Solved: SAP Security Note 1487730

Former Member · ‎10-21-2010

Last week we saw SAP releasing its SAP Security Notes as per its SAP Security Patch Day Practice .

One of thenotes released was related to a BUG FIX in a Kernel as per note 1487730

Now the issue goes this way .

We are on Kernel 7.01 SP Level 79.

According to the NOTE we need to be atleast on SP Level 103 .

When I check out at Marketplace I can only Find SP Level 111 which is the latest and released on 14.10.2010 ie. 2 days after the NOTER was released .

Apprantely we follow a Thumbs Rule here to Implement the Kernel which is lower than the latest Kernel .

The issue is I cant find Kernel SP Level 103 .

Is it safe to go for SP Level 111 .

Our Database is ORACLE 10.2.0.4

OS PLatform :- Solaris Sparc 64- Bit NON UNICODE

Hi Ashish,

Generally the rule of N - 1 is followed for SAP Application patches and not for kernel.

You can go for latest kernel, it will not be any problem.
