Answer 1

Hi Thom,
Here is a time table for applying SPS from 13 to 15
1.) Make a database backup
2.) Stop CI und DB. Then change the kernel. Start DB and CI
3.) Apply latest SPAM/SAINT patch
4.) Apply OSS Note 1075012 before continue
5.) Apply SP13
6.) SAINT upgrade to ST-SER 700_2008_1
7.) Apply SP14 and 15
8.) Finally apply OSS Note 1128026
9.) If needed apply Java Stack 15 via JSPM on OS level
Remarks:
If you are starting from SP12 then you first have to apply OSS Note 1042866. Direct after do an upgrade via SAINT to ST-SER 700_2007_1. Afterwards apply SP12 via SPAM and continue at topic 1.).
Before starting you should set dynamically the profile parameter rdisp/max_wprun_time to 3000 seconds via transaction RZ11. Make sure you have always 2.5GB free space in directory /usr/sap/trans.
