Hello,
We have been asked to help in applying support packs accross our SAP enviornment. We are currently running
ECC, BI, SRM, PI/XI, solman (and portals, but thats just Java).
I have in the past implemented support packs, however, its been a while. I took a look at the systems to see whats in SPAM (current release), and
have found a TON of components listed there:
i.e. in our ECC6 system, they have, SAP_ABA, SAP_BASIS, SAP_BW, SAP_AP, SAP_APPL (which I belive are the ones we need)... they also have a lot of
components listed (such as: EA-IPPE, EA-FINSERV, EA-PS, IS-M, IS-OIL, LSOFE, and so on... the list goes on (about 40 components). Some components (such
as SAP_BW are listed in SPAM... even though its a ECC6 system (not bi).
My questions are:
1. Is there a way that I could determine what we acctually need?
2. What are the minimum components we need to update?
3. Do we also update SAP_BI in ECC, or XI (these are listed in spam)?
4. Are there any dependancies? i.e. should we update j2ee w/ any support stacks we update? or are there any components that
need to be updated (I know we do spam/saint), but Im still not able to find a step by step guide...
This will be the first time we run this since our upgraid, so any tips and help would be appriciated.
Thank you everyone!
Richard
