JSPM - applying SP stacks

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

I have just installed As Java 2004s + EP and it is at SP6. Now, i want to

update it to SP8. I have downloaded the stack 8.

I know JSPM is used to apply the stack. According to the documentation i

have,all the files have to be placed in the usr/sap/trans/EPS/in and then

applied.

But do these SCA files need to be extracted with sAPCAR like the kernel SAR

files?

What steps need to be done before starting JSPM and what steps after?

Can someone throw some light?

So, I just have to put all the .SAR, .SCA and .JAR files in the /usr/sap/trans/EPS/in directory and start JSM?

Any other considerations for this?

Thanks for yur earlier answer.

Hi Cyrus,

No other considerations. Just place them in EPS\in as

stated by Costas. Login as <sid>adm and run go.bat from

.../j2ee/JSPM/ folder. It shows the list where you

select the target SP level for the component. Its

recommended to update <i>only jspm</i> first and restart it and then the other components.

Hi Cyrus,

No, you do not have to extract the sca files. Just put them under usr/sap/trans/EPS/in. Also the kernel files sapexe_.....sar and sapexedb_.....sar should not be extracted.

Regarding JSPM check the central note 891983 which has links to the documentation and other usefull notes

Hope I help you with this info,

Costas
