Hi Everyone,
Can anyone help me on updating my SAPOSCOL and how to find the correct updates in terms of kernel level. I was given the following option my the service marketplace and I don't know what should I choose.
SAP KERNEL 7.20 64-BIT
SAP KERNEL 7.20 64-BIT UNICODE
SAP KERNEL 7.20 EXT 64-BIT
SAP KERNEL 7.20 EXT 64-BIT UC
SAP KERNEL 7.21 64-BIT
SAP KERNEL 7.21 64-BIT UNICODE
SAP KERNEL 7.21 EXT 64-BIT
SAP KERNEL 7.21 EXT 64-BIT UC
I have a Window 64 bits OS, I'm having difficulty understanding the
difference between 64-BIT UNICODE, EXT 64-BIT and EXT 64-BIT UC.
Hi Michael,
With reagrds to your query.
64-BIT UNICODE, EXT - Non-unicode
64-BIT and EXT 64-BIT UC. - Unicode
Please login to your server and as it's windows please open run prompt and type disp+work or you can also login to sap \system \ status up there it will should you whether you system is unicode or not
If it states Unicode System (YES) then it is unicode, click on arrow showing right and will show you the exact release of your kernel and version.
Depends on that you can download saposcol as per your requirement.
Hope it helps.

Deepanshu Sharma

Thansk for input Michael,
Yes you are on Windows, 701 release, Unicode, With Patch 111 (kernel release). Yes you can folllow the note and do the upgrade.
Also you can try upgrading the kernel if you want.
Please make sure that you do the kernel upgrade starting from Sandbox, DEV, QAS, (Pre-prod If you have) and then on approval in PRD.
Always keep your kernel level n-1 (as suggested).
Hope this resolves your issue.
Regards,
Deepanshu Sharma
Thanks Sharma
And yes I will update the kernel also, But since our solution manager does not have any Sandbox I think I will be force to update the kernel directly to our live solution manager. Would you know what should I backup before I upgrade my kernel.
And also what do you mean by "Always keep your kernel level n-1"
Regards,
Mike
