Solution manager maintenance optimizer

[chris_mckay2]

Hi all,

I have what I think is an issue, and hoping someone could possibly point me in the direction to correct. I have setup our solution manager system and trying to get the maintenance optimizer option working fully. I have a java system that I pull the information from SLD perfectly fine, and it lists all installed software components via SMSY>SYSTEMS perfectly. I have assigned logical components etc. I can create a new maintenance optimizer transaction, select the proper system with assigned components, but when it lists the files to be downloaded automatically I expect to see alot more files available for download than it lists for me. I assume I am missing something, but not sure where to look.

Would anyone be able to possibly point me in the right direction on what I might be missing?

Regards,

Chris

Hi Markus,

The system is SAP EHP1 for SAP Netweaver 7.0. It has the following components installed and specified in logical components:

Along with the kernel files I also get the following files available for download via maintenance optimizer (6 in total)

I expect to see more than the 6 previously mentioned files available for download, also the option for EHP2 which I know is available, or am I wrong in expecting this.

Ok

The latest SP/Stack is 7.01 SP6 - you already have that installed. You see only the few packages since those are the only available to update. There's not yet an SP7 available nor is there an EHP2. EHP2 is going to RampUp soon but it's not available.

--> your system is already on the latest available patch level

Thanks again Markus. My issue was that I did not know what to expect to see, and also as Nibu mentioned I was not seeing anything wrong at all. It looks to be setup correctly.

Honestly I was expecting a more manual view of the downloads, and did not think that it would exclude software components that were already installed.

Thank-you again for the information.

> Honestly I was expecting a more manual view of the downloads, and did not think that it would exclude software components that were already installed.

If you choose "automatic" the determination is done automatically. If you want the manual thing then you can select "manual" at the beginning of the MOPZ task.

Well, since we don't know

- what system you're trying to patch (is it a Portal or what is it?)

- what you see in MOPZ

- what you expect to see

we can't help you.

Hi chris,

You will see all the files in the download basket(that includes the files you added to download basket earlier too) . But you need to select only thise files that you want right now. It is not an issue anyway .

Regards,

NIbu Antony

[chris_mckay2]

Hi Nibu,

When I check the download basket contents I see the same number of files that the maintenance optimizer reported would be there. There dosen't look to be different files available to be downloaded.

[Nibu]

Chris,

So where the issue is ? Are these files cannot be approved or what ?

Regards,

Nibu Antony
