How to make kernel update easier on cluster?

[former_member211576]

Hi experts,

we run Windows 2008 R2 cluster like this:

C:\usr\sap\TCP\ERS10\exe: ERS

S:\usr\sap\TCP\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64: centralized kernel(S: is a shared disk)

S:\usr\sap\TCP\ASCS00\exe: CS

and I found I have to update these paths manually to keep all kernel up-to-date and sometimes DI even failed to start because version is inconsistent.

How do I write start-up profile and use sapcpe.exe to let SAP automatically synchronize kernel for me?

for example, I update in S:\usr\sap\TCP\SYS\exe\uc\NTAMD64 and restart ERS, CS, DI and all kernels will be up-to-date.

And no "FILE is in use" warnings any more. It is really strange. I close sapmmc, disable all SAP services and copy/overwrite kernel files..but the warning message persists. I have to restart OS from time to time. How do I know which dynamic library(.dll) are not closed complete.

as you not mentioned the SAP version you are using. Check Note 144031 - Additions upgrade MSCS

Hi Sunil,

That is a very old note. I need a automatically synchronized process. I use Windows 2008 R2, SQL server 2008 R2, ERP 6.0, kernel 7.00 patch 306.
