BRTOOLS not getting uncar and compatibility with OS security patch

77 Views

Hello,

Our OS team upgraded the linux security patch on our SAP linux box from 2.6.32.59-0.7-default to 2.6.32.59-0.9-default

Linux version::

***********************************************************************************

/etc/lsb-release

::::::::::::::

LSB_VERSION="core-2.0-noarch:core-3.2-noarch:core-4.0-noarch:core-2.0-x86_64:core-3.2-x86_64:core-4.0-x86_64"

::::::::::::::

/etc/SuSE-release

::::::::::::::

SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64)

VERSION = 11

PATCHLEVEL = 1

*******************************************************************************************

After this we started facing issues while starting SAP on it:

1. SAP was not starting with below error :

When i was getting above error the SAP KERNEL version was 64 BIT 720 PATCH 300

2.For error in point 1, I thought it could be that sap kernel got corrupted while OS team tried upgrading linux security patches so tried re-installing the SAP kernel 64 BIT 720 PATCH 300 , but after uncar SAPEXEDB_300-10007263.SAR and SAPEXE_300-10007264.SAR I could not get BR* files in exe dir .

3. Then I tried upgrading the kernel to 64 BIT 720 PATCH 402,again after uncar SAPEXEDB_402-10007263.SAR and SAPEXE_402-10007264.SAR and I could not get BR* files in exe dir and SAP started.

4. I had to manually install BRTOOLS using DBATL720O10_37-10007263.SAR

I wanted to check if this an expected behavior for SAP that BR* files will not get extracted after Linux security patch gets upgraded from 2.6.32.59-0.7-default to 2.6.32.59-0.9-default

Thanks
