can update in both the places. Primarily E:\usr\sap\QAS\SYS\exe\nuc\NTAMD64 is the kernel path.
