Dear Experts,
I have a little weird situation here and I'd kindly like to ask for your help and advice.
There is a NetWeaver 7.4 system at SPS10, which suprisingly is dual stack!
Now I need to apply SPS12 to it and the result is weird:
While on the ABAP stack everything seems to be OK, there is a strange situation
with Java. Just 5 components are showing version 7.40.12:
All the other components, down to the bottom are 7.40.11. Now the question is,
whether this is normal behaviour and MOPZ is checking compatibility and only
SP11 of those components is released and compatible with SPS12 ABAP, or
there is something wrong with the Solution Manager and MOPZ is calculating
nonsense ?
I also did an experimental MOPZ transaction to SPS14 and it calculates those
5 listed components as SPS13 and all the others as SPS12.
The only problem I could think of, was the CIM content and it's pretty old, from
april 2015, but I am not allowed to update it (yet).
Please kindly advise on how to proceed!
Just in case, I downloaded SP12 for all the other components and I am ready
to patch the system once again, but, as I said, my question is, whether this is
really needed and SPS12 really means having all the components at SP12, or
MOPZ knows what it's doing and if it calculates SP11, then this has been tested
by SAP and is guaranteed to run without issues.
Many thanks in advance!
Hi Symon, the BI-xy components are kind of a separate package (BI-JAVA) and might be of a different SP level than the rest of JAVA. According to note "1645590 - Java/Server SPs dependencies (and SupportDeskTool)" BI JAVA SP Level might be maximum of two levels higher than AS JAVA.
You are probably aware that SAP has started to fool us with AS JAVA version numbers. Currently SAP is leaving out every second AS JAVA SP.
This is real fun :
So this might be correct when applying SP12:
AS ABAP SP12 + AS JAVA SP11 + BI-JAVA SP12
But I would never dare to give you a guarantee for this .
Good luck,
Lutz

Dear Symon,
This is not weird as SAP is providing SP 11 for SPS 12 stack but your BI* component will be on 12 as per the stack calculation.
So your implementation is correct.
You can check the sapnote 1645590 suggested by Lutz Rottman.
