How to apply kernel patch in 7.00

[former_member192334]

Hello

Anybody knows how can I apply path for kernel 7.00?

Using the same way as 6.40 is enough?

Anyway, if I have a DW.SAR I can do an APYR3FIX and then APYR3KRN...

..but..

.. in case of SAPEXE.SAR and SAPEXEDB.SAR how shoud I do??

Thanks and regards

Hi Javier,

I have to apologize that we are slower with the description than with the delivery of the stack kernel. Very soon you will find the following description almost identically in note 912575:

Download SAPEXE.SAR and SAPEXEDB.SAR into your file system, directory <dir>.

Create a file <parts> in <dir> with the following content:

SAPEXE.SAR,
SAPEXEDB.SAR,

Logon as SIDADM or SIDOFR and run the following command:

LODSAPKRN DEV(*STMF)
              MNTPNT('<dir>')
              KRNLIB(<kernel library>)
              USERDEF(*YES)
              LIST('<dir>/<parts>')

If you run your system with IGS follow instructions of note 937000 to redeploy IGS into the new kernel. If you miss that, your system will not come up.

Run RMVSAP and APYSAP for the new kernel library.

HTH,

I noted that...

during upgrade SAPup ask for 2 libraries kernel, first one,and final one.

for the first one we choose R3700OPT

for the final one we choose R3700NEW

DESOFR contains as R3700NEW as library kernel , but comands APYSAP and RMVSAP are in R3700OPT...

Any idea?

Hi Javier,

If you provide the DVD number and your codepage (ASCII/Unicode) I will check if there is something wrong with the kernel. If this is not the case - which I am pretty sure about - something is very funny with your system.

You then better load and apply the stack kernel with tools from R3700OPT.

will explain what I done by the moment:

- Stop sap

- LODSAPKRN DEV(*STMF)

MNTPNT('<dir>')

KRNLIB(<kernel library>)

USERDEF(*YES)

LIST('<dir>/<parts>')

This ended sucessfully but with a little error/warning looking in job log.

RMVSAP couldn't be executed, because is not in current library kernel, but in library kernel during upgrade (DES700OPT)

So, I tried DES700OPT/RMVSAP SID(DES) , unsucessfully, because library is needed in library list. After addlible, worked ok.

Then I tried DES700OPT/APYSAP TYPE(*KERNEL) SID(DES) DSTLIB(DES700NEW), but get errors:

Then if I try

[former_member192334]

CD Kernel

********+

SAP NETWEAVER 2004S SR1

Kernel 7.00

AIX 64bit

OS/400

Number 51031792

^*************+

Codepage ASCII

thanks

Hi Javier,

Checked the kernel on DVD 51031792, directory KN_OS400_PPC64 - contains RMVSAP and APYSAP: Something is not right with your kernel R3700NEW.

Also there was a bunch of patches for APYSAP. Maybe you are just unlucky and need to patch APYSAP.

Hi,

I've a similar problem in new installation. Try to:

delete /usr/sap/trans/config/infoapar.release

It was owned by SAPINST user.

Check the *AUT in /usr/sap/trans/config directory.

Try again.
