Difference Between two exe folders.

[former_member192421]

Hi Gurus,

I am new to this SAP world. Right now I am learning new things in SAP.

I have one doubt after installing NetWeaver 2004. I found two exe folder in the SAP directory.

1. usr\sap\<sid>\DVEBMGS00\exe

2. usr\sap\<sid>\sys\uc\...\exe

Can any one explain, what is the difference between this two?

Thanks in Advance.

Its a resonable question I think... one works as a "distribution center" and the other one is the one who actually house the active kernel. When a new kernel is dropped in usr\sap\<sid>\sys\exe\<uc/nuc> a copy of it is sent to usr\sap\<sid>\DVEBMGSXX\exe and to each of the instances usr\sap\<sid>\DXX\exe directories by SAPCPE (with a exception of heterogenous environments where instances must be updated manually)

Regards

Juan
